Evan pulled out a chair for her.
She sat down.
“Don’t be nervous, everyone, and don’t be too polite to me. I’m not here to officially work in thepany. In fact, I know nothing about thepany’s affairs. I’m just here to learn. There may be many things to ask for your help in the future, so I hope you all take good care of me.” Freya’s voice was neither high nor low, neither humble nor haughty, just right, indicating the purpose of this meeting.
Everyone had already heard from Evan.
“Madam, you’re too kind.”
After all, she was the boss’s wife, and everyone dared not offend her.
They were respectful.
And she wasn’t aggressive in her speech.
She was sincere and calm.
They couldn’t find fault with her.
Freya smiled, “Elijah said you are the backbone of thepany, and that I can learn a lot from you. But my main reason for resigning is to take care of my family. It’s only when I have free time that I think about learning about thepany’s affairs. One is to pass the time, and the other is to understand his work nature. He’s so busy, I don’t even know if he’s really busy or just pretending.”
“There’s a lot going on in thepany, Mr. Silverton, and there’s also the need to handle things remotely at headquarters. This time Mr. Silverton went over because apany they acquired before had an issue. Although the branches have responsible people, Mr. Silverton still needs to set the overall direction.”
Freya’s hand under the table gripped her knee.
She had never understood Elijah’s work nature.
She just knew he was quite busy.
At this moment, her heart was filled with guilt.
She should have resigned earlier and stayed at home, so that he would have no worries.
No matter how much unrest there was inside, she couldn’t show any hints on her face.
She joked, “You guys haven’t covered up anything for him, right?”
“Madam, rest assured, Mr. Silverton is indeed very busy. He has no time for anything else.”
Freya pointed at them with a smile, “Do you really know what he’s doing? Even if he’s seeing other women outside, I wouldn’t know, can you?”
“This…”
“Madam…”
“Alright, everyone, don’t be nervous, I was just joking.”
She deliberately said so.
The purpose was to make everyone think that she had other intentions foring to thepany.
The other unspoken purpose was to prevent Elijah from cheating!
“I called everyone here today mainly to exin that I want to learn about thepany’s affairs, and to officially greet everyone.” Freya stood up.
“Let’s leave it here for today. Everyone can go.”
She walked out of the meeting room.
Everyone followed suit.Original from N?velDrama.Org.
Low voices discussing, “So, Madam came to thepany to monitor Mr. Silverton.”
“Mr. Silverton shouldn’t be seeing anyone else, right? After all, he’s so busy.”
“Ah, you can never be sure. Haven’t you heard what Madam said? She doesn’t even know, so do we really understand?”
“True, Madam and Mr. Silverton are the ones sharing a bed, she must understand him better than us!”
“Madam’s intentions are not about wine, monitoring Mr. Silverton is the real deal.”
“You can’t me Madam foring up with this n, after all, Mr. Silverton is in his prime and has so much money. How many women wouldn’t want to lure him in?”
“Yeah, men are all unfaithful, right?”
“Are you saying you’re unfaithful too?”
The person snorted, “Haven’t you had thoughts before? Even if you haven’t betrayed your wife.”
Between a couple, over time, the passion fades.
asionally, there may be other thoughts.
It alles down to whether you can resist them.
The difference between doing and not doing.
Some people have thoughts but never act on them.
Some people have thoughts and act on them.
That’s the difference.
In the underground parking lot, Freya got into the car.
She finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She had been on edge in thepany.
She asked Evan, “Did I perform well?”
