The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family by Adela

Assuming that Charlie was simply joking, Claire didn't take it seriously. She walked aside and dialed Doris's number.

Soon, the call was answered.

Doris's sweet and pleasing voice resonated from the other end of the line. "Hello, Miss Wilson."

"Hi, Miss Young. I have a favor to ask from you," Claire said timidly.

"Okay, what is it?" Doris replied.

Claire rehearsed the sentence in her head once again, taking a deep breath before she said determinedly," May I know if the chairman is available tomorrow night? My family will be organizing a banquet tomorrow to officially announce our collaboration with Emgrand Group. I hope that the chairman would kindly accept my invitation..."

There was silence at the other end of the line before Doris spoke again, "Miss Wilson, I'm sorry but I cannot make the decision on behalf of my chairman. Or, perhaps I could ask him for you, would that be alright?"

Claire said respectfully, "Thank you, sorry for the trouble caused."

After the call was ended, Claire held her phone nervously, anticipating her reply.

Right at this moment, Charlie's phone suddenly rang.

Charlie was taken aback, quietly cursed himself for forgetting to mute his phone. It must be Doris who was calling to ask for his opinion...

He pretended to answer the phone calmly and mumbled, "Yes?"

As expected, Doris's voice came from the phone, "Mr. Wade, Wilson Group will be holding a banquet tomorrow night. I would like to ask if you would want to attend the banquet."

Charlie replied, "Oh, is that so? Okay, I will...Alright, that's it, bye..."

Then, he quickly hung up the call and mumbled," These marketing spam calls are really annoying..."

Claire didn't suspect anything, but very soon, her phone rang again.
