Chapter 499
Lina Sweeney wanted to hurl more insults at them when
suddenly her vision was attracted to something further
behind Hattie Robson at the entrance of the office. She saw her boss walking into the office, but that was not the problem. The problem was the person next to him… was Hadwin. Stephenson?!
Lina Sweeney blinked her eyes and looked carefully. Okay, her eyes were not playing tricks on her. It was really Hadwin. Stephenson.
Hadwin Stephenson saw her as well but did not greet her. He merely shot her a smile and continued his conversation with.
her boss.
From Lina Sweeney’s point of view, her boss was being very respectful and humble toward Hadwin Stephenson when they conversed. They were talking as they walked, and her boss got his secretary to brew some tea to serve in his office room.
Lina Sweeney thought about it and understood why. After all, their design firm was not famous in Emerald City. Their main. company was slightly better in which it managed to squeeze itself into the rankings. As for their firm, it was merely a
stepping stone to get into a better company.
Hadwin Stephenson was the current boss of Stephenson Group, thus it was understandable for her boss to be extra respectful. After all, if they could get a collaboration with Stephenson Group, the company would hit the jackpot.
‘But why… What is Hadwin Stephenson’s purpose for coming
here?!
‘Our small design firm can’t possibly be under his
consideration?’
After a while, Hadwin Stephenson followed her boss into his office room. Hattie Robson looked disdainfully at Linal Sweeney. “What are you looking at? Do you know who that is? That’s the chairman of Stephenson Group. A person like you doesn’t have the qualifications to even stand next to him.”
Lina Sweeney looked at Hattie Robson in disbelief. She did not expect Hattie Robson to know who Hadwin Stephenson was.
Hattie Robson was secretly devising a plan. Their boss and her father had a good relationship, and that was why she led a good life in the company.
Earlier before their boss went out, he happened to see Hattie
Robson and reminded her to be at her best as the chairman. of Stephenson Group was visiting. He did not know the purpose of the visit but was going to find an opportunity to
introduce her to him and give her a chance to show her talent.
Such opportunities were hard to come by. As such, when she
heard about it, she immediately went online to search for
more information regarding the chairman of Stephenson Group. She did not expect that the actual person looked much younger than the photos she found on the net.
After looking at Hadwin Stephenson who had come in earlier and now looking at Taylor Carline, she suddenly found her boyfriend less appealing.
After some time, the secretary came to inform everyone to gather at the main meeting room as there was an important
announcement.
In just a few short minutes, 40 to 50 people were gathered inside the meeting room. Due to the limited seats available inside the room, those lower-ranking staff had to carry their
chairs into the room and sit nearer to the wall.
Lina Sweeney was one of those who needed to bring her own.
seat.
Lina Sweeney found a corner to sit down, and the others periodically filled in as well. What was surprising was that even the cleaning lady was told to attend the meeting as well.
‘What’s so important that every single worker is called in?’
Lina Sweeney was puzzled. Once the meeting room was filled,
her boss and Hadwin Stephenson entered the meeting room.
Usually, the boss would be the only person sitting at the main
seat, but today, Hadwin Stephenson was also seated at the
front.
Everyone could see how important Hadwin Stephenson was.
