41 Rejection

After graduating from university, Isla had been working in the Olsen family business.”

She knew Mrs. Olsen’s email password like the back of

her hand and had studied the content of emails

between Mrs. Olsen and Dr. South.

She noticed that Dr. South would reply to Mrs. Olsen instantly without asking extra questions and would solve the issue at hand right away.

He clearly held Mrs. Olsen in high esteem.

That was why Isla dared to fabricate the lie that Dr. South had accepted the Horton Group’s invitation.

With a smile on her face, Isla opened the email and saw the reply.

“I’m only responsible for the Olsen family. I’m not required to deal with issues concerning the Horton Group.”

Isla’s smile froze.

Seeing that she was upset, Jake asked with a frown, “What’s wrong?”

Regaining her composure, Isla lied. “Dr. South said that it would take a few days to solve this issue…”

Jake heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s normal. This issue is indeed challenging, but I have a bet with Kei… I mean, the people of Group One that we’ll have a solution before Friday. Is that okay?”

Isla said confidently, “No problem.”

But her eyes were flickering.

He said he had a bet with Keira!

Jake quickly returned to the Horton family.

Thinking about Keira, he felt somewhat uneasy.

Oliver, his father, smiled at him and patted his shoulder, which was quite unusual, and praised him. “Here comes my amazing son! You actually managed to invite Dr. South, and you’ll quickly establish yourself in the R&D department!”

Jake was pleasantly surprised. “Dad, don’t worry. I’ll work much harder to help you regain your position of

power!”

“Good!” Oliver went to the master bedroom without any intention of going out again.

“Jake, is your dad not going out to find that woman tonight? Is he staying home instead?”

Jake’s mother, Melissa Knight, had tears of joy in her eyes. “You have to be better than that illegitimate daughter! Only then will your father change his

attitude!”

She wiped her tears. “Although old Mrs. Horton detests Isla, that girl did a splendid job this time! Okay, enough said. I’ll go tuck your father into bed.”
