Chapter 1176 - So Handsome You Can't Take Your Eyes Off It

The information in Gavin's hands can no longer be said to be just investigating Dolly.

Joanne used to be a forensic doctor, very sensitive to some details of the clues, professional sense of smell told her - Gavin's investigation is too detailed.

As far as detail goes-

Starting with Dolly's first project in the workplace, the report records in detail what kind of setbacks Dolly has encountered and what methods she has used to solve them. In the end, Lu's financial staff analyzed whether there was a better solution than Dolly's method under the circumstances.

Gavin used a thick stack of investigation reports to prove that Dolly had never made any mistakes in her financial work.

No matter how bad a situation she encountered, Dolly was able to maintain maximum calmness and take the most appropriate approach to solving the problem.

After Joanne finished reading the investigation report, she could almost already see that Dolly sitting in her office-

Dolly is confident and capable, very self-disciplined and has a strong executive power, with strong professional ability and their own talent to convince the board of directors and subordinate staff.

It's no wonder that the very valuable Conor was willing to work with Dolly.

What Joanne was puzzled about was - why did Brian and Gavin investigate Dolly in such detail?

She was suspicious of their purpose.

Wendy was always slow to respond to these questions, but at this time, she also reacted and looked at Gavin in disbelief, "Shouldn't you explain this to us?"

Gavin didn't hide it and nodded his head generously, "Of course."

"Uh-huh--" Joanne made a show of washing her ears and signaling Gavin to speak on.

Gavin paused for two seconds before slowly saying, "Joanne, long before you, Brian wanted my mom to join Lu's. Currently, Lambert Group needs a top-level management in finance, and she is very suitable, both in terms of professional ability and seniority."

"... "Joanne realized, returned the ipad to Gavin and pointed to the information displayed on it, "You and Brian both know that Auntie's expertise is the right thing to do, so why do you still need to investigate so carefully? "

"The financial executives are different from the general management." Gavin tried to downplay it as much as possible, "With this information, that group of people on the board of directors will have nothing to say."

Joanne nodded, "I understand ..."

Wendy finally reacted in a confused manner, "So, after mom comes back from Australia, she will go to Lu's to work?"

Gavin said, "With Lu's current situation, we need her. As long as she is willing, she can become Lu's top financial officer."

Wendy looked thoughtful, pondered for a moment, and finally said, "I think ... mom will agree."

Gavin's gaze swept over a touch of surprise, and Joanne also felt curious and asked directly, "Wendy, why are you so sure?"

"Hey, the reason is actually very simple." Wendy poked Gavin and said with a smile, "Because Gavin works at Lu's ah! Mom missed out on Gavin's childhood, and now working with Gavin is a good choice!"

"..."

Although this guess of Wendy did not have much actual basis, it was not impossible.

Joanne smiles, stands up and says, "I'm going back. Aiden and Romy are still at home, and Brian is almost off work."

"Uh-huh!" Wendy smiled and waved her hand at Joanne, "See you later cousin."

"Bye."

Joanne walked out of the hospital room, the bodyguards immediately followed her footsteps, all four of them were less than a meter away from her.

Joanne also forgot exactly from when Brian arranged for someone to protect her closely.

She had also gone from being uncomfortable at first to getting used to the presence of her bodyguards.

Several bodyguards followed Joanne into the elevator, and one of them reminded, "Ma'am, Mr. Lambert is off duty."

Joanne looked at the time, it was exactly five thirty.

Although it was already past the normal closing time, however, Brian was able to leave the company at this time instead of arriving home at eight or nine o'clock, Joanne was already satisfied.

When Joanne came, Winston parked his car in front of the hospital.

As soon as she walked out of the hospital, Winston immediately got out of the car and opened the door to wait for her.

"Thanks!"

Joanne smiled at Winston and was about to get into the car when the corner of her eye suddenly glimpsed a black Land Rover-

The black Land Rover was parked just across the road at a street corner, motionless, like a tiger eyeing something.

Joanne almost reflexively remembered that Rowdy's car was a black Land Rover.

In a short moment, Joanne's pores expanded all over her body, she almost panicked and got into the car, her voice already trembling a bit, "Winston, drive!"

Winston noticed that Joanne's voice wasn't quite normal, and immediately started the car while asking, "Madam, what's wrong? Do you need me to contact Mr. Lambert?"

Joanne didn't say anything, when she passed the opposite street, she glanced at the license plate number of the black Land Rover and let out a long sigh of relief - it wasn't Rowdy's license plate number.

If so, she really didn't know what to do.

Joanne swallowed her throat, trying to get her voice back to normal, and lightly said, "Nothing, I'm in a hurry to go home."

"Mistress, you are worried about Aiden and Romy, right?" Winston smiled and stepped on the gas to accelerate, "Don't worry, I will definitely send you home as fast as I can!"

Winston did what he said he would do, and in less than thirty minutes, he sent Joanne back to Dingya Mountain Villa.

Brian returned home a few minutes earlier than Joanne, and just as he walked through the front door, he heard a burst of brakes behind him.

When he came back from work, his men had told him that Joanne had gone to the hospital to see Gavin and was getting ready to come back.

I think it's Joanne, isn't it?

Brian turned back and saw Joanne getting down from the car.

Dingya Mountain Resort is safe, after watching Joanne get off the bus, a few bodyguards consciously stowed away, and Winston proceeded to send the family's maids to shop for things at the nearby super market.

In the large garden, only Brian and Joanne were left, with only four or five meters between them.

Joanne saw Brian, and the scene when she walked out of the hospital came back to her mind-

If it was Rowdy's car parked at the opposite street corner, she didn't know if she would be able to come back, let alone if she would still be able to see Brian.

That familiar feeling of fear loomed down again, Joanne unconsciously accelerated her steps, and finally turned into a jog all the way, the whole person jumped into Brian's arms.

Brian quickly noticed that something was not normal.

It wasn't their first day together, Joanne wasn't so agitated even if she hadn't seen him all day.

There must be something.

Brian was not in a hurry, hugging Joanne and asking softly, "What's wrong?"

Joanne hated to drill into Brian's arms like, the whole person close to him, there is still fear in his voice,"I just saw a black Land Rover in front of the hospital, thought it was Rowdy's car."

Brian looked at Joanne and softly asked, "Scared?"

Not willing to admit that she was scared so easily, Joanne carried on hard and said, "It's okay!"

Brian let go of Joanne and paused before saying, "Joanne, we might really have to meet Rowdy head on."

"Hmm?" Joanne didn't respond for a moment, "Why?"

"Remember the reception I mentioned to you?" Brian said, "It's being held in three days."

Of course Joanne remembered that reception.

For that reception, Brian and Wesley met frequently to discuss things, and Rolando couldn't avoid being mixed up in it.

Everyone started to speed up their pace and busy themselves just to see Yuna on the day of the reception and find a chance to bring Yuna back.

Joanne and Brian, too, could not avoid attending.

Joanne nodded and looked at Brian with certainty,"Let's go, as long as you're there, I'm not afraid."

Brian smiled and touched Joanne's head, "Someone will send the dress and shoes over early tomorrow morning, try to see if they fit, and if you have any problems, contact the designer."

"Uh-huh!" Joanne suddenly remembers another thing and pulls Brian and says, "I also have something to tell you."

"What is it?"

Brian looked at Joanne rather seriously.

In his impression, Joanne had always actually had nothing important to do.

However, that didn't stop him from enjoying listening to Joanne talk to him.

"In the afternoon, I talked to my aunt on the phone, my aunt said that she will settle in Arlington in the future, I asked her about her work arrangements, and suggested that she put her resume to Lu's, she said that she will consider it." He Joanne looked at Brian with a smile, "How is it, do I count it as a favor to you."

"Of course it counts." Brian kissed Joanne, "I had already intended to let Auntie work at Lu's."

"Well, you're welcome."

Joanne smiled and pulled Brian upstairs to see the two little ones.

Acacia woke up once just now, drank the milk and fell back asleep, Aiden never woke up, only occasionally grunted twice in his sleep, both of them were surprisingly well-behaved.

This look was just what Joanne wanted.

Joanne pulled Brian and said softly, "Let's go out."

They can go about their business while the two little ones sleep.

By the time Aiden and Romy wake up, their time will not be their own.

Brian changed his suit and put on a sportswear to go to the gym, Joanne was not interested in watching him work out and put on an apron to drill into the kitchen.

Of the many sports, Brian seemed to favor running more.

When Joanne cut and washed the vegetables, she could see Brian running around the track in a circle, as if he would never get tired.

She quickly made three simple home-cooked dishes, looked at the soup in the pot again, adjusted the heat, and went out with a bottle of room-temperature mineral water, handing it to Brian.

Brian happened to finish running ten kilometers, took the mineral water and took a sip, there were beads of sweat sliding down his deep contours, his body's hormones instantly bursting, so handsome that people couldn't move their eyes.

Joanne felt that if she continued to look at it, there was a high possibility that she wouldn't be able to control herself, luckily she had brought a towel out with her.

She took the towel hanging on the crook of her arm and naturally wiped the beads of sweat on Brian's forehead-
