A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 1551

“If you have an appointment with Mr. Ke, please wait in the reception room for a bit. He's still in a meeting right now, but I'll call you as soon as he's finished,“ the secretary uttered with a cheerful smile. Her beauty stunned Bill's henchman and caused him to feel embarrassed. It was as if he had forgotten he was angry in the first place.

“Yes, we have an appointment with him,“ the man confidently replied. Since it was his first time meeting this wonderful woman, he tried his best to come across as a respectable and modest man.

“If that's the case, I'd like to apologize on Mr. Ke's behalf. He is in an important overseas investment conference and can't be disturbed at the moment. But don't worry, he's very professional and never misses an appointment. I assure you that the moment he finishes, he'll come to you as soon as he can,“ the secretary explained while pointing the man in the direction of the reception room. Even though Bill hated waiting, the man didn't want to ruin his first impression on this fine lady. That was why he simply nodded in agreement and left.

The man went back to his group and told everyone that they needed to wait in the reception room first. When they arrived, they were surprised to see that it was just a small office with a few chairs and tables.

Everyone sat down and waited for about an hour. During that time, several of Bill's men grew impatient. They left with the excuse of smoking a cigarette but didn't come back at all.

Two hours later, everyone who remained couldn't help but feel sleepy. They were so bored from staring at the wall and talking with one another.

By the third hour, Bill didn't want to wait anymore. With a disgruntled look on his face, he angrily ordered one of his men to talk to the secretary once again.

“Go and ask Louis if he even wants to meet us or not. We've been very understanding of his busy schedule but I won't be taken for granted. If he doesn't meet us right now, I will never talk to him again.“ Bill was so angry at this point that his blood pressure had started to rise.

The man rushed over to the front desk but his face flushed the moment he laid his eyes upon the secretary a second time. He tried his best to look manly in an attempt to hide his embarrassment. The man conveyed Bill's order and even added that it was urgent, but he was still rejected in the end. When he came back, he tried to make excuses so that Bill wouldn't get angry at the secretary. “She said that Louis is still in a meeting.“

As soon as he said those words, Bill roared in anger. While forming both his hands into fists, he exclaimed, “Louis, what a shameless man you are. I'll make sure you regret treating me like a pushover.“

Filled with rage, Bill and his men stormed past the front desk. Just when they were about to enter Louis' office, more than a dozen security guards came out of nowhere and ordered them to stop. The guards formed a neat line in front of the door, ready to draw their weapons if needed.

“Louis, who do you think you are? You don't know who you're messing with! You young bloods need to learn respect! Don't think these measly guards will scare me. I swear I'll make you kneel in front of me and beg for mercy!“ Bill absolutely lost it and shouted with all his might. He couldn't keep his composure anymore and continued to curse while pointing at the door.

But before he could finish, the glass door in front of him finally opened. A group of employees walked out with stressed-out looks on their faces. It was as if their souls had been sucked out from being in a meeting for so long.

With his eyes half-closed, Louis teased his employees. “Wow, that meeting was so boring that I almost fell asleep. Hey, secretary, find someone else to take my place for these kinds of things. I don't want to do them anymore.“

The playful look on Louis' face infuriated Bill even more. With his blood at the boiling point, he shouted at him. “Louis! I've been waiting to talk to you for three hours. Since you were so bored with your meeting, how about you square off with one of my men? That should definitely wake you up.“

As soon as Bill was finished shouting, his men tried their best to look intimidating. They puffed out their chests and formed their hands into fists.

“Mr. Liu, I'm sorry, but I don't take business affairs that seriously. To tell you the truth, I really don't want to be a billionaire. But being one is the only way I can get other people to listen to me. That's why I have no choice but to try my best to stay awake in these meetings!“ Louis teasingly replied with a fake smile on his face. It was clear that he was trying to anger Bill even more.

Louis' words were obviously referring to the time when Bill was beaten to within an inch of his life. This made Bill a little wary of what to say next. As a result, he spoke in a soft, calm voice. “Mr. Ke, now that you're finished with that conference, do you want to proceed with our meeting?“
