Just as Charlie was about to speak, a middle-aged man approached and said to Emily with a smile, “Emily, who are you chatting with so opportunistically?” “Chairman, you’re here early!” Emily said with a smile. The man laughed and replied, “I had to come early to support your closing ceremony.” He then looked at Claire with interest and asked Emily, “Who is this beauty?” “Chairman, this is my master class classmate, Claire Wilson,” Emily said, introducing the two. Matthew Peterson, the middle-aged man, quickly pulled out a business card and handed it to Claire, saying seriously, “Ms. Wilson, we are currently looking to bring on young talent like yourself as partners. As a designer, you would receive a starting salary of at least one million dollars per year.” But Claire shook her head and replied, “I’m sorry, Mr. Peterson, but I already have my own company, even if it’s small. In my opinion, it’s much more comfortable to work for myself than for any other company.” Matthew looked disappointed, but quickly recovered and said with a smile, “Well, we are also looking for potential start-up design companies to invest in around the world. If you’re interested in working with us or accepting our investment, we can have a more in-depth conversation.”
Charlie, sensing that Matthew had ulterior motives, said lightly, “Sorry, but my wife doesn’t need investment from anyone except me.” Matthew frowned at Charlie and asked Emily, “Who is this gentleman?” “This is Claire’s husband, a very powerful feng shui master,” Emily explained. “He just read my face and said that my business will suffer an extinction blow. Since you’re my boss, I was hoping you could confirm whether my business will soar upward or fall downward today.” Charlie smiled and said seriously, “I just said that you do have great joy today, and although your face is not ideal, you were born with charming bones. As long as there is a man with strong enough ability who is attracted to your charm, his ability will help you overcome the defects in your face.” Matthew laughed and said, “Of course it will soar upward! After all, today Emily was promoted to senior partner and her salary has increased several times. As her boss, when I say she’s going up, she’s definitely going up. I wonder how you came to the conclusion that her career would come to an end?”
