Jordan always gave others the impression that he usually took things easy. People always said that men shouldn't do something they were interested in but do something they should do.
Irish believed that Joseph was doing something he should do, but Jordan still acted like a child who only focused on what he liked.
But now Jordan could not do whatever he wanted because he had to take responsibility for his brother, and he needed to grow up. Irish thought it tempered Jordan to become mature. However, to her surprise, Jordan was conscientious and did his best which was beyond her expectation.
The shareholders didn't adopt a resistant attitude about Jordan's joining because they were all afraid of profit loss. It created a chance for Jordan to play his constructive role. Irish heard from Roy that the procedure of the new product launch had been revised several times, and he focused on every detail of the launch, including the position of the exhibit on the model.
Roy didn't understand why he focused on these details at the very beginning, but Roy told him that Joseph once told him that the visual effects of diamonds varied according to the location of the furnishings. Therefore, Roy managed to display the most beautiful state of the diamond.
It was not until then Irish learned that Roy had taken Joseph's words into his heart, although he always looked indifferent to everything.
The stock price of the Runestone Group stabilized after the launch and even increased gradually. The spokesman of Runestone Group was a popular international male star and changed the traditional concept of selecting women as mouthpieces.
Joseph made this decision at the beginning since he thought men usually preferred to spend money on jewelry and present beautiful jewelry to their beloved women. What's more, selecting a man as a spokesman would be more influential because it is contrary to traditional ideas.
But the new product launch was delayed since the design concept was stolen.
After discussion, Roy and Jordan were determined to adopt Joseph's idea and set the theme as the commemoration of classics. In that case, they needed to retake the advertising video.
It was time-consuming since the editing work would also take a lot of effort. Therefore, Jordan worked for several days without much sleep.
Even the editing staff started to complain about overtime work.
But luckily, Runestone Group succeeded in pulling through the crisis.
The shareholders were satisfied with Jordan, while Roy hoped he could work in Runestone Group. Jordan declined his suggestion and told Irish about his decision.
"Why don't you want to work there?" asked Irish.
"They are kicking down the ladder. I am sure they had the same expectation about my brother before."
"Jordan, do you know what you are talking about?" Irish was shocked by what he said.
"Of course, I know. My brother is the ladder. They appreciate me just because I safeguard their profit."
Irish could understand what he was thinking, so she suggested that he do what he was really interested in.
They chatted with each other, and Irish suddenly asked, "Do you know what your brother wants to do most?"
Startled, Jordan was speechless at her question.
"I mean, what was your brother's dream in his childhood? Such as to be a scientist, a teacher, and so on," added Irish. She remembered that she was always asked by the adults what her dream was when she was a little girl.
And other children would reply that they wanted to be a scientist, a pilot, or a painter, while Irish would tell them she wanted to be a doctor.
Generally, the adults would be pleased to hear the answer, but Irish would feel regret because her mother was gone.
The adults would always imbue children with their thoughts. Irish wondered if Joseph also dreamed of being a scientist in his childhood.
She was not clear on what else he wanted to do besides the present job.
However, Jordan heaved a sigh and responded, "When I was sensible, he is already doing this job, so in fact, I am also not clear about what he wants to do."
Irish was enlightened by Jordan's words and reminded of the age gap between them.
Now that the crisis of Runestone Group was solved, the shareholders united together to resist the external enemy.
Their external enemy referred to Joseph.
They managed to unite with Roy to resist Joseph.
The police made some requirements for Joseph and restricted his behavior, and he was not allowed to go abroad until he cleared his suspicion. Taking this chance, the shareholders required Roy to take charge of the company and declared to the outside world that Joseph would take a long vacation.
Roy had no other choice under such circumstances but to require Joseph to ask for a long leave.
Joseph was clever. He just smiled and didn't say anything.
Roy also knew that even an idiot could understand his meaning.
He just poured a cup of coffee for him, frowning, "You know what, I really want to let you be in charge of the Runestone Group. I am not familiar with management and market running."
The temperature was good. The aroma of the coffee went off.
The light coffee aroma and musk breath in the room made the air clean.
Joseph didn't answer his question and just sipped the coffee, asking lightly, "Do you still want to be involved in the trouble?"
Roy was helpless in his eyes, "I have no other choices."
Who said that identity couldn't decide anything? Sometimes, identity was everything. It decided what you could do or not.
Joseph stared at his cup, seeming to think. After a while, he nodded, "I will not take a long holiday but resign directly."
Roy looked at him, surprised.
And then his voice seemed to be anxious, "Why just give up your career? You know what, those shareholders are just afraid that you may change them.
You can just have a good rest. After the crisis is over, you can then…"
Joseph interrupted him and said lightly, "It doesn't matter whether I am in the Runestone Group or not. Now it is indeed unsuitable to put the company in charge of a person who is even monitored by the police. Roy, I just hope that you can promise one thing."
Roy frowned tightly. Seeing him resolute, he had to sigh, "Okay, go ahead."
"The directors of the Marketing Department, Sales Department, Public Relations Department, and Design Department are all promoted by me. They all have strong capabilities and can help you a lot. Please take care of them."
Roy nodded, "Sure, I promise."
Joseph got assured. In the end, he said, "Moreover, please be careful. When you are in this position, do not trust someone easily. Do not completely believe in someone, including the Lakes."
