Chapter 289 The Bird Is Scheming

Everything was fine on the farm. Nancy sat on a stool and fed the creatures. Then she took the book and started reading again.

"Today I'll read you the story of the ugly duckling..."

The little creatures were sitting obediently on the futon in front of Nancy, holding their heads high and listening to Nancy carefully. Gage also nested in its den, which was a little small for it now.

Nancy decided to make a big one for it.

She also remembered the story of the ugly duckling. She closed the book with her hands on her chin and told the story herself.

"Once upon a time, a mother chicken carefully incubated her babies, and after a long time, the eggs hatched. The chicks were fluffy and yellow, with particularly bright and beautiful feathers."

"But one of them looked different from the other chicks. Its puffy feathers were gray. Its little beak was flat. Its body was larger than the other babies, and it didn't fit in with these chicks at all. Other chicks bullied it."

Nancy told the story seriously, and the little things listened to her carefully. Hill and the working staff who passed by the farm felt warm when they saw the scene.

Their young boss was so cute!

Hill took out his cell phone to take a picture of this scene. And then he sent the photo to Marcus.

Marcus was in a meeting at this time. He had gone to find Nancy in a hurry, so many things had not yet been dealt with. Besides, he hadn't come to work for a few days, so there were some problems with the company.

"Mr. Brook, because you canceled several meetings at the last moment, our partner lost 80 million dollars on the project. They asked you to give them an account."

At the meeting, the head of the project looked a bit angry, and the partner was taking advantage of the matter.

They just wanted to use this excuse to profit more from the project.

Marcus looked calm and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"Mr. Brook, the game development department..."

At this time, there was a noise outside the meeting room. A young man with red hair barked in. He was wearing gold chains on his neck and all kinds of rings on his fingers, as if to show off how rich he was.

"Mr. Smith, you can't go in!"

A few security guards were unable to stop the man. When he entered the meeting room, he swept around the people present and then looked boldly at Marcus, who was sitting in the main seat.

"Mr. Brook, you are finally back, we lost 80 million dollars on the project we worked with you. You have to give us an account for your unexplained departure. This is not a matter of losing just a few bucks or tens of bucks." Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Marcus glanced at the young man coldly, and the latter, who was smug, was a bit scared by the cold look.

"What are you looking at me like that for? I was just telling the truth. We are partners. It's your fault that you left without making any follow-up arrangements. There's nothing wrong with me coming to ask for an account. The Smith family doesn't want much. Just give us 3% more of the profits!"

The people in the meeting suddenly looked gloomy. They didn't know why the Smith family let such a naive man be in charge of the project. He knew nothing but kept lecturing. Now he dared to be so arrogant in front of so many people.

How dare he ask for 3% more of the profits? The Smith family were so humble when they begged to join the project, but now, they were becoming so cocky.

Marcus ordered coldly, "Drive him out."

Philip walked past Marcus and said coldly to the young man, "Mr. Smith, please leave the meeting room."

The young man was immediately angry, "What's wrong with you guys? Is this how you treat your guest? I'm the son of your partner. If you dare to kick me out, I'll tell my father to pull out of the investment!"

The stupid man had taken himself too seriously.

Philip waved his hands, and immediately, a bodyguard came up and took the yelling Mr. Smith out forcibly.

Philip looked at the security guards and said, "Go and get your punishment."

"Yes."

The guards bowed their heads in shame.

Then Philip returned to Marcus.

"We don't need partners like the Smith family for the project," said Marcus.s

The project manager nodded at once, but then he looked embarrassed. "But what about the investment?"

Marcus said coldly, "I'll pay for it."

The crowd was relieved, and they sneered at the young man.

The young man must be out of mind if he wanted to go against Marcus in terms of wealth.

The meeting continued, and Marcus sat straight throughout. His stern aura made the crowd have a sense of oppression, and the people present were more dedicated when reporting on their work.

Marcus's phone vibrated, but he ignored it. Seeing that it was a message from Hill, Marcus checked it.

Hill had been assigned to stay with Nancy, so he would only send Marcus messages about Nancy.

Then Marcus saw that picture. His tightly pursed lips slightly tilted upward. Even Marcus himself didn't notice that his cold aura was less terrible.

The people present were also aware of it, and they immediately reported on their work in high spirits.

While Marcus was in a good mood, he wouldn't be so harsh even if they made some mistakes.

Everyone had already known what had happened. Only one person could make Marcus smile and lighten his mood, and that was Nancy.

They missed Nancy so much.

Mr. Smith, who was expelled from the company, cursed, "What a stupid company? Don't they have any rules? I thought their president was powerful. But I still got him. He must have been so shameful and angry that he drove me out. When I get 3% more of the profits, the old man must look at me with new eyes!"

Mr. Smith was still daydreaming, not knowing that he had gotten his father in trouble.

Soon after he was kicked out of the company, his father called him.

Mr. Smith happily picked up the phone and called out to his dad. However, what greeted him was his father's rant.

"What have you done? Get your ass back!"

Mr. Smith was so angry. He had just received the news that Marcus had canceled the cooperation with the Smith family on the project of the game city. He asked what was going on and learned that his son did something stupid to anger Marcus. At that moment, he really wanted to strangle his son.

The Smith family got good luck and became rich for working in the right realm, so they were kind of an upstart. It had taken them great efforts to strive to cooperate with Marcus, so Mr. Smith had always been cautious. But look what his son had done!

Mr. Smith regretted that he had let his son take charge of the project.

His wife had been bragging about how excellent and able her son was and suggested that he should be given a chance to practice. Mr. Smith believed his wife. After all, he was always busy and knew little about his son. Besides, he knew that his son did well in academic performance and graduated from a well-known university.

Thinking that his son would be the heir of the Smith family, Mr. Smith agreed to let his son take charge of the project. But Mr. Smith didn't expect that his son would cause him such trouble.
