Chapter 1640


    Raeleigh looked over at Jepherson. "Why must you do this?"


    "What did I do?" Jepherson retorted, and Raeleigh asked, "Didn''t you tell Stuart to address me as


    madam?"

    "I did, but he already addressed you so himself in the car yesterday."


    Stumped, Raeleigh had forgotten about it.


    Jepherson nced at Raeleigh and said, "Do you want me to show you the dashcam?"


    Raeleigh did not answer but merely stood in the elevator, silent the entire ride.


    After exiting the elevator, Jepherson brought Raeleigh to his office and called his secretary after


    entering.


    "Bring some fruits, snacks, and the magazines you read some time ago over."


    The phone ended with Lucy''s face full of confusion. Hadn''t they forbade her from reading them in


    thepany anymore? She had already taken them home. Where was she going to find them right


    then?


    Although she was at a loss, Lucy Wagner was, after all, Jepherson''s secretary. She made a prompt


    decision to search through the secretary team and found a few rather informative magazines. Then


    she went downstairs to pick some fruits and snacks then sent them to his office.


    Hearing the doorbell, Raeleigh answered the door. Jepherson had been busy since he came in,


    looking like he had a lot to deal with.


    Seeing Raeleigh, Lucy smiled. "Here are the things Mr. Richards asked for."


    Lucy left after Raeleigh took the things from her. Raeleigh then closed the door behind her and put


    them on his desk.


    Just as she was about to walk away, Jepherson asked, "What''s inside?"


    Raeleigh opened it and told him one by one.


    "Wash an apple."


    It was amanding tone. Since Raeleigh was idling, she did as told. To avoid Jepherson from


    giving her more work, she washed the rest of the fruits.


    There was a beautiful crystal te in the office. Raeleigh came out with a te of fruit and gave one


    to Jepherson.


    Jepherson looked up at Raeleigh. "Cut it into pieces."


    Raeleigh cut it and brought it back to Jepherson, then took a toothpick.


    Jepherson paused for a moment and asked Raeleigh, "Are you always so obedient?"


    "It''s only because you have your hands full!"


    If he wasn''t, she wouldn''t serve him like he was a king.


    Jepherson continued to work and said, "Feed me."


    Raeleigh went around and fed Jepherson a piece of apple. Stumped, he stared at the apple


    Raeleigh fed him and opened his mouth, slowly eating it.


    "I want another one." Jepherson finished his work and checked his wristwatch for the time. All he


    had left was the meeting.


    Raeleigh asked, "Do you have something else to do?"


    "It''s time for the meeting; I''ll finish it when Ie back." Jepherson put an apple in his mouth and


    pressed the inte. "Get ready for the meeting."


    He took the te of sliced apples and gave her a piece while he wolfed down the rest as he walked


    to the door, putting the te down by the door before he left his office.


    Raeleigh followed Jepherson to the conference room downstairs.


    Stuart had already been waiting there. Seeing Jepherson and Raeleigh, Stuart pushed the


    conference room door open, and Jepherson strode to his seat.


    After entering, Raeleigh swept her gaze across the room. It was filled with people, and there was


    only a seat avable next to Jepherson.


    Everyone in the room was surprised to see Raeleigh. As there hadn''t been a significant change in


    the top management team, most people here knew Raeleigh.


    Barely any newbies could find themselves sitting amongst the top managers at such a young age.


    "Madam Raeleigh, your seat is next to Mr. Jepherson."


    Stuart was intentionally letting the whole world know something was up. Raeleigh really didn''t like


    this side of Jepherson, but there was nothing she could do about it.


    Raeleigh nced at Stuart before sitting next to Jepherson.


    Jepherson knocked on the table and reminded the floor, "If anyone wants to catch up, do it after the


    meeting. This isn''t a gathering, so let''s get down to business."


    The room fell silent immediately. Jepherson took a look at Raeleigh, opened the file in front of him,


    leaned back in his chair, and began to read it. The others also opened their files. Although


    Raeleigh''s return filled their minds, they immediately entered the zone.


    After looking through the papers, Jepherson handed the file to Raeleigh. Raeleigh looked at it; it


    was the sales for the quarter.


    There was a clear red line; its sales were almost the same as thest quarter.


    The sales weren''t very much, but they weren''t very little either.


    How should she put it? If it were any ordinarypany, Raeleigh would think they were losing


    money, but since this was the Richards Group, she didn''t think so.


    It was highly likely that Jepherson was focusing on refining the cars. They were all of the higher-


    ends, so thepany didn''t have to produce a lot in a year nor sell many of them.


    Yet, they could still make a good profit.


    Although they had lost some market, cars would depreciate with years. It wasn''t definite that


    releasing new ones would boost the sales of thepany.


    Raeleigh ced the file on herp after looking at it and then moved her gaze to the managers.


    Jepherson said, "We''ll be releasing new cars this quarter. Whatever project you''re working on, get


    them done ASAP, and get ready for a new assignment. I don''t want any department to dy this


    matter. I will raise your sry this month and hope you can cooperate with thepany to reach


    our target."


    Everyone had the same thing in mind. With Raeleigh''s return, thepany would give her all its


    resources. After all, she was the wife of the head of Richards Group and was favored by Jepherson.


    If they hadn''t known Raeleigh in the past, they might not understand why Jepherson remained


    single in the past three years. But since they did, they knew the reason very clearly.


    It was no wonder why the dormant Richards Group began to revive as soon as Raeleigh came


    back.


    Jepherson could give them a raise because of her. What was so hard to understand?


    It was apparent how dearly Jepherson thought of Raeleigh.


    Everyone reached a consensus on this matter, hoping that this time the sales would exceed the


    previous one.


    Sitting aside, Raeleigh was silent. If it was Jepherson''s n, it would be pointless even if she


    refuted it. This was who Jepherson was; her resistance would be useless in the face of his ns.


    The meeting ended slightly before eleven, and Jepherson told Raeleigh, getting up, "We''ll have


    lunch at twelve, then go to the ce you wanted in the afternoon. There''s still time; have Stuart


    show you around thepany. I didn''t get enough sleepst night; I''m going to take a nap."


    "It''s fine. I''m tired too!"


    Raeleigh deliberately ignored the part where he said he didn''t get enough sleep, lest she made


    things worse.
