###Chapter 40 The Problem Of Astley

After nodding, Maisie looked at me with gossip on her face and said, "I said, do you have anything to do with this Dr. Silverman?"

Ivelle pushed Maisie's head away from her. She then got up and went back to her bedroom. "Good night, stop gossiping!"

"Hey, Ivelle Astley, come back here."

Ivelle ignored her and went back to the bedroom. She began to work on Astley's audit of the case before the bid tomorrow.

She thought the middle-aged man would show up again that night. She didn't want a few days to go by and there was no movement at all.

She was a little confused about what was happening.

The next day.

It was getting hotter and hotter in Hempstead. At 08:00 the sun climbed over the wall and began to shine. Maisie was a night owl, so she never gets up early.

As for Ivelle, things had been busy these past two days; she had to get up early every day.

She hurriedly went to the company, Kyle Branson handed me the information and said, "Let's go straight to the bidding site."

Ivelle nodded. She picked up the information and went out of the office with the computer and Kyle Branson.

At the elevator entrance, she met Jordan Astley and Brad Silverman. When Dr. Brad Silverman saw Ivelle, he handed her the lunch box in his hand and said, "The soup that Chef Coleman stewed for you is good for your body's recovery. I heard that you have vomited a lot recently. It should be a false pregnancy after a miscarriage. Just recuperate for a while."

Ivelle was worried that Jordan would be suspicious. When Dr. Silverman said this, she breathed a sigh of relief, looked at him, and said, "Thank you!"

Jordan Astley's face was gloomy and emotionless. Ivelle couldn't figure out his temper or what kind of feelings he had for her.

The elevator door opened and the four entered the elevator together. The atmosphere was a little cold, but no one wanted to talk right until they got out of the elevator.

Kyle Branson looked at me and said, "Ms. Ivelle, you and Mr. Jordan Astley are going?"

"It's getting late, so let us hurry to the bidding site!" Ivelle didn't want to talk any more. She and Jordan Astley had not seen each other or said anything since the last time they saw each other at the restaurant.

When she came to the bidding scene, she met Parker Wesley, who was an inconvenience. When he saw me, he stepped forward. The young man was full of vitality and looked at me with sunshine on his face and said, "Ms. Ivelle, there you are!"

Ivelle did not like his self-familiarity. She nodded slightly and went straight into the bidding scene. There were more people coming today, all tried to fight for the fat piece of Astley's audit.

After most of the bidding was held, she had a slight headache, and she didn't know what it was. Kyle Branson saw that something was wrong with Ivelle Astley, so he helped her to the restroom and poured her a cup of water. "Ms. Ivelle, there were several companies involved in the bidding. There is no excuse for you to not go to the hospital. So, please go."

Ivelle shook her head. After listening to most of it just now, she took a sip of water. She looked at him and said, "Go and have a look at the bidding company at the back. If you found a suitable one, leave it for reference. Do not forget it!"

She had heard more than half of it and knew enough about the details. So, she sat in the lounge for a while, as Kyle Branson went over and continued to listen.

It was really not easy to be a mother. Ivelle, who thought of herself as invincible, would make such a small mistake on such an occasion.

"Why are you so obsessed?" A cold voice sounded, teasing evil.

She glanced sideways and saw that it was Parker Wesley. He rubbed his eyebrows and said, "What are you doing here if you're not going to bid?"

"I care about you!" With that, he came up behind me and rubbed my temples. The boy's hands were strong and moderate. She wanted to move away and was held down by him.

Parker Wesley coldly ordered her; "Stop being so brave!"

Ivelle didn't have much energy, so she relented and just followed him. Not to mention that His massage helped relieve her headache after a while.

After a while, he let go, looked at her, and said, "What do you think?"

Ivelle nodded. "Much better, thank you!"

He found a seat and sat down. His face was no longer frivolous, but he became a little more serious. "What kind of relationship do you have with Jordan Astley?"

This topic was too boring; she furrowed her eyebrow, "Isn't it the bid result that Mr. Parker Wesley should be concerned about now?"

He smiled. "I care more about you!"

She ignored his words and saw Kyle Branson coming. She thought the bidders have finished talking. Kyle Branson said that all the data on the bidders were gathered together to make a comparison.

She picked out a few suitable candidates, looked at him, and said, "Kindly make a report. Compare the audits they have done in the past two years with the companies you have contacted, and then sift them out and give them to me!"

After receiving the information, Kyle Branson nodded, took a look at Parker Wesley. He hesitated and said to me, "Ms. Ivelle, shall I send someone for you, or...?"

"Assistant Branson, go and get busy! I'll take her back later! " Parker Wesley made a speech in advance.

Kyle Bronson looked at Ivelle as if asking what she wanted him to do. She glanced at Parker Wesley and said, "Go and get busy!"

After Kyle Branson left, she looked at Parker Wesley and said, "If you keep popping up at every corner, I will not hesitate!"

He cannot appear for no reason and stay for a long time talking about the subject no one has time to spend discussing with him.

Seeing that she was so straightforward, he raised his eyebrows and curled his lips. "Ivelle Astley, it's not a good thing that girls are too smart!"

Ivelle ignored him. She picked up her bag and got ready to go.

He stopped and said, "Astley's audit is related to Astley's future. Have you ever thought carefully about why Jordan Astley chose me despite his cooperation with AC for many years?"

When she got back to my seat, she didn't open her mouth. She just waited for him to go on.

He found a seat beside me and sat down and said, "Astley has been on the market for a year. On the face of it, Astley's development is at its peak and there is no problem. But if you think about it carefully, why is the project that you and Dean Blakely are in charge of was delayed for a few days? Will cause huge economic losses to Astley? Do you really think that Astley's development is too fast, yet is having losses caused by the capital delay? "

Ivelle frowned and did not open her mouth, and waited for him to go on.

"Such a huge Astley project will cause losses due to the delay in the final payment of a project, which means that Astley's internal reserves are likely to be deficient. Jordan Astley did not continue to cooperate with AC because once there is a financial deficit in AC's audit report, it will lead to a sharp fall in Astley's stocks and panic among investors."

She just frowned slightly at what he said, and then looked at him and said, "but Jordan Astley did not directly assign you to do Astley's audit. Besides, do I know more about Astley's situation as the director of the company than you do?"

"Oh!" He sneered, "Ivelle Astley, it's not a good thing to be too arbitrary!"

Ivelle got up as she didn't have much to say to him, and said, "Astley's audit, since I said I would bid, will depend on your credit ability. As for Astley's situation, I think I know better than you. Mr. Parker had better go home and wait for the news!"

With that, she got out of the lounge and went straight to the car.

She started the car and recalled him again. This was not without significance, but also could not be fully believed. These years, Astley was not without the loss caused by the delay in the final payment, so it is a normal situation.

But it does not rule out that there is a problem with Astley's funds!
