Chapter 217
Hearing this, Jimmy breathed a sigh of relief. Knowing that Charlie didn’t like him, he was afraid Charlie would
find fault with him, so he had delivered his report very carefully today.
Then, he politely said, “It is my honor to work hard for the company.”
Hearing his words, Charlie smiled, “Let Roger do the rest.”
Roger was another manager who was present today. And he had always been Jimmy’s competitor. He was Pat’s
nephew, so he was also working in the company.
Hearing Charlie’s arrangement, Roger was startled and said, “Me? But Jimmy has always been in charge of this

Charlie asked, “Why? Are you unwilling to take it over?”
Roger was of course willing to take it over. He used to be valued in the company, and Jimmy used to be nobody
in his eyes. But since Jimmy had begun to date Rose, things had become increasingly difficult for him.
Therefore, he had never expected such a good thing to suddenly happen to him.
Everyone present was surprised to hear this and looked at Jimmy, wondering what was wrong. Why had Mr. Calsis
made such a decision? Had Jimmy done anything wrong or offended him?
They all knew Mr. Calsis’s temper and that it was hard to change his mind after he made the decision. Now, Jimmy’s
face looked gloomy.
He stared at Charlie in disbelief, held back his anger, and said, “Mr. Calsis, I have always been in charge of this
project.”
It was unfair! Charlie was going too far! He used to make things difficult for him at home, but now, he had even
made trouble for him in the company! Jimmy was so angry that his voice was trembling, but he had to restrain
his emotions because of Charlie’s identity.
Charlie said calmly, “I know. But Rose is pregnant, so you should spend more time with her at home.”
His tone was full of care, but he had kicked Jimmy out of the project decisively! Moreover, this reason was
irrefutable.
Hearing Charlie’s words, everyone looked at Jimmy and thought this reason was understandable. One manager
even said, “Mr. Watson, congratulations!”

Hearing this, Jimmy showed a sullen face. The whole company knew he and Rose were an affectionate couple,
so everyone showed respect to him. After all, he was likely to inherit Pat’s properties in the future.
Unexpectedly, Charlie had taken advantage of this to push him out of the project.
He took a deep breath and tightly clasped his hands together.
Charlie looked at him and said, “Do the handover with Roger after the meeting!”
Roger said, “Okay, Mr. Calsis. I’ll not let you down.”
Hearing this, Jimmy banged the documents on the table and left the conference room without saying a word.
Charlie cast a glance at him, put his hands on the table, and remained silent.
After Jimmy left, the unfinished meeting continued.
