Daddy, Chasing Mommy Back is On Us! novel Chapter 70

Pauline didn’t understand what Linda’s cough meant, and neither did it concern her since she was a typical workaholic. “President Yard, I’ve prepared a proposal for your perusal.” Pauline then handed a file over to Selena.

At that moment, the expression on Selena’s face changed because she no longer wanted anything to do with Pierre.

Soon, Pauline added, “We must enter Astoria’s market as soon as possible, and Fowler Corporation will be our ticket in. If we were to go for the other alternatives, it would only cost us more time and resources. The worst part of all, it doesn’t even guarantee half of our success.”

After hearing Pauline’s bold and confident words, Selena knew that she must have done a thorough market analysis. Thus, she had to concede that Pauline knew better about the market than she did. At the same time, she set her eyes on the thick proposal, acknowledging her employee’s hard work in compiling all her findings.

“I hereby announce that we will abort the plan to cooperate with Fowler Corporation.” Selena made her decision known after long deliberation. Her words left everyone nonplussed, as they stared at her with their mouth left wide agape. Since it was known that Selena had visited the Fowler Family with Linda earlier, they all thought that the company’s plan to work with Fowler Corporation was etched in stone. Therefore, none of them could believe their ears when they heard Selena’s announcement.

“That’s all for today’s meeting! Entering Astoria’s market and building our own brand are both our big goals, so let’s take our time to map out our plan. I know everyone’s been working around the clock recently. So, please take two days off, ladies and gentlemen!” Selena stood up and walked out the door, only to be followed closely by Pauline.

At that moment, Pauline didn’t say a single word, as she slowly began to understand that returns came with risks. Although the partnership with Fowler Corporation could indeed bring a lot of benefit to our company, those people are not fools either, as they will probably expect something great in return as well. If we fail to deliver that, we could find ourselves in an inescapable dilemma, just like President Yard said.

Meanwhile, Selena patted Pauline’s shoulder and left the office. Since the meeting had ended sooner than usual, she decided to make her way to Juniper’s school. After driving her daughter to school a few times, Selena began to be more and more familiar with the traffic around the area, knowing that the roads would be congested every day when the school was over. Therefore, Selena parked her car some place further away from the kindergarten, after which she walked there to fetch Juniper. I think it would also be a good opportunity for both of us to take a stroll along the way.

As soon as she parked her car, Selena caught a glimpse of a familiar figure in the rear mirror. Pierre Fowler? The man was seen with a new car, a red Lamborghini with the word ‘Veneno’. In fact, it was a Spanish word that meant venom, which later became the name that was known to everyone.
