MIDNIGHT Bride The CEO's TEMPTATION

Chapter 798 - 86: The Best Suggestion



Vanessa was in a difficult mood. Obviously, Joshua meant something by saying that. She came to the office with Professor Watson, and maybe that was the improper thing in his eyes.

"Professor," Vanessa felt aggrieved, "Joshua blames me for that."

"Joshua, I'm the one to blame." Professor Watson explained, "it was me who did not make an appointment in advance."

"Professor, don't get me wrong." Joshua smiled slightly, "I am just boasting, Hazel. No other meanings."

Vanessa was irritated. Did he mean she was wrong?

"Haha, you two have such a good relationship." Professor Watson was relieved and said to Hazel, "have I caused any inconvenience to you?"

"Not at all." Hazel shook her head.

"Now that Professor Watson wants to know, you come over and sit here," Joshua said to Hazel.

"Okay." Hazel nodded her head and sat on the sofa next to him.

Joshua said calmly, "Professor, I heard that you recently won a national award. Congratulations."

"Haha, you also knew that." Professor Watson laughed. "That's why I came today. My wife plans to hold a celebration party. Do you have time to attend?"

"It is my pleasure to attend the celebration party. I will come." Joshua smiled slightly.

"Hazel, I am hoping that you will also attend." Professor invited her.

Hazel was surprised, why would the Professor invite her?

She glanced at Vanessa and seemed to know what she was thinking. Professor Watson's students that would attend the party may also know her if they knew Joshua. After all, Vanessa often went to the professor's classes.

Hazel smiled slightly, "Okay."

"Good." Professor Watson nodded his head pleasingly.

"It's good that Hazel will also be there." Vanessa smiled sincerely. But soon, she said with a scornful voice, "This time, the professor's students who will be attending will become the elites from all walks of life. Hazel will have the opportunity to get to know them. Congratulations in advance."

Hazel furrowed her eyebrows slightly. Of course, she knew Vanessa was mocking her, so she smiled slightly and said, "The same to you."

Vanessa was left speechless, she did not know how to respond.

Should she say that she had nothing to be congratulated for? Then the words she said just now would seem to be mean. Joshua and Professor Watson would think that she was bullying Hazel. Joshua would be angry with her! She had to remain silent.

They kept chatting about things like the weather and sports when Joshua suddenly asked the professor, "Did come to visit with something else in mind?"

Professor Watson was surprised. He smiled bitterly and looked at Joshua, "You are still so good at looking through people, just like you used to be. I really think you know how to read people's minds."

Hazel could not agree more. She really thought that Professor Watson was right. Whenever she was with Joshua, she also felt that he seemed to know everything and could guess every thought.

"Professor, don't flatter me." Joshua smiled, "you should be happy that you have received the award, but I have noticed that you occasionally frown. I am assuming that you have something bothering you."

"Well, there is no reason to hide it from you then." Professor Watson sighed, "It is not a big deal actually. The school magazine I edited this year did not sell very well. To facilitate the students, I also made an electronic version. However, I never expected that most of the students would choose the electronic version, and only a few bought the printed version. Now there are more than 2,000 copies of the printed version left."

"School magazine?" Hazel was puzzled.

Joshua explained to her in a low voice, "The school magazine from our school is actually a book that gathers frontline news regarding science, technology, economy, excreta, which is practical and professional. It is issued once a year within the school and always has been a good seller."

Hazel nodded her head.

Vanessa was irritated when she saw Joshua and Hazel were whispering. She smiled and asked, "Is the electronic version too cheap?"

"Not that cheap," Professor Watson explained, "the price of the printed version is the same as before, 88 dollars each. As for the electronic version, I priced it at 55 dollars. I originally thought that their prices were not much different and students would choose the printed version."

"I would also consider buying an electronic version." Hazel thought for a while and continued, "It is indeed cheaper."

"Professor, since you have made an electronic version, why have you printed so many printed versions? After all, many people like cheaper things." Vanessa said jokingly.

Joshua frowned.

If Vanessa had not come in with Professor Watson, he would not even let her in. She had repeatedly tried to provoke Hazel, and even though Hazel did not care, he would not allow her to act like that again.

"Professor naturally expected this and has presumably reduced the number that was printed." Joshua looked at Vanessa. "If you did not think of that, even with an IQ such as yours, I am afraid you are not suitable for working in Denmark Group."

Vanessa's face became pale, she did not expect that even in front of Professor Watson, he still did not consider her feelings and disgraced her. She could feel that Joshua was not joking.

"Joshua, my fault. I didn't make it clear." Professor Watson was a little embarrassed. "We have reduced the number of the printed version. We used to print 5,000 copies. This time we only printed 3000 copies, I thought this was not that much, and we could sell them all. However, we did not even sell half of the copies."

Vanessa bit her lips and was eager to prove to Joshua that she was clever. She took a deep breath and quickly proposed, "Professor, what about Joshua and I buy out the remaining printed version?"

"No, no!" Professor Watson shook his head quickly. "I want to sell them, but how could I sell them to you? You do not need that many. I would be grateful if you could think of ways to help me sell them."

Vanessa was left speechless, she had no other ideas except for buying them out. Suddenly, she smiled deviously at Hazel and said, "Hazel, you must have some good ideas."
