Jeana thought it was strange that Jackie, a mere personal secretary, would call a guest like her by her name.Dressed in standard formal attire, Jackie looked particularly serious. "What, is there another person named Jeana here?"Jeana's expression instantly turned cold as she approached Jackie. "What is it?"She had initially intended to win Jackie's favor. However, Jackie was nothing like the other employees—she was impervious to flattery. So, Jeana had given up on trying to win her over."From now on, you will be the assistant handling administrative support for the entire secretariat department. Please manage all your responsibilities well," Jackie stated.Then, she turned to the other four secretaries. "If you need help with anything, you can ask Jeana to do it. You can get her to do things like send packages, pick up takeout, and so on."The four secretaries were incredulous. "We have an assistant too?"Jeana was equally stunned. "Are you kidding me? I'm here to take care
As the afternoon progressed, Jeana became even busier.Now that she didn't have anyone disturbing her, Yvette could finally focus on her work and study the regulations and policies governing employees under the company.However, it wasn't long before a woman arrived at the CEO's office. Londyn immediately stood up to greet her."Ms. Larson, are you here to see Mr. Lane?" she asked, her expression full of flattery.However, Marlene didn't even glance at her as her gaze swept across the room until it landed on Yvette's workspace. She walked straight over and pushed the door open without knocking.Yvette was engrossed in her work and didn't notice Marlene's arrival until she heard the noise. By the time she looked up, Marlene was already nearly in front of her."Tsk, tsk. Shannon really is ruthless. Did she actually make her daughter-in-law a secretary?"Yvette didn't pay much attention to Marlene's taunts. "Do you need something, Marlene?" she replied calmly.Yvette had bested Ma
Hearing this, Yvette looked up and replied, "Okay."She stood up and headed to Jeremiah's office, knocking before entering. Jeremiah looked up at her. "I heard Marlene came by. She didn't give you any trouble, did she?"Yvette truthfully explained the situation, telling Jeremiah that Marlene had instructed her to get the contract signed.Jeremiah immediately knew that Marlene was up to no good. After thinking for a moment, he said, "You can leave the contract here. I'll have someone else handle it."Yvette recalled the gossip in the office from earlier in the day. She knew that it would be detrimental to her reputation in the office if Jeremiah gave this task to another secretary."It's alright. I'll make sure I bring back the contract signed," Yvette insisted.Suspecting that Yvette didn't fully understand how difficult Marlene's task was, Jeremiah warned her, "Cassidy Hanstein is not an easy person to deal with. Not only might she not sign the contract, but she might also mak
Yvette heard back from the receptionist in no time. At that point, she started to worry.She was confident that she could get Cassidy to sign the contract if they met. However, Cassidy wouldn't even come to meet her now!So that was why Marlene had told Yvette to come here.The receptionist advised her, "I suggest that you leave, miss. Our boss never meets up with mere employees. Those working at Titan Corporation should know this. Why did they tell you to come?""They probably thought I could be an exception," Yvette replied.Since the receptionist had been bought over by money, she told Yvette, "Let me tell you something. Ms. Hanstein won't give you any special treatment. Even Lane Group's Ms. Marlene Larson barely got to meet Ms. Hanstein a few times when she came over."In fact, during the times they did meet, Ms. Larson was completely humiliated by Ms. Hanstein."Hearing this, Yvette couldn't help but smile a little. So even Marlene had faced rejection."Thank you for tell
However the receptionist's worries were completely unfounded as Yvette didn't hold a grudge against her.Upon arriving at the CEO's office on the upper floor, Cassidy immediately understood that Yvette was there to sign a contract. Without hesitation, she signed the documents and even asked Yvette how she knew Jacqueline, leading to an enjoyable conversation between them.Before leaving, Yvette gifted Cassidy the bracelet she had brought along."Yvette, you're too kind! If you need anything in the future, just come to me. Jacqueline and I are best friends. Now, you're my friend too," Cassidy announced as she accepted the gift without reservation.As they chatted for a while, time slipped away. It was already past 6:00 pm by the time Yvette left Hanstein Group.Meanwhile, most of the employees at Titan Corporation had left. Marlene grinned when she heard from Jeana that Yvette hadn't returned yet."She probably couldn't get the contract signed and is too embarrassed to come back,"
Jeana quickly stepped forward. "Yvet—Ms. Snyder, how did the contract signing go?"Yvette knew that these people weren't genuinely interested in the contract but rather in seeing whether she made a fool of herself. She took out the signed contract. "It's signed."The moment she said those words, everyone was in disbelief. How had Yvette managed to get the notoriously difficult CEO of Hanstein Group to sign?Cassidy was the most despised person among the employees. Whenever Jeremiah had to meet with her for work, none of them wanted to go with him, as it inevitably led to humiliation."That's impossible," Londyn uttered as she stepped forward, took the contract from Yvette, and checked it. Sure enough, it bore the official seal of Hanstein Group and Cassidy's signature. Nothing was amiss.Still in shock, the other employees gathered around to see.Jeana in particular was reluctant to accept this. Hadn't Marlene said that Cassidy was temperamental and would never agree to sign a
In the company, everyone was discussing how Yvette had managed to secure the contract. Jeremiah also called Yvette into his office to ask her how she'd done it.Yvette replied truthfully, "I happened to know a friend of Ms. Hanstein's. It's thanks to her that I got to know Ms. Hanstein.""I see." Jeremiah glanced outside, noticing that the sky was getting dark. "It's getting late. Let's get off work. I'll give you a ride home.""It's okay." Yvette immediately refused."I thought your driver didn't drive you here today," Jeremiah remarked. Since he'd had someone follow Yvette, he knew that she had taken a cab to Hanstein Group earlier.Yvette replied rather bashfully, "Xavier said he would pick me up and take me home from now on."Jeremiah's expression stiffened for a moment but quickly returned to normal. "Oh, I see. In that case, you should get off work early. Don't keep Xav waiting too long.""Okay." Yvette nodded and walked out of the office.After she left, Jeremiah receive
Bullying a young lady?As Zoey spoke, a few employees who had just gotten off work gathered around to watch the commotion.The sight of a tearful young woman accusing someone in front of a luxury car drew a lot of attention and suspicion from onlookers.Yvette felt even more speechless. She looked at Zoey, asking in return, "Ms. Yandell, at what point did it look like I was bullying her? My husband came to pick me up, and she insisted on getting in the car too. We only told her to take a cab home. How is that bullying?"She explained everything in one sentence.But Zoey wanted to take advantage of the situation. After all, with people around and Jeana's unreasonable behavior, she wanted to help Jeana embarrass Yvette."But look at her tears! What's the harm in giving her a ride?"Yvette was exhausted that day. Since she was pregnant, her emotions were already unstable, and she easily felt sleepy.Suppressing her discomfort, she asked, "Do you want to repeat what you just said?"
