Chapter 48 Joe Left
They were very close to each other. Mia struggled not to take half a step back. Instead, she calmly looked at Joe.
Both Mr. Lake and Mr. Lee looked at the two of them nervously and were afraid that Joe would do something out of anger.
Fortunately, Joe just chuckled and suddenly reached out his hand to Mia. “I’ll be in charge of this project from now on. As the person in charge of the Horizon Group, Miss White should also be in charge, right?”
Mia really wanted to refuse but knew that this project involved billions of dollars, so there must be no problems during their cooperation.
She had no choice but to put on a business smile. “Since Mr. Smith values this project so much, I’ll naturally cooperate with you.”
Only then did Joe say meaningfully, “That’s great. We have plenty of time in the future.”
“But Mr. Smith, since you’ve got my business card and knew my name, please call me Miss Clinton in the future,” Mia said in a distant tone.
Joe blinked. “We’ve been to the Horizon Group so many times, and it’s rare to see Miss White… Miss Clinton, why don’t you
show me around the company.”
“No.”
Mia refused him without thinking. Ben and Anna were still playing with Frank in the company. She couldn’t let them meet.
Joe thought that Mia didn’t want to stay with him, so his face darkened. “Is this how Miss Clinton treats her guests?”
“I mean, it’s not convenient for you to visit the company when others are working. Why don’t you come to my office?” Mia knew that her obvious performance would definitely attract his attention, so she quickly added.
Joe and Mia had been married for three years. How could he not see that she was suddenly nervous? Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
But why did Mia, who dared to challenge him just now, have such an emotional change? Joe thought to himself. Just as he was about to respond, his cell phone suddenly rang.
“My stomach hurts, Joe!”
Joe frowned slightly when he heard Wendy’s petite voice on the
other side.
He wanted to refuse her but heard Wendy’s scream and then hang up the phone.
“I still have something to do today. Why don’t I visit your company next time?” Joe said in a low voice.
Mia had never thanked Wendy for making trouble like she did today. She replied straightforwardly, “Mr. Smith, since you have something to do, you can go now. See you next time.”
It would be best if he never came again.
Joe took a deep look at her and left with a curled lip.
Mia breathed a sigh of relief and quickly contacted Frank to ask about his location.
Joe took Jack and Mr. Lee into the elevator. Without hiding anything, he said to Jack, “Go and investigate what happened to Mia in the past few years. Why did she suddenly change her surname and establish the Horizon Group.”
The Horizon Group had a lot of initial capital. Where did she get the money?
Joe only felt that Mia five years ago was as simple as a piece of white paper and could be understood at a glance. Five years. later, she became mysterious and had a lot more unknown
matters.
While they were taking the elevator, two young female employees came in.
They did not even notice the presence of Joe and started discussing excitedly. “Ben and Anna are so cute, especially Anna. She’s as soft as a rice ball! I really want to steal her from Miss Clinton”
