The Rise of Dragon Temple By Wu Xia

Chapter 47 Joseph and Paige went hto rest. When Paige was driving, Joseph was sitting next to her, causing her heart to race. Especially without the presence of Chloe, her heartbeat was even faster, as if she had just fallen in love.

Sure enough, everything that Joseph had done for her today deeply moved her. At this moment, even though she was driving, she would occasionally glance at him from the corner of her eye. When she saw his sharp side profile, her face becredder. After they got home, Paige coaxed Chloe to sleep and avoided having too much interaction with Joseph. During bedtime, Chloe slept happily in between Paige and Joseph while Paige couldn't sleep. From tto time, she would secretly catch a glimpse of Joseph. The more she looked at him, the more she felt that he was charming... For a night, the two of them did not speak. However, in the meantime, Joseph's decision had once again caused a stir in Olpen. A huge one. Joseph had decided to bring forward the wedding date to three days later. In fact, that wedding involved more than a hundred cities and more than a thousand couples. Moreover, the couples and service personnel alone would amount to a few thousand people, not to include the couples’ friends and relatives. When the tcame, there would be more than ten thousand people, or maybe a hundred thousand,(This will be daily updtaed at www.jar.com) or even more. As it was such a grand occasion, citizens—who had tin their hands on that day-would probably cand spectate the event too... Therefore, after Joseph gave the order, Dennis and Ernie immediately rushed to the headquarters from home. The swent to hundreds of executives from Gempoint Group and Mysticorps Group-who just got off work and hadn't even arrived home. As Joseph issued a death order to Alpha 1, Alpha 1 gave even more strict orders to Dennis and Ernie. With that, Dennis and Ernie—the top leaders in Oplen-ended up giving the most demanding commands to their executives. They not only ordered the executives to cback for an emergency meeting on that very night, but all hundreds of executives and ten thousand over employees also had to work overtto prepare for the upcoming wedding. Even so, everyone would have ten times the bonuses.” And this night, both Dennis and Ernie—who rushed back to the conference room -were about to go nuts. Three days! There were only three days left! “I don’t care what ways you use! | want all of you to stay up all night and speed up the preparations! Also, we will double the budget! So no matter what, do your best to complete everything in three days. From now on, every department will report one progress in every hour. | will be staying here for the next three days! Hurry up! Hurry up! Get the ball rolling!” Dennis instructed his executives as soon as he arrived at the conference room.

Half an hour later, Ernie—who looked ferocious and anxious-rushed into Gempoint Group with a bright machete, followed by hundreds of his executives. Of course, he did not cto fight but to discuss the wedding. From tto time, employees from both companies would have to discuss important details, and face to-face communication was always the fastest. After greeting Dennis breathlessly, Ernie jumped on the meeting table and chopped off a large piece of it. With murderous intent, he roared to the executives, “If Mr. Drake gives you ten times the bonus as an encouragement, then I'll give you ten machetes instead! I'll put them here tonight. | don’t care who you are and what background you have, but from now on, if anyone of you loses your momentum, I'll chop you up! Don’t forget what madewho | am today!!!” Boom! With Ernie’s words and his murderous look, all executives were scared. Sure enough, everyone knew what was behind Ernie’s achievement.

Although Dennis had sdirty means too, he was nothing compared with Ernie. At this moment, under the combination of interests and fear, employees of both companies began to work frantically. In three days, the grand wedding that involved one thousand over couples —which had never happened since Frogua was founded—would take place in Oplen. However, because it was the largest event in the history of Oplen, there were too many works and sub-sect projects-tens of thousands of participants, the decorations of the venue, lights, color theme, carpet, flowers, media, food, accommodation, etc.

It was countless. Besides, the total expenditure for hundreds of thousands of people on that day would be huge beyond imagination. After all, it would require a generous number of suppliers and materials. After Ernie finished his words breathlessly, (This will be daily updtaed at www.jar.com)Dennis also jumped on the table and began to work with Ernie to coordinate their executives. Once they exchanged glances, Dennis uttered seriously, “Mr. Green, since the wedding is brought forward, we must do it well for Mr. Dawson, or else it will be hard for us to face him in the future... As for our past conflicts, | shall apologize to you. Hopefully, we can go through this together! We can’t let Mr. Dawson down!” Solemnly, Ernie nodded and replied, “Don’t be, Mr. Drake.

| am the one who kept finding your fault in the past. So, | should apologize too. From now on, you will be fully in charge, and | will give you my full cooperation. Feel free to dispatch thousands of my men at any time!” When Dennis heard this, he was greatly relieved. “Cool, | am glad to hear that...” At midnight, after hundreds of executives planned for three hours, they went out. With that, the entire Oplen was bustling with people. The executives of both companies barged into every suppliers’ house and threw them a briefcase of money. “Call your workers now and proceed with the production. Quick!” Meanwhile, at Olpen’s church-which was already under construction-people from different areas delivered countless headlights here and fixed all of them within minutes. Instantly, the area near the church was as bright as day.

Then, a famous interior designer in Oplen rushed to the church overnight and began decorating At the stime, groups of wedding crews, musicians, dancers, and so on also hurried here. Having not much tto rehearse, they sped up their preparation. In addition, the screening process for 1314 couples also began. From Oplen to other hundred cities of the central region, all the news media were also reporting about the grand wedding being held in advance... At that moment, countless people throughout Oplen were called out from their sleep and returned to their positions. The Police Department also mobilized all the police to ensure the safety of the venue. Following that, all kinds of construction machinery hurried to the wedding site. Various designers and their assistants also started to adorn the wedding site and the whole city. While everyone was busy, Serena was lying on her bed, watching soap s. Just as she was preparing to sleep, hundreds of news popped up on her phone screen. “Oh my God!” She jumped up from the bed. Reading the news articles, she ran to the window and opened the curtains. With that, she noticed that lights had filled the quiet city. “Oh my, what is Joseph planning to do?” She swallowed her saliva in shock and subconsciously looked toward the direction of Joseph’s room. On the other side, a smile appeared on Joseph's face as he kept his eyes shut. Listening to those noises outside, he naturally knew that most of the people in Oplen wouldn't be able to sleep tonight. Well, this was the speed he wanted. He didn’t want to fight with those snobbish people from the Mooney family any longer. Besides, Oplen was too small. How could he let his wife and daughter stay here for long? Hence, he had made up his mind. A few days after the wedding, he would take Paige and Chloe to a broader place-Usmait. In the morning, Joseph sent Paige downstairs as usual. As Paige didn’t sleep well last night, she yawned a few times. Seeing that, Joseph said with spity, “If you are too tired, you should take a day off. You didn’t rest for the past few days.” Paige smiled at Joseph and responded, “It’s okay. | haven't been working for a long time. So, | have a lot to catch up on. Also, | still haven’t completed one of the three conditions Grandpa set for me...” With a frown, Joseph asked, “Didn’t your grandfather appoint you as the channel director? It's an official one at that.” Smilingly, Paige nodded, “Well, indeed, but | want to give Grandpa's conditions a shot. Don’t worry, | will try my best...” After a moment of silence, Joseph asked, “What is the third condition then?” company has failed to negotiate for years...” Upon hearing that, Joseph nodded and continued to ask, “Alright, which one do you want to complete then?” For a while, Paige pondered before she muttered casually, “Aceshine Group has rapidly developed these years, but in the end, it still has too little foundation as we could only cooperate with ssmall enterprises. Grandpa has always wanted to cooperate with Gempoint Group and Mysticorps Group. Lily also keeps visiting Gempoint Group for the last few days. Since Rory’s father has a good relationship with Tobias Drake-Gempoint Group's vice president and also Dennis Drake's younger brother-it seems that Lily is bound to win this time. She is upset that | won over her these days.(This will be daily updtaed at www.jar.com)” After saying that, she paused before she smiled at Joseph, “Don’t worry. I'll go to Gempoint Group and see if | can secure this collaboration. | studied their information yesterday, and | want to have a try. During yesterday's meeting, Grandpa also mentioned that whoever secures the partnership with Gempoint Group or Mysticorps Group, that person will becthe Vice President. Even if Lily has connections, she might fail. But if | fail this time, I'll have another try in Mysticorps Group.” “Okay, do your best. | believe you can do it. Chloe and | will also be counting on you to feed us in the future, hehe...” Joseph slightly narrowed his eyes and jested. “Alright, | shall head to work then. You... Take care...” Paige blushed and murmured bashfully.

After Paige left, Joseph laughed meaningfully, “Hehe, Gempoint Group and Mysticorps Group? She just took up the job yesterday, and yet Leonard asks her to discuss the collaboration. What's more, he even lured her with the vice president's position and let Lily compete with her. Is he suspecting something?” Joseph uttered to himself. At this time, Serena cover from behind with Chloe in her arms and asked, “Joseph, do you mean Grandpa suspects it was you who secretly helped Paige?” Joseph nodded and then shook his head. “I'm not sure, but he has been in charge of the company for so many years, and he is astute. So, it wouldn't be weird if he has sdoubts...” Furrowing her brows, Serena concerned, “Are you going to help Paige again this time? If you are, won't Grandpa be more suspicious of you?” Hearing this, Joseph chuckled gleefully, “Well, it doesn’t matter. The wedding will be held in three days anyway.

Haha..” “Helplook after Chloe. I'll personally meet Dennis and Ernie. | have sother matters to discuss with them too...” Then, Joseph left after saying goodbye to Chloe.

Even if Leonard doubted Joseph, so what? Joseph did not intend to hide his identity for long. Before that, he only did it to ease Paige's sorrow and change Estella and Yahir's impression of him. Nevertheless, after he bought a house for Estella, she and Yahir no longer held any grudges against him. (This will be daily updtaed at www.jar.com)In this case, why should he continue to conceal himself? To let that group of contemptible fools run amok in front of him? What a joke.
