Chapter 161 Janet Makes Trouble

Oscar had been telling Hannah to do lots of stuff for him the whole night.

At last, Hannah had been so responsive that she could sit up on bed unconsciously when he just

turned over. Then she would wait for his request for drinking or peeing.

Things kept going like that until the alarm clock rang in the morning.

Hannah climbed up from the bed desperately.

She thought she even didn't sleep soundly for one hour through the whole night.

She had to go to work now, but man who had been torturing her for the whole night, was still sleeping

like a log. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

At that moment, she was dying to strangle him. But she couldn't bring herself to wake him up while she

was about to pull back the blanket.

She thought Oscar was like a demon. In fact, she hated his guts but she just couldn't do anything to

hurt him.

In sulks, Hannah brushed her teeth and washed her face, then she put on makeup, got dressed and

left.

She even walked on tiptoe and closed the door quietly when she got out of the room.

Max had got breakfast ready for her when she came downstairs.

"Good morning, Mrs Wells." Max respected her all the time.

"Morning, Max." Hannah put on a light smile.

She sat at the dining table, eating breakfast and going through the current news on her phone.

Suddenly, she was attracted by something. Starlight Mall was going to enter the market in Kensbury

and build a premium business district.

Out of the sensitiveness to the market, Hannah clicked it open to read the content.

Starlight Group was specialized in chain supermarkets with its footprint covering all over the country. It

was well known among ordinary people. For so many years, it had never set foot in the high-end

consumer market or built any business district. They simply entered the business districts, then

monopolized the department supermarkets, which was their traditional operation pattern. As far as

Hannah could remember, and at least told from her ten more years' life experience, she'd never heard

Starlight Group wanted to build its own business district.

And, she remembered the CEO of Starlight Group was some Mr Burke.

Hannah exited the news page immediately and googled Starlight Group.

The CEO of the group was Carl Burke. His sons and daughters... His second daughter was Janet

Burke.

Hannah was suddenly enlightened.

She entered the news page once again and checked carefully where Janet was gonna build the

business district. The address would be the next stop of the Light Building on the metro, which meant

that Starlight Group absolutely had a better location than the Light Building. What's more, they had

tried very hard to spread the words and hype it at the very beginning. Most importantly, they had been

running the supermarket chains for years and they'd got tons of customers and supporters already, so it

would be as easy as a pie to out-compete the Light Building, which was literally still an unfinished

building.

Hannah looked bad.

Did Janet set herself against her on purpose?

But she did admire Janet to some extent, because she never played dirty tricks behind her back. She

simply acted against her openly.

Maybe, she had been too confident.

Hannah finished eating breakfast quickly and left for the office immediately.

She had to change many strategies once she knew someone was directing at them on purpose.

Rose had been waiting for her in the office when she arrived.

"I've just read the news that Starlight Group was gonna build a business district near Light Building. So

far, they've made publicity stunts in all major medias and attracted many investors. I think their move

this time has a great impact on us. They'll take all our investors and customers once they make it.

Then, it will be too difficult for us to attract investments." Rose reported.

Hannah nodded. She also knew that very clearly.

She was also clear that Janet spread the words all over the internet before construction only to stop

Light Building from attracting investors smoothly. After all, what businessmen cared most about was

profit. Once they could gain profits hands down, they might consider connections less, and it would be

too hard to turn the scale then. Therefore, as the news that Starlight Mall would open quotation came

out, investors would have to struggle and decide whether they should open stores in which of the two

business districts. Anyway, these two were too close, and there must be a rat race between them.

Customers liked to follow trend, and they would possibly flood into the crowded places. Then, more and

more of them would go with the stream. As a result, there would be two extremes. One business district

would be packed while the other would be the other way around. The investors might suffer great

losses once they entered the wrong market. So, no one dared to make the decision rashly under such

circumstance.

Besides, she was also wondering whether Janet had known her bet with the company's higher-ups

team and that was why she disrupted her on purpose now. Anyway, it didn't matter whether Starlight

Mall would be a success or not, but the hype and publicity stunts they'd made, did make it harder for us

to attract investors. In that case, three months or half a year would be gone soon. By then, she'd have

been kicked out of Cooper Group and screwed by Janet, who even didn't bother to build the business

district of Starlight Mall or waste any money or energy.

Hannah smiled coldly.

Well, that was a good plan.

Hannah rolled her eyes and said, "No matter what Starlight is gonna do, tell Mila, Mann and Wang to

stick with their jobs. Do what they should do!"

"Got it, Ms Hannah."

Rose got out of the office.

Hannah sat on the office chair. Anyway, she wasn't as confident as what she'd told Rose.

After all, the clock is ticking.

She couldn't afford to play the time game.

So, she couldn't sit there and await for her doom. She had no choice but to take the initiative.

She was thinking what they could do to make the investors choose them over Starlight Group.

In the afternoon, Mila knocked at the door and went in the office.

"Ms Hannah." Her voice sounded anxious.

"Mm." Hannah looked at her.

"I've applied for the advertising campaign from the Advertising and Media Department yesterday, but

they just replied and rejected the application." Mila said quickly and hastily.

"Reason?"

"They said, it's a waste of resources to advertise the project of Light Building now. At present, the news

that Starlight Group is gonna build a business district will have a huge impact on our project. Money

and resources will be down the drain if we advertise it now, because the investors won't choose us

when they take a wait-and-see attitude, and we'll lose the perfect timing to create the publicity stunts

when the investors begin to make choices. Their advice is that, we should do the advertising campaign

later, and now we should keep an eye on the market situation, and wait and see what to do next."

That sounded very reasonable.

Hannah stood up from the office chair and said, "Go for the director of Advertising and Media

Department now. I'll speak to him face to face."

"OK." Mila caught up with her instantly.

Hannah got out of the office.

Mary watched Hannah leaving hastily and put on a cold smile.

Then she hurried back to her office and called Roger, "I think Hannah's left for the Advertising and

Media Department. I heard that they've rejected her application of advertisement."

Roger smiled indifferently. He knew she would be rejected.

After all, he had arranged it. He would definitely make it hard for Hannah.

"OK." Roger looked cunning, "Your top priority now is to bribe and win some trusted followers. I'll take

care of the other things."

"OK, Dad."

Roger hung up the phone. Surely, he was happy.

He swore that he wouldn't let Hannah achieve greater success, but he was still lacking of confidence

because Hannah had suddenly become so unexpectedly strong and capable.

Surprisingly, someone came to him to seek cooperation when he was at his wits end.
