When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 940 Mere Employees

Inside the car, Nathaniel remained silent for a moment before he spoke. “I didn’t ask her to leave because she was wearing perfume.”

Cecilia became even more confused. “What’s the reason, then?”

“I wish to pick you up and drop you off from work, not her.” Nathaniel paused before continuing, “As for you wearing perfume, I’ll tolerate it if you decide to do so.”

After all, it was just a little over half an hour’s drive. Nathaniel figured he could just bear with it.

After hearing his response, Cecilia found it impeccable

“I see. Don’t worry. I don’t need you to endure anything for my sake.”

That was because she didn’t like using perfume.

Throughout their journey, the two of them chatted intermittently. It didn’t feel like long before they arrived at the entrance of Orion Corporation.

Upon their arrival, Cecilia stepped out of the car.

Nathaniel rode in a Maybach that day. Although it wasn’t as extravagant as yesterday’s limited–edition Rolls–Royce, it still drew a lot of attention. People were guessing who might be inside the car.

Cecilia felt that next time, she should ask Nathaniel to choose a less flashy car, something more low–key.

She was on her way to the office when she noticed several people casting peculiar glances at her.

“Is she a new senior management at the company? How come I’ve never seen her before?”

“She could be a client,” one of them suggested.

“She’s so gorgeous. I don’t think she’s just a client. More likely, she’s one of the senior management’s wives, or you know what I mean.”

Cecilia wore no makeup. Aside from the scar on the right side of her face, she remained stunningly beautiful.

“What do you mean beautiful? Didn’t you see the right side of her face? There’s such a long scar there.”

“I wouldn’t have noticed if you hadn’t mentioned it. There really is a scar hidden beneath her hair.”

As the few female employees descended the stairs to retrieve some documents, they whispered among themselves.

Cecilia could hear their conversation as she was wearing her hearing aid. Hence, she decided to remove the hearing aid for a while.

She couldn’t control what others said, but she could choose not to listen, so it wouldn’t affect her mood.

Among the female employees, there was also one who served as a secretary at the CEO’s office.

secretaries for Mr. Rainsworth.”

Nicholas had two assistants and five secretaries, each handling different matters.

Cecilia was one of the secretaries, and she was given very little work to do.

“Is this the woman you mentioned before, the wife of our previous boss?”

The expressions on the other three employees‘ faces were full of intrigue.

Originally, the people at the CEO’s office had no idea about Cecilia’s identity. They only knew she was not ordinary and was a new hire.

During the last meeting, Cassandra revealed Cecilia’s identity to all the senior management, and it was only then that everyone became aware of it.

“That’s right.” The secretary nodded.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

The other three clicked their tongues in surprise. “So, she’s our previous boss‘ wife. Now that she’s working as our current boss‘ secretary, isn’t that quite a step–down?”

The secretary was displeased. “What do you mean by step–down? Do you think you earn more than me or hold more power?”

“Serene, that’s not what we meant.” The three of them knew better than to offend anyone from the CEO’s office.

“We simply felt it odd that she was once the lady boss, yet now she’s working as a secretary. What’s more, her current and former bosses are brothers, making her the current boss‘ sister–in–law.”

“That’s right. It does sound odd to have your sister–in–law as your secretary.”

Only then was the secretary, Serene Grey, appeased. “What’s the big deal? Didn’t you see how the once high and mighty Miranda and Adrian could only return as mere employees?”

“Rainsworth Group has never been about status. Only one’s capabilities matter,” Serene said. Though in truth, she was only deceiving herself.

Suddenly, a somewhat shrill voice of a woman echoed from behind the four of them. “Adrian and I come back as mere employees? Who told you that?”
