Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 365 Solving the Crisis

When Frank saw that Elspeth was about to break into tears, he stroked her head while feeling sorry for her. “There, there. Don’t cry.”

“Who said I’m crying? Something’s gotten into my eyes,” Elspeth sniffled and refuted with a smile.

“Alright. Since you’re denying it, there’s nothing else I can say.” Frank shrugged helplessly.

“So, what crisis is your company facing now?” Jordan cut to the chase.

At the mention of her company, Elspeth felt sorrowful.

“Several companies claimed that our products were not up to standard and ended their collaborations with us. As such, we owe them 50 million now. Moreover, all the companies in Damoria have stopped working with us. Now, our finances are in the red.”

An agitated Frank snapped, saying, “Those useless guys are probably the Alphascape Group’s lackeys!”

“Your company is in trouble, but Callum still isn’t willing to help you. It seems that your relationship with him has failed the test of time,” Jordan said all of a sudden.

Elspeth hung her head low and replied calmly, “There’s nothing between us anymore.”

Jordan thought that he might have saddened Elspeth, so he stopped talking about it. He then consoled her by saying, “Alright. Just get some rest here. If you trust me, you can let me handle your company’s affairs for now.”

“I can’t even save my company, and you’re here to help. Why would I not trust you?”

Elspeth then looked at Harper and ordered, “From now on, Jordan will be the acting president. He’ll handle all the affairs, so just obey his orders.”

“Yes.” Harper was aware of Jordan’s capabilities, so he immediately nodded in agreement.

However, Frank frowned with displeasure. “What about me? I’m here to help too. I can also do something for you!”

“Alright, alright. Both of you will handle the company’s affairs. Why don’t you be Jordan’s assistant, Frank?” Elspeth couldn’t help laughing, for she didn’t expect Frank to be as childish as ever.

Only then did Frank put on a milder expression.
