Robin had worked in the business industry for many years, but this was the first time she had displayed such a lack of confidence in her abilities.Terence observed her current expression at the moment with a small smile on his face."When my uncle was working, his only task was to welcome representatives from companies cooperating with Weiss Group. His main goal was to maintain the company's image and relationships."Naturally, you won't need to put in too much effort if you were to take up his position. In fact, the work would be a lot easier than what you've been doing at the Angevin branch," Terence said.Chandler had gotten Terence to take over the company once Terence was of age. Since then, Chandler hadn't managed the company's affairs, no matter how important they were.He always let Terence bear all the pressure and find solutions to issues by himself.With Terence around, having a vice president around Weiss Group made no difference.But before Chandler was investigate
"Alright," said Terence as he nodded in earnest. Chandler was his uncle. As far as he was concerned, Chandler had spent more time with him than his parents had. In truth, Chandler was just as important to Terence as his father. So, of course, he would not stand by and watch Chandler become entangled. It was still unclear who the Blake family's support was. If Terence intervened now, they would surely attack. Given that the enemy was lurking in the shadows, he could not be rash.When Robin heard Terence agree, she finally felt somewhat relieved. She knew Terence well. Since he had given her his word, he would follow through."Then I'll head over to the Angevin branch to get the rest sorted out, and—" Terence cut Robin's words off, "I've already assigned someone to make the arrangements over there. Don't worry about that. All you have to do now is stay with me."As Terence said that, he leaned in to kiss Robin. But they were interrupted by a knock on the door. Terence's e
Robin watched Terence deal with this with a calm look on her face. Then, she snapped out of her trance when she remembered Sylvia was still waiting for her outside Terence's office."I have to go take care of something else," she said casually. With that, she rose from her seat. Terence nodded and watched her leave. After Robin had left, Monica finally drew a long breath and spoke. "Terence, no matter what, we still grew up together. Do you really think it's appropriate for you to target me now because of Ms. Sage?"Even though I'm not as capable as her, I didn't make a mistake serious enough to get me demoted, did I?" It was extremely difficult for Monica to admit to Terence that she was not as capable as Robin. Nonetheless, as things stood, Terence would be even more upset with her if she did not admit her skills were inadequate.She continued, "Terence, my current position in the president's office isn't even that important. Why does Ms. Sage find it so hard to
Monica had assumed that, at worst, she would still be at the headquarters. However, now that she was being transferred to the Angevin branch, there would be little chance of her appearing at the headquarters. She was disgruntled. Nonetheless, she was powerless against Terence. Casting a detached glance at Monica, who had been silent, Terence said coldly, "You may leave." With that, Monica turned around and left Terence's office.… After talking to Sylvia, Robin entered Chandler's office with Wilson leading the way.Chandler's office had undergone a cleanup. It was quite empty. There was only a single potted plant and some office equipment. Not much paperwork was waiting to be addressed on Chandler's desk.Robin looked somewhat perplexed. She knew Chandler did not concern himself much with work after taking over Weiss Group. However, she was surprised by Chandler's light workload.Seemingly recognizing Robin's confusion, Wilson smiled as he explained, "Taking into acc
It was obvious that Monica was the one who had been receiving training in etiquette since she was a child.Whether it be managing her own expressions or speaking, Monica used to have personal tutors come to the house to teach her one-on-one since young.But at this moment, Robin seemed more refined than her. Robin looked like a refined young lady who had received an excellent education while Monica looked worthless in her presence.Monica took a deep breath and directed an extremely dissatisfied glare at Robin."Stop pretending. It's just the two of us here now. Don't you find it uncomfortable to put on such a facade all the time?" she said.Robin raised an eyebrow lightly at that. She then placed her coffee cup on the table and looked at Monica with a serious gaze."Ms. Blake, all I did was ask if something worth my pride had happened. You haven't even told me anything yet and you're already accusing me of putting on a facade."Could it be that you're just so accustomed to pret
Robin nodded in response and said nothing more as she stepped into her office.When she returned to her office, Wilson had already brought over some documents for her to go over.Robin began to attend to her duties after she sat down at her desk.She didn't leave her desk until the end of the day.Since Robin's current position in the company was completely different now, she had to approach her work with heightened spirits and seriousness.Terence had a dinner appointment later that evening. As he was about to leave, he noticed that Robin's office door was still open. He walked over and saw that Robin was still working inside, so he invited himself in.Upon entering, he approached Robin from the side and saw that she was reviewing a proposal.Terence stood quietly by the side and examined the proposal with her for a moment.Eventually, Robin sensed that someone was beside her. When she looked up, she saw that Terence was standing next to her. She hadn't noticed when he had ent
Robin's expression shifted slightly at Terence's offer. "I don't think that's a good idea," she pointed out with a sheepish laugh. After all, she was not invited in the first place.Terence ruffled Robin's hair and asked gently, "Why not? You know most of the invited guests. Jean and Tyler will likely show up too."The Harpers are the ones throwing the party, and they've worked with Larson Group before. Tyler told me you were the project planner."Robin nodded. "Yeah, they had a few collaborations with Larson Group."Terence pulled Robin up from her seat. Holding her hand, he said evenly, "You've only just joined Weiss Group, and with your current role, you're expected to show up at a few social events. Come on, we'll go together."He did not let go of her hand as he said this and led her out of the office.Robin looked down at their clasped hands. She made a move to draw hers back, worried that the other employees might talk if they saw her and Terence like this.However, T
Terence's expression remained the same at the mention of Brian, though he remarked evenly, "I haven't heard from him recently."Tyler's brows knitted together as he said, "Neither have we, but I doubt our years of friendship would be brought down by something as trivial as this."Terence nodded and said, "I visited him at the hospital the day after I beat him up, but he gave me the impression that he wouldn't give up on Robin that easily."He had never imagined that Brian, his best friend for years, would become his love rival.Tyler frowned, silently agreeing with Terence that this was indeed a tricky situation. Both men fell silent as they considered the problem at hand.Robin and Jean had already walked quite a distance ahead when they noticed that neither Tyler nor Terence had caught up to them.Stopping in their tracks, Robin and Jean looked at where the two men were.Jean was the first to speak, "Hurry up, you guys."It was only then that Tyler made a verbal response a
