Chapter 268 Meet Renee James
After sending Cathy Sidney home, it was 4 p.m. already and Martin James drove back to his cousin, Renee James's company.
"Renee!" Martin James rushed to Renee James with a big smile on his face.
"Martin James, it's great to see you! Come on, allow me to take you to dinner." Renee smiled and was too excited to be with Martin.
The two were extraordinarily happy being together.
Renee James brought Martin James to a top French restaurant.
The world's two most famous restaurants, respectively, Chinese and French. French foods were evidently delicious.
Moreover, the French are very good at eating. So some people say that French food was the world's most advanced dish.
Inside the restaurant, everything looked so modern and very well styled. The restaurant looked so classy and elegant.
"Martin, this is JD's top French restaurant. I rarely come to eat here if I'm just alone. But today, just to entertain you, I want you to experience this amazing place." Renee James said with a laugh.
"It's all right, I'll be invited." Martin James said with a laugh.
"How does that work? I am your sister today said what I have to invite guests, you are not allowed to rob me." Renee James slurred.
At that point, the waiter served the menu.
Martin James looked at the menu, which had two copies, one in English and one in French, and Martin James checked on it.
"Sir, do you need me to help you choose on our menu?" The waiter smiled and offered to help.
Apparently, the waiters saw that Martin James might not know the menu, and they would introduce them verbally to such a guest.
"No, Renee, you order for me. Choose whatever and I'll eat the same." Martin James handed the menu to Renee James.
After all, Renee James graduated from the Harvard Business School in M. So she was used to that kind of ambiance.
"Okay then, I'll choose for both of us." Renee James nodded.
After ordering, she uttered, "By the way, Martin, I made an appointment with a friend yesterday. So you won't mind if I let you have dinner with him today?" Renee James asked.
"Renee, it won't be your boyfriend, right?" Martin James grinned.
"Nonsense, this is a girl. A good friend of mine. She is an alumnus of my Harvard Business School." Renee James explained.
"Alright then." Martin James nodded.
"It's still a big beauty, do you want me to make it up for you?" Renee James said with a laugh.
"Renee, don't make me laugh." Martin James smiled awkwardly.
Then he said, "By the way Renee, how's the project?"
"Speaking of which, thanks to the last time you gave that billion at Grandpa's birthday party. When that money arrived, it helped me solve the funding chain problem, and now that the project is complete, the app is about to start promoting, with an estimated investment of 30 million dollars to promote it." Renee James said.
"30 million dollars' promotional funds? That's still not enough." Martin James said.
Martin James knew that to do promotion was to burn money. Tens of millions were simply not enough to burn. He was expecting it to be at least a week then it'll be gone.
"I contacted an investor who, after the first round of the 30 million dollars' promotion, was willing to invest in two or three investments. It is expected to be about 500 million, enough for a major roll-out. Renee James said.
Martin James nodded.
"By the way Martin, how did you suddenly run JD? Were you ready to come to JD development?" Renee James wondered.
"Morgan asked me to go to Gold's Head Office." Martin James explained.
"I see. Now it makes a lot of sense." Renee James said.
"Yes, Morgan's attempt to appoint me as Gold's Deputy General Manager was thwarted by him and some of the Gracie family people." Martin James laughed bitterly.
Martin James continued, "Morgan gave me and Colby Gracie a task to get a businesswoman to Gold, who could dig up and who would be promoted to be Deputy General Manager."
"Oh?" Who's this businesswoman? I can make Mr. Gracie pay so much attention." Renee James wondered.
As soon as Renee James's voice dropped, her cell phone rang.
"Martin, the friend that I mentioned earlier just called. She'll arrive anytime soon." Renee James all smiled.
After that, Renee James immediately got up. As she picked up the phone, she walked out.
Martin James thought to himself that when Renee James and her friend comes in, be sure to ask them if they knew Cathy Sidney.
A few minutes later, the door of the restaurant was pushed open and Renee James walked into the restaurant with a shadow. Then stood beside her was a woman.
Martin James looked up when he saw the woman walking alongside Renee James.
"Martin, this is my good friend that I was telling you about." Renee told Martin.
Martin James stared at her and his eyes were full of surprise.
Because the woman who walked in with Renee James wasn't someone else. It was none other than Cathy Sidney.
Renee James walked in with Cathy Sidney and they were laughing at each other. That's why she didn't notice him right away.
The two of them soon came to the table.
"Cathy, let me introduce you to this gentleman over here. This is my cousin Martin James." Renee James said.
"Oh my god! Martin!" Cathy exclaimed.
Cathy Sidney covered her mouth and looked at Martin James in amazement.
"Cathy, I didn't expect you to be a good friend of my cousin." Martin James laughed.
"Martin, I never thought you'd be Renee's cousin!" Cathy Sidney covered her mouth and laughed.
"You...you two know each other? "Renee James was even more surprised and didn't know what was going on.
"Yes, we know each other!" They responded in unison. Their voices were too cheerful.
"Well, who can tell me what's going on? Why do I feel like I'm the only one in the drum?" Renee James wondered.
"Renee, just sit down first and I'll tell you everything." Martin James said with a laugh.
Three people sat down and started catching up.
"Renee, didn't you just ask me who's the talented girl that Mr. Gracie asked me to dig with Colby Gracie? It's her, Cathy Sidney." Martin James revealed.
"Is it Cathy?" Renee James looked at Cathy Sidney differently.
Martin James also looked at Cathy Sidney and couldn't help but ask, "Cathy, you said before that you promised to go to a friend's company, and you didn't agree with me. Are you going to Renee's company?"
"Yes!" Cathy Sidney nodded.
"It's...it's really a drama, it's all like that." Martin James couldn't help laughing and shaking his head.
Everything was too dramatic yet wonderful. Because Martin James didn't think so much about it, the day was full of surprises.
In fact, Martin James should have thought that the Harvard Business School alumnus in Cathy Sidney's mouth might have been a hint with Renee James's statement.
"I seem to understand. Martin, you want to dig Cathy to Gold, yet Cathy said yes to me. So she turned you down, am I right?" Renee James asked.
"That's right." Martin James nodded bitterly with a smile.
"So, it was a real drama." Renee James covered her mouth and smiled.
Martin James had previously asked Poison Teeth to investigate who Cathy Sidney had promised to, but didn't expect it to be his cousin.
Renee James looked at Cathy Sidney. She smiled and said, "Cathy, Gold is fine. You go to the Gold Group and breakthrough."
Renee James has just listened to Martin James, and she certainly wanted to help Martin James by courting Cathy Sidney about the showdown between Martin James and Colby Gracie.
"But I'm on your side of the company." Cathy Sidney looked at Renee James.
"It's all right, I'll be okay. You'll have free time to guide one or two." Renee James said with a laugh.
Martin James also looked forward to Cathy Sidney, the moment Martin James suddenly felt that hope was ahead.
Cathy Sidney uttered while looking at Martin James, "Martin, now that your cousin Renee has said it, I promise you that I'll move to the Gold Group."
After two days of contact, especially today's day at the playground between Cathy Sidney and Martin James, Ben gave Kathy Sidney a very good impression of Martin James. Only to turn down Martin James because she had promised to start a business with Renee James.
Now that Renee James's problems have been solved, she naturally has no problem anymore.
When Martin James heard Cathy Sidney said yes, the whole person inside him breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as Cathy Sidney joins Gold, it's time for Martin James to go to this fight with Colby Gracie, and Martin James will surely win.
That victory, for Martin James to take control of Gold later, absolutely means a lot.
Moreover, Gold Group's ability to add a businesswoman like Cathy Sidney was definitely a good thing for Gold Group.
"Cathy, thank you for trusting me!" Martin James had a happy smile on his face.
After everything, Martin still got what he had longed for.
