Chapter 61 The Kind, Loving Uncle Is Back
In Odello Corp.’s meeting room, Matthew had called an emergency meeting, summoning the corporation’s executives. He announced the good news of the partnership between Drakon Real Estate, a company under Odello Corp, and Sky Loft.“Thanks to Ms. Neve Odell’s persistent efforts, she finally managed to score Sky Loft’s sales agency authorization!“What’s this? It’s a miracle! Sky Loft has its own sales company, but it’s authorizing Drakon to sell its property. What is this if not a miracle? This is the first miracle that Ms. Neve Odell has worked after entering Odello Corp. based on her own capabilities. We should—”Matthew was about to encourage the occupants in the room to learn from Neve when the latter called him. Matthew thought that she must have just signed the agreement, so he answered the call and put it on speaker with the intention to boast.“Hello, Ms. Neve. You—”“Daddy, it’s true that Jade got the sales. The agreement is also real, but they shredded it when I came for t

Chapter 62 The Price of Having a Foul Mouth
Jade had not taken Javier seriously when the latter had speculated that Matthew might have a favor to ask her. It was not until now when Matthew implicitly told her that Neve had ruined the project with Sky Loft, that she realized Javier had guessed correctly.Recalling how insolent Neve had been in the office previously, Jade felt fury brew within her. She looked at Neve. “Good job, that’s really something. The agreement was signed, yet you still ruined it. You even sent the letter back for them to shred it. I have to say…well done!“I can’t compare to your capabilities—no regular person could. You’re fantastic!”Jade’s ridicule put a scowl on Neve’s face while she fumed inwardly. She could not help retorting, “Of course, I’m not like you. Who knows if you got the deal with Sky Loft by spreading your legs?”Jade’s blood boiled when she heard the insult. Before she could say anything, though, Matthew berated Neve.“What are you talking about? You’re a girl, yet you keep making up

Chapter 63 Things Go Wrong for a Reason
Jade went to Odello’s headquarters after leaving Sky Loft. Holding the agreement in her hands, she stepped into Matthew’s office and slammed it onto his desk.She then turned to Neve, who was seated on the couch with one side of her face swollen.“Vice GM Odell, I’m here with another agreement. Do you want to show your extraordinary competence?”Gripping the ice she was using to cool her burning cheek, Neve wanted so much to crash it against Jade’s head.Matthew quickly spoke up with a chortle, “Nothing like that. I told you, it was a misunderstanding. Jade, don’t mind this. The deal with Sky Loft is all yours, so you’ll handle it. No one else, just you!”Taking a glance at Matthew, who was bowing down to her, and Neve, who was inwardly fuming nearby, Jade giggled and turned to leave with as much flair as she could, something she had not dared even thought of doing in the past.After Jade left, Neve threw the ice she was holding on the floor.“Look at how much that b*tch is gloa

Chapter 64 I’m Manager Odell
”Due to the sales performance of Ms. Jade Odell, GM of Drakon Real Estates, or lack thereof, I propose that our vice GM, Ms. Neve Odell, take over the sales…”Matthew brought up Drakon’s zero sales regarding Sky Loft’s project during Odello Corp.’s monthly meeting and followed up with the suggestion that Neve take over.Even though others could see that he was stripping Jade of her power, no one was able to say anything. After all, it was a fact that the project had made zero sales under Jade’s leadership, which was a hard hit. In Drakon’s entire history since its establishment, it had never had a precedent of making no sales for a week.No one objected to the proposal, so Jade could only accept it despite her reluctance. After the meeting, while she was getting up to leave, Neve cornered her. When everyone else left, Neve looked at her tauntingly. “Weren’t you so proud before? Of what? You’ve been open for sale for one week, but the sales have stayed at zero. Are you still proud? A

Chapter 65 The Company Seniors Who Came for Blood
In the cafe, Jade put down her coffee and pushed her laptop toward Javier.“Take a look. These are the comments I found online regarding our sales office.“You wouldn’t believe it unless you saw it. As sales reps, how dare they treat customers with that kind of attitude…”Jade was furious. She could understand competition in business, and Neve could go all out if she wanted to take revenge on her, but they were doing this for the corporation at the end of the day. They were trying to make profit for the company. How could this be turned into an attack as well?Javier glanced at the comments and articles Jade had pulled up. They were more or less similar to his earlier experience in the sales office. He retrieved a copy of a video clip and played it on the laptop, angling the screen toward Jade this time.“I think you’ll get the first-hand answers after watching this.”Jade was infuriated when she watched the clip, especially after hearing the salesgirl slander her by saying that

Chapter 66 The Old B*stard Who Intends to Take Over the Company
When John Odell, the chairman of Odello Corp, was first attacked by his illness, he had lost consciousness after being hospitalized. Therefore, Matthew had endorsed himself as the vice general manager of the company, wanting to take charge on the basis that he wanted to “ensure that the company’s operations remained stable.” The people who had agreed to this motion of his were of course the elders of the company, with Victor as their leader. Thus, they had “absolute control” over this temporary person in charge. Both Matthew and Neve immediately realized that something was wrong when they heard the dangerous words Victor had just said. However, both father and daughter still held out some hope that Victor would not make that choice. Matthew believed he was definitely going to be the chairman in the future, so Victor and the other elders would not gain anything if they were too hostile to Matthew. However, the reality of the situation exceeded his expectations, as Victor v

Chapter 67 Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Odell Version
John Odell had disappeared, leaving behind a letter he had personally written, which was also a will. In it, he stated that he was about to leave the world, so he was not going to interfere with any superficial matters. Instead, he would like to travel to his ancestor’s hometown and enjoy the beautiful scenery. He wanted to be buried there, so his family did not have to search for him. Although the will specifically mention that he did not want to be found, the Odells still used their connections to try searching for Mr. John to no avail. Meanwhile, John Odell’s disappearance was also a huge blow for Odello Corp. Victor, who was the leader of the five-man group, now held the most power in his hands. Meanwhile, Matthew, whose power had been stripped away by Victor, could no longer be bothered with the battle against Jade. All he wanted to do at the moment was regain the authority Victor held. Thus, the internal management of Odello Corp. underwent a huge change battle-wise, turn

Chapter 68 Who Did You Say Has Brought in a Foreign Invader?
Zayn was sitting in the host’s chair inside a restaurant’s private room that afternoon, while Matthew and Neve were sitting next to him. Zayn made a suggestion. “As Mr. John’s biological granddaughter, Jade should have the right to inherit his shares if his death is confirmed. Therefore, we must coerce her into joining us and being our ally.“On top of that, she’s a member of the Odell family as well, and now’s the time for your family to work in harmony together to overthrow Victor. This way, you’ll be able to take control of Odello Corp. the moment Victor gets eliminated. Meanwhile, I’ll get to marry Jade, so it’s a win-win situation.”Matthew thought that Zayn’s suggestion was a perfectly sound one and immediately promised Zayn that he would do his best to gain Jade’s favor and make her one of their allies. While they were having this discussion, Matthew received a call from his secretary, who told him that the company had called an emergency meeting that afternoon. “F*ck th

Chapter 69 Everyone Will Be Trying to Make Themselves Look Good
Javier met up with Odello Corp.’s “most loyal servant” in Victor’s office. “There are rumors being spread outside that you’re Jade’s close confidant and you’re both living under the same roof. Is that true?”Javier merely looked at Victor silently upon being questioned, wanting to see what Victor was playing at. However, Victor obviously did not need Javier to answer. He went on to say, “Don’t worry, I’ve never been one to look into someone’s family background. What I’m more concerned about is how capable they are and how ambitious. The way I see it, you’re not too bad yourself…”After saying that, Victor once again expressed his dissatisfaction with Zayn and how much he admired Javier. “I’ve been watching Jade grow up since she was a child as the previous chairman’s old partner, so I look at her as my own granddaughter. I would never allow her to be with Zayn Dunham, who’s obviously a wolf disguised in sheep’s clothing. I hope that her future companion is a young man as decent

Chapter 70 A Dream Come True
Javier had already expected long ago that Zayn would go after Jade’s 26% share, so he was not going to allow Jade to leave empty-handed. On top of that, this would make Zayn break character, which was why he had been waiting for this event to begin for a very long time. When Jade saw Zayn’s flattering expression, she could not help but want to vomit. However, before she could even reject his offer, Zayn had already snapped his fingers at the person in charge of the exhibition. The man rushed over to Zayn’s side and flatteringly said, “How may I assist you, Mr. Dunham?”“The yellow diamond necklace that Kate Winslet wore in the past looks pretty nice. Bring it over for me!”Perhaps afraid that the surrounding crowd did not know how valuable the necklace was, Zayn deliberately added, “I’m talking about the necklace that’s worth 1.7 million dollars.”The person in charge nodded his head and walked away, very quickly returning with a beautiful model on a tray. It was undeniabl
