You're Just My Ex-Husband,My Lord-Chapter 190- I wish you all the best in the future
After sitting down on the guest sofa in Danny’s office, Danny smiled and spoke.
"Laurent, I won’t beat around the bush. Matthew has approached me several times, saying he wants to bring you to their company. What do you think about that?"
Laurent was taken aback. She hadn’t expected Matthew to directly bring up the idea of poaching her. For a moment, she was stunned, then quickly responded.
"Don’t worry, Manager. I won’t go. I’ve already turned down Matthew."
Since the first time Laurent worked on an order with Matthew, he had praised her greatly, appreciating how meticulous and serious she was, and how well she coordinated with the factory departments. She was also good with people.
After six months of collaboration, Matthew had started to consider bringing her to Burg Eltz. He believed she was suited for broader development opportunities, not just limited to a small factory like this.
Laurent rejected the offer right away. She felt she couldn’t be ungrateful—the current factory had nurtured and helped her grow, so how could she just leave when she had just started to see some success? That would be too unkind.
Moreover, she didn’t really want to leave. After all, her beloved parents were here.
But Matthew hit the nail on the head when he said that Burg Eltz would allow her to see her daughter every day after work. She wouldn’t have to wait until the weekend to see her.
Laurent knew that Matthew’s primary goal in recruiting her was to have her contribute more value to his company. However, Laurent had to admit that Matthew’s offer was a huge temptation. Still, she later realized that the custody of her child belonged to Dave, and it wasn’t as simple as just deciding to see her whenever she wanted.
Yesterday, when she went to deliver something to Matthew, he brought up the idea of persuading her to switch jobs again. She maintained her initial stance and refused.
Matthew tried to convince her from various angles to join Burg Eltz, especially highlighting the convenience of being closer to her daughter. He argued that with a better platform, she could earn more money to support her parents. After all, she was their only child, and the financial burden of supporting them in the future would undoubtedly fall on her.
He also mentioned that at Burg Eltz, she’d have the chance to meet more young and talented people. While succeeding in her career, she might even find love, something she couldn’t expect to find in a small factory town.
Matthew listed many other reasons, and by the time Laurent left, she found it hard to even say a simple "no." While she hadn’t hoped for love, the potential to earn more money and the convenience of seeing her daughter swayed her.
As a child, there’s no one who doesn’t wish to provide the best life for their parents and ensure that after a lifetime of hard work, they can enjoy their later years.
As for her daughter, ever since the last time her daughter was frightened, Laurent had begun to feel that perhaps she shouldn’t be so far away. At least, if her daughter ever needed her, she could be there to support her.
However, despite the temptation and the difficulty in rejecting Matthew, she ultimately had to consider Danny.
Matthew might be both a mentor and a friend to her, but she couldn’t ignore Danny’s side of things.
Right now, foreign trade isn’t easy, and the factory has also struggled to retain talented salespeople. If she left now, it would really be inappropriate. What she hadn’t expected, though, was that Danny would bring up the issue directly today.
So, Laurent quickly explained her stance to Danny. After listening to her, Danny actually smiled.
"Laurent, I know you’re a kind-hearted person, and you probably don’t want to make things difficult for me, which is why you’re hesitant to switch jobs."
"In fact, after Matthew spoke to me about this, I thought about it for a long time. It wouldn’t be impossible for you to move to Matthew’s company. If you manage to secure clients there, you could have the orders placed with our factory. So, even if you leave, it wouldn’t be a loss for us."
Danny shared his thoughts further.
"If you go to Matthew, his salary offer will definitely be better than mine, and the conditions over there are also better than ours. As a boss, I obviously don’t want to lose an excellent employee like you, but we can’t be too selfish. I can’t hold you back from growing just for my own benefit."
"So, what do you think of this suggestion?"
Danny asked her in the end. Laurent, hearing his suggestion, suddenly felt a sense of clarity.
Yes, if she secured clients at Matthew’s company and continued to place the orders with the factory, the factory might earn slightly less in profit, but if her development at Matthew’s company offered more opportunities, she could secure even more clients, which would make up for the difference. From the factory’s perspective, there would be no loss.
In fact, this was a suggestion that benefited Laurent, Matthew, and the factory, with no party losing out. She of course agreed.
"Your idea is really brilliant," she said.
Laurent had been wavering about whether to switch jobs to Matthew’s company, but now that Danny had offered such a great idea and pushed her in that direction, she could only respectfully follow through.
"Thank you, Danny."
Laurent sincerely thanked Danny and then reassured him:
"Please rest assured, it was you who gave me this job opportunity when I had nothing, and helped me become who I am today. In the future, all the orders I secure will go to our factory."
Danny accepted her assurance with gratitude.
For Danny, it was because he trusted Laurent’s character. He believed she wasn’t the type of person to be ungrateful, and even if she left the factory, she would still give back. This is why he generously agreed to her switching jobs.
"Our factory will be on holiday starting tomorrow, and we won’t be back to work until after the fifteenth day of the lunar new year. When we start up again, you can come here to hand over your work. During the holiday, you can prepare for your transition to Burg Eltz."
After saying this, Danny stood up, extended his hand, and gave her his sincere blessing.
"Laurent, I wish you all the best in the future."
Laurent shook his hand lightly.
"Thank you for your blessings."
Laurent truly felt grateful—grateful for the people and experiences she encountered after starting her job. Although Maggie had added a lot of negative energy to her life, everyone else she interacted with, whether colleagues or clients, had been easy to communicate with and pleasant to get along with.
This, too, was a kind of fortune.
