CHAPTER 72: CHAPTER 72: THIS YEAR’S HUSBAND

"These are the new members we hired for the Caelan Sea Project. Once they pass the two-week trial period, they’ll officially become new employees of our company and new partners for the Caelan Sea Project."

Miles Jacobs introduced the two new employees to the other meeting members, while also winking playfully at Kyle Keaton.

The general idea was him taking credit in front of Kyle Keaton: "See how well I did? And I didn’t forget to open the back door for our main sponsor’s wife!"

That’s right, originally there was only one spot available yesterday.

And Yasmin Zane perfectly met the standards they were looking for.

Initially, they were only going to hire Yasmin Zane alone.

But the critical thing was, the main sponsor’s wife was also part of the interview process.

Especially since Miles Jacobs was in the know, it was natural that he couldn’t just ignore the main sponsor’s wife.

Miles Jacobs thought that keeping the main sponsor’s wife would definitely win the heart of the main sponsor, even though he had seen that their relationship wasn’t so good before.

But in his eyes, the main sponsor’s wife’s face was truly a masterpiece, something he couldn’t get enough of looking at.

Working in front of that face would surely improve the main sponsor’s mood.

So he directly had the HR department modify the acceptance list, even though during the interview the main sponsor’s wife spent most of the time chatting up the main sponsor.

But now, looking at the expressionless Kyle Keaton, it seemed like he wanted to eat him alive.

Could it be that the main sponsor doesn’t actually want to look at that beautiful face all the time?

As Miles Jacobs was pondering this possibility, July Quinn and Yasmin Zane were already seated at the end of the conference table according to the HR manager’s arrangement.

The meeting officially began.

Yasmin Zane was very serious, listening intently, and even taking notes from time to time.

July Quinn, however, was laid-back, even sneaking glances at Kyle Keaton.

She took this job at The Jacobs Group during her break still because of Kyle Keaton.

But this time, it wasn’t to flirt with him, but to protect him, in case Nathan Jacobs comes again to mess with Kyle Keaton.

Anyway, since this matter was something she brought upon Kyle Keaton, she would help him solve it.

As July Quinn was glancing at Kyle Keaton, he seemed to notice and looked back at her.

Their eyes met, and July Quinn gave him a charming smile.

He, on the other hand, pulled back his gaze with a stern face.

July Quinn: "..."

What the heck?

Didn’t they get along well during dinner yesterday?

Why did he suddenly act like he doesn’t know her today?

Men’s hearts are like needles in the sea!

Being ignored, July Quinn felt a bit upset and simply took out her phone to play games.

Seeing this, Yasmin Zane couldn’t help but sneer.

With that attitude, even if she’s a graduate from a prestigious university, there’s no way she could stay.

The two-hour meeting finally came to an end.

At this time, the HR manager assigned Yasmin Zane a new task.

"Yasmin Zane, please organize the meeting materials."

"Sure."

Yasmin Zane, as proud as a peacock, deliberately circled around July Quinn to get the materials.

But July Quinn didn’t even glance at her, let alone show any envy.

This made Yasmin Zane quite frustrated.

Then, the HR manager instructed, "July Quinn, go help Assistant Keaton organize the files."

"Okay."

July Quinn quickly followed Kyle Keaton into his office.

"Wow, hubby, your office is pretty nice. They’re practically treating you like a deity, even giving you such exquisite Tree Jade."

As soon as July Quinn entered Kyle Keaton’s office, she started looking around as if she were part of a tour group.

Alright, she immediately noticed that everything in Kyle Keaton’s office, from the display cabinets to the decorative items, was quite valuable.

The thing that caught July Quinn’s eye the most was the Tree Jade on Kyle Keaton’s desk.

This type of item is formed from ancient trees, believed to have the power to protect homes and boost fortune.

It’s said that in the current market, it’s priceless. Yet, it’s placed in an assistant’s office?

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that her husband, even as an assistant, was greatly underestimated.

While July Quinn was pondering about Kyle Keaton’s identity, Kyle Keaton was also scrutinizing the woman leaning against his desk.

Honestly, she looked more alluring in professional attire compared to her usual loose T-shirt dress.

Especially with her subtly revealing neckline...

Realizing certain restricted images were popping up in his mind again, Kyle Keaton averted his gaze, asking with a serious tone, "What are you doing at The Jacobs Group?"

"To protect you, so that Nathan Jacobs doesn’t come to trouble you again."

July Quinn replied without turning her head, still engrossed with the Tree Jade, seemingly very interested.

"If you’re here to seduce me, just say so. It’s not like it’s your first time doing this."

The man’s voice had a chill to it, mixed with a sense of disdain.

July Quinn: "..."

This newly-found husband really lacks quality.

He keeps assuming she has ulterior motives!

Does she come across as someone with no public decency?
