Chapter 99
ex quietly oked through Abigail’s information and didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary.
A Abigail was given a tour of the company, she was brought straight to the top floor. Since Eric had given instructions to his subordinates, Abigail did: need to go through any orientation.
When the people in the secretary department saw someone new was joining, they all looked up at the same time. Upon seeing Abigail, Nicole froze. Abigail calmly glanced at her and looked into her eyes for a moment before looking away.
Nicole had goosebumps all over her body when she felt Abigail’s gaze on her.
“Everyone, let me introduce you to our new secretary!” said Alex.
Abigail said, “Hello, everyone. My name’s Abigail Reed. Since today is my first day at work, there’s a lot for me to learn. So, if I make any mistakes, I hope you can understand.”
Everyone else applauded for her after her introduction. “Welcome to the team!”
There were five secretaries in the department, including Nicole. Alex turned to her and said, “Ms. Hopkins, I’ll leave Ms. Reed to you then.” Nicole nodded with a faint smile. “Alright.”
After Alex left, she turned to Abigail with a subtle smile. “So, what are you up to this time, Ms. Reed? Why have you decided to work instead of living your life as a wealthy lady? This isn’t a place for you to mess around. Now that you’re here, you should learn how to obey the rules here.”
“I’m just Abigail Reed here, and I’m nothing more than an employee.” Abigail calmly looked at Nicole and asked, “What do you mean by rules?” Nicole scoffed. “I was wondering why everyone was acting so weird. So, you’ve hidden your true identity, huh? What’s up? Are you playing undercover now?”
Suddenly, Abigail got closer to Nicole and whispered next to the latter’s ear, “I won’t mind it if you want to expose my identity for me. Would you like to give it a try?”
Nicole’s gaze darkened for a split second before returning to normal. Then, she said casually, “Oh, you sure are funny, Ms. Reed. Since Mr. Wurt has left you in my care, I’ll be in charge of giving you work from now on.”
First, she arranged a desk for Abigail. It was far away from the president’s office and in a secluded corner. After leaving Abigail a bunch of documents and an employee’s rulebook, Nicole left to attend her own work.
Meanwhile, Eric had been in his office the whole time, waiting for Abigail to see him. However, even when it was lunchtime, she never came. Instead, Nicole was the one who entered the room.
“Hey, Eric! It’s time for lunch, so shall I order something for you from the restaurant from before?”
He glanced outside the office and asked, “Where’s Abigail? Hasn’t she reported to work?”
Upon hearing Abigail’s name, the smile on Nicole’s face faded a little.
“Ms. Reed has arrived, and Mr. Wurt has left her in my care. Since she doesn’t have any work experience, I told her to go through the employee rulebook and some documents first. When it was time for lunch, she left with the others to get some food.”
“She’s gone?” Eric asked with a frown.
Nicole nodded. “That’s right. Why would Ms. Reed want to work here, Eric? After all, her eyes have just recovered, and she should be resting more.” “She was the one who wanted to come, saying that she wanted something to do. Otherwise, her imagination will start running wild again,” he explained calmly.
She couldn’t help saying softly, “Even if she wanted something to do, it didn’t mean she should come to the company. After all, she’ll just bring us trouble, won’t she?”
Eric thought about it and said, “Don’t give her too much work. Since she has just joined us, just let her do some simple tasks.”
“Alright. So, what about the reservation?” Nicole asked.
“Forget it. You may leave now,” said Eric.
