Chapter 17
Joanna, daughter of the Mo Company, Richie Gu's wife, hung up the phone, then Jensen pondered the name, his black eyes were bottomless.
After going through the affair between Richie and Yana that day, everything seemed to be out of order for Joanna.
First of all, he was contacted by the lawyer of the other party for the compensation of the car accident. Furthermore, the monitoring of the pet hospital happened to fail that day. There was no way to find out about the man. In the end, it was handled by the Mo Company. After the branch office was closed for rectification, executives resigned one after another. In less than a week, many left. Almost ten of them resigned and four of them went to Richie’s company.
Joanna didn't know if she was too sensitive. She intuitively felt that it was not a coincidence. She certainly understood the truth of choosing a good tree to rest. She was afraid that the person behind it was someone she didn't dare to think about.
She squeezed her eyebrows, closed her eyes, and leaned on the back of the chair. After all, she hadn’t seen Richie for more than a week. This was the first time she insisted that she hadn’t called him for so long. When tossing and turning, he might still be grateful that there was no harassment from her...
The door was knocked twice and Anna opened the door and whispered, "Manager Mo?"
Joanna wiped his face and raised his head to restore his usual stability, "What's the matter?"
"Mr. Mo asked me to remind you, don't forget the birthday banquet of Mr. Li tonight."
Joanna frowned, "We haven't seem to receive any invitation letter from the Li family, right?"
Mr. Li was the first batch of businessmen to go to sea in the late 1970s. His shrewd mind and firm control quickly established the position of the richest man in Yun'an City. However, the Mo family is a family with a century-old history in the chemical composition of cosmetics. In the era of flooding, the unique cosmetics company were widely sought after, but her father was a conservative person in his bones and has an innate resistance to the real estate, which was a bubble economy. So even in the same business circle, The Mo family and the Li family have almost no intersection. Now, in order to sway the Mo family, has her father also learned to be a suck up? Joanna gave birth to an inexplicable sorrow.
"The Mos will not participate, but Mr. Mo said you have to go, because Gu's family was also invited this time."
Joanna suddenly understood her father's intentions. He was paving the way for her and the reminder of Richie’s family had caused Joanna discomfort. All she could do was grit her teeth before making a sound.
"Tell Mr. Mo, I will definitely go."
At three o'clock in the afternoon, she called Richie, and it took a long time before someone answered it. Surprisingly, it turned out to be Jalen.
"President Gu is in a meeting, is there anything wrong, ma'am?"
"Is Richie going to attend Father Li's birthday banquet tonight?"
"Yes, the invitation was received yesterday."
Joanna closed her eyes and cast two fan-shaped shadows on her face. After a while, she said softly, "Does he need a female companion."
Jalen quickly understood, "If you need it, I will talk to him when Mr. Gu’s meeting later ends."
Joanna breathed a sigh of relief and whispered "thank you".
Cutting off the power, she became anxious. In fact, she didn't like to attend such gatherings. Her brother had been playing wild since childhood and doesn't care about business matters at all. Her father can't help it, so she pushed groomed her into the company heir. This identity gave her supreme glory, but also gave her unspeakable disgust. Even Henry didn't know that she actually anti-social tendencies.
It was just after five o'clock that Joanna received the call from Jalen. She was a little surprised. According to her understanding of Richie, if he agreed, he would call her first-and humiliate her. Was it the return of old love, did temperament has changed?
She laughed at herself and her delusion.
"Mrs. Gu asked you to rush to Li's villa directly, where he is waiting for you. The address is..."
With such a promise, Joanna couldn't react to it. It took a while before he said, "I see."
Just about to hang up, Jalen suddenly said, "Madam, when you go, go there when there are few people."
Joanna frowned, "Why?"
"Well, Mr. Gu doesn't like too many people."
After Jalen finished speaking, he hung up the call in a hurry. Joanna held her cell phone in a daze for a while, dialed Richie's cell phone once more, but failed to get through.
The birthday feast starts at eight o'clock in the evening.
Joanna was in a hurry to fixed herself up and almost rushed to the destination without stopping. When she arrived, there were people outside the venue. She searched for a circle and while looking for Richie. When thinking of Jalen, Joanna stayed in the car for a while, and while waiting, she called Richie, but still couldn't get through. Could it be that he went in first?
Because they were afraid that the media would come in, the venue refused to welcome guests at 7:30. At the time of 7:20 came, Joanna frowned, she put her phone away and got out of the car.
She wore a V-neck waist long skirt, a long knee length black Milan windmill dress, and a hair card with long shoulder hair card in the back of her head, showing a fair and delicate cheek, elegant with sex, because of the amazing, a lot of eyes attracted the appearance, although the door is so few people.
