When Adele returned to the bedroom, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. The words that Damon had said shed through her mind.


    Was it really because of his grandmother, or was there another reason for him to let her stay by his side?


    After thinking for a long time, she still couldn’t figure it out, nor could she guess what Damon meant. She fell asleep.


    The next morning, when Adele woke up, it was alreadyte, and Ms. Henderson insisted that she eat breakfast before she was willing to let her go.


    Sure enough, she waste.


    Adele rushed to the department. Just as she clocked in, she heard her colleagues in the department call her, “Ms. Wes, Ms. Blunt is looking for you. Go to the office quickly.”


    When Adele heard this, she could not rush back to her office to put her things. She casually put her bag outside and ran directly to the supervisor’s office.


    She knocked on the door, pushed the door open, and entered. She saw that other than Ms. Blunt, Grace was also in the office.


    “I’m sorry, I’mte.” Adele smiled apologetically at them.


    “It’s fine. Have a seat,” Ms. Blunt said gently.


    Seeing that they had all sat down, Ms. Blunt did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point, “I called you here because there is a mission.”


    “Today, the vice president of thepany, Frank Williams, returned to thepany. He has been managing a branchpany under the Yusuf Group. For the time being, our Administrative Department will send an assistant to coordinate the work and cooperate with the handover.”


    Ms. Blunt paused and nced at Adele and Grace in front of her. “To put it bluntly, it’s just an errand assistant job. The main thing is to get the vice president to familiarize himself with thepany and do some misceneous things.”


    Hearing her words, Adele finally understood. It turned out that the vice president had returned to thepany. She and Grace were responsible for some trivial matters in the vice president’s work, and that was all.


    “I called the two of you here because I saw how careful and patient you have been in your work. But this time, there is no need to send both of you. So who wants the task?”


    Adele hesitated for a moment and did not speak.


    She knew very well that Grace would definitely be ahead of her in something like this. She did not intend topete with her for anything.


    “Cough! Cough!”


    Grace coughed and said, “Supervisor, I think we should leave this matter to Adele. She is a neer and needs this opportunity to temper herself.”


    She had not expected Grace to say this. Usually, she was so mean to her. How could she give this opportunity to her so easily this time?


    “Adele, what do you think?” Ms. Blunt suddenly turned to look at her.


    Adele paused and nced at Grace beside her. “Up to you guys.”


    “Alright, you can go report to Vice President Williamster and familiarize yourself with each other.” Ms. Blunt nodded slightly.


    “Alright.”


    After Ms. Blunt gave the order, Adele and Grace walked out of the manager’s office one after another.


    After taking a few steps, Adele looked at Grace who was not far away, and could not help but call out, “Grace.”


    Grace turned back and looked at her with raised eyebrows. “What’s the matter?”


    “Why didn’t you go for it?”


    Normally, Grace would fight for good things, but today, she had been generous enough to give this task to her. She really could not understand her intentions.


    When Grace heard this, a cold light shed in her eyes. Then, she covered up her cough and said, “I caught a cold. I’m not feeling well. So what if I don’t want to go?”


    After saying this, she strode away.


    Looking at her back, Adele secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It turned out that she was sick and didn’t want to go.


    With this thought, the doubts in her heart slowly dissipated.


    After returning to the office and resting for a while, Adele nned to go to the vice president’s office.


    For the next week, she had to work with Vice President Williams, so she naturally had to pay a visit in advance.


    The vice president’s office was not far away from the conference room. When Adele arrived, there were a few employees carrying a sandalwood tea tray inside.


    Although Adele did not understand the Way of Tea, when she saw such a delicate tea tray and all kinds of tea sets, she knew that these were expensive.


    She was stunned for two seconds. When she came back to her senses, she suddenly thought of her purpose ining here.


    She walked to the office door and saw a few people arranging things. She did not see Vice President Williams.


    “Excuse me, where is Vice President Williams?” she asked the people who were arranging the tables and chairs.


    Before they could answer, a loud voice came from behind her, “Are you looking for me?”


    Adele was stunned. She subconsciously turned around and saw the middle-aged man standing behind her. She quickly bowed and said, “Hello, Vice President Williams.”


    The man was over half a hundred years old. He had a medium build. There were some silver threads mixed in his temples. His eyebrows were very thick, but his pair of inverted triangr eyes carried an indescribable coldness and ruthlessness.


    Frank Williams looked at Adele up and down. There was a bit of hesitation and understanding in his eyes. In an instant, his eyes returned to normal. “Are you the assistant sent by the Administrative Department?”


    “Yes, I am,” Adele said softly.


    He seemed to find it a little funny. His lips curled up, and a bit of ridicule appeared in his eyes. He swept his gaze over the badge on her chest and asked coldly, “Adele, tell me, what is so special about you that you were sent to be my assistant?”


    Adele was stunned. She did not expect him to ask such a question. She lowered her head slightly, but she could still feel the sharp gaze above her head.


    “Don’t worry, Vice President Williams. I have worked in the Administrative Department for two years. I have a lot of work experience and am very familiar with every part of my work. In the next week, I will definitely cooperate actively…”


    “Alright.” Before Adele could finish speaking, she was interrupted.


    “Who doesn’t know how to say such official words? With your qualifications, you are still far from being my assistant. ” Frank snorted.


    Hearing this, Adele clenched her fists tightly, and ayer of cold sweat appeared on her back.


    Unexpectedly, this Vice President Williams was actually so difficult to deal with. She came to be his temporary assistant. ording to Ms. Blunt’s arrangements, she was only to bring Vice President Williams to familiarize himself with thepany’s business. She did not expect that she would bepletely denied by him when she came.


    Taking a deep breath, Adele gathered up her courage and looked up at him. “I don’t know what requirements you have for your assistant. If I amcking in these, I will definitely correct it and improve myself. I won’t be a burden for you these few days.”


    As soon as these words came out, a cold light shed in Frank’s eyes. Then, he curled the corners of his lips and said coldly, “As my assistant, you must be open-minded. I don’t want that kind of delicate little girl who is shy and doesn’t even want to drink with people. If you are that kind of girl, get out of here as soon as possible.”


    These few words made Adele’s cheeks burn as if she had been pped in the face.


    If he said this, it meant that she would definitely have to drink with people for the next week. If she retreated now, not only would she admit that she was not capable enough, but she would also have no way to exin it to Ms. Blunt.


    Just as she was silent, Frank stepped forward and stared at her with a gloomy gaze. “Are you afraid?” he asked.


    After pausing for half a second, he continued, “If you are afraid, go back and tell your supervisor that you are notpetent enough. Let her rece you!”


    Adele clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. She took a deep breath and looked into his eyes. She forced out a smile. “I’m not afraid, Vice President Williams.”Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
