Chapter 80 Trailing
When Jane asked Jessica to discuss the design, Jessica had mentioned this before.
With the support of the Duncan Group, the employees in the jewelry companies were very confident, but they were also worried that one day they would be dismissed.
In the current market, luxury goods were not hard to sell. No matter how ugly the designs were, countless people would still chase after them.
People who bought the luxury goods were to buy their brands, after-sales, attitudes, and brand effects.
The rich bought luxury goods, while the poor, bought goods without an exquisite appearance in the flea market. Therefore, there was a fault in the jewelry market. In the long run, entry lux should have a bright future. "You're right, but the two jewelry companies of the Duncan Group are not for profit, but for convenience."
Jane's market analysis was very reasonable. William tacitly acknowledged and he didn't mind talking more.
The Duncan Group had owned two film companies. Both of them had invested in plenty of big-budget movies, and most of the jewelry the actors wore came from these two jewelry companies. Their designs served more for the Duncan Group than for the customers outside.
"One of the jewelry companies suffers a slight loss. To reduce the loss..."
William made a beautiful sharp turn, shaking off the business car that had been following behind.
He wondered if he was oversensitive, but the dark blue business car had been following them along the way from the amusement park.
The Duncan's was far from the downtown area. It was almost impossible for the two cars to keep going in the same way.
"To reduce the losses, the Duncan Group has sent the jewelry made by the loss-making company to the female employees as a New Year gift."
Jane didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Just now, Jessica sent her a WeChat message with a photo of the New Year gift, and three sobbing emoji. "Is it Frederic's idea?"
Frederic was single and didn't have time to date with others. However, he didn't seem to be very friendly to women. Perhaps there was something wrong with his heart.
"It's mine."
William looked at the rearview mirror. The blue car behind did not follow them, so he changed the route.
The jewelry couldn't be sold, so it was better to give it to female employees as a gift than to just leave it there. Besides, in this way, the welfare expense could be saved. Jane didn't know what to say but just kept silent.
She had always felt that William was a righteous person, but now she realized she didn't know him well.
William betrayed his brothers before, and now he tried all means to reduce expenditure. He was indeed a black-hearted boss!
Jane rubbed her chin. This was indeed a good choice after all.
"However, the loss-making one can't keep dragging the feet of the other."
Jane put forward her own opinions. Running two companies wasted a lot of resources. If the two companies could be merged into one, then they could be more professional and focused. The "only one" brand in the Duncan Group was profitable and slightly famous. If they focused more on its brand building, it could gain more market share.
"This is my one-sided opinion."
Just as Jane finished her words, she saw William pull over and turn back, staring at her.
His gaze was too sharp. Jane blinked and innocently said, "It's really my own opinion."
The Duncan Group was William's and she was just a freeloader. She couldn't make any decision.
"Wait a moment."
William signaled Jane to turn back. In about a minute, another blue commercial vehicle appeared in their eyes.
The commercial vehicle was left at a very low speed.
"Is this person a newbie? Why is this person driving so slowly?"
When the conversation was interrupted, Jane frowned and suddenly noticed that something was wrong.
"Don't worry. It might be a novice female driver."
After the business car left, William took out his phone and added Jane's WeChat.
They had been married for six years but they were strange to each other. They did not talk on the phone, nor did they have any other contact information. William took the initiative to add her WeChat. Jane thought for a moment and immediately understood that there was something that Dayton should not know. In a minute, they were in each other's WeChat group.
Soon, Jane received William's message.
Jane raised her phone in order not to let her son, who was stacking his blocks, see it. She clicked on the message.
"The blue commercial car has been following us."
Just one sentence, simple and straightforward.
Jane was depressed. The person who attacked William at the charity dinner last time was caught by the police. One of the waiters pleaded guilty.
But at that time, the waiter was not around the guests.
It was pitch-black in the room. How did the waiter find William's location?
After several interrogations by the police, the waiter insisted that he was the only criminal. He would at most be convicted of intentional injury and attempted murder. He would be released from prison in less than ten years.
There were many doubts, but there were no other clues.
Now, a car was following them. They really had to be careful when they went out in the future.
The person in the blue car feared that he would be exposed, so he had no choice but to leave.
Unfortunately, they had no evidence of his trailing. Otherwise, Jane would have dragged that person down and beaten him hard. How dare he offend her!
They were not celebrities, and they didn't need a paparazzi or a fanatic. Why should they be stared at like the stars?
"If there is no suitable person to manage the companies, it will be even more chaotic after the merger."
The two companies had their own creative teams. With different concepts, they could not work well together. William wasn't interested in the jewelry company, but he wondered what Jane thought.
"Can I manage them? I like the design a lot."
Jane asked straightforwardly. She was too bored at home and could not realize the value of her life.
"Is that all you need?"
The market value of the jewelry company was only tens of millions, not even hundreds of millions. What Jane wanted was quite a little.
They finally got home. After Dayton got off the car, William said coldly, "Please think it over. If we get divorced, you will get more than that."
Companies, stocks, real estate, jewelry, all of these valued at least tens of billions.
William was willing to pay these as the cost of divorce.
Jane kept silent.
Were those in high positions all a little suspicious? Jane was very helpless. She didn't want a divorce!
She had felt weird after getting here. She felt weird about everything that had happened earlier and the vehicles that had just been following them on the road. She didn't dare to get divorced for the sake of her own life.
"I will give the company to you and will make changes on the legal person, just for you to kill the time."
When he talked about divorce, Jane's face instantly turned pale. She did not look like she was faking it.
The silhouette on William's face softened. Judging from Jane's expressions, it meant that he was more important than tens of billions.
"Frederic, did you find the license plate number?"
William lit a cigarette. In the smoke, his expression became unclear.
"Boss, that plate number is fake."
Frederic replied. He really hoped that William was oversensitive, but the plate number was fake.
"OK, I know."
After William hung up the phone, his expression did not change at all, and he did not panic at all.
No wonder William could be the boss. Jane felt relieved. Standing beside him, she felt inexplicably safe, as if no matter how big a matter was, this man could handle it. "There's no big deal except death."
William threw away the cigarette in his hand and said indifferently, "Let's go and spend the New Year with Master Duncan."[
