He Clings to Me Every Night - Chapter 768

Chapter 768: Chapter 768: Taking Things out of Context

The person warned again: “The man we’re dealing with is no ordinary person, he’s Daniel Marshall!”

Olivia Jenkins retorted in a cold voice, “So what? This is the film crew of the Jenkins Group, what has the Marshall Corporation got to do with it?”

“Could you and your husband possibly be…”

“Work is work. Please don’t mix it up with personal matters. Work should be treated professionally, do you understand? Don’t disturb me unnecessarily if it’s not related to work. I just want to make a good show. Do you have an objection to my decision?”

The person was momentarily speechless, unable to find a response.

Chief Jenkins, working on the film crew, was impartial and always did what she said. There was no room for doubt.

Chief Jenkins was always busy and she didn’t like to be disturbed. Moreover, as they were rushing for the filming schedule today, she probably didn’t have time for sentimentality.

After a pause, the person left to deliver the message to Daniel Marshall.

“Mr. Marshall, I’m truly sorry, our Chief Jenkins is just too busy and has no time to receive you. She is quite strict while at work and we don’t allow outsiders on our set. See those supportive fans? We don’t allow them in either for fear of disrupting the shooting schedule. I hope you understand!”

Straining his neck to get a glimpse inside and not seeing Olivia Jenkins, Daniel Marshall seemed a bit disheartened, “I understand. I won’t disturb you all now. Can you please hand her this breakfast? She’s so focused on work that I’m worried she might forget to eat.”

“Sure, I’ll pass on your breakfast. Mr. Marshall, we’ll be filming till noon. It’s too hot then and we’ll call it a day. You can come over at that time.”

“Got it, thank you very much!”

“Mr. Marshall, you’re welcome. I’ll excuse myself.”

The person left. Daniel Marshall stood at the perimeter, not daring to just barge in.

There were security personnel nearby watching, preventing fans from sneaking in and disrupting the filming.

Simon Howard frowned, itching to say something, but didn’t dare to speak up.

This couple had been through so much, he hoped they could soon live a peaceful and tranquil life, without more tribulations.

…

Suddenly, a stockholder initiated an emergency stockholders’ meeting to hear the financial reports for the first two quarters.

Although Daniel Marshall was not on-site, he participated in the meeting via video link.

After the meeting, a minority shareholder spoke privately to President Michael Marshall.

“Daniel Marshall spends so much time outside of the office, it may look bad. Mr. President, maybe you should remind him?”

With a piercing gaze, President Michael Marshall responded immediately, “You people are really well-informed! The investment agreement clearly states that you do not have decision-making power in the company. The Marshalls are in charge of the Corporation, are you now trying to train me?

Who said Daniel Marshall spends all his time outside the office? As the second in command, shouldn’t he go out to seek business opportunities? Are you insinuating that our leader is idling? Did Daniel Marshall harm the Marshall Corporation in any way? How come I don’t know anything about it?”

The minor shareholder smiled faintly and continued, “I heard that Mr. Marshall was seen in Discovery County, where Mrs. Marshall is also filming a television show. I hope Daniel Marshall isn’t misusing company resources.”

“It seems like you didn’t get the whole news, quite selective of you. What you’re thinking, I dare not say, but I suspect you’re deliberately targeting Daniel Marshall. What are you up to?

We’re all in the same boat. If Marshall Corporation’s stock price fluctuates, what’s your actual motive? Daniel Marshall is indeed in Discovery County, he reported to me. He is conducting field research, he is expanding the influence of Marshall Corporation.”
