Chapter 444 You Did Well


    "Liya, you have performed well ever since you joined thepany. The program you have designed is


    pretty good as well. Calvin took out a USB drive from his drawer and ced it on the table. He shed


    her a smile andplimented her. "


    "Thank you so much for thepliment, Calvin. It''s my honor to be able to work in Harvey Group. Liya


    was filled with delight upon receiving his praise. Jubnt, she showered him with ttery."


    "I didn''t expect you to work so hard for the sake of Harvey Group. It''s beyond my expectation. What


    about this? I will inform the finance department to increase your sry by 50% from today onwards, he


    announced. The smile warmed his eyes. He was being pretty generous. "


    "Really? Liya raised her head and eximed in delight. She looked at him with moist, shining, and


    ecstatic eyes. "


    "Of course, why would I lie to you? Calvin''s smile broadened into a grin and he said firmly, ""Didn''t I


    mention that you have done a great job? Thepany will definitely give you the reward you


    deserve."" "


    "Okay, thank you so much, Calvin. Liya was over the moon and she batted her eyshes at him. There


    was affection in her eyes. "


    "It was a dreame true! Calvin had treated her so coldly just a few days ago. However, he was


    being so good to her right now. Not only did he call for her himself, he also decided to give her a pay


    rise. The change in his attitude was so sudden that she was not ustomed to it. In fact, she found it


    hard to believe. "


    "Liya, how did youe to work at the Harvey Group? Calvin sat down at his desk and asked


    casually."


    "Liya was stunned for a moment before she smiled and said, ""Calvin, I saw that the Harvey Group was


    looking for a software engineer. Hence, I submitted my resume and Mr. White informed me toe


    over for the interview. On my first day here, I met Ms. Morris and she agreed to let me stay in the


    She was eloquent and clear about the details. Everything seemed logical.


    "Calvin nodded and sighed. ""What a shame. Liya, since you recognized me at first nce, why didn''t


    youe to find me right away and tell me that you wished to work at mypany?""  "


    "As he spoke, he looked at her with his charming eyes and gave her a meaningful look. It made Liya''s


    heart beat rapidly. "


    "Calvin, I... Liya did not expect that Calvin would say something like that and was at a loss for words for


    a moment. However, she responded quickly by lowering her head and her full lips pouted slightly. She


    said pitifully, ""Calvin, you have a high social status whereas I''m a nobody. I didn''t dare to approach


    you."""


    "For the first two times she encountered him, his attitude was cold and detached. Besides, he did not


    recognize her. Hence, she didn''t dare to even walk up to him. "


    "Oh, so that''s your first impression of thepany. Do you think we value a person''s social status over


    their abilities? Calvin furrowed his brows and sneered as he stared at her. ""If that''s the case, why did


    you approach me after that and revealed your identity? How are you going to exin this?"""


    This... I... Liya was caught off guard by his question that she could not utter a single word. She couldn''t


    possibly say that she was infatuated with him and wished to seduce him.


    Could it be that he had figured out her intentions?


    "The thought crossed her mind and she grew a little uneasy as she looked at him sheepishly. Upon


    noticing that he was looking at her calmly and did not seem to be suspicious of her, she calmed down


    and said sweetly, ""Calvin, I know that thepany values a person''s abilities above all. Hence, I did


    not approach you at first, as I wanted to prove my worth and make you proud."" "


    "Oh, that''s no wonder. Calvin burst outughing suddenly. ""Good, that''s great! Continue doing your


    best. Once thepany has survived the current crisis, I will give you a promotion. You know as well


    that I''m wealthy and powerful. A mere trifle such as what has happened to the car industry will not


    affect thepany at all. What do you think?""  "


    "Yes, you are right, Liya echoed his words and nodded in agreement. She heaved a sigh of relief. It


    looked like he did not notice that something was amiss. He was just curious."


    "Zoe was right. Calvin was bing increasingly interested in her. If that was the case, once she


    received the money from Calvin, she would then pay Zoe back. After all,pared to working for


    Zoe, she would rather stay at Harvey Group. She did not wish to be Zoe''s pawn for revenge. Liya


    understood her predicament well. She was not willing to be used by Zoe and sacrifice herself for her


    revenge. "


    "Okay, you may leave now. I''ll call you again if I need anything. Calvin shed her a smile and he was


    being pretty friendly. The smile warmed his eyes and it made Liya''s heart race with joy. "


    "Okay, Calvin, I''ll take my leave, Liya replied in a soft and sweet voice, beaming. Her slender figure


    then spun around as she slowly walked out of the office. "


    "As soon as Belle and Rosa set foot at the International Triumphal Court and waited in front of the VIP


    elevator, they saw Liyaing out of the VIP elevator. She was blushing and giggling sheepishly. "


    "Good afternoon, Ms. Morris. Upon seeing Belle, she could not hide the smugness on her face as she


    parted her lips and greeted her carefully. "


    Why did she use the VIP elevator?


    "Belle found it very suspicious. After all, it was the VIP elevator. At the moment, it was reserved only for


    her and Calvin. The other employees could only use the other elevators. Why was she here? There


    was only one usible exnation. She had juste back from Calvin''s office. "


    Belle recalled her behavior in front of Calvin when she was present a few days ago and this put her in a


    bad mood.


    "Belle, is this woman working in the Harvey Group as well? Rosa nced towards Liya''s direction as


    she walked away. Her curiosity was piqued. "


    "Yes, she''s an employee in thework department, Belle replied, apparently lost in thought. "


    "She is quite beautiful. Her eyes are captivating. She looks like those women who are experts at


    seducing men. Rosa pondered for a moment before she grinned. ""Belle, you must be careful. Don''t let


    Calvin fall for a woman like her.""  "


    "Rosa had hit a raw nerve. Fear gripped at her heart and she said right away, ""How dare he? If he


    dares to do something like this right under my eyes, I will not let the matter slide easily."" "


    She was deeply troubled as she spoke.


    "Well, anything''s possible. A man can''t reject a woman who flirts with him, let alone a woman who is


    attractive and knows how to please a man. Men are all the same. To put it lightly, you must be careful.


    Rosa replied dismissively, pouting."


    "Belle''s heart sank and she was feeling very dejected. Soon, they arrived at the 88th floor.  "


    "Rosa, you may stay here at my office for the next few days. I''m going abroad. Belle frowned,


    apparently lost in thought. "


    "As they spoke, someone appeared at the door. It was Calvin. He strode into the office. "


    "Rosa, you''re here? He heard Rosa''s voice from the office beside and walked over as he greeted her


    cordially. "


    "Rosa turned around and said, ""Calvin, I''m here to see Belle and help her."" "


    "Oh, thank you for your help then. As soon as Calvin entered the room, he caught a glimpse of Belle


    standing silently by the side. Her face was pale and she did not look at him affectionately, which


    seemed pretty unusual. In fact, it seemed that she was in a bad mood and there was a sullen


    expression on her face. Worried, Calvin was about to approach her when Sergio walked into the


    office.  "


    Calvin frowned when he saw him. A sh of irritation crossed his gaze.


    "Rosa, I have something to talk to you about. He entered the office and said to Rosa, ""Pleasee


    with me."""


    "Rosa''s expression darkened and she nced at Belle, who was also looking at her before she


    followed him out of the office. "


    "Rosa, I don''t wish for you to be involved in the Harvey Group''s matters. General Perry has already


    said the day before that you are going to return to the Capital City. Upon entering his office, Sergio


    addressed Rosa with a solemn expression. "


    "Rosa''s temper sparked when she heard that he had told her father regarding her arrival. How


    overbearing was he? Who did he think he was? She immediately raised her eyebrows as she red at


    him. ""Sergio, or should I say, Mr. Xanthe, you can''t control what I do. I will do as I wish. Besides, this is


    my personal affair. What does it have to do with you? How dare you tell my father about this. What a


    j*rk!"" "


    What Sergio did was enough to ruin her impression of him.


    "Rosa, the matter regarding Harvey Group is prettyplex. You are just an outsider and you don''t


    understand the predicament. You can''t be of much help. Getting involved in this matter will only ruin


    General Perry''s reputation. I''m advising you for your own sake and I really hope that you can leave as


    soon as possible. "


    Sergio did not care what she thought of him. His expression was solemn and his tone was stern. It


    ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .


    never crossed his mind that Rosa would intervene in this matter. This gave him a headache and he


    was extremely frsutrated.


    "Really? Rosa sneered. ""Thanks for your reminder. However, I''m a person who loves to meddle in


    other people''s affairs out of boredom. Besides, I have a close rtionship with those in the Harvey


    Group. I won''t just sit back and watch when they are in trouble.""  "


    "Upon finishing her sentence, Rosa raised her head and red at him as she snorted in disgust. She


    gave him a look of disdain, looking very indignant and unsatisfied. "


    "Sergio was seriously getting a headache. ""Rosa, what rtionship do you have with the Harvey


    Group? Don''t forget, you are no longer engaged to Martin. Can you imagine what people will say


    behind your back if you continue staying here? Or are you still madly in love with the ex-convict,


    Martin?"""


    "Sergio, how can you say something like that? Burning anger spread across her body when she heard


    what he said. Rage overcame her. She red at him and gave him a warning. ""Let me be frank with


    you. I may not be part of the Harvey Group but this is none of your business. We aren''t close or


    anything. What I do has nothing to do with you. Let me say this onest time. I''m going to intervene in


    the Harvey Group''s matters. Although your father has proposed an arranged marriage between both of


    our families, I haven''t given my consent. I already spoke to my dad that I will remain here at the Harvey


    Group while I keep an eye on you. He has agreed to let me stay here for a while. Let me tell you. If you


    fail to prove the Harvey Group''s innocence, I will not hesitate to reject the marriage proposal and I will


    definitely teach you a lesson."" "


    "Rosa was seething with anger as she drove her point across. Fuming mad, she snorted and left.


    Sergio was left alone in a daze. His lips grew thin with anger. "
