Enchanted By His Charm



The translator looked at Jordan and did not dare to say anything more. Jordan actually sneered, simply translated and repeated his own words in English. Although he was not very fluent, he changed the shareholders' faces.

The meeting was like a war.

Finally, under Joseph's cold yelling, everything became calm.

Moreover, the meeting ended flatly, and opponents were defeated as three shareholders abstained.

This matter temporarily ran aground.

After the meeting ended, Joseph called Jordan into his office.

"They're shareholders; you must respect them even if their words are unpleasant." These were Joseph's first words after shutting the door.

Jordan pouted his lips, shrugged his shoulders, sat down on his desk, and spread his hands. "I can't imagine you're facing these people's faces daily."

Joseph frowned, knocking on the table. 

Jordan quickly sat in his chair across his desk and asked, "Can I sit on the sofa? This will give me the false impression of the director."

Joseph sighed and agreed.

Jordan just sat down, and Joseph came with a document. He sat opposite him and handed the documents to Jordan. Jordan was curious and glanced at it. It was an equity transfer contract.

Whose stake was to be transferred? Jordan was surprised.

Joseph had guessed his thoughts and quickly explained.

"Your stake should be transferred." Joseph said, "You see the contract as a whole, and if it's okay, I'll have the legal adviser in the office to finalize the process," He said.

It was a sudden event and impulsive behavior.

Jordan was first stupefied and quickly asked, "Transferred to whom?"

"Me," Joseph said briefly.

He pushed the contract close.

But Jordan did not look at it, sitting lazily back on the sofa, thinking.

"I want to know why." He looked at Joseph for a few seconds before opening his mouth.

"You don't need to know why." Joseph looked cold.

"What if I don't sign it?" Jordan responded briefly. 

Joseph's tone was always calm, "You have to sign it."

"That means you want to sweep me out of the company?" Jordan smiled. 

Joseph was silent, touched the cigarette box, pulled out a cigarette, put it into his mouth, and ignited it. He stood at the back of the sofa, made a few sucks, and gently spit out the smoke. He is silent for a few minutes showing his introverted nature.

It was long before he spoke, and his voice was low. "Now that you can protect your future, I don't need to worry about you."

Jordan stared at him, his lips slightly curved.

Joseph gradually uttered, "All the time, you want to be free, so now I give you your freedom. However, since the encounter of the annual shareholder meeting makes you feel shackled, then leave it to me to handle it for you."

"I want to know what you're thinking and what you're going to do." 

Joseph ignored his words.

"You don't need to know," Joseph stressed faintly.

"Why? Isn't it necessary, knowing that I am your own brother?" Jordan was suddenly angry and stood up, roaring at Joseph, "You used to be like that, and even now, you still act the same! Do I have to follow any decisions you make? Do you still think of me as your brother? I don't know what's the most important thing in the world to you. Leo is your best friend, he misunderstood you, and you don't even bother to explain. I am your brother. I misunderstood you, and you still don't explain anything to me. Do you know your character is really very annoying?"

Jordan recalled the time he moved to Midtown Manhattan, and he was cleaning his room when he saw a letter left by Irish for him. The content was not long but enough for him to meditate.

In the letter, Irish's tone wasn't that of discipline and reprimand, but lightly explaining why he was kidnapped during childhood. She told him that his brother actually cared about him. What he had done actually only delayed the time. He could clearly remember Irish saying, "Your big brother's status gives him the right to do many things, but he also cannot do many things. He has his decision and his dilemma. He was not a high-ranking person at that time. On the contrary, his status determines his helplessness, a lot of suffering, and a lot of pressure. He had to resist it by himself."

She also said to him, "Jordan, your brother loves you. He is not a man who is good at expressing feelings, but he gives you a mountain-like heavy fatherly love and brotherly feelings, and don't blame him for deciding for you. It is just because he wants to protect you as if to protect his own child. There are a lot of things we may not understand, but one thing you have to believe is that you are the most important family for him. You'll never know the tough choices he made for you to compromise and allow you to go racing. You have to know that the people who care about you will become hesitant."

"You may feel that you or Leo have suffered too much. Of course, you would also be furious because of your big brother's behavior. Still, Jordan, if you have the opportunity to go to South Africa, to see with your own eyes how your big brother is in the mining site if you were in his shoes which bore such responsibility to provide huge profits for the entire company, you will understand that the man who has experienced life and death, hatred is nothing to him, and affection will go. Your big brother, perhaps, considers this a huge burden."

Irish's words, 'The man who experienced life and death,' deeply shocked Jordan.

Irish was right. He resented his brother because he didn't understand why he worked for Henry, even if Henry had favored them. First, that was what Henry owed them; second, he didn't understand why his brother could despise friendship for his benefit. And the last reason was that when he was kidnapped, his brother did not save him.

But then he finally knew why the thugs were killed. Analyzing the situation, since the thugs captured him, how did he manage to survive? He realized everything after that but was just mad at his brother.

Moreover, he felt that his eldest brother did not care about him, so he always had some rebellious behavior or said disobedient words to stimulate his eldest brother's anger. On the other hand, when his eldest brother was angry with him, he would deeply blame himself because his eldest brother was famously calm. If he was angry, it proved that he cared about him.

So all along, he felt that he was very tangled, and this caused care and resentment in his big brother's psychology.
