Unexpected Marriage: She is the Sugar Mommy!-Chapter 370: A Trivial Matter
After returning to the villa, Seraphina Sinclair immediately signed the new product contract with Alex and planned to promote the new products.
Irene Rowe sat beside her, quietly reminding, "Boss, what should we do about the company here? Several major projects worth billions have fallen apart, and a few contracts that have been long-term collaborations suddenly withdrew investments, our company’s financial situation might soon be in trouble."
"Gather the heads of each department for a meeting at three o’clock in the afternoon." As soon as this matter was brought up, Seraphina’s face instantly looked grim.
She had founded several companies and hired the most elite talents from various countries at high salaries, yet she didn’t expect the headquarters would face such a situation, which left Seraphina perplexed.
Irene could also understand Seraphina’s feelings.
However, company issues are not just the matter of a single person.
"Have you found out what the situation is?" Seraphina’s brows tightened, her hand flipping through documents speedily.
"We’ve found some reasons, but I believe these problems shouldn’t cause such a large reaction, there might be deeper issues yet to be uncovered." Irene placed a stack of documents in front of Seraphina.
After Seraphina picked up the documents, Irene slowly explained, "Though the apparent reason is found to be due to our company’s executive’s personal lifestyle issues, in my opinion, these problems aren’t significant."
Personal lifestyle issues can affect the company to some extent.
But how many CEOs of listed companies can claim to have squeaky clean lives?
Thus, Irene believes that’s not the reason for the partners withdrawing investment.
Seraphina held the same view, poor conduct is a personal issue, some may mind, but others may not, as long as the product quality holds, there will still be consumers.
"In that case, it must be someone else causing trouble, keep investigating for me." Seraphina rubbed her aching temple, her tone slightly heavy.
Over these days, issues arose one after another, making her head feel swollen.
Given she’s not been in the best health, constantly being busy with work without proper rest, she’s been feeling increasingly dizzy these past few days.
Having just dealt with the pile of documents in front of her, Seraphina felt a bit weary, waving a hand to Irene, "You head out first, I want some time alone."
Irene hesitated, worried about Seraphina, but Seraphina offered her a smile, "Alright, there’s nothing that can defeat me, don’t look so concerned."
"But..." Irene was still uneasy.
"No buts, surely you believe in me, don’t you?" Confidence shone in Seraphina’s eyes, temporary hardships only aid growth, though in difficulty, she felt no fear.
Irene reasoned with herself, for so many years, there hadn’t been any issue that could defeat Seraphina. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
Whatever Seraphina sets her mind to accomplish, she will achieve.
This was precisely why Irene chose to follow her.
With this realization, Irene felt assured and left.
After Irene departed, Seraphina left the study and returned to her bedroom to take a nap on the large bed.
For some reason, she recently experiences unbearable pain as soon as she uses her mind.
She rubbed her temples again, hoping to alleviate the pain.
Regardless of her attempts, it was futile, the splitting headache nearly caused her to faint.
Until she felt the warmth of a hot towel on her forehead, awakening her slightly.
Struggling to open her eyes, a strikingly handsome face appeared before her.
"Desmond Fairchild, why are you here? What about the two kids and Grandma..." Seraphina struggled to sit up, worrying as she realized Desmond’s presence meant no one was caring for the children and their elderly grandparent.
Desmond pressed her back onto the bed, his slender fingers touched his ruby lips, "Silly girl, rest well, the matters at home have long been arranged, you need not worry."
"Are you certain?" Seraphina seemed skeptical, having just arrived at Diamond Island, how could he have made arrangements so quickly?
"What? You don’t trust me?" Desmond lightly tapped Seraphina’s forehead, his deep eyes full of affection.
With Desmond beside her, Seraphina felt much more at ease. She reclined, her tone softening a lot, "Call home and check it out, I’m still a bit worried."
"Alright, I’ll call right away." To reassure Seraphina, Desmond promptly made a video call to the Fairchild Family estate.
The call was answered by Jude Sinclair, at eight in the evening, he hastily exited the bathroom upon hearing the sound.
In the video, Jude’s hair was dripping wet, wrapped in a blue bathrobe, watching Desmond Fairchild with curiosity, "Dad, what’s up?"
"Nothing much, your mommy is just worried about you and your sister, so she asked me to check in." As Desmond spoke, he aimed the camera at Seraphina, who immediately pulled off the hot towel and sat up, her fatigue replaced with a bright smile.
Seeing this, Jude blinked his clear, big eyes, "Mommy, we’re perfectly fine, don’t worry."
"That’s good, you’re the big brother, remember to take good care of Pomelo. Also your great-grandmother, while your dad and I aren’t home, you need to substitute us in looking after them."
Jude, portraying a little man’s demeanor, pounded his chest, "Mommy, you can rest easy, I will definitely care for my sister and great-grandmother."
Observing Jude’s energetic demeanor, Seraphina felt reassured.
"Oh, how’s school? Have you been going lately?" Seraphina suddenly remembered this matter.
Jude shook his head, "Not much to learn at school, I took a leave for a while, temporarily not going to school. Dad said it’s safer staying at home until you return, I absolutely shouldn’t step out."
"Your dad’s right, until we return, be sure to protect your sister and great-grandmother well, should any issue arise, alert me and your dad immediately."
Even knowing Jude is very sensible and significantly more intelligent than his peers, as a mother, Seraphina forever sees him as a child.
No matter how smart and resourceful, he is merely a six-year-old.
"Mommy, when will you and dad be back? Eric Holt frequently visits Grandma lately, although outwardly nothing seems amiss, I get a feeling this person is problematic." Jude’s sixth sense was very keen, sensing something abnormal in Eric’s frequent visits to Old Mrs. Fairchild.
Seraphina and Desmond exchanged looks, "I’ll have someone install surveillance at home, go find your second brother, ask him to work on a monitoring system."
"Such a small matter to bother second brother? I can do it myself." Not that Jude was arrogant, but regarding a monitoring system, he was completely capable.
