Chapter 44


    Chapter 44


    Known for his cunning nature, Dn often took those bottom performers on business trips with him.


    After all, the winner took all in sales. The top performers got rewarded, while the trailing ones faced


    penalties or even got axed.


    When Dn went on a business trip, it was like he was holding the sales in his hand, and whoever


    went with him got to split half of those sales spots. He used this trick to coax a fair number of


    rookies who didn’t know the tricks of sales to travel with him.


    While at thepany, he could barely pass as a decent person. But once outside with just two or


    three subordinates, he quickly started pawing at them. As a seasoned pro at this, he always


    managed to escape without leaving any evidence. Many girls had either resigned in despair or


    endured in silence for this.


    Well, there was still someone like Isabel, who had gone on a business trip with him and ended up in


    his bed.


    Valerie knew that Dn would definitely be seeking revenge on her during this trip, with harassment


    or something worse. Even if she had precautions, there was a natural disparity in strength between


    men and women. She couldn’t afford to wait until something happened to regret it. Besides, she


    didn’t need his bit of sales anyway.


    So, she reminded him with a fake smile, “I’m off tomorrow and the day after. Mr. Hart, you should


    find someone else.”


    Being rejected, Dn instantly turned grim. “From what I know, youe from the countryside,


    unmarried, and the mostid–back in our department. Valerie, I never thought you would ever ck


    off!”


    “Oh, what a bummer, Mr. Hart…” If it were any other day, Valerie might have argued with him. But


    not today. She gave a slight smile, then raised her hand, revealing the diamond ring on her right


    ring finger.


    “You’re married?” Dn frowned.


    “Yes, just a few days ago. That’s why I’ve been so busy at home,” Valerie responded calmly. At the


    same time, she subtly warned Dn to get his dirty thoughts in check–she was now taken.


    It was evident Dn didn’t expect this. He was upset by the rejection and even more annoyed and


    ashamed now, seething with anger toward Valerie.


    Last time, Valerie’s letter ofint made Mr. Grant take notice. He had thought that Valerie


    either knew Mr. Grant personally or had some other powerful connections, so he had been quite


    polite to her. But no news hade out of the headquarters after so many days. He thought he had


    overestimated Valerie and the letter must have been just a coincidence.


    Now that it was confirmed that Valerie had no backing, Dn had nothing to worry about. With old


    and new scores piling up, he pondered, ‘So what if she’s getting married? She got Isabel fired, so


    she’ll just offer herself to me aspensation. If she refuses, she can just get lost!‘


    With this thought in mind, Dn mmed the table hard, directing his usation straight at Valerie.


    “Valerie, this deal is crucial for thepany. No one else can handle it but you and me. Besides,


    I’m your superior, so this is an order. If you don’t take my orders seriously, I don’t think you are


    suitble for Arcton Cars!”


    The office instantly tensed up as everyone was caught off guard.


    In order to force Valerie to give in, Dn yed the card of his superior status and invoked Arcton


    Cars as an excuse, implying that if Valerie didn’tply, she would have to leave.


    Valerie’s expression instantly turned cold.


    Katherine was even angrier. She couldn’t hold it in and was about to stand up to scold Dn on


    Valerie’s behalf, but Valerie stopped her.


    She couldn’t let Katherine take the heat for her. Besides, she was no longer nning to swallow her


    pride and endure this. She stood up, her face still bearing the same poised smile, yet the smile was


    somewhat frigid. “I have worked at Arcton Cars for three years. It’s a greatpany. Unfortunately,


    some staff aren’t exactly good eggs. Since that is the case, I do not intend to stay…”


    “Valerie!” Katherine was taken aback.


    Not only she but the other colleagues were also shocked. After all, everyone had witnessed what


    Valerie was capable of. Now that Valerie was being forced to leave, their future wouldn’t be easy


    either. Everyone immediately urged Valerie to reconsider.


    On the other hand, when Dn heard this, a smug smile crept onto his lips. “If she wants to leave,


    let her go. Anyone who stops her is going against


    me!”


    Since he couldn’t directly go against Valerie, getting her to leave was the next best solution. Of


    course, Valerie could also stay.


    “However, Valerie, let me give you some advice. It’s hard to find a job out there these days. If you


    change your mind and want to stay, it’s not impossible. As long as you apologize to me and follow


    my arrangements, I can forgive you…” Dn’s eyes narrowed, filled with wickedness, indicating he


    still harbored ulterior motives.

    Although Valerie always got on his nerves, there was no denying that she was way prettier and


    hotter than Isabel. She mighte from a backwater ce, but she always carried an inexplicable


    air of nobility that made Dn crave to conquer her.


    Dn had been harboring desires for her for a long time, and he was already scheming in his head.


    As long as he could take her to a strange ce, he naturally had ways to take her down.


    His dirty fantasies continued to run wild as he cast unbridled calctions toward Valerie. However,


    footsteps sounded outside the door at that moment. The receptionistdy rushed in, causing Dn


    to frown in displeasure. “What’s the matter?”


    “Mr. Hart, someone from the headquarters of Noria Group is here!” the receptionist stuttered.
