My Love, Enlighten me

Chapter 136 She Liked Opposing Him

Inside Sheng Ding Media building, Kenny Clarke returned to the office and called his secretary inside, “Call Mr. Cook here.”

Kenny Clarke had his own private elevator in the company. He came up directly from the parking lot. People who saw him along the way including the secretary were of high level staffs.

Senior staffs knew that he was the big boss of the Sheng Ding Media, but they didn’t know he was Kenny Clarke.

People who knew that he was Kenny Clarke and also the president of the Sheng Ding Media were only Si Chengyu, Fu Tingxi, and Carl Cook.

When Gloria Taylor left Jin Ding this morning, she should’ve met Carl Cook and Fu Tingxi.

Fu Tingxi was a very cautious and careful person because of his career.

It must be Carl Cook who failed to keep his mouth shut.

After a while, the secretary called back, “Mr. Cook’s general secretary said that he was on a temporary business trip. He’s already at the airport.”

Even if it was only a report via phone call, but Kenny Clarke’s silence greatly oppressed his secretary. His secretary’s voice was getting lower and lower.

Then, she heard Kenny Clarke sneered. She couldn’t help shuddering.

“Okay. Call Edith Hall.”

Kenny Clarke put the phone down and waited for Edith Hall to come.

Carl Cook’s tendency to run away after making a mistake had never changed.

Soon, Edith Hall came up.

She knocked at the door. She originally refused because she thought that it was Carl Cook who asked her to come. However, the secretary emphasized that it was not President Cook who called her, it was the big boss. Now, she wondered who the big boss of the Sheng Ding Media was.

She suspected that Carl Cook was just a part-time worker here.

“Come in.”

The deep voice was familiar.

Edith Hall pushed the door open and went in. her eyes widened when she saw Kenny Clarke.

“Kenny… Kenny Clarke?”

“Miss Hall.”

According to Gloria Taylor’s stories, Edith Hall had the impression that Kenny Clarke was a bad person.

She didn’t expect that he was the big boss.

Although his face was somewhat normal, but Edith Hall’s knees were weak. She made a 90 degree bow and greeted him formally, “Hello, Boss.”

Her voice echoed in the room.

Kenny Clarke raised his eyebrows. Edith Hall and Gloria Taylor’s character were different.

Gloria Taylor was afraid of him, but she hardly showed him such kindness. Gloria Taylor liked to oppose him.

“I have something to ask you.” Kenny Clarke said faintly.

Edith Hall was flattered. Gloria Taylor said that this man was hard to please, but he looked like he had a good temper.

“As long as I can do it, you can ask me anything.”

Kenny Clarke was very satisfied with her answer, “I can’t contact Carl Cook. Please call him for me and ask him where he is.”

That’s all?

Edith Hall thought that he was asking for a bigger deal.

Although she rarely contact him, but she still saved his number.

Carl Cook could be very pervasive.

He would send her money on her Alipay account out of blue. He would make a Weibo account and followed hers as a fan. Whenever her new movie came out, he would bought all the ticket of to fill the cinema packed.

Edith Hall called his number and it was off.

Then, she called the number he used before, the number he used when he was still a student until the incident happened that they were never connected anymore.

But, she was not sure that he was still using that number.

She dialed the number with only one ring, suddenly she could hear Carl Cook’s excited voice at the other end of the phone, “Edith Hall!”

Edith Hall acted like she didn’t hear the excitement in his voice, she directly asked, “Carl Cook, where are you?”

“I’m at the airport!”

The next moment, he suddenly asked, “What’s the matter, Edith?”

Over the years, Edith Hall had hardly contacted him voluntarily. He subconsciously felt that something must have happened that she suddenly called him.

“It’s nothing. Big boss said that he couldn’t find you. He asked me to help him call you.” Edith Hall said. Then, she told Kenny Clarke, “He said that he’s at the airport.”

Carl Cook cursed, “Damn it!”

Then, Kenny Clarke’s phone rang.

Kenny Clarke didn’t answer the phone in a hurry, he thanked Edith Hall first, “Thank you. You can go back to your work.”

Edith Hall was at the doorway when Kenny Clarke suddenly said, “I have seen your film. Out of all new recruits in the company, you have the most potential.”

Kenny Clarke was a cautious and careful person. He took his work very seriously. Carl Cook wanted to sign Edith Hall into Sheng Ding Media at the beginning. So, he watched some of her works.

Edith Hall had a great dedication toward her work. She had a great potential.

She was flattered, “I will do my best!”

Not long after Edith Hall left, Carl Cook returned.

He pushed the door open and rushed in. he was all sweaty, he came in running. His face was also very complicated.

He ran to the desk, “Where is Edith?”

“She left.”

Carl Cook was even more anxious, “Where did she go? What did you do to her?”

“What did I do? I just asked her to call you and she left.” Kenny Clarke said innocently.

“Damn it! You fooled me!” Carl Cook sat at his chair, “I’m scared to death!”

He knew Kenny Clarke for a long time. He knew how malicious Kenny Clarke was. When he heard that he asked Edith Hall to come over, he was so frightened that he rushed back.

Kenny Clarke looked at him blankly, “Spill it.”

“……”

Carl Cook finally gave in to his threats and told him everything about this morning.

He thought that Kenny Clarke wanted to beat him, but he didn’t. However, the aftermath was no better than beating him.

“You won’t have your vacation next year. You should work hard.” Kenny Clarke said, “Edith Hall is a rising artist. She cannot have a relationship with you. You’re single. You should work hard.”

“Break up, then.” Carl Cook was annoyed.

Kenny Clarke was not angry at all. He smiled, “Edith Hall has not gotten a new manager yet.”This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Carl Cook finally submit to the humiliation and said, “I, um… I’m willing to work well!”

“You can take Edith Hall.” Kenny Clarke smiled.

“You crafty old scoundrel!” Carl Cook muttered.

***

The Taylor Company held a public conference for Si Chengyu.

But, because Si Chengyu was too famous, the public conference was useless.

The Taylor Company couldn’t handle the pressure anymore.

The company’s downfall was obvious to everyone.

They couldn’t work the personal relation Grandpa Taylor had built before due to their reputation in the past few years.

Gloria Taylor found a chance to say to Loren Taylor, “Dad, what about we let grandpa return home?”
