He knew he was distracted, all he could think about was the image of Charlotte leaving slightly hurt. Did he really scare her away?
That feeling of wanting to scare her away but also fearing he’d scare her too much was truly awful, for the first time he felt he was at a loss.
"That was Charlotte who just left, right? Isn’t she one of the hidden bosses of Currency City? My suggestion is to let her handle all the cash flow in this project. I’ve heard she’s a genius trader. Although I didn’t see that from her appearance, she shouldn’t be lacking. Your new wife is not a simple woman." There seemed to be something strange about Charlotte, a mix of restraint and stubbornness as if it was all tied to her eyes.
"She’s not suitable." Atlas Hallow declined without hesitation, Charlotte was his wife, he didn’t need his wife to earn money for him.
"You’re reluctant, aren’t you?" Joseph Shaw looked at Atlas with eyes that seemed to know everything. After all these years, it was the first time seeing Atlas distracted.
Was he reluctant?
It seemed so, he was reluctant to have her showcase her beauty in front of all the men, and the covetous looks from others made his back feel prickly.
"Atlas, this isn’t like you. You used to be the best at employing people, squeezing them dry without leaving anything." Joseph didn’t back down; his main purpose today was to persuade Atlas to agree to this, because the cash flow was too enormous. It would involve a large portion of their cash and would also require some financing.
It’s not that they couldn’t get the money; too many people wanted to get involved in this project, but what they needed was 100% control.
This was Charlotte’s expertise; she could get investment from many hidden tycoons, and those people wouldn’t question the direction of the funds.
Charlotte and Ethan Baird’s "Currency City" investment company wasn’t the largest in the industry, but its reputation was the best and most promising, and she was a living advertisement, even though few had seen her.
But from the outside, she appeared to be a stunningly beautiful and complex woman, yet she’s precisely the kind of woman who isn’t overly concerned with most things, but when she truly likes something, she excels at it.
"I don’t agree..." Atlas said without hesitation, he was a man and didn’t need his woman to worry about such things.
"I don’t agree either, not going to wear out your wife. Wasn’t she doing the same thing when she was in the United States?" Joseph coldly snorted. Atlas’s demeanor just made people want to give him a good beating; he had good tools at his disposal, why wouldn’t he use them.
If it were his wife, he’d have her start working immediately.
Men who pamper their women are extremely foolish, fortunately, he’s been through many flowers without a leaf sticking, unlike Atlas who dared to get married.
But a man like Atlas, even with a wife, shouldn’t be tied down; in this world, who could possibly control him?
"Besides, the other shareholder of Currency City is back too. I’ve heard Ethan Baird is Oliver Baird’s younger brother. Your lovely new little wife is quite amazing, having ties with the Baird Family." Originally, when this project started, he had thought about finding Currency City Company as a third party to introduce funds. He didn’t expect that just as the project commenced, Atlas had married Charlotte.
Isn’t this like an opportunity falling into your lap? Why not take it?
