Chapter 317 Smart and Capable
After the last incident, Charlotte’s favorable impression of the Chamber of Commerce had been
negative. This time, if it weren’t for the repeated guarantees from the bosses who were familiar with
her, she wouldn’t have come at all.
Charlotte didn’t dress up too much. She only wore a simple and neat women’s suit and a very
aggressive makeup.
As soon as she entered the door, Dodd Bulwer, the new Chamber of Commerce President, came up to
her. “Miss Clinton! Nice to meet you.”
Dodd was a round middle-aged man. When he saw Charlotte, he smiled brightly. Although his attitude
was very enthusiastic, his eyes were very upright, which was completely different from that of the
former president, Zack.
Charlotte relaxed her guard slightly and shook hands with him immediately. “Nice to meet you, Mr.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBulwer.”
“In fact, I wanted to invite you to dinner a long time ago, but I was delayed because I just took over the
chamber of commerce with too many things to do. This time, I took the opportunity to see you at the
banquet. I hope you don’t mind,” Dodd said apologetically.
Charlotte shook her head. “You don’t have to be so polite. We will have many opportunities to
cooperate in the future.”
Seeing that Charlotte really had no grudge against the Chamber of Commerce and her attitude towards
him was acceptable, Dodd breathed a sigh of relief silently.
It was not that Dodd was too flattering, but that no one in the entire Atlanta dared to look down on
Charlotte now!
Not to mention the former Chamber of Commerce President, Zack, he was not in good health and the
Smith Group had contributed a lot to it. It was only a matter of time before he stepped down.
“And the Pope family, which used to be one of the top families in Atlanta. After offending Charlotte, both
father and son were put in prison. Now the illegitimate son in power is actually very close to Charlotte.
There are even rumors that Charlotte bought a lot of shares of the Pope family when something
happened to them.”
If he still wanted to offend Charlotte under such circumstances, he must be crazy.
After chatting for a while, Dodd was called away by others, and Charlotte was surrounded by many
bosses to inquire about the news of the Holiday Resort in public and in private.
Charlotte didn’t know if it was her illusion, but it seemed that the people who came to the banquet were
much more polite to her.
“I wonder if I’ll have a chance to talk to you in the future, Miss Clinton.”
Just as Charlotte was annoyed, a male voice interrupted everyone’s inquiry and looked at them with a
faint smile.
Seeing the man, Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief and said to the crowd apologetically, “Sorry, I’ll
leave with him first.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was Trevor.
Although the people present did not know much about Trevor, they could tell that he was not someone
to be trifled with in just a few months.
After leaving the crowd, Charlotte let out a long sigh of relief. “They are so talkative.”
Trevor took a glass of champagne from the waiter and joked, “You fell the former president and the
Pope Group from power by yourself, and the one who offended you last time is still in prison. They’re
all smart men.”
Charlotte glared at him angrily, “You are the one behind the scenes, but now you push me out to take
the blame. Doesn’t your conscience hurt?”
“Of course not,” Trevor said casually. “Thank you.”
The two of them chatted casually, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Many people saw this scene, including Joe, who had just brought Jack into the hall.
His face was gloomy.
Jack felt his heart missed a beat. He had never thought that he would encounter such a scene! He felt
that the air pressure around him was getting lower and lower. He even thought that it was too late to
pretend to be sick and ask for leave now?
