Chapter 15
"Swiftly find yourself a girlfriend as well, so certain individuals can witness the blissful life of having a partner!" Phillip hinted with a purpose.
Romeo opened the breakfast he brought and placed it before him, saying, "If Carl had a girlfriend, would you take over his work?"
"I would!" unexpectedly, Phillip readily agreed, and Carl was moved.
"I would, not! But, Carl, if you have a girlfriend, I'll make sure this lad gives you some time off. At the very least, you won't need to work overtime on weekends anymore! I'll also prepare numerous wedding gifts for you! Furthermore, I'll have him hire a few more people to share your workload!"
Upon hearing this, Carl was deeply touched.
"Especially regarding your salary, it must be increased!"
"Yes, yes, exactly! Look at Carl's understanding and sensibility! Unlike you, never listening!" Phillip praised others while simultaneously complaining about his own grandson.
Carl basked in the compliments...
"Carl, there's a project in Antarctica that needs some hands."
Upon hearing Romeo's words, Carl became flustered, "Mr. McMillian, what I meant was..."
"You pack your things, and you'll leave tomorrow."
