This question put the man in an awkward position. He wiped the sweat off his forehead with the back of his hand.
"Assistant Shell, what are you talking about? This has always been the company's rule. What's more, you work closely with President Yardley, so this money must be very important. Our Finance Department can't risk the loss," the man explained.
"But, just now..." Kimberly was still in a dilemma when Vera had finished the procedure, "Here." Kimberly reached out and took the document, saying, "Thank you." "Thankingwon't make any difference, I still hate you!" Vera then added, "Although I also joined the company through the back door, you are way more annoying than me." Kimberly was speechless.
She spoke about the back door so frankly. Kimberly almost admired her straight-forward approach. She just smiled and replied, "Thank you both for your time. I'll take my leave now." After Kimberly left, Vera looked at her father with dissatisfaction.
"Dad, why did you give her so much money? What should we do if President Yardley blames us? Twenty thousand dollars is almost more than my salary after work for a long time," Vera complained.
Hearing what she said, the man glared at her and said in a harsh voice, "Don't be so impulsive next time. It was President Yardley's assistant, Assistant Sorrento, who gave the orders. Fortunately, you didn't say too much, and she was kind enough to not mind your words." "Humph, she wasn't always this kind! She has been fighting with people in the canteen and even threw food at the others. Does she think she's sbig shot? She's just a nobody without him," Vera retorted. "Don't get involved in this matter, and don't listen to other people. Do you think she is that type of person? How do you know what the company's people are like?" The man chided.
Vera curled her lips, "Anyway, I just think it's wrong for her to throw food at others! She attacked three women. Is that all fake news?" After that, Vera turned around and left.
After Kimberly had solved the problem, she returned to her seat, but couldn't help thinking of Vera. She said that Kimberly joined the company through the back door. That means, in everyone's mind, she had managed to join the company solely due to Maddox's help.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtForget it, there was no need for her to care about these things. She just needed to do her job well.
Tflew by and soon another day had passed. Sylvia got the news that Quill was returning to Hidalgo on that day, and she was very excited. She called Quill before he got on the plane. "What's the matter?" Quill's voice sounded as emotionless as usual.
Sylvia didn't care because she was in a very good mood at the moment. She would soon find out who was the father of Kimberly's baby.
"Quill, are you coming back to Hidalgo today?" Sylvia asked.
"Yes, I'll board in 15 minutes," Quill replied.
"Quill, have you solved it? Have you got the answer?" Sylvia asked again.
Quill narrowed his deep eyes slightly. Looking at the people bustling in the airport, he pursed his thin lips.
"Yes," he then answered.
"Really?" Sylvia smiled and praised him, "Thank you, Quill. I knew I could count on you! Can you..." "I'll show you the file once I return. I'll hang up first." After that, Quill hung up the phone. A smartly dressed female secretary stood beside him. When she saw him hanging up the phone, she reminded him, "President Hanover, the flight will arrive in North City in five hours. Assistant Shell of the Yardley family has already booked a restaurant. We can rush over there after we get off the flight." Quill nodded and straightened the tie of his suit. A faint dark circle surrounded the underside of his eyes. He had been very busy recently. When Juliette Shaprio, his secretary, noticed how tired he was, she offered, "President Hanover, do you want to go back to have a rest first? You've been overworking yourself these days, and you've already..." "No need," Quill refused simply.
Juliette didn't argue. She just handed over the file in her hand and said, "President Hanover, this is the information about Maddox of the Yardley Corporation." Quill took it and glanced through it. "He's an opponent." He commented.
Juliette took the file back and said, "Yes, since he joined the Yardley Corporation, they have been well-known throughout the North City. They have surpassed our Hanover Corporation. He has always been proud of himself, and no one dares to provoke the devil king of the Yardley Corporation. This is one of the rare times that they want to cooperate with us. By the way, President Hanover, this is the new assistan of the Yardley Corporation. I have done sresearch on her." Juliette handed over another file.
Quill glanced at the file, and there was a strange emotion in his empty eyes. He fixed his eyes on Kimberly's face in the photo.
"Why does this face... look a little familiar...?" Quill thought.
"President Hanover, is there a problem?" Juliette asked.
Quill frowned slightly, then he covered the woman's eyes with his rough fingers. Although the woman in the photo was smiling, her eyes were cold and clear like a boundless sea. There was no extra desire or emotion in them.
The aura from her was quiet.
These eyes... he had only seen them on one person's face before.
"Oh, by the way, President Hanover, according to the investigation, Assistant Shell and Miss Sylvia are classmates." Quill repeated, "Classmates?" "Yes." Quill stared at the photo for a long time. Juliette had been following Quill for a long time, but she had never seen him like this. She couldn't help but wonder aloud, "Did President Hanover fall in love with this woman?" Quill did not answer her and glanced at her coldly. Juliette looked away immediately and said, "I'm sorry, I've slipped my tongue." Quill put away the photo, folded it into a square and kept it his suit pocket. "Am I meeting her today?" He asked. "Yes," Juliette nodded.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmQuill then said, "Let's go." Five hours later, Quill's flight touched down in North City.
Kimberly knew which flight he would ve arrive on, and she cto the airport in advance. She always believed that cooperation was built on a sincere foundation. In the past, she would always pick up many clients from the airport as well as sending them off.
The airport was crowded. Kimberly stared at the various flights on the big screen and finally saw that Quill's flight had landed. She inquired Quill's assistant and learned that Quill would leave the airport through the VIP channel. After landing, the first thing Juliette did was switching on her phone. When she was about to contact Kimberly, her phone rang.
Juliette picked it up with a blank expression, and then a look of surprise slowly flashed across her face. She asked through the phone, "What did you say? You came... to pick us up?" Quill glanced at her from beside her. She coughed lightly, "President Hanover, Assistant Shell cto pick us up. She is outside." Initially, she thought that Quill would be unhappy. However, his face was blank as he replied unexpectedly, "She's quite sincere. Let's go." "Yes," Juliette hurried to follow after him.
This was the first tthat Quill had immediately recognized a woman in a crowd.
Quill did not even have this feeling when he first recognized Sylvia as his sister.
However, this time, his eagle eyes instantly saw Kimberly standing in the crowd the second he passed through the exit passage.
