The Life Of A Billionaires Wife

Chapter 46 The Ambush on Veronica

The news that Veronica was now Elizabeth’s god-granddaughter gave Floch and his wife an impending sense of doom.

To ensure that Tiffany had a stable life when she married into the Kings Family, they started to plan and scheme in their villa.

…

At the same time, Veronica arrived at the Glory Medical Equipment Company.

The company, which was one of the corporations that Xavier owned, was barely surviving even though it had the backing of the Crawford Family. However, it wasn’t bleeding any money either.

Standing in the CEO’s office, Veronica looked at Xavier fooling around and asked, “What work do you want me to take on here?”

After entering the company, she instantly lost all her fervor when she saw the state of the workplace.

The employees were all lazy, slow and inefficient. The company should be thanking God that they haven’t gone bankrupt yet with such a management.

No, the one they should be thanking is the Crawfords.

Xavier had a laid-back expression as he leaned on the executive chair in his suit. While he had crossed his legs on the office table, he had a cigarette in his mouth as he smoked lazily.

“You could be the manager of the warehouse, sales department, project department, supervisor of the accounting department or the head of the secretaries. It’s up to you.”

Looking at Xavier wasting his talents made Veronica feel extremely disappointed.

With a slight frown, she shook her head in resignation. “Xavier, are you going to just let your youth waste away like this?”

“To live unexamined while being supported is also a kind of enjoyment.”

He felt the disappointment and feeling of loss in her smile, but merely smiled in response.

Then, he stood up and raised his hand to point around the extravagant office. “Do you know how many would dream to live a life like mine?”

His words spoke the truth.

And this truth was something that Veronica had no reason to rebuke him with.

After looking at each other for a few seconds, she broke the silence by saying, “My sincere thanks to you for looking after me, but I don’t want to work here.”

This was a company so mismanaged that it could close down at any moment.
