Chapter 813 Buttering Her Up
“Oh, you’re talking about him?” Eleanor placed her hand on the armrest and looked languidly at
Dominik. “It seems that there’s no tacit understanding between us, Dominik. Think about it; Iron Pillar is
Veronica’s cook. If I can make him side with us, won’t he become our pawn? Also, the Ledgers will
never trust him. When they see that we’re close, they’ll try to make use of it. Depending on how we use
him, that guy will be a good pawn.”
Her words made Dominik fall into his thoughts. After pondering for a moment, he squinted his eyes and
asked doubtfully, “Is that really what’s on your mind?”
“Of course.” Eleanor flicked the crumbs off the tips of her fingers. “Do you think I’m into an ordinary
cook?” Certainly, her insincere words were meant to fool him.
A glint flashed across Dominik’s eyes as he fell for her words. After giving it some thought, a smile

your plan?”
“Okay, this is what I think…” Eleanor explained her plan to him solemnly. He listened attentively as it
was apparent that he had taken it seriously. Then, he shared his thoughts with her so that they could
come up with a plot together.
“That’s an excellent idea, Dominik.” Eleanor laughed. After listening to his plan, she gave him a
thumbs-up. “In fact, that’s the best idea I’ve ever heard in a long time. It’s decided, then. I’ll get some
rest now.”
She waved her hand, placed both hands behind her back, and elegantly left the side hall. The instant
she turned away from Dominik, the smile disappeared from her alluring face. Her eyes were cold and
distant as she gave off a dispassionate vibe.

The next morning in Bloomstead, Shirley woke up early and prepared breakfast. She also packed up
some food for Wade’s mother and helped her wash up. When she was done with all that, she headed
to the company in a hurry.
After the usual meeting, she gave Garrick a call and invited him to visit her company. This time, Garrick
directly agreed to it.
Having learned their lesson, Jayden and Shawn wouldn’t dare to make things difficult for Shirley again.
When Shirley led Garrick to take a stroll around the company an hour later, Jayden and Shawn were
shocked. Now, they not only treated her with respect but also buttered her up.
“President Brennan, esports is popular among young people now, and it’s a rising industry. If you work
with our company, you’ll earn a handsome profit.” As Shirley led Garrick on a tour around the company,
she explained to him the current trends in the industry.
“Yes, Pia has told me a lot about it. She was very supportive when she learned that I was going to work

authoritative when it came to working.
He glanced at Jayden and Shawn, then said to Shirley, “The sponsorship is decided, then. I have to go
back now. As for the contract, I’ll inform you to come to my company and sign it when it’s ready.” After
a pause, he asked, “Will it be too troublesome for you?”
“No, no, no! It’s fine, President Brennan.” Shirley repeatedly shook her head. “Since you have work to
do, I won’t hold you up. Thanks for coming over despite your busy schedule.”
“We’re friends, so you don’t have to be overly polite with me.” Garrick gave her a friendly pat on the
shoulder and turned to the others. “See you, Mr. Stoll, Mr. Adler.”
“Thanks for coming over, President Brennan. We’ll see you off.”
“We can’t thank you enough, President Brennan.”
Grinning from ear to ear, the two of them shook hands with Garrick.
They then saw him off and watched him leave in his car. Following that, Jayden and Shawn surrounded
Shirley before asking, “Why are you so close to President Brennan?”
