Lance did not force Nicole and turned to Yvette to instruct her.“Take Ms. Stanton to the lounge next to my office. Make sure to attend to her well.”Yvette nodded her head solemnly. “Yes, Mr. Sheldon.”She then glanced at Nicole and grinned.The three of them got on the elevator together.It was as if they had forgotten about Iris, who was behind them.Iris stood there with a pale face, took a deep breath, and went upstairs from another staff elevator.How could she be qualified to take the president’s exclusive elevator?Back then, the Sheldon family had just expanded its business here, and their conditions were not as good as those of other large multinational corporations. Even the president did not have an exclusive elevator.Iris remembered that in the past when she came to work, she always liked to come a little early and dawdle in the lobby, waiting for Lance to come on time so that she could pretend to meet him by chance and take the elevator upstairs together.At th
Yvette stared at Lance, who was unconvinced by anything, and really did not know what to say.She could only shrug helplessly.“Before Hans left, he said that Iris is very capable. She’s an ambitious person and can do even more for the company. She shouldn’t leave because of such trivial matters.”Lance’s expression did not change, and his tone was indifferent.“What Hans said might not always be true. There are times when he’s mistaken as well. Ambitious? I think she’s just delusional!”The sentence was thrown to the ground like a boulder smashing into the calm surface of the sea, causing waves to surge and swell up, ebbing and flowing unstably.“She’s already so vicious treating a newcomer like you. If she treats other employees this way, will they still have room to turn their fortune around?”Lance’s words made Yvette’s heart sink.She only thought about herself and forgot about others.Yvette could not possibly vouch for Iris, much less forgive her for the sake of others.
When Lance saw Iris, he restrained the emotions in his eyes and looked at her indifferently.“Do you know why I called you over?”His voice was extremely cold as always.Iris looked at him and quietly shook her head.She just felt her heart go cold.Previously, she thought she could understand his loneliness. She thought that she was the person closest to him mentally.However, she suddenly felt that she was wrong.Lance knocked a few times on the computer and did not bother with any superfluous nonsense.“Go to the HR department to do the formalities.”Iris’s face turned a little pale.She clenched her fists at her sides and her voice shook.“Why?”She forcefully controlled her emotions.He did not even bother to investigate?Lance pursed his lips as an obscure chill seeped into his eyes.“I thought you would understand. I just need to make a phone call to find out what happened just now.”Iris clenched her teeth, and her breathing became unsteady. She could not help b
Why was Lance willing to teach Yvette personally when she did not even know how to do basic work?Why could Yvette take the exclusive elevator, and Lance did not say anything about it?Why did Lance become extraordinarily forgiving in all matters when it came to Yvette?Iris had too many questions piled up in her heart, and they gushed out in a flash.She waited for an answer.An answer that would make her give up.Lance looked at Iris grimly. He frowned and spoke with a sneer.“Because she’s my wife and lover. With me, she’ll always have the right. You certainly can’t compare to Yvette.”Who were they to compare with Yvette?Just that one sentence made the blood fade from Iris’s face.Her eyes were filled with disbelief. “Wife?”Lance did not want to explain anymore. Why should he explain his private matters to a subordinate?“Get out.”Iris looked at Lance silently for a moment and finally felt the difference between their worlds.She thought that Lance was different fr
Upstairs.Yvette looked at the table full of snacks in front of Nicole and clicked her tongue a few times.“Ms. Stanton, your treatment is completely different from every guest. It’s like we’re serving the royal family!”Nicole patiently took a piece of mochi and tasted it. This dessert store’s custom-made snacks have always been her favorite.Yvette did not try to fool her with anything else. Nicole did not make this trip in vain.Nicole glanced at her. “The royal family? You’re the princess here. What did you say to Lance just now?”Yvette was stunned. She was seen through by Nicole.That little smart alec.“How did you know?”“Do you really need to ask?” Nicole pursed her lips. “I’ve never seen you hold back your anger. Where did your prowess go?”Yvette paused and sighed.“I wasn’t trying to hold back, but there weren’t any serious consequences, so I didn’t want to make a big deal out of it.”Nicole gnashed her teeth. “Don’t be stupid. You’re a master at identifying b*t
Yvette nodded in agreement.Nicole smiled. “So, it’s normal that you don’t know these things. No one asked you to learn, and they’re things that the people below will finish handling before handing them over to you. If you know everything, what would you need them for?”That was true.Hearing Nicole’s words, Yvette instantly felt better.Nicole lowered her head. “There’s no need to deliberately get on good terms with everyone. If a relationship is too good, it won’t be conducive to work, and you’ll have to take into account all kinds of favors. That’s exhausting!”Yvette nodded heavily and looked at Nicole with fascination.“Lil N, just let me follow you. I feel like working for you is much more useful than following Lance.”Nicole laughed. “Sure. As long as Mr. Sheldon is okay with it, I’ll welcome you with open arms.”Yvette sighed. “But my mom won’t agree. She wants me and Lance to improve our relationship, so she won’t give up these opportunities.”Nicole said, “That’s goo
Yvette was speechless and rubbed the place where Lance bumped into her, then forgave Lance.“It doesn’t hurt.”Lance looked at Nicole behind her and smiled. “Shall I walk you down?”Nicole said, “Of course, Mr. Sheldon.”She naturally knew that Lance was doing this for Yvette.Yvette’s attention was not focused on Lance at all.Everyone broke out in cold sweat.They watched as a world war disappeared.It was like their expectations were dashed.Someone spoke. “It’s because Mr. Sheldon wants to chase Ms. Stanton. That’s why he’s so reserved and gentlemanly!”Others echoed. “That’s right!”They did not understand the reason for Iris’s departure. The HR department was very tight-lipped and did not reveal a single word.Iris had blocked all her colleagues too, so no one could contact her.They suddenly realized that Iris, who was not competitive on the surface, actually had such a bad temper.Iris seemed quite different from the one they knew from the office.The three of th
Nicole covered her forehead and chuckled in the car. She told Clayton on WhatsApp about what had just happened.[Clayton Sloan: Fortunately, they got married early.][Nicole Stanton: Otherwise?][Clayton Sloan: They might cancel the wedding.][Nicole Stanton: Hahahahaha…]Yvette urged Luca to drive faster. Turning around, Yvette saw Nicole laughing while playing on her phone. She could not help but become speechless.“You’re with him every day. What else is there to talk about?”Nicole said, “Tons!”Yvette frowned. “You better keep in mind what I told you this morning!”Nicole put away her smile and nodded.“Don’t worry, she won’t find me.”Nicole’s current whereabouts had basically been erased. Except for the bodyguard following her, no one could find out where she was.They stopped at Tattle Bar.Nicole frowned slightly.“Why are we here?”Yvette hurriedly pulled her out of the car. “Let’s go go go. I have a surprise for you!”She could not hold back her excitement. T
