515: Chapter 514: So, you agreed?
“President Ashton, the clothes have been bought.” Cody Aberton lowered his head, even lower, a completely sullen and spineless look as if wishing to burrow into the ground to hide himself.
“Mm.” Ashton Heath lightly tapped his fingers on the table, “Put them down and leave.”
“Yes, sir.”
Cody hurriedly put the clothing bags on a nearby sofa.
After setting them down, he turned and walked out.
He didn’t glance at Ashton Heath again.
Just as he reached the door.
“Wait, co back.”
His body stiffened, and he slowly turned around: “President Ashton, do you have any other instructions?”
“Cancel the engagent at noon and reschedule it for another ti.
Also, reserve a nice foreign cuisine restaurant.”
“Yes, President Ashton.”
Even without his instructions, Cody knew that he wouldn’t et clients today at noon.
Ms.
Joanna had arrived, so President Ashton would naturally want to accompany her.
Ms.
Joanna was much more important than any client or contract.
“There’s one more thing.” Ashton Heath squinted his deep eyes, sounding particularly manly with his hoarse and low voice, “Has the property transfer of Lawrence Villa been completed?
Hand the property deed.”
“President Ashton, about the Lawrence family…” Hearing him bring up this matter, Cody’s face changed slightly.
“What?” Ashton Heath’s eyes narrowed again, his tone a bit dangerous, “What’s taking so long, and you still haven’t settled this?
When did your work abilities beco so inferior?”
“No, no, President Ashton…”
Ashton Heath said it lightly, yet Cody felt fear in his heart.
Being questioned about his work abilities by the Boss ant what?
It was too frightening.
He hurriedly explained: “Benjamin Lawrence had initially agreed to transfer the property to us, but when I went to complete the procedures this morning, he suddenly backed out.
He said he would figure out a way to raise the money and asked us to give him another two days.”
“So, you agreed?”
The man’s voice was still light, but Cody beca more and more uneasy, his heartbeat jumping from 70 to 120: “He was insistent on not transferring the property, and we…
we couldn’t do anything.
After all, he…
he is Ms.
Joanna’s father.”
“We couldn’t use certain ans against him.”
If it were soone else, Cody wouldn’t have any scruples.
So long as he could achieve his goal, he wouldn’t hesitate to take whatever actions necessary, not fearing any disobedience from the other party.
But Benjamin Lawrence was an exception.
Even if Ms.
Joanna had a strained relationship with her father, he was still her biological father.
If they used the thods they usually employed against others on Benjamin, she would definitely not remain indifferent.
If this matter ended up affecting President Ashton and Ms.
Joanna’s relationship, that would be a great loss.
President Ashton wanted the Villa to give Ms.
Joanna a surprise.
Ashton Heath didn’t say anything, and after a while, he said in a low voice: “In any case, the Villa must be transferred to Joanna.
Since he’s still unwilling to sell, we can dangle more bait.
The Lawrence family’s company is already just a shell, it can’t bring out any money.
If he wants to raise money, he can only get it from his other daughter and the Su family, but those two might not be willing to give him the money.”
“Let him have a day, and when his hopes are dashed, he’ll be ready to sell the house in all honesty.”
“Yes, President Ashton.
I know what to do.”
“Oh, President Ashton…”
Cody suddenly rembered sothing, and his expression seed hesitant to speak.
“If you have sothing to say, just say it.” Ashton Heath looked impatiently, “If you don’t want to say it, then don’t.”
