chapter 31 All know

In this situation, if you were a newbie in the workplace, 99% of the time you would feel uneasy. Why did the leader call me here and ignore me? Did I do something wrong? Especially, facing the number one figure in the group, can you not panic? William didn't. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he relaxed even more. With his hands behind his back, he looked around quietly. The location of this office was pretty good. The walls were all floor-to-ceiling glass. The sunlight was just enough to spread over most of the room. And it would not shine directly into Zoey's office. The decorations were not bad either. It was not luxurious, but it had a modern atmosphere. On the wall was a picture of spring trees and autumn frost by Bohu Tang. William guessed that it was probably not real. Nordic simple-style sofa and coffee table. The desk was most likely made of mahogany. William's eyes turned to Zoey. This CEO, who looked 70-80% similar to an actress surnamed Candice, was really pleasing to the eye if her expression wasn't too cold. She was typing on the keyboard and recording something. Occasionally she picked up her cell phone and typed a few words. The landline phone rang, and Zoey picked it up, tilting her head between her shoulder and ear, typing notes with both hands. "Hmm, it's not done yet? That land has been idle for almost five years. If the gas station can't be moved away and the development rights are taken back, our group will lose 27940000 dollars in vain. Do you understand?" "I don't care, I'll give you three more days!" After saying that, Zoey firmly clicked the receiver. She breathed heavily. She stood up suddenly and pushed everything on the table to the floor. William was slightly startled. This was something that can't be overcome. He bent down and quietly picked up the scattered items and put them back together. He placed it gently on her desk, stood back, and sat down, acting like nothing happened. Now that it had been decided to develop within the Faithview Group, it was necessary to gain Zoey's trust as soon as possible. All human suffering stems from anger at one's own incompetence. As a president, there were things that were beyond your control. How could you not get angry? "Thank you!" Zoey said firmly. "You're welcome," William replied without any nutrition. The short-haired woman who was playing with her mobile phone raised her head and glanced at him. "There is water and snacks. You can help yourself," Zoey confessed and returned to work. William was once again left alone. He sighed secretly and continued walking. The bookshelves were full of tomes. Marx's Das Kapital was lined up in a row. Twenty-five histories, all in one row. There was also a row of Seven Taoist Books in a Cabinet. He didn't know who chose the books for her, but they were completely out of tune with each other. Since Zoey let him do what he wanted, William was not polite. He poured himself a glass of water, then picked up two bags of beef cubes from the corner filled with snacks and munched on them. Time passed by minute by minute. An hour and a half has passed since William entered the office. Zoey was still busy. She made a few phone calls in the middle, all of which were orders of two to three million. The largest sum was close to 10 million. Zoey bargained calmly and finally made the decision. She didn't really stop until after eleven o'clock at noon. The short-haired woman put down her phone, walked behind Zoey, and pinched her shoulders skillfully. While pinching, she asked, "The matter of that piece of land still can't be solved?" Zoey closed her eyes and said with a tired face, "The oily boss is playing hide and seek, but I can never see him. The stationmaster of the gas station is a dead mouse who feels no cold." "Don't worry, let's go eat first!" Said the short-haired woman. "Well, let's go!" Zoey stood up, patted his face, fixed her hair in the mirror, and walked out in high spirits. When she passed William, she stopped and said, "I didn't pay attention to you this morning. Come have a meal with me!" Without waiting for William to answer, Zoey walked out first. "You're lucky. Zoey never sits at the same table as a man in the cafeteria." The capable woman with short hair smiled and said, "Speak less and listen more. Let's go!" What did the thirty-three-story headquarters building contain? William finally knew. In addition to the office area, the canteen alone covers an entire floor. There were two thousand five hundred people. Even if only half of them stayed in the company for dinner, the scene would be huge. However, there was a small canteen for group executives. It could accommodate up to one hundred people. William followed closely behind Zoey. The employees they met along the way were all respectful to Zoey. Zoey always responded with a smile. She looked dashing, and nothing could trouble her. But the scene in the office just now was still fresh in William's memory. It was obvious that there was trouble over that land. William was very considerate and busy. As a staff member of the president's office, serving the president was a matter of course. In the past, William would never bend down. But people had to bow their heads under the eaves. Besides, William still had a thought that kept rolling in his mind. He needed to be validated. Managers from various departments were surprised to find that Mrs. Gadsby was sitting at the same table as the new member of the President's Office. This was a scene that had never happened before. As a couple, Zoey had never even sat at the same table as Jayden for dinner. Everyone looked at William and speculated on this guy's true identity. William sighed secretly. No need to guess. If this wasn't Zoey's intention, then what the hell? As a veteran in the workplace, William, who always had more solutions than difficulties, was becoming more determined now. Zoey would definitely have special arrangements for him. On the table, there were six dishes and one soup, all colorful and fragrant. William was not polite and stuffed it into his mouth. Zoey was eating the food in small bites, seeming to be thinking about something. "William!" Zoey suddenly spoke. William was already prepared and put down his spoon and fork. "Here!" "Do you have any grudge against Jayden?" Zoey's first question went straight to the point. William's nerves suddenly became tense. "No!" William said firmly. "You lied!" Zoey said calmly. William almost stopped sitting. What did this woman really know? Or was she defrauding him? Jayden tore his family into pieces, and he wanted to strangle Jayden to death. But facing Jayden's legal wife and the top leader of the company, he could only lie. "I didn't!" William insisted. Even if the tone sounded extremely harsh. Zoey looked at William quietly. William looked at her calmly. "I know," Zoey said suddenly. After these words, she did not continue chatting but ate her rice and vegetables. The way she ate was majestic and not ladylike at all. William breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his head to eat. William found this kind of conversation quite depressing. "On the day of your interview, Jayden was very strange." Zoey took a sip of soup and continued, "Although he is a bastard, he rarely directly criticizes people! Especially since you are just an applicant." "Even if you are an ex-convict, there is no need for him to say that, let alone a reason." Zoey held her chin, her beautiful eyes kept circling William's face. "Then what is Mrs. Gadsby's conclusion?" William looked indifferent. The contract had not been signed yet, so he was not considered a member of Faithview Group. He could advance to attack and retreat to defend. "He must have slept with your wife?" Zoey's next words were shocking.
