My Ideat Ceo Ex Chose His Mistress... Now I Run His Rival’s Empire Novel - Chapter 14

Chapter 14 "Excellent! I'll give you five percent of Reed Group's shares, make you advertising director, double your salary, plus year-end bonuses. Any objections?" Ethan made his offer, and Charlotte nodded. "No objections." "When can you start?" Ethan curved his thin lips into a smile, mischievous yet lazy. "I can't wait to see Mason's face when he learns you're working for me." "You're overthinking. He probably won't care at all." "You don't understand him well enough. He'll definitely care!

Rest well. I'll pick you up tomorrow for work." "No need. Take me now. I want to review your advertising department's materials as soon as possible." Charlotte stood with her crutch. Ethan's handsome brows furrowed. "Ms. West, which is more important-your health or work?" "Both are important." Charlotte looked up, her eyes dimmed. "My mother is still in intensive care. I need money." Now divorced, she needed to rely on herself more than ever.

Seeing the determination in her eyes, Ethan's stern face softened. "Don't worry. I'll take responsibility for your mother's medical care." "No need." Charlotte refused without hesitation.

Ethan's eyes flashed with sympathy, and he sighed. "You don't have to pretend to be strong." "I don't think we know each other that well yet." Charlotte walked toward the hospital exit.

"Not at all." Charlotte shook her head. "It's actually quite good." "For you to say 'quite good,' it must really be decent." Ethan came over, sitting beside her. He noticed she had nearly finished reviewing the advertising department's materials, with dense notes written all over them.
