Zephyr narrowed his eyes and only sat after ensuring she had gone back to normal. He showed her the acquisition of Wattz Media.

“The Bakers and Hamertons are holding the shares. 49% on your side and are fractional shares and shared among a few other shareholders.”

“You have only 1% less than me?” Janine’s gaze dimmed a little.

“Mom, this is already an advantageous condition.” Zephyr’s tone was flat, and he did not have much of an expression. “It’s because you like this company, and the Bakers have a significant professional standing in the media industry. Plus, this company isn’t doing too much under me, that I agree—”

“Advantageous condition?” Janine suddenly raised her voice. “This is how you talk to your mother?”

Zephyr was befuddled again, asking softly after a long time, “Are we not… talking about work?”

“Hah, so we are no longer mother and son now. Only work’s left between us, is that so?”

Zephyr stayed silent. Was this what people said to be menopause?

“Mom, I—”

“Alright, this is fine. We’ll keep it this way!” Janine signed easily. “Since I’m the biggest shareholder, Wattz Media needs to change its name. Name it Imperial Media.”

“Sure.”

“I want my people in there too.”

Zephyr nodded. “Mm, it makes sense.

“But Mr. Smith stays as the general manager. He’s experienced and well-connected, whether in the entertainment or media industry. The company needs him.

“Do you have any other candidates in mind?”

Janine thought of Xyla’s pretty and gentle little princess.

When she recruited someone, she prioritized their character. The princess was kind and honest, and Janine liked her at first glance. As for her professional skills, it would not be a problem with some training.

She coughed. “I need a senior assistant whom I’ll be bringing around. I already have someone in mind. But it’ll take some time to recruit her into the company.”

“Okay.” Zephyr agreed. “Let me know where the person is. I’ll do it for you.”

Janine did not answer. She looked at her son for a bit and said softly, “Zephyr, I’ll be direct with you. This person I chose, I hope that you’ll interact with her more, other than work-related issues.”

“What?” Zephyr frowned.

“Be it her looks, character, or family status, this girl is a thousand times better than that indecent Ms. Jenner!”

Zephyr’s expression hardened as he clenched his fists. “Mom…”

“Anyway, I have my mind made up about this girl!” Janine said coldly, “Nelly Tanner can’t compare to her either! Consider it carefully.”
