327: Chapter 327: Take a Disciple 327: Chapter 327: Take a Disciple Yusuf Zuck sat in the café and after having another cup of coffee, he finally picked up his phone and called Mia in Hong Kong.
“I’m at work, my boss is lecturing…” Mia’s voice was very soft, now that she had truly returned to normal life, living it to the fullest.
“Mia, do a favor,” Yusuf thought for a mont and said, “I just ca clean to Ruth, and although she tried to persuade , I feel like she might be just pretending.”
“What confession?
Did you confess about us?” Mia suddenly scread without caring if her boss was lecturing her or not.
Before Yusuf could reply, he heard Mia arguing loudly on the phone, “What are you yelling at, why are you yelling at ?
What eting?
Granny here doesn’t want to attend it anymore, is that okay?
If you dare, fire then, if you can’t fire , you resign…” The girl had a complete ltdown, apparently thrown into chaos.
“Yusuf, hurry up and tell , did you ntion the thing between us?” The little girl seed to have stepped out of the conference room.
“No, it’s about and another woman, and that woman now…” Yusuf recounted Ember Vance’s situation.
“Damn, it wasn’t ?
You scared to death, I even cursed out our manager, why didn’t you say so sooner…” Mia started ranting again.
“Ruth is like that, strong in front of others but fragile behind closed doors.
She’s probably in the office crying now.
What’s wrong with you, always stirring up trouble with won, if you’re going to ss with soone, ss with .
I’m so pretty, so nice, why bother with others?
And now I have to clean up your ss!”
Yusuf fell silent, at a loss for words.
“Alright, enough, you were the one who asked to co north, and I really quit my job for this.
You can’t bla for not working later, right?
Don’t worry, Ruth really has deep feelings for you.
I’ll use so tactics first to win her over, then you can take care of us both together.”
“Yeah, you’re doing the right thing to save her, I like a man who’s honest and reliable, though you’re a bit too fickle.
In the future, if you have physical needs, co to , or if it really can’t be helped, I’ll get you a couple of ‘Flying Swords’ or whatever.
Seriously, n can’t even control their own desires.
Enough said, I’ll be in the capital by the afternoon, then we’ll see how you handle this!” The young woman cheerfully hung up the phone.
Yusuf had asked her to work, and she really did work, and now that Yusuf had asked her to co to the capital, she was listening to him again, since working was truly boring for her.
After hanging up on Mia, Yusuf took a deep breath.
Mia understood Ruth best; he believed that with Mia’s comforting, Ruth’s mood would improve sowhat, right?
After paying for the coffee, Yusuf stood up and walked out, while also calling Marlon Shepherd.
It rang seven or eight tis before Marlon picked up.
On picking up, he also complained about Yusuf wearing people out and asked what Yusuf needed this ti.
“Where are you?” Yusuf asked, puzzled.
“Hong Kong Airport, about to head back to the capital.
I’ve finished up business here!” Marlon replied.
“Finished?
What have you finished?
Have you finished negotiations with Alvin Petty?
How much was it?” Yusuf was a bit confused, Marlon went to Hong Kong to discuss the Petty Family’s acquisition, how could it be finished?
“What do you an, how much?
Don’t you know?
A gratuitous transfer of 49% of the shares to Tianyi Investnts, didn’t you talk with Alvin Petty before?” Marlon was also stunned, thinking that Yusuf had already arranged everything with Alvin Petty, so upon arriving in Hong Kong, he imdiately signed the agreent and proceeded with the handover tasks.
“Okay, I know now, so that ans there is no longer a board of directors or headquarters in Hong Kong, right?”
“Yep, we’ve already processed it internally at New Century, the headquarters is now Tianyi Investnts in the capital.
For future etings and such, going to Tianyi Investnts will do.” Tianyi Investnts was the investnt company that Marlon was setting up, now properly registered with the business authorities and renting temporary office space; everything was orderly, all thanks to Marlon and his team’s efforts.
“So, after I return to the capital, I just need to call the New Century Hotel’s high-level executives to the company to announce it, and there’s also the New Century Hotel under construction in Tianjin.
Half of the project is done now, and Alvin Petty ant that from now on, all the various funds involved are your responsibility.”
“After you return, don’t rush to make announcents.
First, represent at the New Century Hotel and show your face with so sort of inspection, then have talks with a few of the general managers!”
“Why’s that?” Marlon Shepherd asked, puzzled.
“In three days, replace the current general manager Herman Holloway with the deputy general manager Ruth Wilcox, making Ruth Wilcox the new general manager.
And rember, don’t ntion my na, don’t say I am the chairman.”
“What about Herman Holloway?” Marlon Shepherd asked, with a sense of oddity.
Yusuf Zuck cursed, “Let him go begging on the streets for all I care, what happens to him isn’t my problem!”
“Alright, I’ll follow your orders, boss.
I’ll handle it as I see fit.
Is there anything else?”
“That’s it for now.
I still haven’t heard anything about the trip to Australia, so you just deal with the matters at hand and await my call.”
“Oh, I forgot,” Marlon Shepherd suddenly rembered sothing and imdiately said, “The appointnt letters for the company or the New Century Hotel’s senior positions need the chairman’s signature and should be bilingual.
If you appoint, what’s her na, Ruth Wilcox, won’t that expose you as well?”
“What appointnt letter?” Yusuf Zuck frowned.
“Of course there needs to be one.
At most I can only be a legal consultant, your lawyer for Tianyi Investnt, the chairman of New Century Hotel.
So, I can only announce the appointnt docunt, which has to be shown to the concerned parties as well.
The company needs to have a record, and you really have to sign it!”
“Then let’s wait; there’s no hurry to promote Ruth Wilcox.” Yusuf Zuck felt an imnse headache.
He had just co clean with Ruth Wilcox, and if he were to make her a general manager now, she would definitely refuse, or even resign—and that was not what he wanted.
Therefore, he could only delay and find a solution that satisfies both sides later on.
“Fine, then I’m heading onto the plane,” Marlon Shepherd said and then hung up the call.
After hanging up with Marlon Shepherd, Yusuf Zuck made another call to Alvin Petty.
The Petty Family had just given away over a billion to him, what kind of a favor was that?
Even if he could help the Petty Family through a tough ti by committing a murder, the cost they were paying was enormous.
Once the call connected, Alvin Petty laughed heartily on the other end.
He obviously expected Yusuf Zuck would call.
“Elder Brother, I said it was a purchase, not a giveaway, so this won’t work.
You send your family’s bank account, and I’ll transfer ten billion to you.
That’s all I can offer, and I’ve taken note of the favor.
If your Petty Family ever needs anything, I, Yusuf Zuck, won’t hesitate!”
“Don’t rush to transfer the money.
Our family isn’t in need of that bit of cash.
There’s a favor that the old man hopes you’ll agree to,” Alvin Petty said with a smile.
“Go ahead,” Yusuf Zuck nodded and said.
“My elder brother has been gone for several years now—you know this.
But he has a granddaughter who’s a promising martial arts talent.
The old man’s wish is for you to take her as your Disciple and teach her your skills.”
“Cough, cough, cough…” Upon hearing this, Yusuf Zuck began to cough violently.
What skills did he have?
The Petty Family really thought he was so unparalleled expert.
There was no helping it; in this vast world, there probably was no one who could wield the Flying Sword.
So if they could learn from him, it would be their fate.
At least that’s what the Petty Family believed.
Yusuf Zuck felt imdiately troubled.
To refuse would be to ignore the Petty Family’s relatively simple request, but if he agreed, what could he possibly teach?
