    Chapter 2077


    Feeling frustrated, Jaylene argued, "If you don''t sign, and we breach the contract, whose responsibility


    is that?"


    Ste responded, "Whoever took the order is responsible. After all these years, can''t we predict the


    shipping date urately?"


    Jaylene wanted to say more, but Ste waved her off and said, "Ms. Saun, if there''s nothing else,


    please leave. I''m tired and need to rest."


    Jaylene was so frustrated she could hardly breathe. She eventually left with the contract, her face dark


    with anger.


    Not long after Jaylene left, Darcie called Ste''s phone.


    However, she did not answer it. After the call ended, she dialed Wenham''s number.


    "Dad, how''s your trip going?" Ste asked.


    Wenham was excited, rambling on about the activities of the past two days. He ended by saying,


    "Ste, next time youe, I''ll take you diving to see the tropical fish."


    "But I don''t know how to dive," Ste said with augh.


    "I''ll teach you. It''s really simple," Wenham said. He paused before asking," How''s everything at Caline


    these past days? Is work going well?"


    "It''s great. On my first day, Darcie''s assistant gathered everyone in the lobby to introduce me to the


    Wenham was taken aback and asked, "You mean Aubrey had everyone wee you on your first


    day?"


    "Yes. Darcie didn''t even warn me in advance. It was quite awkward," said Ste.


    Wenham was silent for a while.


    Being business savvy, Ste did not need to spell it out for Wenham to understand the implications.


    Such tactics of overbearing hospitality weremon in the corporate world. Ste''s aim was to nt a


    seed of doubt in his mind.


    "That''s all for now, Dad. Enjoy yourself, and call me when you''reing back so I can pick you up,"


    said Ste.


    Wenham snapped back to reality and responded, "Alright. Tell me if you need anything. Don''t hesitate


    to act."


    Ste acknowledged and ended the call.


    The call seemed to have an effect as half an hourter, Jaylene posted a cryptic message on


    Facebook: [Too many cooks spoil the broth.]


    Though she quickly deleted the post, Ste, who had been following her blog with a burner ount,


    saw it immediately.


    Ste smirked coldly and switched to Keegan''s ount to send Jaylene another bouquet of flowers.


    Just before leaving work, Jaylene posted a picture of the flowers and a photo of herself working with


    the caption: [Just keep pushing forward, and all the good things wille in time.]


    At 5:30 p.m. sharp, Ste made a point to greet her floor''s employees before leaving work. She said,


    "From now on after everyone finishes their work, leave on time. Let''s be efficient during work hours so


    we don’t need to work overtime unnecessarily."


    Winning over people''s hearts could be done in many ways. Giving gifts was the least of Ste''s

    favorites, as it cost money. She preferred to appeal to human nature.


    After all, no one liked working overtime.


    The news of the entire 16th floor leaving at 5:30 p.m. soon reached the 15th floor. Everyone looked at


    each other before turning their eyes to Jaylene''s office.


    Jaylene could be seen with her head down through the transparent ss partition, with the blinds left


    open. She was reading seriously with a pen in hand, surrounded by a pile of folders, seemingly


    determined not to leave until she had gone through them all.
