I Met The Female CEO While Escaping A Blind Date

Chapter 31: Video Call Between Mother-in-Law and Daughter-In-Law

“Forget it. Let’s not tell Yvette and the rest about this matter for the time being. I just received the money. If I don’t do a good job, she will have more things to say about me. I must do well and then impress her.”

William Scott gave a thumbs up and said, “Good ambition.”

“But… are you not going to tell Yvette too?”

“Why should I tell her?”

Xenia Lewis rolled her eyes and said, “It’s no wonder that your relationship with Yvette hasn’t progressed much. Don’t you tell each other everything when you’re in a relationship?”

William Scott laughed and said, “We’re all independent people, so there’s no need to say anything.”

“Then what are you guys talking about on your dates?” Xenia Lewis’s expression was already a little strange.

William Scott coughed gently and said, “We’ve only known each other for such a short period of time. Time passes quickly even if we talk about casual stuff.”

“I say, William, I see that your relationship with Yvette is still a long way off. I really don’t know when the two of you will be able to have some outcome.”

“Ha, let nature take its course. There’s no need to force things like feelings.”

Xenia Lewis said with disdain, “Forget it. If you two don’t take the initiative, you will never be together.”

“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. Let’s study the company’s future development.”

“Next… If I have money, I can continue filming and promoting my works.”

......

“It’s that simple?”

“This…” Xenia Lewis smiled a little embarrassedly and said, “I think it’s simple, but I really haven’t thought it through yet.”

“I don’t have any other ideas for the time being, but I have two suggestions. Think about it. Firstly, let’s change to a bigger office. We’re considered a big company with a valuation of 50 million now, yet we’re still working in such a small place. We don’t have any face if we continue working here. In the future, if we work with others, we’ll be looked down upon by others. If they look down on our company, it will naturally be difficult for us to work with them.”

“Oh… that sounds reasonable. I’ll listen to you then.”

“Yes, the second suggestion is to hire more people. Professionals have to do things professionally so that they can do better. You can’t let the employees be omnipotent. You can’t do everything by yourself. You have to learn to let the employees display their talents.”

“There were only two of us in the past, and it was all to save money. We invested the money ourselves, and it would hurt my heart to spend a little more. Now that I’m spending someone else’s money, I suddenly feel that I can be less stingy.”

William Scott chuckled, “That’s the benefit of financing. It will allow people to broaden their horizons.”

Xenia Lewis gave a thumbs up and said, “Alright, then I’ll listen to you.”

William Scott’s cell phone suddenly rang. When he saw that it was his mother’s call, he quickly picked it up.

“Mom, what’s wrong?”

“Son, where are you? I was chatting with your Auntie Winnie just now. She has a pretty good niece. Look…”

“Mom, didn’t I tell you that I already have a girlfriend and I can bring her back for you in a month or so? Why are you introducing another girlfriend to me?”

“Hmph. I didn’t come to my senses yesterday, but now I’ve figured it out. You’re definitely lying to me.”

“I really didn’t lie to you. Wait a minute, I’ll send you a video.” William Scott looked at Xenia Lewis and his eyes lit up. He immediately hung up.

“Xenia, do me a favor.”

“What do you want to do?” Xenia Lewis had a mischievous smile on her face. She had already roughly guessed what William Scott wanted to do.

William Scott said directly, “Pretend to be Yvette and get on a video call with my mother. Otherwise, she won’t believe that I have a girlfriend.”

“No problem.” Xenia Lewis answered readily.

This time, William Scott video-called his mother on Whatsapp, and she immediately answered the call.

“Mom, let me introduce to you. This is my girlfriend, Yvette Quinn. Yvette, this is my mom.”

“Hello, Auntie!” Yvette Quinn and William Scott appeared in the video together with a sweet smile.

“You really have one! Don’t try to trick me with just a random girl. Wait… you’re really Yvette Quinn!” Janna Sands exclaimed.

Xenia Lewis smiled even more sweetly and said, “Yes, I’m really sorry. I kept saying that I wanted to visit you with William, but I’ve been busy with work recently and haven’t had the time. I’ll definitely visit you when I’m done these few days.”

“This… how is this possible, how is this possible…” Janna Sands muttered to herself, not even thinking of responding to William Scott.

William Scott quickly said, “Mom, you saw it for yourself this time? I still have something to attend to with Yvette. I’ll bring her back in a few days.”

“Okay, okay, you guys go ahead, you guys go ahead…”

Janna Sands wanted to say something more but William Scott hung up.

“Why did you hang up the video so quickly? I wanted to say a few more words to Auntie.” Xenia Lewis laughed and bumped William Scott with her shoulder.

William Scott rolled his eyes. “If I say too much, I’ll expose myself. My mom is Yvette Quinn’s fan and she’s always been following her news.”

Xenia Lewis raised her arm and placed it on William Scott’s shoulder. “Auntie still doesn’t know about you and Yvette?”

William Scott shrugged. “I’ve already told her, but she doesn’t believe me.”

Xenia Lewis shook her head and said, “Sigh, Yvette is too much. You have already met her parents, so she has to meet your parents too. This is also the minimum respect.”

“She’s just busy.”

Xenia Lewis said, “No matter how busy she is, she should be able to spare some time for a meal. She’s just not enthusiastic. Hmph, I’m staying over at her place tonight. I have to tell her off.”

“Hehe, that won’t be necessary. Now that she’s seen you, she will at least believe what I said.”

As he spoke, his cell phone beeped with a new notification.

“Son, send me Yvette Quinn’s Telegram handle. I want to add her.”

William Scott was startled. “Why would you add her?”

“What do you mean? Of course I’ll just be chatting with her. She’s my future daughter-in-law. As her mother-in-law, I have to build a good relationship with her and show her more concern.”

“She’s so busy, how would she have the time to chat with you?”

“I’m not stupid. I won’t disturb her when she’s working, but when she’s free at night, she can say a few words. Hurry up, you rascal.”

William Scott looked at Xenia Lewis, and Xenia Lewis burst out laughing. “Why don’t you send my Telegram handle to auntie, and I can chat with her?”

“This…” William Scott was tempted. Xenia Lewis seemed to be easier to communicate with than Yvette Quinn.
