Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband Chapter 705

Chapter 705 Shirley Was Pressured While the couple hugged each other, Veronica tried her best not to fall asleep. However, being with Matthew put her at extreme ease. Coupled with more than three hours of intense exercise earlier, she couldn’t help but feel drowsy, so she eventually fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, the warm sunshine shone into her room through the windows. Veronica rubbed her eyes in a daze and suddenly recalled something. The moment she opened her eyes and glanced beside her, he was no longer there. She reached out and felt a pinch of coldness as she touched the empty bed beside her. He must have left long ago. Hugging the blanket, she fell into a trance as if recalling the beautiful time they had spent together last night.

…

Meanwhile, in Bloomstead, Shirley, Jayden, and Shawn were having a meeting in the Vincere Games meeting room.

Jayden and Shawn were partners of Vincere Games, of which Jayden held 35% of the company’s shares, Shawn had 10%, and Veronica owned the majority. Since Veronica handed the company affairs to Shirley, the two were dissatisfied and wanted to cause trouble for her. During the meeting, they mentioned the issue of sponsor recruitment. The two men looked at each other and exchanged ideas secretly.

Shawn closed the folder in his hand and twisted a black pen in his hand while uttering to Shirley, “The company’s contract with the previous partner has expired, and our team’s popularity has also increased. We need to recruit new sponsors. Since the team is preparing for the national fall competition, Jayden and I will have to lead the team for training, so we’ll leave the sponsorship up to you.”

“Yeah. The national fall competition is an important event. If we can win the game, we’ll move on to participate in the international event.” Jayden nodded as his gaze fell on Shirley when he uttered seriously.

It had been half a year since Shirley joined the Vincere Games. She worked actively and earnestly every day in order to integrate into the company as soon as possible. Still, these people thought she wasn’t knowledgeable about games, so they treated her with contempt.

“Okay, no problem.” She nodded slightly. “Any ideas on which companies to look for?”

“Spinfluence Group, Horizon Group, and Cyberten Holdings. These three companies are the most powerful companies at present. If we can obtain sponsorship from any of them. In that case, we will be able to complete the company’s annual performance ahead of schedule the following year.”

Jayden tapped on the table lightly with a pen, assuming the posture of a superior.

When Shirley came to the company, Veronica had made it clear that Shirley was taking over her position. Still, no one was willing to obey a young lady.

Regarding Jayden’s arrogant attitude, Shirley’s displeasure did not show on her face. No one in the workplace sympathized with the weak, and only by showing an impressive performance could one prove one’s strength.

“Okay. I’ll try my best.” She nodded.

“Try your best?”

Shawn frowned with dissatisfaction written all over his face. “We want you to make sure you get the sponsorship. Think about it. Have you ever achieved anything after joining the company? Why do we need you if you can’t even settle such a small matter?!”

Even Jayden, who was sitting beside him, shook his head. “I don’t understand why Veronica let you, a layman, take care of the company. Is she treating us like fools? We work overtime and dedicate ourselves to the company, but she earns what we work for. What the hell?”

“Hmph. Is that even a question? She does treat us all like fools!” Shawn snorted.

The two had suppressed their dissatisfaction with Shirley at first, but now that their emotions had erupted, they criticized Veronica in front of Shirley, which made her furious.

Frowning, she felt the heat creeping up her face. Glaring at the two with piercing eyes, she grunted, “You two…”

She wanted to refute them by raising her voice but suddenly recalled what Veronica had taught her.
