A Lifetime With You - Chapter 58
MH Group.
As Neil Mo stepped out of his office with his assistant, Manager Autumn Feng, who was trying to strike a conversation with the secretaries turned around and smiled.
“President Mo,” Autumn greeted enthusiastically.
A deep frown appeared on Neil’s face when he saw the way Autumn’s hair was swaying around.
Although he had never cared about the way his employee was dressed, Neil found that the way this manager was behaving was too annoying. It was not hard for him to figure out that Autumn Feng was trying to seduce him with the way she dressed, but after trying so long to attract his attention, shouldn’t she know when it was time to give up? Since he had never reciprocated her move, she should know that he was not interested.
Meanwhile, the group of secretaries shot an annoyed look towards Autumn as they were worried that their boss would misunderstand that they spent their time gossiping during office hours.
There were a lot of sensitive documents around President Mo’s floor and as President Mo’s secretary, they had to deal with a lot of important matters. Therefore getting caught gossiping would not be a good thing for them.
Neil glanced at Autumn and his with indifference, but the woman was still smiling brightly at him.
“Manager Feng, how can I help you?” Assistant Shawn stepped forward and stopped Autumn from taking another step towards their employer.
Autumn shot a disapproving gaze towards Assistant Shawn, and the look on her face was quickly replaced with a smile when she turned to Neil again.
“President Mo, I heard that you are going to attend the banquet to welcome Mister Han to MH City.” The smile on her face stretched up. “You should know that I am very fluent in Korean. If you don’t mind, I can accompany you to this banquet.”
“Manager Feng, is the Business Development Department is very idle recently?” Neil said, causing the girl’s face to change slightly. “You are so free that you are willing to work extra hours and accompany me to a banquet?”
“President Mo, I only wanted to help you.”
“Then, you should focus on your job and don’t make any mistake.” Neil narrowed his eyes dangerously. “The last time you submitted a report to me, there were too many mistakes that even a rookie would not make. Manager Feng, don’t make the others think that the company only hired you because of your father.”
Autumn gritted her teeth as she watched both Neil and Assistant Shawn walked away. Her ears caught the snickering from the secretaries and she turned around angrily. However, the secretaries swiftly lowered their heads to look at the documents.
Autumn Feng was not content with how Neil had treated her.
She had known Neil for almost ten years when they were still teenagers. Her father was one of the directors in MH Group and the two had a lot of chances to meet. Autumn had always known that as compared to his younger brother, Neil was a bit cold to everyone else. He was someone who would not talk to other girls unless if it was for an important matter. But despite his cold attitude to people, Autumn had always known that Neil was a capable man.
She worked hard to enter MH Group and rose to a managerial position at her age.
However, why was it that now they have grown up, and she had come to work at MH Group, Neil would not spare another glance at her?
Neil Mo entered the elevator and glanced at his assistant. “Next time, don’t let anyone unrelated to come to this floor.”
Assistant Shawn nodded. “Yes, sir.”
The elevator finally stopped at the ground floor and walked out. As they walked into the lobby, the two men stopped once they noticed the little commotion. There was a little bit of shouting, and the crowds were gathering to look at whatever was going on.
Assistant Shawn frowned before he took out his phone to call the guards and instructed them to do their job properly. A deep sigh escaped him. They just got rid of one troublesome person, but now, another person was trying to make trouble at the company.
It was the time where the employees clock off work and there was a lot of passerby around the area. No matter what reason it was for someone to cause a commotion, it would not be a good thing if someone recorded this and posted it on the internet.
“Let me go!” A voice belonged to a male shouted out loud. “I will not go out until I see President Mo!”
Assistant Shawn’s expression changed upon hearing the man’s words. He glanced at Neil’s face and was relieved upon finding that the man did not show a hint of anger.
“President Mo, I will go over and see what is going on,” Assistant Shawn spoke. He watched his boss nodded curtly and went over to the crowd to see the commotion. However, his steps halted upon hearing the man’s shouting again.
“I was wrongfully accused! President Mo! You cannot do this to me! I have worked for this company for years. You cannot fire me just like this,” the man continued to shout.
Assistant Shawn glanced at his boss and found that his expression did not change much. He hurriedly walked into the crowd to check at what was going on and his face changed once he recognized Edward Xiao.
Recently, the company found that he had embezzled a sum of money and with enough evidence, the man had to leave his job.
Although Manager Xiao had voiced out that he was not guilty, the evidence pointed out that he was indeed guilty. No matter how many times they checked, everything was pointing towards Edward Xiao.
Assistant Shawn glanced at a guard who stood at the side and frowned. “What are you doing? Why would you allow someone to make a mess here?”
The guards immediately stepped forward to hold the man and drag him out of the building. Earlier, they have recognised Manager Xiao and did not want to treat him harshly. However, now that Assistant Shawn had arrived at the scene, the guards had no other choice but to prevent Manager Xiao from creating more disturbance.
“The next time you see him, don’t let him enter the building,” Assistant Shawn reminded the guards. Then, he went to President Mo’s side.
“President Mo, it was Edward Xiao, the manager who was responsible for the misappropriation of salary for the construction worker,” Assistant Shawn reported. “The guards have taken him away now.”
Neil stared at the direction where Manager Xiao was taken, and his eyes narrowed.
Recently, there were too many incident happening at the company.
