Chapter 1339
You have no idea how tortuous it was to be called nonstop.”
As the voices of the two colleagues faded along with the sound of their footsteps, Millie stared at Shera’s phone number, a thoughtful expression on her face.
She did remember the particular application they were talking about.
But to be sure, Millie searched online and checked out the features of the Call Again app. According to its website, the Call Again app could make five prank calls per minute.
But it wasn’t free. For example, if she paid 100 dollars, the app would call Shera non-stop for three hours.
This was such a disgusting app.
Millie smiled evilly and paid for the app to call Shera for 24 hours.

In Peach Town.
There was a red carpet that led to the venue. Dignitaries and people from different walks of lives milled around the red carpet, exchanging pleasantries as they made their way to their seats. By this time, Marcus had unbuttoned his coat and sat in the middle of the front row. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
When everyone had settled, the host got on the stage and began his impassioned speech.
“Today is a good day for our Peach Town. The Thomas Group in Preagend has decided to donate money to build a primary school here, so that every child in our town can have the opportunity to go to school and receive the knowledge that would make them a greater person in future. Thanks to the
kindness of the Thomas Group, we are here for a groundbreaking ceremony. Now, let’s all give a warm welcome to Mr. Thomas as he makes his way to the stage to give a speech.”
The audience burst into applause, and several reporters took pictures of Marcus as he got up from his seat.
Marcus walked briskly to the stage, nodded at the host and faced the crowd to give his speech.
“The Thomas Group has always been committed to giving back to the society because we know that our company will grow when the society grows. And the children are the hope of the society. That is why we want every child to have the opportunity to go to school. Here, on behalf of the Thomas Group, I sincerely invite all leaders and friends to participate in the subsequent construction of Sun Primary School.
After the ceremony, the mayor of Oldfort, the city where Peach Town was located, invited Marcus to the reception room for a chat.
When she heard the mayor’s invitation, Shera volunteered to make tea for them.
“Mr. Thomas, in the past few years, the Thomas Group has helped us build three primary schools, two nursing homes and one welfare house.
It has helped thousands of people. Thomas Group is really a good company. On behalf of all the people in Oldfort, I thank you,” the mayor said, expressing his heartfelt gratitude to Thomas Group and Marcus.
Marcus smiled, relaxing into his seat in the spacious reception room.
“You’re welcome. We will continue our charity work, and we will continue to support Oldfort for as long as we have the opportunity.”
The mayor smiled gleefully and finally got to his reason for having this meeting.
“Mr. Thomas, as you know, Oldfort is rich in jade raw materials, and your company happens to be the leader in the jewelry industry. I’m thinking about cooperating with you in the jade materials industry.
What do you think?”
Shera, who was in the midst of brewing tea, suddenly stopped. The mayor’s proposal was indeed a win-win.
