Chapter 583
Not long ago, Wendy's father had called to discuss promoting her to become the senior vice president of the group.
This position essentially cemented her status as the company's successor. It was also a recognition of her hard work.
When Wendy asked her father whether her uncles had any objections, pride and confidence shone in his eyes.
After all, her remarkable achievements spoke for themselves. The substantial profits she brought to Pentime Group were undeniable. Those who prioritized profit would have no reason to oppose.
She had earned the right to take over Pentime Group through her abilities, determination, and vision. She felt immense pride.
And all of this was made possible with Jack's support.
Whenever Wendy thought of him, she would reminisce about their moments together—from their first encounter after a drunken night to their second heartfelt embrace.
She wondered if that mischievous young man was also thinking of her. It had been a while since she had last seen him, and she missed him dearly. Perhaps it was time to visit him.
At this thought, a faint blush crept onto her cheeks.
At noon, Jack and Samuel headed to Haven Net for an inspection after lunch.
The company was running smoothly, and the user base continued to grow steadily.
Josiah, the head of the IT department, stepped forward to greet them, accompanied by Ambrose Pembroke, the deputy director.
Ambrose had been introduced to the company by Josiah.
Josiah's exceptional technical skills and straightforward personality had earned Jack's trust.
That afternoon, back at school, Jack saw that Isaac and Joshua had returned.
The two players from Alnewgo University fought fiercely in the CUBA Elite 16 in Northvale Province. After a tough battle, they secured a hard-fought overtime victory. With this win, they advanced to the Final Four, achieving the best result in the university's history.
Their next opponent was formidable, making further progress unlikely. Even so, this achievement was already something to be proud of.
The university leadership also gave high praise to the team's performance.
As evening fell, Jack was about to head to the cafeteria for dinner when Feena unexpectedly showed up.
Since her grandparents had moved away from the suburbs, she and Jack had lost touch for a while. He hadn't expected her to reach out to him again.
That day, Feena had clearly put great effort into her appearance. Her subtle makeup accentuated her delicate features. Her black lace-trimmed dress added a touch of elegance, showcasing her stylish taste.
The air had turned cool, but her thick tights still traced the elegant lines of her long legs. Paired with black heels, she looked absolutely stunning.
Jack couldn't help but gulp as he took in her beauty, then quickly averted his gaze. "Feena, what brings you here?"
She gently bit her red lips and cast Jack a playful glance. She asked softly and flirtatiously, "What's wrong? Aren't you happy to see me?"
He shook his head hurriedly. "Of course not! I just thought..... I might never see you again."
Feena, sharp as ever, understood the meaning behind his words. She smiled sweetly. "So, do you want me to visit? If you'd like, I can come see you often in the future. Though... I'm a little worried your girlfriend might get jealous."
Her words carried a hint of flirtation, leaving Jack momentarily at a loss for a response.
Noticing the guitar on her back, he chuckled. "New song in the works?"
She nodded. "Do you have time? I'd like to treat you to dinner, then find a quiet spot where you can help me refine my new song."
After Jack's modifications last time, her song achieved remarkable success.
Now, she wasn't just making waves in the film industry. She was also gaining significant influence in the music world.
Even her mentor, Donald, had admitted that there was little left he could teach her.
