How I Accidentally Married a Billionaire
Chapter 297 - Chapter 297 Chapter 296

Chapter 297: Chapter 296 Chapter 297: Chapter 296 Ken Davis asked, “Nephew, what brought you to the company today?”

Ellis Olsen smiled, not saying a word, but responded, “Just wandering around. Uncle Davis, may I visit your New Energy Research and Development Department?”

Upon hearing this, Ken Davis suddenly thought of something, “Are you here to see Mary?”

Of course, Ken Davis had an impression of his niece from another branch.

Not only was she strikingly noticeable, but her capabilities were also outstanding–she was the only one from the second branch employed by the Davis Corporation.

He remembered that the Davis Corporation had wanted to form a marital alliance with the Olsen Family and introduced several girls to Ellis Olsen, including Mary from the second branch.

But later, someone from the second branch reported that it didn’t work out.

Ken Davis didn’t take it to heart. His own daughter and Ellis Olsen hadn’t taken a liking to each other either. Matters of marriage relied on fate; there was no need to rush.

Ellis Olsen coughed, “Right, there are some matters I need to discuss with her.”

“Sure, I’ll accompany you.”

“Thanks, Uncle Davis!”

The two of them talked as they walked to the elevator.

The elevator opened.

Ellis Olsen and Ken Davis entered the CEO-exclusive elevator and went straight to the R&D department but didn’t see Keira Olsen or Mary Davis.

Ellis Olsen looked around, while Ken Davis directly asked a staff member, “Where’s Mary? Ellis came to see her!”

“Just now, she was fired by Wayne Davis, the President! He said she embezzled funds, investing the company’s project money into her best friend’s company, and now they can’t produce any results…”

Ken Davis was shocked, “Fired? What about Brian? Get him here; I want to know what’s going on!”

The staff member’s face showed a conflicted expression, “Uh, Brian was also fired. President Davis said he was in cahoots with Mary.”

Ken Davis: ???

Ken Davis awkwardly turned to look at Ellis Olsen, still somewhat confused, “This…”

Ellis Olsen furrowed his brows, not expecting he had arrived too late!

See, without him things just didn’t work out; now they got fired!

Ken Davis then took out his phone and dialed Mary, “Mary, where are you? Come explain things… the underground parking lot? Then you come–”

Before he could finish, Ellis Olsen had already turned and was walking downstairs.

Ken Davis, who had initially wanted Mary to come upstairs, paused and changed his words, “Don’t go, we’ll come to you!”

“We?”

Mary Davis looked at the hung-up phone, slightly startled, then anxiously looked at Keira Olsen, “Miss, my uncle said he’s coming to find me!”

Keira Olsen nodded, “Oh.”

After saying that, she realized there was a dumbfounded look on Mary Davis’s face, and she understood immediately, “Are you scared of him?”

“Of course! Who wouldn’t be afraid of him?”

Mary Davis swallowed hard, “He’s the head of the Davis family. When Grandpa was the family head, we used to live together, and the head of the first branch was very imposing. We younger ones were all scared of him, and after Grandpa died and the family split, the head became even more authoritative. We hardly dared to speak in his presence…”

As they were talking, a voice came over, “Mary Davis, hey, Miss South!”

Turning around, they saw Brian running towards them.

Mary Davis felt very sorry toward Brian, “Brian, I’m sorry, this is all my fault…”

Brian had always been kind to her, and he responded with an excited expression, “Sorry for what? I should be thanking you!”

Mary Davis: ?

The position of head of the Davis Corporation’s R&D Department was prestigious, and it had taken Brian twenty years to get there. Now that he was fired, was he stunned?!

Then Brian looked at Keira Olsen, “CEO South, erm… may I humbly ask, now that I’ve been fired, can I join your company?!”

Keira Olsen didn’t hesitate, “Of course you can!”

Brian had always been supportive of them, and the company indeed needed a manager. He was just the right fit.

Brian immediately got excited, “Really?”

“Yes.”

Mary Davis added, “Brian, are you sure? Miss’s company is very small… we can’t offer a high salary… and right now, we still owe a large debt to the Davis Corporation…”

Keira Olsen had explained a new plan to Mary Davis the previous night, but since Mary was not into research, she didn’t fully comprehend the significance of this project.

Brian quickly said, “Salary is not important, what’s important is, with CEO South’s project in hand, our company’s place in the top spots of the new energy industry is assured! As for that debt… CEO South, don’t worry, I just called the investment manager of the Olsen Family R&D department. They are already on their way here, ready to cover that twenty million at any moment!”

Mary Davis: …

She felt like Brian might be overstating things a bit.

As the three of them chatted, Wayne Davis also came downstairs and upon seeing them, immediately came over, sneering, “What, can’t bear to leave? Brian, I can forgive your recent oversight, just admit your mistake, and I’ll let you come back to work!”

Brian paused, his mouth twitching, “President Davis, that… no need, I’ve found a new job.”

Wayne Davis frowned, “So quickly? I think you just wanted to leave!”

Then he turned to Mary Davis, “Do you know your mistake? If you do, just kneel down and kowtow to apologize. If I’m in a good mood, I might just ask the company to give your friend’s company more time!”

Mary Davis took a deep breath, “Uncle, no need!”

She didn’t dare say anything too harsh, knowing her parents and grandmother still depended on him for their livelihood.

Her parents and grandmother, pampered by the Davis family, simply refused to leave the house, always watching for her uncle’s approval.

That’s why Mary Davis had always striven so hard, to secure a foothold in the Davis Corporation!

Ever since she had started working at the Davis Corporation, her uncle had actually improved his attitude towards their family…

But now… she had offended her uncle, and the days ahead were likely to be difficult.

Seeing her so stubborn, Wayne Davis nearly lost his mind, “Mary Davis, don’t push your luck! Do you believe I can disown your grandmother and your father right now?! Strip your family of everything!!”

Mary Davis’s pupils dilated sharply.

Her grandmother had always wanted to be buried with her grandfather; it was her life’s only hope!

Now, old and yellowed, she was just waiting for that day.

If disowned… her grandmother would likely never be able to accept this blow! Her parents couldn’t bear the consequences either!

Furious, she clenched her fists, her eyes brimming with tears as she stared at Wayne Davis, “You…”

Just then–“Ding!”

The elevator sounded.

Ellis Olsen and Ken Davis strode out from the elevator…
