Chapter 57: Not even close to my standards.
Wednesday.
“The information is ready to go.
Allyce neatly placed the stack of information in her hand and carefully placed it into the file bag as she turned her head to ask Lucila.
Lucila looked at her: “All set”.
“Well then, let’s get ready to leave.”
Allyce grabbed her coat and stepped forward.
As he walked down the corridor, he remembered that he had almost forgotten something very important.
“Hold on, I’m going to make a phone call”.
With that she turned to Lucila and turned to walk to the side to call Senona.
As soon as he answered the call, Allyce got straight to the point: “I’m going to the L. K. Group to talk about the contract, come or go”.
After saying this, Allyce hangs up the phone.
He reached over and grabbed Lucila: “Let’s go”.
Allyce gave Lucila a lift in her car and, just as she was leaving the car park, she saw Senona’s car already parked there.
“What is she doing here?” Lucila also saw Senona and turned to Allyce.
“He’s coming with us to L. K. to talk about the contract.” Allyce smiled meaningfully.
“How thick is her skin, she has the nerve to approach you when Mr. Betances has expressly asked you to… she’s a bit of a bitch. …”
…
Allyce’s car was a Buick with low displacement.
He had bought it for $100, 000 when he returned to China, with money he had earned from his part-time job and saved from his living expenses.
The car was still very new.
Only his Buick looked bad parked next to Senona’s Audi.
Senona looks out of the window and sees her car with a sarcastic smirk in her eyes.
As there were people outside, he had to put on a demure and friendly face as he smiled at Allyce and said: “Come and sit in my car, it’s too much trouble for three people to drive two cars.
Before Allyce could say anything, Lucila couldn’t help but say: “You are too kind, Director Delahoz, I don’t usually find it too much trouble to carpool with Delahoz.
The implication was that Senona was the one in trouble.
Senona stiffened for a moment, how dare a lower-ranking employee mock her.
His expression did not change: “Allyce, you are a very interesting assistant”.
“That’s right, the president of L. K also finds my assistant interesting, I wonder if he also finds you interesting.”
Allyce finished and went ahead of her.
Senona gritted her teeth in secret, what was the arrogance of a woman with a tarnished reputation, a minor employee she could take care of with one finger.
The president of L. K. had not met her; if he had, he would have known that she was better suited to negotiate this contract than Allyce.
…
When they arrived at the L. K. Group, Allyce and Lucila entered.
The receptionist seemed to have remembered her, and as soon as she saw her she smiled and said, “Miss Delahoz”.
“Hello.” Allyce responded politely and then left to find Severo.
Allyce and Lucila were about to enter the lift when Senona followed them from behind.
“Hello, I am here with them to discuss the contract, this is Senona, the project manager of the Delahoz Group”.
Senona, in the end, took care to save face and identified herself first to the receptionist.
The receptionist simply said politely: “Hello, Mrs Delahoz, what can I do for you?
Senona’s face remained the same: “I am here to discuss a contract”.
“Excuse me, I have to call the secretariat to check, what is your appointment? What time is it?”
The receptionist picked up the receiver and looked at her.
Senona’s face finally took on a subtle tinge of change.
I had made it clear that I was here with Allyce and the girls all the time to talk to the president of L. K. about the contract, but this receptionist had deliberately misunderstood my meaning.
So as not to look bad, he immediately found himself one step down: “I’m sorry, I remembered I didn’t have the document, I’ll come back another day, thank you”.
The receptionist smiled sweetly: “Goodbye Miss Delahoz!”
…
As Senona stepped out, Allyce and Lucila entered the lift.
Lucila asked curiously: “How did you know the receptionist wouldn’t let her in?
“I don’t know.” Allyce smiled innocently, “I thought Severo wouldn’t even bother with her, I didn’t think she’d even be able to walk through the doors of the L. K. Group, maybe I still overestimated her.”
Allyce had never thought that the receptionist would even let Senona in.
There were really different types of bosses and different types of employees.
He couldn’t help but think of the receptionists of the three companies he had met in the past.
The receptionist at Yunteng Technology was a bit annoying, but at least she knew her place.
Your own Delahoz Group, the receptionist was simply rubbish.
The LK receptionist was really just like Severo, commercial and real.
At the thought, Allyce couldn’t help but pucker her lips and smile.
Lucila poked her: “It’s early autumn, are you getting horny with that face?
“You’re the one who’s horny”.
Just as the lift reached the floor, Allyce gave Lucila’s forehead a firm squeeze for her injury before lifting her feet to get out.
“Miss Delahoz is here, the president is waiting for you in his office, I’ll take you there”.
Severo’s secretary greeted Allyce with a smile when she saw her.
“Thank you.
Allyce and Lucila followed.
The office.
The secretary ushered them in and spoke respectfully: “President, Miss Delahoz and Miss Floria are here”.
Severo didn’t know what he was looking at, he didn’t look up, he just gave a soft “hmm”.
“Sit down here, the president has just arrived at the company for a few days and has a lot to deal with, so please bear with me.”
Although the secretary could see that Allyce and Severo’s relationship was not normal, but before everything was announced, she, as an employee, still had to say what she had to say and do what she had to do.
The secretary poured them water and turned to leave.
It was two minutes before Severo got up and approached.
When his eyes fell on Allyce, a dark aura swept across his eyes.
Allyce was wearing a uniform today, a short top and a tight skirt.
The black work uniform perfectly outlined the curves of her body, her waist was so slim it looked like it could be broken with one hand, and her long white legs stood out.
Severo felt his mouth go a little dry and reached down to loosen his tie before taking a seat across from them.
“Let’s get started, you only have an hour”.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
Allyce looked at him.
He took the floor to explain: “There are so many things, they have to be distributed evenly”.
Allyce had almost forgotten that, as chairman of the L. K. Group, he was very busy.
Without further ado, he began to pick up where he left off last time.
Because of Severo’s words last time, he went back to doing a lot more homework, feeling that he could finally raise his eyebrows in front of Severo for once.
This time, the conversation ended quickly and Severo did not say much in the process.
In the end, a simple comment was made: “Well, there is progress”.
Allyce pursed her lips, trying to hide the slight excitement she felt inside, when she heard Severo speak again: “But, by my standards, it’s still too far away”.
