“Ms. Lynn, I've already eaten. You can go by yourself." Zoey declined Jenni's invitation. She looked up at the office door to see that Jenni was indeed standing there.
She could not come in, yet she still insisted on standing there as if she was determined to get her to come out.
Zoey felt helpless as Jenni was not afraid to stand there and cause trouble.
There were several floors in the company that had confidential documents, such as their floor. They kept many important documents. Although losing those documents would not pose a threat to T Corporation's operations, Watson Biopharmaceutical's operations would be affected.
Therefore, the company's employees avoided the floors with important documents as much as they could as to not get themselves into trouble when the surveillance cameras were checked in case something happened.
"It's only been half an hour and you've eaten?" Jenni was doubtful.
"I brought some food from home. Ms. Lynn, I still have work to do. I'm sorry," Zoey said vaguely while wondering why Jenni was so hard to deal with.
"Zoey, are you avoiding me?" Jenni stared in the direction of Zoey's desk and asked.
To get better lighting, one wall of the office was only a meter long, while the rest of the walls were made of glass.
Thus, someone from the outside could see what was going on inside Zoey's office through the glass.
"You're overthinking, Ms. Lynn. It's just that Dr. Albus's matter is causing a huge commotion, so our department is rushing the research. We don't have much time," said Zoey. No matter what, Jenni was
still an executive in the company, so she did not dare to offend her.
All she could do was find excuses.
Jenni was still skeptical. "Regardless of how busy you are, it's still lunch break right now. Plus, what does the research have to do with you?"
"I'm the assistant. I need to help organize the information. Ms. Lynn, there are many important documents on this floor. I'd advise you to be more aware." Zoey hinted vaguely.
"T Corporation vacated this floor for Watson. What important things could there possibly be? If you don't want to go eat, then forget it. Let me warn you, Zoey. Don't think that because you have a stable job now, you don't have to build good relationships. I'm telling you, I had originally invited some executives in the company to introduce you to. I didn't think that you would... Forget it. Since you're so close-minded, don't blame me for not bringing you along," Jenni could not help but ramble on after being rejected.
What important documents? Watson was merely one of T Corporation's subsidiaries.
No matter how important the documents were, could they be as important as T Corporation's documents?
Jenni pouted and walked toward the elevator.
She saw how arrogant Zoey has become after she got a stable position as an assistant. Did she forget who brought her into T Corporation in the first place?
Zoey sat in her office chair as she looked in the direction Jenni left and could not help but shake her head.
She did not believe that Jenni had her best interests at heart.
Zoey remembered when she first graduated from college, she wanted to settle in A City and find a job here. However, even after so many interviews, she still could not get a job. Her relatives then introduced her to Jenni, saying that she worked for a big company in A City and that she could ask Jenni for help.
Thus, she did.
However, she did not go empty-handed. After some bribes and paying for many meals, Jenni finally said that T Corporation was hiring an assistant and that she would let her try it out.
She just provided her with a direction and did not take care of her at all.
Employees were not allowed to get into T Corporation through the back door anyway. Jenni was not really in a position of power.
Zoey only had herself to thank for passing the interview. It had nothing to do with Jenni at all.
It was just that Zoey found out about it much later. At that time, she truly thought that Jenni had a high- ranking position in T Corporation.
Zoey could not help but shake her head as she remembered the past.
T Corporation was her dream place to work, and she thought that Jenni was able to put in a good word for her at that time, so she was naive enough to have given her a generous bribe.
On the other hand, Jenni had shamelessly accepted it.
Tina walked in with files in her hands and knocked on the office door. She saw Zoey stare blankly with her hands on her chin. “What are you thinking about?"
Zoey immediately stood up. "Tina, what brings you here?"
"I came to deliver some documents." Tina walked into the office and placed the documents on her desk. "These documents were sent over by Watson. The front desk thought they were Mr. Crawford's documents and sent them to the secretary's office, so I brought them to you."
"If that's the case, you should've let me go get them." Zoey was embarrassed after hearing Tina's explanation as Tina had a higher position compared to her, yet she had to personally make a trip here. That was not how it should be.
"It won't make a difference. Why were you staring into blank space?" Tina asked with a smile.
"It's nothing. I just thought of the past." Zoey shook her head and did not hesitate to explain as she had been working with Tina for some time and knew what kind of person she was.
“I met Jenni at the elevator entrance just now. Did she come here to look for you?" Tina asked thoughtfully.
"Yes, she asked me to go downstairs for a meal, but I told her that I had already eaten," replied Zoey.
"She wanted to eat with you... I bet she just wanted to gossip," Tina said thoughtfully.
"I think so. She's been looking for me for two days in a row. I bet she wants to gossip about Dr. Craw." Zoey could not help but shake her head.
"Did you." Tina looked at her and paused.
"I didn't say anything. She can't get in anyway." Zoey hurriedly shook her head. Thank goodness Jenni could not come in. Otherwise, she would stay here 24/7, trying to pry on Luca's affairs. After all, she regarded Luca as her love rival.
Little did she know, she did not even qualify to be Luca's rival.
"Great. It seems like you took my advice. We're in no position to gossip about the boss' affairs. Let's just focus on our work," said Tina as she patted the thick stack of files.
"By the way, Tina. Have you been having trouble sleeping lately?" Zoey looked at Tina's face and frowned.
"Is it that obvious?" Tina touched her face. She was indeed having trouble sleeping and had dark circles around her eyes, hence the heavy makeup these days.
"Your concealer can barely cover your dark circles and eye bags at this point. No offense, but if you really can't sleep at night, you can go to Dr. Craw for some medicine to help you sleep," said Zoey. Rhett had mentioned to her before that Luca had developed a sleep aid that was better than sleeping pills. It would not cause any side effects or dependence.
She mentioned it on purpose, considering how much Tina had helped her in the workplace.
Moreover, Tina seemed to be on good terms with Luca, so Luca would definitely give it to her if she asked. Têxt © .
"Dr. Craw even has this type of medicine?" Tina said surprisingly. The reason she could not sleep was that she could not get a hold of someone.
