Chapter 1227 A Decent Job
To put it simply, for regr employees who still had aspirations to climb the corporatedder, this was a
once-in-a- lifetime opportunity. However, for someone at a managerial level like her, it was rather
disappointing.
N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.
She already had an annual sry of several hundred thousand dors. Amission of 1 million was
tempting, but it wasn’t a game-changer for her. Even if she seeded, could she expect thepany
to promote her to the position of general manager? Moreover, as a woman, she preferred stability, so
she wanted to delegate this task to someone else.
However, she couldn’t think of anyone capable of handling this responsibility. If she simply handed it off
to someone and they failed, as the marketing manager, she would still have to take responsibility for it.
What a dilemma!
The next morning, she walked out of her neighborhood onto the street. Usually, she drove to work by
herself, but because she didn’t sleep well the previous night and had difficulty concentrating, she
decided to take a taxi for safety reasons.
However, finding a taxi proved to be challenging, and someone hailed one before her.
Realizing that she was about to bete for work, and considering that the general manager had
mentioned discussing the big project with her as soon as she arrived, she couldn’t help but feel
anxious.
Just then, upon closer inspection, she was surprised to see that the person who took her taxi was none
other than Shane!
Shane’s gaze traveled up from her ck stockings to her ample bosom. After swallowing hard, he
recognized Lauren. “Uh, Ms. Pennington, what a coincidence! Do you need a taxi too?”
“Yeah, what a coincidence.” Lauren actually wanted to show her annoyance, but since he was a
rtive of the general manager, she decided to let it go. The general manager had made it clear that
this guy was not his rtive and had almost fired him, but that was just for show. Besides, he had
personally invited him backter, hadn’t he? All she could say was that the act was not convincing at
all.
“Well then, Ms. Pennington, you can take it. I’ll ride a shared bike to work!” Shane was very
understanding. Of course. If the woman was not the stunning Lauren but someone unpleasant, he
might not be so amodating.
“Hub? On, thank you!” Lauren dly epted his offer. Before getting into the taxi, she said, “I don’t
like owing favors if it wasn’t for an emergency. I wouldn’t have taken this taxi Don’t worry! I will
definitely repay you for this!”
Haha! MAs Pennington, there’s no need to be formal with me. We’re colleagues, so it’s not a big deal!”
Although Shane wasnt particrly generous. Lauren had always be kind to him, so he didn’t take it to
heart
After Lauren left herred a shared bike and set off Seriously i thought Ms. Pennington would vite me to
share the tex with hat but she d
hat as he was about to repon his office, he deserved a phone call it was actually from Santiago “Shane,
why did you spend so much money or anotol for the yesterday? Ag you loved in some shady
business?”
“Uh, Ms. Pennington, what a coincidence! Do you need a taxi too?”
“Yeah, what a coincidence.” Lauren actually wanted to show her annoyance, but since he was a
rtive of the general manager, she decided to let it go. The general manager had made it clear that
this guy was not his rt and had almost fired him, but that was just for show. Besides, he had
personally invited him backter, hadn’t he All she could say was that the act was not convincing at all.
“Well then, Ms. Pennington, you can take it. I’ll ride a shared bike to work!” Shane was very
understanding. Of course, if the woman was not the stunning Lauren but someone unpleasant, he
might not be so amodating.
“Huh? Oh, thank you!” Lauren dly epted his offer. Before getting into the taxi, she said, “I don’t
like owing favors. If it wasn’t for an emergency, I wouldn’t have taken this taxi. Don’t worry! I will
definitely repay you for this!”
“Haha! Ms. Pennington, there’s no need to be formal with me. We’re colleagues, so it’s not a big deal!”
Although Shane wasn’t particrly generous, Lauren had always been kind to him, so he didn’t take it
to heart.
After Lauren left, he rented a shared bike and set off. Seriously, I thought Ms. Pennington would invite
me to share the taxi with her, but she didn’t.
Just as he was about to reach his office, he received a phone call. It was actually from Santiago.
“Shane, why did you spend so much money on alcohol for me yesterday? Are you involved in some
shady business?”
D*mn it! Shane really wanted to curse. He would love to be involved in some shady business and have
both money and women, but he needed the looks and the physique for that. On second thought,
however, he felt much better; in the whole world, only Santiago truly appreciated him.
“Master, don’t worry. I’ve found a respectable job. I just got paid yesterday, and I’ll be earning even
more next month! Haha…” Shaneughed smugly.
Santiago became very concerned. “You’re illiterate, and you look unintelligent. What kind of
respectable job can you find? Are you engaging in something illegal?”
D*mn it! Shane, who had just believed that Santiago was the only person in the world who treated him
well, instantly became furious. “Master, I am currently employed in the marketing department of arge
“I still find it hard to believe. How did you manage to achieve that?” Santiago was very rational. Shane
had no diploma or connections, and he wasn’t attractive. How could he havended a job in the
marketing department of a bigpany? It didn’t seem logical at all.
“Master, if you continue speaking like this, I will be angry! I obtained this position solely based on
my own abilities!” Shane was already angry.
“Alright, alright.” Santiago didn’t argue with him. He simply reminded him, saying, “Shane, remember
the principles of our sect! For over 100 years, we have been prohibited from owing favors to others. If
someone helped you secure this job, you must repay their kindness!”
“Yeah, I understand. Goodbye!”
