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<b>!</b><b>”</b>
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 <b>as </b>an excuse, implying that if Valerie didn’tply, she would have to leave.Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.
Valerie’s expression instantly turned cold.
Katherine was <b>even </b>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 <b>take </b>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 <b>same </b>poised smile, yet the smile <b>was </b>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 <b>case</b>, I do not intend to <b>stay</b>…”
<b>“</b>Valerie!” Katherine was taken aback.
Not only she but the other colleagues <b>were </b>also shocked. After all, everyone had witnessed what Valerie <b>was </b>capable of. <b>Now </b>that Valerie was being forced to <b>leave</b>, their future wouldn’t be <b>easy </b>either. Everyone immediately urged Valerie to reconsider.
On the other hand, when Dn heard this, a smug smile crept onto his lips. <b>“</b>If she wants to <b>leave</b>, let her go. Anyone who stops her <b>is </b>going against
me<b>!</b><b>”</b>
Since he couldn’t directly go against Valerie, getting her to <b>leave </b><b>was </b>the next best solution. Of course, Valerie could <b>also </b><b>stay</b>.
“However, Valerie, let me give you some advice. It’s hard to find <b>a </b>job out there these <b>days</b>. <b>If </b><b>you </b>change <b>your </b>mind and want to <b>stay</b><b>, </b>it’s not impossible. <b>As </b>long <b>as </b><b>you </b>apologize to me and follow <b>my </b>arrangements, <b>I </b>can <b>forgive </b>you…” Dn’s eyes narrowed, filled with wickedness, indicating he still harbored ulterior motives.

Chapter 44
Although Valerie always got on his nerves, there <b>was </b>no denying that she <b>was </b>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.
