"Dad, what’s up?" Sophie Wilson asked curiously.
"Nothing. Sophie, I need to go run so errands." Mason Wilson said.
"Okay!" Sophie cheerfully replied, obediently adding, "Thanks for your hard work, Dad. Goodbye."
"Goodbye." Mason Wilson didn’t quite know how to feel as he said goodbye to his daughter. After hanging up, he looked at Jim Perry with a complicated expression.
The office was quite quiet. Earlier, because they needed to ask about Charles Seymour’s business, Mason Wilson had it on speakerphone, so Jim Perry naturally heard the whole thing.
Seeing Mason Wilson’s reaction, Jim Perry smiled slightly and reassured him, "President Wilson, you’ll get used to it."
Get used to it?
Mason Wilson was shocked!
"In our boss’s mind, the whole Peace Group isn’t as important as Miss Wilson." Jim Perry said with a smile. He had long since gotten used to it.
Mason Wilson pressed his chest and said bitterly, "As Sophie’s father, I’m very gratified, but... I still think my son-in-law has a significant potential as a foolish ruler."
Jim Perry corrected Mason Wilson, "Our boss doesn’t have the potential, he is one."
Mason Wilson: "..."
His head, it’s a bit aching.
Seeing Mason Wilson massage his forehead, Jim Perry couldn’t help but laugh, reassuring him, "Don’t worry. Even if the boss ends up playing away the whole Peace Group, he wouldn’t feel anything about it."
"After all, the existence of Peace Group is because of the boss’s wife."
Mason Wilson: "..."
Not comforted at all, right?
His head hurt even more.
For the first ti, he felt that his daughter was a troubleso beauty, but... he still thought his daughter was the best.
His daughter is so good, why shouldn’t his son-in-law spoil her, right?
Yes, that’s it.
Mason Wilson quickly revived his spirits, buckled down: "Yes, so we need to work hard."
"I’ve just gone through all of these earlier, these are for you, and the few projects we talked about last ti, let’s catch up on them later..." Mason Wilson rattled off a lot of follow-up tasks, leaving Jim Perry a bit stunned.
Seeing Mason Wilson showing no signs of pausing, Jim Perry had to interrupt him, "Um... President Wilson, can I ask a question?"
"Go ahead." Mason Wilson smiled warmly.
"Since the boss is skipping work to please the boss’s wife, why has our workload increased instead?" Jim Perry asked curiously.
"Precisely because the boss is skipping work, we need to manage the company well. We absolutely can’t let the company’s operations suffer because the boss is skipping work." Mason Wilson said sternly, "We absolutely can’t let people think that the boss is neglecting his work because of his wife."
"We absolutely cannot let the company have any issues, so we must work twice as hard." Mason Wilson’s words reached Jim Perry’s ears, and he instinctively broke down and reorganized the words, grasping the underlying essence beneath the surface.
"President Wilson, can I understand your words this way?" Jim Perry cautiously asked, "To prevent outsiders from thinking Sophie Wilson is... well... So, as the royal father-in-law, you are to hold down the fort for the boss?"
Mason Wilson nodded with a smile, "If that’s how you want to understand it, that’s fine too."
Jim Perry: "..."
"However, President Perry, I think as senior executives of the company, it’s our duty to work hard for the company, don’t you think? Everything is for the company." Mason Wilson said earnestly, smiling with the benevolence of Buddha rton.
