CHAPTER 704 JOE'S ARRANGEMENT

Hearing this, Nana figured something out even though she was stupid.

She clenched her palms tightly. "No wonder Mandy has been asking me about Henry's information for the past two days. And she never mentioned the person she likes. Before the party, she kept telling me how handsome the person was!"

"So you have to be extra careful." Master Mae poked Nana's eyebrow. "Initially, you had Miss Smith as your rival, and now you have another one. I'll see how you can deal with it!"

Nana was a bit afraid and she snorted, "I can't fight against the daughter of the Smith family now, but I don't believe that I can't win against Mandy. Hmph. How dare Mandy fight with me after knowing that I like Henry? I will never let her go so easily." 1

"That's right. You must first beat Mandy down, and then deal with the daughter of the Smith family." Master Mae patted his granddaughter on the shoulder. "It all depends on you whether we can hop on to the Lancaster's family big ship, Nana." This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

If the Mae family hadn't been falling behind in recent years, he wouldn't let his granddaughter become a third party and marry into the Lancaster family.

But he was old. His son and daughter-in-law had no ability to expand the Mae family, and neither did his granddaughter. He could only do so in order to

prevent the Mae family from disappearing completely.

Henry didn't know what Master Mae and Nana were u p to. He looked at the peony in his hand and his handsome face was still gloomy.

Yvonne walked up to his back and massaged his shoulder. "Alright, don't be angry. The flower has become like this. It's useless to be angry now."

Henry put down the peony, grabbed Yvonne's hand, pulled her into his arms, and let her sit on his lap. "I just thought that I can't even keep the flowers that Grandpa likes."

"It's okay, it'll bloom again." Yvonne leaned her head o n Henry's chest.

Henry smelled the fragrance coming from her head and couldn't help kissing her. "Sam's leaving in the afternoon, right?"

"Yes." Yvonne nodded. "His flight is at two o'clock. I'm going to see him off later."

Henry said while stroking her hair, "I can't make it. I have a meeting in the afternoon."

Yvonne smiled. "I know. I'll bring Theo with me. You can carry on with your work."

Henry hummed, "Okay."

The couple stayed in the study room for nearly an hour before they came out.

Then Yvonne drove to the airport together with Theo, while Henry went to the Lancaster Group.

Today's meeting was rather important because it was about time for the financial report. With so many subsidiaries under the Lancaster Group, the reporting was quite tedious, so a meeting had to be held.

The meeting lasted almost two hours before it ended.

Henry and Elliot walked out of the meeting room together. While walking, Elliot reported some business affairs to him.

After listening, Henry raised his chin slightly. "Since you think it's feasible, do it according to your idea."

Upon hearing his support, Elliot pulled his tie and said, "Okay, since you've said so, I'll..."

"Don't be happy too soon. If you don't reach the target i n the end, don't think about having a holiday this year. " Henry finished his sentence and walked away.

Elliot was stunned, and it took him a long time to react. He yelled angrily in the direction where Henry left, "Henry Lancaster, you're shameless!"

After hearing this, the passers-by raised their eyebrows, pretended to hear nothing, and walked away quickly.

Henry returned to his office. Joe followed him and entered the office.

Henry pulled the chair and then sat down. "Why are

you here and not with Hayden?"

Joe looked at him bitterly. "Chairman Lancaster, the young Mr. Lancaster has already found his executive assistant. Of course, I had to come back."

Ever since Henry stepped down as president and only served as the chairman of the board of directors, everyone had been calling him Chairman Lancaster.

Henry raised his eyebrows, then nodded to indicate that he knew. He picked up a file and flipped through i t. "How many years have you been with me?"

Joe replied after thinking about it, "Nearly ten years.”

Henry pondered for a few seconds. "Ten years... You understand the operation of each subsidiary of the Lancaster Group, right?"

Upon hearing this, Joe seemed to understand something. His heart was beating extremely fast. He suppressed the excitement forcefully and nodded solemnly. "Yes."

Henry said while crossing his fingers and putting them on the table, "From tomorrow onwards, look for a few assistants to take over your position. After you train them, you may go to the subsidiary company to serve as the president. I'll give you 1% of the shares."

Joe’s eyes were red with excitement. "Chairman Lancaster..."

Every executive assistant wanted to serve as a president of a subsidiary company.

Many of his assistants had been released, but Chairman Lancaster had never released Joe. He thought Chairman Lancaster never intended to release him, but he agreed today.

Not only that, but he even gave him 1% of the shares. Although it didn't give him the right to make decisions, there were dividends.

Everyone loved money, and Joe loved it as well. With the current market value of the Lancaster Group, 1% of the shares were worth up to a million dollars.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he was. With an excited smile, he bowed to Henry." Thank you, Chairman Lancaster!"

Henry’s face was still cold, calm, and expressionless." You don't have to thank me. You deserve it. You've been very loyal for the past ten years."

Joe scratched his head.

Henry waved his hand. "You may leave now. TH prepare the share transfer contract and get it signed tomorrow."

"Okay." Joe nodded, turned around, and went out.

He had to recruit a few assistants for the chairman and train them well.

So that when he left, the chairman would have others t o work for him.

After Joe left, Henry turned on his computer and prepared the share transfer contract.

It was six o'clock when he was done. His mobile phone beside him rang.

Henry glanced at the caller ID and a touch of gentleness flashed across his eyes. He picked it up and put it to his ear to answer, "Yvonne...”

Unexpectedly, the voice from the other end of the phone wasn't Yvonne's, but Theo's. "Daddy."

Henry remained gentle and replied, "Daddy's here. Are you looking for Daddy, Theo?"

Theo shook his head and said, "Mommy calls, but I answer it."

Henry understood.

He meant that Yvonne made the call, but Theo answered it.

Henry leaned back in his chair and asked, "What do you want to say, Theo?"

Theo looked at Yvonne. "Mommy wants me to ask Daddy, when are you coming back? It's almost time for dinner."

When Henry heard this, he looked at the time in the lower right-hand corner of the computer. He saw that i t was six o'clock. Only then did he realize that it was s olate.

Henry rubbed his temples. "I'm sorry, Daddy is busy today. I forgot about the time. I'll be home soon."

Theo hummed, "Then I will give the phone to Mommy."

Henry nodded. "Okay."

Soon, the person on the other end of the phone changed to Yvonne.

Yvonne sat on the edge of the bed and stroked her son's soft hair in her arms. She said, "Why are you so late today?" 1

Henry told her about Joe’s arrangement. "I had a meeting and prepared a contract."

Upon hearing that, Yvonne nodded. "Yeah. You've been exploiting Joe miserably over the years."

Henry raised his eyebrows. "Exploiting?"

Did he exploit Joe?

Yvonne curled her lips and smiled. "Don't you think s o?"

Henry raised his eyes and showed some interest." Then tell me, how did I exploit him?"
