Chapter 126


    Time passed peacefully. The first thing Kimberly did when she arrived at thepany the next day


    was to apply for reimbursement at the Finance Department.


    At first, the people in the Finance Department did not care about her at all. They even looked


    impatient when they saw her.


    "Flow can you apply for it without a bill? Besides, the process requires a lot of time."


    Kimberly was stunned, asking, "I thought I didn''t need the bill?"


    Thedy at the Finance Department rolled her eyes and criticized, "Who told you that you don''t


    need it? You''re not new around here, don''t you know the rules? Or do you think that you can be


    unscrupulous because you have a backup n?"


    Flearing this, Kimberly''s face turned a little pale and she bit her lower lip.


    Maddox had clearly told her that she could apply it without the bill, but now they were telling her


    another story. What was going on? Was the Finance Department just ying with her, or did


    Maddox lie to her?


    Thinking of this, Kimberly thought for a while and asked again, "Well, are you sure? Can''t I apply in


    advance?"


    Thedy smiled indifferently and looked at her like she was an idiot, "It doesn''t matter if you ask me


    ten times. No means no!"


    Kimberly could only return to her desk in dejection. After thinking for a long time, she went to find


    Maddox.


    After hearing her story, Maddox frowned.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.


    Oh no.


    He wanted to ask Sam to inform the Finance Department in advance, but he had forgotten about it,


    causing her to get rejected.


    Kimberly then asked dejectedly, "Is it... within thepany rules that I''m not allowed to apply in


    advance? If not, I..."


    "You''re allowed to as long as I say so. Do you believe in me or her?" Maddox responded.


    Kimberly replied, "...You."


    She had answered that subconsciously. Maddox smiled slightly and said, "Go and try again."


    "Ah? I have to go there again?" Kimberly crossed her fingers together. She couldn''t imagine going


    back down there. She was so tantly being driven away just now and embarrassed herself. She


    couldn''t do it.


    "Go," Maddox ordered firmly.


    "... Alright," she replied hesitantly.


    After all, she really needed the money. The only thing she could do was go back to the elevator and


    head back to the fifth floor.


    Maddox took out his mobile phone and quickly called Sam, saying, "Tell the Finance Department to


    let Assistant Shell apply for an advanced reimbursement."


    Although Sam didn''t understand what was going on, it was the first time Maddox had mentioned


    such a special case. However, he wasn''t surprised. It was for Assistant Shell, after all. And he had


    seen what Maddox had done for her these days.


    "I see. I''ll go and inform them right away," Sam replied.

    Kimberly hesitated outside the Finance Department for a long time. Should she just go back to


    Maddox and tell him thedy at the Finance Department rejected her again? Maddox stayed in his


    office the whole day. He might not know about all these small things.


    After thinking about it, just when Kimberly decided to go back, a bald middle-aged man came out of


    the Finance Department. As soon as he saw her, he called her immediately, "Assistant Shell."


    Hearing this, Kimberly stopped and looked at him in confusion, "You called me?"


    The middle- aged man smiled and said, "You are Assistant Shell, right? Why are you standing at the


    door? Come in quickly."


    Kimberly was confused. However, he was so enthusiastic, so she followed him in.


    "I heard from Vera that you came to apply for reimbursement just now, am I right?" He asked.


    Kimberly nodded awkwardly, "But your people said that I need the bills for the procedure. I..." "No,


    no, that''s her mistake!" The middle-aged man waved his hand quickly and said, "There''s no such


    thing. Assistant Shell, let me see how much you need to apply for? I''ll give you a report


    immediately."


    Kimberly paused for a moment and asked, "Is it really possible?"


    She looked inside and saw thedy named Vera standing there. She was staring at her furiously.


    He replied, "Of course, it is possible. Why not? Come on in."


    The middle- aged man then called at Vera ferociously, "Hurry up and type out Assistant Shell''s


    report. Why are you still standing there? Do you still want to keep your job?"


    Vera turned around and went to get the application forms angrily. She handed it to Kimberly and


    said, "Fill this out. Just write down the amount that you want."


    "Thank you," Kimberly reached out her hands and took it politely. It took her five minutes to fill out


    the form.


    Vera stared at her. Seeing Kimberly writing so seriously, she muttered under her breath angrily,


    "She''s just a girl who used connections to get here. Why give her preferential treatment?"


    Kimberly didn''t hear her clearly and looked up at her. Her eyes were so innocent. Vera only nced


    at them and felt guilty for what she said. She continued angrily, "What? Am I wrong about you?"


    Kimberly did not speak. She just handed over the forms and asked, "I''ll apply for five thousand


    dors first, is that okay?" "That''s a lot. Why don''t you just rob it?" Vera replied in fury.


    The middle-aged man smacked the back of Vera''s head, the smile on his face slowly fading. He


    scolded, "How can you speak like this? You really don''t want your job anymore, do you? Why don''t


    you pack up your things and go home now?"


    Vera snorted and looked at the middle-aged man, her hand over her head. Kimberly noticed that


    even though the middle-aged man looked at Vera fiercely, there was a shred of helplessness and a


    hint of affection in his eyes. They looked like... father and daughter.


    "Assistant Shell, is five thousand dors too little? After all, you are President Yardley''s assistant.


    Five thousand dors may not be enough. How about... I give you another twenty thousand


    dors?"


    Hearing this, Kimberly''s expression shifted and she gaped, rejecting, "Twenty, twenty thousand


    dors? I don''t think I''ll need so much."


    "Dad, are you crazy?"


    Sure enough, Vera screamed. "This is thepany''s Finance Department. If you give her twenty


    thousand dors, what should we do if President Yardley mes us?"


    "Who''s your Dad? Get out of here, you little br*t," the middle-aged man waved his hand and


    motioned her away. Then he smiled and said to Kimberly, "I will raise your reimbursement to twenty


    thousand dors. Vera, hurry up and settle this. Don''t let Assistant Shell wait for too long."


    Kimberly stood and waited for them to deal with it. She was still thinking why was their attitude so


    different the second time around. Was Vera just picking on her earlier? While she was thinking


    about it, she heard the man apologize to her, I''m really sorry. Vera has a bad temper, but she is not


    being mean to you. Assistant Shell, can you forgive her? She''s still young."


    "You''re too polite. It''s very kind of you to let me apply for this in advance," Kimberly smiled slightly


    as she spoke.


    She could see that the middle-aged man was very frightened when facing her like he was afraid of


    offending her. It seemed like someone had put some pressure on him. Even when he was speaking


    to her, his forehead was drenched in sweat.


    Upon hearing her, he visibly heaved a sigh of relief.


    Kimberly couldn''t help asking, "Vera said that the application needed time to be processed, but now


    it suddenly doesn''t need to. Did someone give you a call?"
