Chapter 34
Chapter 34 We’ve Got Your Back
Julia hit a snag and glared fiercely at her, cursing Seraphina in her heart a thousand times over. She thought: You’re just someone who got to where you are by sleeping around! What’s there to be proud of?
“What brings Ms. Lane here?” Seraphina glanced at her.
Julia walked over, twisting her waist, and threw a document in front of Seraphina.
“Here, don’t say I didn’t warn you. Many people are envious of this project by the Gaia Group. Mr. Marx from Gaia Group is hosting a discussion of the collaboration tonight. You’d better seize this ‘opportunity,’ Miss Seraphina.”
Seraphina flipped through a couple of pages in the document, glanced at it without looking, and then closed it. She didn’t believe for a moment that Julia would be so kind as to share such a big cake with her.
But since she was so proactive, Seraphina would feel awkward if she didn’t cooperate.
She smiled. “Will you be attending tonight as well, Ms. Lane?”
“Of course, I’ll introduce you.”
“Alright, I’ll be there on time.”
Seraphina handed the document to Thomas. “Increase the points by thirty according to what’s written here.”
Thomas took the document without hesitation. “Okay, I’ll take care of it.”
Just then, Olivia pushed the door open, holding a bouquet, blocking everyone’s view.
“Quick, Seraphina, I’m exhausted.”
Seraphina was a bit surprised. “What’s going on?
“Someone is pursuing you. He sent you flowers Olivia raised her eyebrows, smiling mischievously.
Seraphina looked overwhelmed. “Olivia, who on earth is being so ridiculous?”
“Of course, it’s Hansen. He asked me to make sure I delivered them to you.”
Hansen?
That troublemaker really knows how to stir things up.
Olivia smiled. “Mark göt shipped overseas by his father to study, and I heard that if he doesn’t get good grades this time, Old Mr. Colombo is gonna break his legs!”
“It’s a shame I didn’t get to send him off. We’ll just have to give him a warm welcome when he gets back…
Seraphina reluctantly had someone take the flowers away. The air finally cleared of the strong floral scent, which was much more comfortable now.
Olivia nodded. “That’s what I was thinking, too. By the way, I’ve finished investigating the Gaia Group you asked about last time.”All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
Seraphina looked up at her, and Olivia smiled. “The Gaia Group has long become a shell company, borrowing money everywhere, owing banks a huge sum they can’t repay. They’re almost getting their company auctioned off, with many unfinished projects on hand. Anyone who gets involved ends up in a mess. Julia Lane is trying to set you up, isn’t she?”
Seraphina raised an eyebrow, not surprised. “So, they dug a hole for me to fall into…”
Then tonight’s meal will be particularly interesting.
“Thanks.”
Olivia patted her head. “That’s okay, but I can’t go to work with you. My mom is coming back from New Town. She just acquired a cosmetics company. She promised to let me participate in the research and development. You know, this is dream.”
Olivia’s mom was a well–known businesswoman in the industry. She had always wanted Olivia to be involved in company management. However, Olivia preferred laboratory research and development. This time, she wouldn’t miss the chance to be involved.
Seraphina smiled. “Let’s toast to you, making millions this year!”
They smiled at each other, no need for more words. It was a perfect understanding!
“Take care, and don’t hesitate to ask for help. We’ve got your back!”
Seraphina nodded. “Don’t worry, I won’t hesitate to ask for your help.”
Olivia chatted for a while and then slipped away with her bag. Seraphina then focused back on her work.
As Seraphina stood up in high heels at the end of the workday, intending to inform Thomas about the dinner appointment, Julia entered, swaying her hips. “Since it’s a private dinner, there’s no need to bring the assistant secretary along, right?”
Seraphina raised an eyebrow. “Alright then.”
