Trial Of The Senses - Chapter 470 Threat
“Miss Jessie, please wait here for a moment. I’ll go in to inform.”
Jessie sat down on the sofa beside the front desk and saw the girl at the front desk walking to the depth of the company. After passing a corner, she stopped and knocked on the door.
That was Francis’s office.
About half a minute later, the receptionist came out. “Miss Jessie, Mr. Francis is free now. Please get in now.”
“Okay, thank you.” Jessie stood up from the sofa and was led to Francis’s office by the receptionist.
In the office, Francis was sitting alone on the sofa in the reception area. There were two cups of tea on the tea table in front of the sofa. No one knew if a guest had just left.
“Hello, Mr. Francis.”
“Don’t be too polite, Jessie. Come and have a seat.” Francis casually pointed to the seat opposite him. The receptionist brought a new teacup, poured tea for Jessie, and then left the office.
“Mr. Francis, really sorry to pay a visit without noticing in advance as I couldn’t get through to you yesterday. I have something urgent to ask you, so I came here directly.” Jessie explained her purpose.
Francis thought for a while because of the hangover. It seemed that Jessie did call him yesterday. “Oh, I remember. I’m so sorry, Jessie, there were too many things yesterday. I wanted to call you back when I saw your missed call. But I didn’t expect that it was delayed by something else. I’m really sorry. ”
“It doesn’t matter. You are in charge of such a big company. It’s normal for you to be busy.”
“What’s the matter?”
“I’m here for the gossip between you and Ashley.” Jessie replied.
‘The scandal between him and Ashley?’ Francis was a little confused. He had no idea of it at all. “What scandal?”
“The day before yesterday, you and Ashley met by chance when you two went to the prison to visit Sheila. As a result, someone took photos and sold to the media. Now the media is wildly saying that you have something to do with Ashley. This matter has a great impact on Ashley’s image. She has already explained the whole thing on Microblog, and you need to explain it personally. This will be more credible. ”
Francis was too busy these two days to pay attention to any news. In addition, he had been involved in scandals in recent months: he spent the night with this female star today and kissed another one tomorrow. Now he didn’t bother to pay attention to the gossip of the entertainment media. The people around him must have been accustomed to his gossip, so no one reminded him, so that he did not know about it at all.
Since it was related to the image of Ashley, it was not difficult to explain it on Microblog. When Francis was about to agree, the door of the office was knocked again.
“Come in.”
The door was opened, and it was still the little girl at the front desk. “Mr. Francis, there is a person who claims to be Jasper from the SS Group. He wants to see you.”
Jasper!
Francis was shocked. How come a person like Jasper debased himself to others’ company to pay a visit? “Is it really Jasper? Did you hear it wrong?”
“He said so.” The little girl’s face was flushed as she said. “He is very handsome, a type of masculine. I wonder if the Jasper you know is the same person as this one.”
The r
go now.”
“But…”
“Get out!”
Jessie was shocked again. Although she was not reconciled, it was obvious that he would not agree to her request. It was meaningless to stay any longer. She gritted her teeth, turned around and left Francis’s office.
To clarify the gossip, of course, the two sides had to clarify it together. Just by what Ashley said, it was impossible to convince the public. Without the help of Francis, she could only start from the media. The media rarely reported this kind of news. After a period of time, or when another news in the circle was released to attract the public’s attention, Ashley could be freed from the public opinion.
“Agent Jessie.”
When Jessie came out of the office building and was about to go downstairs, she was stopped by a voice. She turned around and saw the special assistant of Jasper, Henry.
“Assistant Henry?” “You called me?”
“Yes.” Henry walked towards her, “You don’t have to be too surprised. Before Mr. Jasper entered the GT Group, he saw you go in. I stayed here to tell you something.”
Jessie’s heart skipped a beat. ‘Has Jasper already known something?’ “What’s the matter? ”
“These things only known between the senior leaders, but it seems that you and Francis have talked too much, so it’s necessary to tell you.” Henry looked at Jessie and said, “The SS Group and the GT Group are currently hostile to each other. In the future, if possible, try not to have any contact with Francis. Even if you have to, be careful, especially don’t do anything harmful to the SS Group. Otherwise, you may no longer have a position in the company in the future.”
“Yes… I see… ” Jessie was shocked. The SS Group and the GT Group were enemies, so what if Francis gave her five million… “Thank you for your words. I’m here today just to communicate with Francis about the gossip of Ashley. I hope he can help clarify it. But unfortunately, he refused. ”
“Mr. Jasper has told the public relations department to deal with this matter. The media will soon reduce the report. Although it will be troublesome if Francis is unwilling to clarify it, it doesn’t matter. It will pass as time goes by.”
