Chapter 335 You Have Only One Use For Me (Part One)
Essie sighed, "I know. I'm still a newcomer. The directors won't listen to me. That's why I turn to you for help."
Taking a deep and deep glance at her, Zac said slowly, "It depends on my mood whether I help you or not."
Seeming to receive some hints, Essie immediately put on a flattering smile and said, "The Braised Beef Brisket with Turnip I made is very delicious. You liked it a lot before. Let me cook it for you tonight, okay?"
There was an old saying in this world that 'Men conquer the world and women conquer men'. That was the eternal truth. Women did not need to buckle on their armor and go into battle. All they had to do was to conquer the man who conquered the world, then, the world was at their disposal.
Zac snorted. She was quick to react. This woman was really good at using resources.
On the next day, Essie and Zac attended the banquet together. She was dressed in a sapphire blue suit and had a bun, looking noble and mature. The rows and reconciliations between her and Zac confused a lot of people. Such a complicated relationship had triggered many small earthquake in Dragon City's business circles.
"Since the second daughter left, then there comes a third daughter. It seems that Rong family and Xu family are destined to be relatives connected by marriage," one of the directors said with a smile. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
"Mr. Rong is so lucky to have Miss Xu as his wife." Another director nodded.
In the eyes of the public, it would be a piece of cake for Essie this acting CEO of the company to become the real CEO. Now, she had become the richest woman in Dragon City and owned billions of dollars.
However, Essie didn't have the ambition. In the future, Holy would be the only person in charge of the Xu's group, and she would take the role of an auxiliary political minister to eradicate all the enemies who harbored to overturn the Xu's group in the past. She would pave a flat and broad path for Holy, so that he could take over the position smoothly in the future.
Zac and Essie sat next to Albert. Jim chose to sit next to the other side of Essie. "I heard that Zac has amnesia. Is it true?" His voice was so low that only two people could hear it.
Essie nodded, "I don't know when he can recover."
"If I guess correctly, he has a mental problem, not a brain problem," Jim said seriously, totally ignoring the fierce look from the man.
"Psychological problems?" Essie was shocked.
"Compulsive amnesia is one kind of amnesias that people force themselves to forget the past when they encounter something they don't want to accept or have a blow to them, so they choose to forget it," Jim explained.
Is it? Essie took a glance at Zac. Was it because he couldn't accept the fact that she and Hanson had two kids that he forced himself to forget her?
Just when she was lost in her thoughts, Jim said in a low voice, "Habit cures habit. If you untie his knot, he will naturally recover his memory."
"Do you know psychology?" Essie raised her eyebrows and thought that he was talking like a psychologist.
"I just shoot some new roles lately. I acted as a psychologist, so I've to study it particularly." Jim smile. This was called 'learn to practice'.
Essie also smiled. She thought, 'If icy guy really had psychological problems, other than the problems in her brain, I would have had to ask a psychologist for help.'
"Thank you for reminding me, but today I'm still mainly working to compete the position of deputy CEO. You'll support me, won't you?" She cleverly shifted the topic to the 'right' one.
"Don't worry. Zac and I will definitely support you." Jim's pair of charming eyes flickered lightly. Zac cast a stern glance at him. His face was filled with anger. 'Why did my wife need your support?'
Jim threw a weird smile at him. 'What a wife domineering guy! Even he lost his memory, he still dominates over his wife unconsciously, ' he thought.
The election was held before the beginning of the dinner, and they applied secret ballot.
Essie turned her head and took a glance at Zac. It seemed that he was wearing a mask and he tried to hide all his expressions, leaving behind a pair of deep and cold eyes. Obviously, she wouldn't know the answer from his face.
Would he really help her?
She was a little nervous. Before he lost his memory, she could guess a little of what was on his mind. But now he was totally different. His mind changed quicker than flipping pages of a book. If he lost his temper, it was normal for him to ignore her.
After the two presidents and the nine directors finished their votes, the election host started to count the result.
As a result, Essie narrowly won with one vote majority.
With a slight smile at the corners of her mouth, Essie breathed a sigh of relief. Before she stood up, she whispered in Zac's ear in a very low voice, "Thank you, my husband."
Zac was expressionless, as if he hadn't heard that. To be honest, whether she would be a vice president had nothing to do with him. But she was his wife. If she was not elected, he would be embarrassed.
Essie went upstage to give an address. She was the youngest and the only female deputy CEO in the history of chamber of Commerce of Dragon City. Of course, she didn't want to be in the position for a long time. After Baron woke up, she could retire.
After the dinner party began, she stood up and made a toast to Albert. Seeing this, Albert smiled and said, "It is almost new year's day. Don't spend too much time out with Zac alone. Come back home more often."
"Okay." Essie nodded obediently. She felt sorry for this father-in-law, and the lenient grandpa and grandma of the Rong family. They must have known about Mili and Dot. But they deliberately avoided talking about it. Maybe they were waiting for her explanation.
