Callum was thinking the situation over with an unhappy expression. “I hope your CEO keeps his word.”

The manager smiled and extended a polished hand. “Don’t worry. I will not string you along. By the way, my name is Jay Weasley. You can call me Junior too.”

Junior… Callum’s assistant rolled his eyes and almost gagged. This guy looks at least twice the age of Mr. Winthrop! Junior? Pfft! He’s more like a Senior!

Callum said coolly, “Mr. Weasley, what’s the plan of your CEO?”

“My CEO wants me to bring you around. Of course, I will spend all my time with you.” Jay’s hand hung in the air. When he noticed that Callum didn’t want to shake hands, he withdrew his hand without a hint of embarrassment. “You probably didn’t get to travel abroad a lot. There are lots of fun places around. I’ll quickly show you around.”

Callum’s assistant hissed with simmering anger, “Our CEO’s time is precious. He can’t be going on a tour with you.”

“This is a business discussion between the two companies. I believe we don’t need an assistant to school me over and over,” Jay retorted with a smile on his face. Even though he wasn’t furious, he showed that he was highly aware of the situation but chose to put on a professional front through a strong statement.

Callum realized that he had no idea what Bluestone Corp’s CEO was getting at. He kept his dissatisfaction to himself and said coldly, “Well, if your CEO said so, I’d love to be brought around.”

“Mr. Winthrop, you’re easygoing indeed. Don’t fret. I promise that you’d meet our CEO in three days.”

Callum nodded, but this time, his eyes betrayed a hint of exhaustion, which did not escape the assistant’s keen gaze. “Mr. Winthrop, do you want to take a rest if you’re tired?”

Jay gasped in astonishment, “Oh, Mr. Winthrop, looks like you didn’t get enough rest. You do seem exhausted. How about this? I’ll bring you to this great place.”
