Housewife Gone Wild by Thanddeus Embereley novel Chapter 82

Chapter 82

My heart felt colder by the day, but her ignoring me no longer made me angry,

The renovation of the Harmonia Hotel was progressing rapidly because we paid well, and everything was running smoothly. With three months of renovation underway, I was already in discussions with operators about promotional activities.

When Tracy found out I had spent a significant amount on advertising, she opposed it during a meeting. Her reasoning was that good products don’t need deliberate promotion; doing so could cheapen them and lower their perceived value.

Jared had stormed off yesterday because of me. Hearing Tracy’s objection, I furrowed my brows. I worried that after spending the night with her, Jared might listen to her and cut my budget.

Jared, sitting at the head of the table, turned his gaze to me. “What’s your take on this?”

I immediately stood up and opened my prepared promotion plan. I emphasized that the future is about diversification, with the advent of online platforms and the reign of traffic, making promotion essential.

Jared, being at the helm of the company, was actually sharper than me. So, when I mentioned “traffic is king,” I saw his eyebrows noticeably twitch in approval.

Tracy’s objective was cost–saving for the company, but there was an underlying intention to restrain me.

Fortunately, Jared didn’t cut my promotional budget. Instead, he called me into his office to ask if I was confident. I couldn’t guarantee success, but I assured him I’d do my best..

Seated behind his desk, Jared leaned back with his long legs crossed, playing with a Rubik’s cube in one hand while scrutinizing me. “Where did you get this ‘traffic is king‘ idea from?”

I thought, ‘If I told you the truth, it would probably shock you.‘ So I made up a story about market research.

Jared’s eyes showed a hint of suspicion. “Do you have a mentor guiding you? Who is it?”

I looked at him, puzzled. “What mentor? I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Is it Nathan?” Jared suddenly dropped the name.
