Chapter 1600: Chapter 1599: Reid Nelson Wants to Resign_1

Two days had passed, and Rylan Williams exhibited his typical young master’s temperament. Apart from having a villa renovated just for his residence, he brought some sycophantic officials to various places in the county for extravagant meals and drinks. At night they reveled in pleasure, showing no interest in actual work.

"Peter, I’m planning to resign!"

At twelve o’clock, Reid Nelson surprisingly showed up at Peter Brown’s dormitory.

Seeing her face flushed like a peach blossom and smelling the alcohol on her breath, Peter knew they had accompanied Rylan Williams to entertain yet again today.

Peter poured a glass of water for Reid and said, "You drank so much again!"

Reid let out a bitter laugh and then suddenly began to cry loudly.

"What’s wrong?" Peter asked anxiously.

"I’ve decided, I’m going to resign!" Reid said seriously as she took the paper from Peter to wipe her tears.

"Did Rylan Williams bully you?" Peter had a feeling that the issue arose from something Williams had done.

"Peter, I wasn’t wrong about him, Rylan Williams is a womanizer. He wasn’t satisfied with having Ivy Cooper, now he’s pressuring me!"

Indeed, Ivy Cooper had been living it up these past few days, having quickly become involved with Rylan Williams. Consequently, her popularity in the subsidiary company soared, and she spoke and acted with newfound confidence.

"He pressured you again today?"

"He said that there will be a major reshuffle of the middle management soon. The changes will be significant. If I become his woman, I could keep my position; otherwise, I would be demoted to work at a lower level."

Peter cursed, "Damn it!"

"Today, he said we were going out for business entertainment, but it was actually just him inviting me out. He even said he had booked a room, waiting to see how I’d respond!"

"You didn’t agree?"

"Hmph, although I don’t mind doing that sort of thing, I’ve had enough. I feel like I have no future in this company, and I’m not planning to stay!"

Peter sighed. It was clear that Reid truly didn’t want to continue.

"What are your plans?"

"Didn’t you already create a mobile game? I have some classmates from university who live in the provincial city and Kingston, and a few of them understand this stuff. I want to give it a try. You’re not going to go back on your word, are you?" Reid said, looking into Peter’s eyes.

"How do you feel about the game you’ve played?" Peter knew Reid had been playing the mobile game these days.

"I didn’t just play yours, I also tried some popular mobile games. Your mobile game is better than those in every aspect. I think it’s feasible!"

"I may have created that thing, but if you want to handle it, I’m going to leave all the work to you, and I won’t interfere much. Can you handle it?" After creating it, Peter wanted to give it a try, not minding if hundreds of thousands were spent without success. Now that Reid showed interest, Peter naturally didn’t mind letting her have a go.

"Still 500,000?" Reid looked at Peter.

Peter Brown nodded and said, "If that’s not enough, I can still figure something out. If you come to work on this, how many shares do you want?"

Upon hearing Peter’s question, Reid Nelson replied, "I really don’t have any money, I can only help you with this matter. I don’t need any shares, just pay me a salary no less than what I’m getting here."

Peter Brown smiled and said, "That definitely won’t do. You’ll be managing the entire operation, and even if I offered you more, you wouldn’t take it. So, I’ll give you 10% of the shares, and an initial annual salary of 500,000, which can increase later. Of course, this all rests on the success of the mobile game, and if it doesn’t take off, everything is void. Do you dare to do it?"

Reid Nelson nodded vigorously, "Why wouldn’t I dare? As long as you’re not afraid of me running off with your money, I’m willing to give it a try."

Peter laughed, "To test a person’s character with 500,000 is not a big deal, and I haven’t had enough fun at this branch yet; I still want to stick around. So, you handle everything about the company and don’t come to me."

In the midst of conversation, Peter Brown took Reid Nelson’s account information and directly transferred 500,000 into her bank card.

Watching Peter’s actions, Reid Nelson was speechless for a long while. Tears welled up again as she felt deeply moved. After so many years, Peter was the only one who trusted her unconditionally and supported her.

Thinking of this, Reid Nelson suddenly felt the weight on her shoulders increase. She thought to herself that she must succeed at all costs and absolutely cannot let Peter down.

"Are you really not worried I’ll take the money and run?" Reid Nelson asked once more.

Peter Brown just smiled, "500,000 is just the beginning. I believe you’ll earn much more than that if you follow me. I will handle all the website and technical aspects. You just need to hire some maintenance technical staff and figure out the rest on your own."

"I have a good classmate who’s in charge of distribution at a mobile game company, and she’s really good at it. I plan to contact her to come over. With her, it’ll be much easier to get things going, I just don’t know if we can offer enough to get her to join us," she said.

Peter Brown waved his hand, "As I said, you’re in charge of everything. I’ll handle anything that needs my signature. I’ll take care of the technical side. Use the 500,000 for the operations."

"Alright, I’ll do it. I’ll resign tomorrow!"

Reid Nelson was a decisive person, and with Peter’s support, she now felt full of confidence about her future.

Watching Reid Nelson leave like that, Peter felt a bit reluctant to part with her. She was truly a good woman, what a pity!

Peter was not worried about Reid Nelson failing. To others, 500,000 might seem like a lot, but for Peter, it really wasn’t a big deal. Using 500,000 to test Reid Nelson, to see her true nature, and whether she had the ability was something Peter had in mind.

In fact, Peter had full control over everything about the mobile game, and if Reid Nelson were to betray him, he could take care of her within minutes.

Sure enough, it wasn’t long after Reid Nelson left that Peter Brown overheard Rylan Williams calling Ivy Cooper.

Rylan Williams sounded rather authoritative over the phone, directly giving the room number and asking Ivy to come over.

It was clear that Ivy had already fallen for Rylan’s charm, and she agreed almost immediately upon receiving the call.

Hearing the two shamelessly arranging their tryst, Peter sat there in contemplation, knowing the restructuring of the middle management would soon take place. Rylan hadn’t shown any progress on the renovation he had agreed to help with, seemingly having deliberately forgotten about it. Peter sensed a deep crisis from this lack of action; the kid might just be planning something against him.

What kind of measures could he possibly resort to?

For the moment, Peter really couldn’t figure out what Rylan might do, but he still felt guarded against him.

Reid Nelson’s resignation tomorrow would probably stir up some trouble again.
