Chapter 113 Play It by Ear
Truman cleared his throat slightly and reported Jonathan’s schedule for today as usual.
"There are two different meetings for this morning, an inspection of a grand opening of the mall in the
afternoon, and an opening celebration."
Jonathan nodded. "Alright."
Truman closed his schedule notepad in his hand and carried on, "Mrs Miller’s office is ready, it's in..."
While he was speaking, he looked up and saw Jonathan glaring at him.
All of the sudden, uncountable ideas went through Truman’s mind.
At once, he changed his words, "The offices on the top floor are filled to capacity! There is no
availability."
Angelia looked at him astonished.
"Did you just say..."
"Not just the penthouse, but there is also no free capacity above the tenth floor, Mrs. Miller’s office has
not been organized yet." Truman emphasized.
Jonathan turned his attention back to them.
"Alright then, position it in my office."
Truman’s best ability of playing it by ear is really high.
"I'll make sure it is arranged immediately."
When he got out of the elevator, he rapidly showed the assistants to move the stuff of previously
arranged office to Jonathan's.
A few employees looked around at the things prepared for Angelia before and they were concerned.
This room was already massive, but it was still filled up. If they were all moved to the boss’s office,
where to relocate the stuff of the boss's office?
Truman didn't even blink.
"The boss is not bothered, what are you so upset about? Carry on."
After he finished speaking, he made the point of the situation and added some more to the rest.
Numerous office furniture were relocated into the boss's office.
The black and white, tedious, and boring office, because some of the pink-colored items had to be
moved in, it seemed to be a bit featureless.
There was a small brown wooden table near a black desk that made it look very observable.
On the table, there were colorful book clips, pens, and a little pink monkey toy.
Yesterday, when Truman heard that Angelia was going to join the company, he hired two bodyguards to
buy these young girls' accessories.
A beautiful sofa was moved in, and there were a few cute pillows on it to make it look more
comfortable.
There were so many things around, almost half of the office capacity was filled.
Two diametrically opposed styles were put together, but in that weirdness, there was harmony.
Jonathan stood at the door and was spectating it, without saying a word at all.
Angelia was a little bit anxious, she didn't expect them to bring so many things in.
As she was about to let Truman take them out, Jonathan had already stepped in the office without a
strange expression on his face, getting ready for today's work. Angelia had to take the words back
suddenly.
The two tables that were displayed, one huge and one little, was somehow very similar to a study room
in a castle. Angelia looked around and put the things in order on the table.
When she put her head up again, Jonathan and Truman were already occupied in today's work.
Truman was talking about the problem he had before, and Jonathan quickly came up with a solution,
while putting his head down and thinking about something for a moment.
They solved the problem very promptly, and Angelia realized she also has to be very serious about her
work.
Jonathan lowered his head and quickly came up with a new plan, his brows raised slightly, and his
determination became untamable.
When he finished the plan and handed it to Truman, his attention was towards Angelia.
Angelia instantly asked.
"What would you like me to do?"
Jonathan grinned.
"Meeting."
He stood up and said, "This time you don't have to do anything. Follow Truman and he will teach you
everything."
Angelia nodded seriously and followed them into the conference room.
Before she entered, Truman gave her the information used in the meeting.
"Miss Wilson, are you easily frightened?"
Angelia gazed at him questionably.
Truman didn't continue and pushed the doors open.
The meeting room was full of people.
There were a few familiar faces, Angelia had recognized during Jonathan's video conference.
As soon as she walked in, everyone’s attention was towards her.
Before they could all examine her, Jonathan walked to the top of the conference table and sat down
slowly.
"Let's all discuss this, what is happening?"
As soon as he started speaking, everyone immediately remembered why this meeting was made in the
first place.
In the beginning, in terms of marine transport, a large project was stolen, and the opponents were the
Millers.
In the past, they were the only ones who were stealing things from others, but they were snatched this Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
time. None of them were convinced.
On top of that, a lot has been going south with the Millers.
Everything was kept as a secret. When they found things out, Michael had already signed the
agreement contract with the other party.
Since entering the company’s business, Michael dared to take M.I.’s order, and now it was spreading
all over.
If it wasn’t for this, Jonathan would not have anticipated his return from his holidays.
When several supervisors and managers saw Angelia, they got confused and forgot many things.
The manager stood up and said, "The partner first participates, then suddenly backs out of the deal.
We have no new information about it."
"Yes, all cooperation partners were very happy with the deal. How could we know that all of the sudden
he would change his mind?"
They all agreed.
Jonathan looked towards them.
"Being it a cooperation, the other party will have to choose a much better plan. You don't even know
when Michael intervened, and it’s not a surprise that the order was stolen."
When everyone heard about it, everyone remained silent.
This order could make a huge profit, and could be an income of hundreds of millions.
No one wanted to lose this kind of deal.
Jonathan put his hand out.
"Pass me your plan."
One person instantly handed a document to him.
Jonathan read it, frowned, and threw all the papers away angrily.
"And you call that garbage a plan!?"
Angelia's eyes widened, she got frightened and eventually understood why Truman had just asked her
if she was easily scared.
Jonathan's face was despondent.
"What's the difference between this one and the last one? The only change I can see is the size of the
entrance and exit, what else?"
"Is this the best plan you could think of?"
They all put their heads down, too afraid to make a comment.
This project was finished last year. They didn’t make much changes because the previous time they
had an amazing cooperation, so they just sent it over after they revised few details only.
Everything went well in the beginning, and the contract was about to be signed, but the other party
suddenly changed its mind.
"What about Michael's plan over there?"
They handed the plan to one another.
Jonathan looked through it, and his face expression was even worse than before.
"That is why they left us. All of you compare the dissimilarities between the two contracts, and each of
you write five separate plans and send them to me."
Everyone was in distress and looked up at him anxiously.
Jonathan had already started to talk about a different thing.
"A month from now, the new product will be released. Have you thought about the advertising plan?"
"Yeah...yes..."
Everyone swiftly handed the plan over.
Jonathan’s mood finally got a little bit better. He then rapidly combined the ideas of a few people,
designed the plan in his mind and invested on it without hesitation.
