Chapter 164

The senior executives were feeling pleased with their proposal, but they saw Hunter put down the documents in his hand with a nonchalant tone.

"Did you finish talking?"

"That's it, that's it. I know you're busy, President. Just leave this kind of person to me to handle!"

Hunter called James in.

James pushed his glasses up on his nose and said with a smile.

"You were fired."

The senior management thought they had misheard, straightened their backs, looked at James, and then looked at Hunter.

Hunter never looked up at him, maintaining a cold and indifferent posture.

The high-ranking official's cheeks turned bright red, and their lips trembled several times.

"President, my recent business has been fairly successful. I made money on several projects and I want to know why."

Hunter put down the pen in his hand and pulled out a few reports from the side, his tone was very indifferent.

"Private account became public account."

The face of the senior executive instantly turned red. He had done this very discreetly, and it was like an unwritten rule. He was taking money from the partner's side, which couldn't be considered as taking advantage of the company. He had done it before, but he didn't expect to stumble this time.

"President, everyone is doing it, why am I the one being fired?"

Hunter leaned back, his good mood completely vanished, "They are not as tactless as you."

The senior executive's cheeks turned pale, but until now, he still didn't know where he had been lacking in tact. Wasn't he supposed to be worrying for the company?

James made a "please" gesture.

The senior executive hung his head and walked out slowly, only able to accept this outcome.

The top-level staff heard that there had been a change in the upper management and were whispering among themselves.

The senior management changes in the Reid Group are a big deal, and usually there would be prior notice. But this time, there was no information at all, and they just made the switch without any warning.

When Lena arrived at the company, she happened to hear this gossip as well - someone from the top management stepped down?

She was also shocked. If it was suddenly changed, it would mean that it was Hunter's idea, and Hunter must be in a very bad mood now.

It is now close to the end of the workday. She asked someone to deliver the revised contract at this time, and Hunter will receive it later.

So, did this happen to coincide with the barrel of Hunter's gun?

Lena was about to make a phone call to ask the person delivering the contract to come back another day, but before she had a chance to make the call, she saw James approaching her.

"The president asked you to go in."

Every time James faced her, he would be very indifferent.

Lena put down her phone and entered the CEO's office.

As soon as she saw it, she straightened her back. Just a minute ago, the contract from the Dawson family had already been delivered to Hunter. Now it lay by his side, as the cover of the contract was personally bound by Lena herself. She couldn't be more familiar with it.

Damn it, these people weren't this proactive when doing other things, why did they deliver so quickly this time!

Now Hunter called her in, it was definitely to interrogate her.

Sure enough.

Hunter's fingertips tapped on the contract, and he chuckled, "Did your family treat the Reid Group like monkeys?"

Lena felt even more uneasy in her heart, it seemed that Hunter was indeed very angry, to the point of saying such words.

"Mr. Reid, I was not aware of this matter."

As soon as the words fell, he squinted his eyes and said, "But I heard that this plan was proposed by you personally."

Damn Tristin!

Lena's mind was spinning fast, but no matter what excuses she found, the fact remained that the Dawson family had betrayed Hunter, and she herself was still working here, which was no different from betrayal.

People in high positions like Hunter probably hate betrayal the most.

She felt uneasy in her heart, but she saw him put the contract aside and asked, "Are you free tonight?"

"Ah? There was, there was, there was!"

I don't know if it was her illusion, but when she nodded busily like pounding garlic, she always felt a hint of amusement flickering in his eyes.

It disappeared quickly, making it difficult to catch.

"Come with me to the Moonlight Lounge."

"Okay."

Since he no longer brought up this topic, she also took the opportunity to step down from it.

At the same time, I was also marveling in my heart that Hunter was really kind. It seems that I will have to double my feedback to him in the future.

She pushed him into the elevator and was about to bend down to say something to him, but the elevator opened and she saw a young man.

The man greeted Hunter with a smile.

"Hunter, what a coincidence."

Hunter's older brother, Keaton Reid, had two sons, and the one standing outside the elevator is one of them, named Grady Reid.

Grady's gaze fell on Lena and he chuckled, "This is Ms. Dawson, what a coincidence, I didn't expect Hunter to be able to coexist peacefully with Ms. Dawson."

From the moment he appeared, the atmosphere in the private room became gloomy.

Lena pushed the person out, and outside was the underground parking garage. What did Grady come to the Reid Group for?

Over the years, Hunter acquired many companies. In order to provide training opportunities for the younger generation, the old man sent them all to the surrounding branches. Currently, the headquarters only consists of Hunter, a few elders, and one younger member, Hayden.

Hunter's tone was indifferent, "Is there something wrong?"

Grady had already entered the elevator, at least on the surface, he was still polite. "I'm going to check on Hayden, I don't know if his wedding can still take place as scheduled. As his cousin, I naturally care. Hunter, I'm going up first."

Lena wanted to say that Hayden was not in the company, but she was not familiar with this Grady at all.

And when she saw this person, she felt uncomfortable.

Grady's gaze was like a venomous snake, ready to strike and bite at any moment.

Hunter found the appearance of the Reid family the most comfortable to look at.

This time she drove Hunter's car, helping him to the passenger seat, unable to help muttering.

"Could the wedding really not be canceled?"

Hunter's gaze fell on her profile as she dutifully came over to fasten his seatbelt.

But she couldn't fasten the seatbelt no matter how hard she tried, causing her nose to sweat in anxiety.

In the midst of the hustle and bustle, a large hand suddenly covered hers, giving a gentle push, and the button was easily fastened.

Lena froze, feeling the scorching heat in the palm of his hand.

She suddenly backed up a long way to the driver's seat, and her hands firmly landed on the steering wheel.

Was it her illusion?

Why did it feel like Hunter was a little strange?

She has recently developed a closer relationship with Mr. H, and this intimacy between them is no longer as dull as before.

She didn't say anything next, but she heard him ask, "How is it going with your boyfriend?"

Thinking of Mr. H, Lena's lips curved.

Although she didn't know what he looked like, Mr. H felt different to her. He was like a content and clingy Golden Retriever. Sometimes people can be quite ordinary, but they like the clingy nature of their partner. It gives them a sense of pride.

"Very well."

"Have you ever thought about when to meet the parents?"

Lena didn't expect him to ask that, so she drove for a while before telling the truth.

"We haven't considered it yet, but we would like to get to know each other better. Currently, we are getting along quite well."

At least in that aspect, things were indeed harmonious. The love between adults actually didn't involve so much twists and turns. Being able to be harmonious in bed is already better than eighty percent of couples. How many girls endure that aspect for a few minutes because they love their partner.

Lena was not okay, in bed she liked the feeling of being taken over, and the sticky strength of the other person.

She could just work hard and support him by earning money.

Hunter turned his head and saw the tenderness in her eyes, as well as the unintentional curve of her lips.

He shifted his gaze away, looking out of the window, and extended one hand to touch his cheek, covering the corner of his mouth.
