Bennet mansion.
Simon was holding his computer as he sat on the bay window and browsed through the Creative Literature Website.
"Buzz buzz!"
Just as he was fully focused, his phone suddenly rang.
It was an unfamiliar number. Simon hesitated for a moment before pressing the answer button.
"Hello." A gentle female voice sounded. "Is this Mr. Simon?"
"Yes, it's me."
"Hello, Mr. Simon. I'm the manager of Creative. My name is Mona."
Someone from the Creative Company came looking for him so quickly?
"Hello, Miss Mona. What can I do for you?"
"Haha, Mr. Simon is really forgetful. You bought our company yesterday. There are some important documents that you need to see in person."
"Who was in charge of these jobs in the past?" Simon asked.
He had just taken over the company, so he had to ask about the relevant matters first.
"I'm sorry, it was my oversight. When Mr. Hughes was the president, there were people in charge of these things. Now that Mr. Hughes has left, the managers don't know if you are willing to use them again, so they asked me to ask."
Mr. Hughes should be the person who transferred the company.
Judging from the company's operating status, these people should be very professional.
So, he wanted to keep using them!
Why not?
He didn't want to be like his eldest sister, running a company and exhausting herself to death.
"It's okay. Even if Hughes leaves, the personnel in the company will not change," Simon said.
"Okay, I understand. I'll pass on your message right away."
"Thank you for your hard work. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."
"Please wait a moment!" Mona raised her voice. "There's another important matter. A company wants to acquire the Creative Literature Website. What do you think we should do about it?"
Acquire?
What a joke?
Creative Literature Website was the reason why it was founded in the first place. If they bought the facade, the company would immediately disband.
Besides, it hadn't been twenty-four hours since he took over the company.
How could he agree to the acquisition?
"Not for sale!" Simon said firmly.
Mona was obviously in a difficult position. She stammered, "The other company... is not easy to deal with. Do you want to come out and meet them..."
Simon understood what Mona meant.
Even if they did not agree to the acquisition, the two sides would sit down and have a good talk, giving face to each other.
If the deal didn't work out, they could still be friends.
However, Simon hated bullying people.
Why did they have to buy his website and ask him to treat them to a meal?
They were clearly bullying people!
"I won't see them!" Simon said angrily, "If they want to see me, ask them to come personally! If they dare to make things difficult for you, tell them the exact words!"
"I... understand," Mona agreed obediently. "There are still a few important documents. I've sent them to your email."
"Got it."
After saying that, Simon hung up the phone.
"Ding! Ding! Ding!"
The email notification rang and Simon clicked on it.
As he read it, he remembered that he was going to be acquired.
The market value of the Creative Company was 100 million. It was considered a medium-sized company in San Tico City.
It had been established a few years and its development momentum was fluctuating. However, it was moving forward and had long established itself in San Tico City.
From what Mona said, it seemed that the other party still wanted to make a barbaric acquisition.
Who was so confident?
Simon thought about the big companies in San Tico, but he had no idea.
"Thud! Thud!"
Suddenly, a muffled sound of something being smashed came from downstairs. It was exactly two hits.
Strangely, after the sound, it was quiet downstairs, as if it was a deserted street in the middle of the night.
Why was no one there to take a look?
Simon opened the door and walked out, puzzled.
Just as he reached the second floor, a warm hand grabbed Simon's clothes and pulled him into a room.
Simon lost his balance and fell to the ground.
"Second Sister, why are you so strong!" Lydia exclaimed softly, "What if you break it?"
Elizabeth quickly helped Simon up and said gently, "I'm sorry, Simon, I didn't mean it!"
Rubbing his hurt thigh, Simon waved his hand and said, "Second Sister, I'm fine, but why are you pulling me?"
After saying that, Simon quickly blinked his eyes twice.
Because he saw Lydia wearing her silk pajamas inside out, the corner of her skirt was still hanging on her waist, revealing her long white legs.
There was also aqua blue...
Simon lowered his head and pretended not to see.
What kind of emergency was it that she wore her pajamas inside out?
Only then did Lydia realize that her clothes were disheveled. She hurriedly pulled a thin blanket from the bed and draped it over her.
With a red face, she said, "It's so embarrassing. Second Sister, why didn't you tell me!"
"I didn't have time." Elizabeth covered her mouth and laughed. "In any case, don't make a sound. Just hide here with me."
Hide?
Who were they hiding?
Seeing the two of them as if they were facing a great enemy, it seemed like they had entered a state of battle.
Simon tilted his head and asked in puzzlement, "What happened?"
"Didn't you hear the two 'thuds' downstairs just now?" Lydia said in horror, "That was the sound of Eldest Sister throwing her high heels!"
"Every time Eldest Sister is in a bad mood, she will throw her high heels when she enters the door. Just Chanel alone has broken more than ten pairs of high heels!"
As she said that, she revealed a pained expression and said that she missed those shoes.
Seeing that she was immersed in the world of high heels, Simon knew that he would not be able to get anything out of her.
He turned around and asked Elizabeth.
"Eldest Sis is not happy. We should comfort her."
Elizabeth shook her head. "Please don't. When Eldest Sis is angry, please don't pass by her. Otherwise, we all will be implicated."
Then, she looked at Lydia sympathetically and continued.
"One time, when Lydia just came back from outside, she bumped into the angry Eldest Sis. Then, Eldest Sis caught her doing sales at the company without any explanation!"
"You know how hard it is to do sales. Most importantly, she didn't give her a single salary!"
"So every time, they would hide in my room."
Ah?
That was really bad!
Simon didn't know whether to laugh or cry. His sister's way of punishing people was too cute.
"In short, in the future, if you hear the sound of high heels falling, hide and don't come out!" Elizabeth kindly reminded him.
"Thank you, Second Sister." Simon smiled. "But we can't just leave our sister alone, right?"
As he spoke, Simon walked towards the door.
He always felt that Jane that his sisters talked about was different from what he saw with his own eyes.
She was obviously gentle and considerate. How could she be so terrifying?
Simon felt that they had overreacted and wanted to go downstairs to take a look first.
"Don't! Simon!" Lydia stopped him. "If you're captured by Eldest Sister, you won't be able to get out of the company!"
Simon shrugged and said, "Don't worry, Eldest Sister isn't an unreasonable person."
"You don't understand, an angry Eldest Sister is a cold-blooded female demon!" Lydia shouted.
"Who are you talking about?"
The door opened. Jane stood at the door with a frosty face, staring straight at Lydia.
"Hi... Eldest Sister..." Lydia was like a mouse seeing a cat when she saw Jane, hiding behind Simon.
She thought that Jane would definitely not let her off this time.
Maybe she would lock her in the warehouse to broadcast live, and then she would not be able to be with Simon!
Lydia was heartbroken. She hugged Simon's waist and refused to let go.
"Eldest Sister, why are you here?" Elizabeth changed the topic.
"I'm here to look for Simon." Jane rubbed the space between her eyebrows.
When they heard this, their hearts skipped a beat. They looked at Simon sympathetically.
Brother, you would be finished...
