The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

After Kathleen wrapped her figure in a bathrobe, she stepped out of the bathroom and called Sherry. "Sherry, come to my room for a bit." Sherry replied respectfully, "Please wait for a moment, Young Lady. I'll be there soon."

Moments later, Kathleen heard the sound of the doorbell.

She stood up and opened the room door.

As soon as Sherry came in, she asked respectfully, "Young Lady. Since you asked me to come over, what are your instructions for me?"

Kathleen didn't look nervous or worried anymore. She simply had Sherry sit on the sofa and took her time to ask, "Sherry, how did things go with you and Claire Wilson today?"

Sherry said, "The contract has been signed. Madam Wilson insisted on not charging the design fee. She wanted to transfer the five million dollars for the design fee to the decoration costs. She said that if we refuse, she won't take the order. I agreed to it because I couldn't convince her otherwise.'

Kathleen couldn't help but frown. "Why did she refuse the design fee? Five million dollars is not a small amount. As far as I know, she shouldn't have that much money."

Sherry explained, "According to Madam Wilson's words, she feels that she is still far from the level of a senior designer.

Thus, she is very grateful for the fact that you've chosen her for this project. At the same time, she also hopes that she can participate in the domestic interior design competition through this project."

After pausing for a moment, Sherry added," To put it bluntly, Madam Wilson wants to make this villa of yours a classic example of her personal interior design. This is why she refused the five million dollars design fee."

Kathleen nodded and smiled. "It seems Claire Wilson is very professional. She definitely wants to make a name for herself and gain recognition in interior design."

"Yes," Sherry agreed. "When I interacted with Madam Wilson, I felt that this woman is very simple-minded. She's not very good at hiding things and she really wants to run her business well."

Kathleen nodded again and said,

"Why don't we do this? Go to her company the next morning and tell her that want to see her, and that I hope could talk to her face-to-face about my design needs for the villa."

Sherry said, "Young Lady, wouldn't it be faster for me to make an appointment with her if you want to see her tomorrow? I'll ask her to come here first thing morning tomorrow."

"No, you can't do that." Kathleen

refused decisively. "If you tell her now, Charlie Wade will know about it. I don't want him to know about this matter for the time being. At the very least, I don't want him to know before Claire Wilson comes.

should go to Claire Wilson's P. 14

company tomorrow and talk to her about the construction cycle first. After that, I'll call you and you can ask her to meet me at that time. That way, she probably won't tell her husband about it. You'll also be by her side at all times, so you can see if she contacts him.

It was only then that Sherry came to a sudden realization. "I understand, Young Lady. I'll go to her company tomorrow."

"Good." Kathleen nodded again, satisfied." Sherry, I have one more thing I must trouble you with. You need to work overtime tonight."

Sherry said, "Young Lady, just give me your instructions."

Kathleen said, "After you return to your room, gather everyone in the United States to look up the best interior designers in this world who are still alive. I want a list of the top twenty designers in the world. Make sure to focus on female designers!"

Sherry was slightly stunned. She soon understood Kathleen's motives and asked," Young Lady, are you trying to prepare some common topics with Madam Wilson in advance for the meeting tomorrow?"

"It's more than that," Kathleen said

seriously, "After you pull up the list of the top twenty designers, ask the public relations team in the United States to confirm the appearance fees for these twenty people. When the time comes, if Claire Wilson admires and worships any one of them, you have to make sure you can invite this person to Aurous Hill. You must also make sure that this person will cooperate with me and do whatever I say.'

Sherry replied without hesitation, "Don't worry. Young Lady. I'll definitely work my best to get this done tonight!"

Kathleen nodded again and instructed, " Prepare the list and information first, and then send it to me. I want to familiarize myself with it in advance."
