Chapter 101
Jason continued, “Mr. Ludwig rejected it. He said Goodwin Corporation has made a lot of preparations and is more suitable to take on the project.
“He also said that Ludwig Corporation would assist Goodwin Corporation in the later stages of the project if they needed it.”
Brendan knew that Dennis cared about the project in South Glistenville, so he had not intervened in it from the beginning.
If he had been interested, the project would have long been taken up by Ludwig Corporation and the Incidents between the Goodwins and Sabellas wouldn’t have happened.
Once Jason finished speaking, Naomi only gave a small smile in response. She was surprised that Brendan had rejected the invitation.
Seeing this, Jason seized the opportunity. “Ms. Goodwin, Mr. Ludwig cares a lot about you. Besides, there are many things you don’t know.”
Naomi giggled upon noticing that Jason was painting Brendan in a good light again.
“Mr. Russell, now that I’ve seen how diligent and responsible you are, I can’t help but wish to recruit you to the Goodwin Corporation.”
Jason gave her a blank look. “Enough with the jokes, Ms. Goodwin.”
100.!!
He really liked Naomi’s personality, and Brendan’s friends would agree with him too.
If it weren’t for what happened three years ago, Brendan and Naomi would have led a happy life together, and they would have even had a child by now.
Half an hour later, Naomi arrived at Ludwig Corporation. She was taken directly to a vacant office.
The desk was piled with documents and reports, as well as a stack of expense forms.
While Naomi was still puzzled, the secretary explained, ‘Ms. Goodwin, Mr. Ludwig wants you to personally review and sign these application reports, contracts, and expense forms to ensure there won’t be any
mistakes.”
Naomi felt speechless. “Don’t you have an administration department or a legal department?”
The secretary nodded. “Both departments have already signed the documents. Mr. Ludwig said that you will need to sign too, or he won’t rest assured.”
Naomi sighed. “Was the company’s former legal department in charge of this as well? Do they need to do
the audit forms?”
The secretary looked guilty. “It seems like it.”

For a moment, Naomi was furious. The contract documents were within their working scope, but the application reports and expense forms were not!
Brendan was obviously doing it on purpose and didn’t want her to have the time to take on Maximus’s
case.
Naomi threw her bag aside. “Brendan is so annoying.”
In fact, she wouldn’t have accepted Maximus‘ case even if Brendan hadn’t pulled such a trick. She already had too many cases on hand.
Seeing this, the secretary muttered softly, “I’ll go make you some coffee, Ms. Goodwin.”
After a while, the secretary brought coffee and some snacks. Then, she left Naomi to work peacefully.
She shouldn’t kill the goose that laid the golden egg.
Naomi had already signed the contract, and considering it also involved the law firm, she didn’t want to argue with Brendan.
So, she sat at her desk and busied herself with work.
She was willing to review and sign the contract documents.
But when she saw that she had to sign the forms to buy office supplies and even for the cleaning department to buy a mop and rags, Naomi had had enough.
Did Brendan think she had nothing better to do?
Once she finished signing one of the forms, she got up and went to find Brendan.
Naomi pushed open the office door and saw Brendan inside. She grinned. “You’re here.”
Brendan looked up from his desk. Annoyance washed over him when he thought of how he had been taken advantage of by Naomi the night before.
“What do you want?”
Naomi approached the desk and slammed a few forms in front of Brendan. “Brendan, you’re making a mountain out of a molehill!”
Brendan
huffed. “You are indeed something else.
She had seduced him! Then, she had fallen asleep immediately just as they were about to do it!
He had never seen such shamelessness before. She was the only one enjoying it.
