Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO

“Oh? Mr. Lowe, you’re the person in charge of the

project?” Walter took his hand warmly.

“Uh, yes. Nice to meet you,” Emmanuel replied after

giving Lexi a quick look.

“Mr. Lows, welcome to the inspection! I should be

accompanying you, but I have an important meeting

to attend. I’ll arrange for the project supervisor to bring

you around!”

“Sure. Thank you, Mr. Zackas

“I should be the one thanking you. Thank you for

understanding Please wait in the VIP reception roorn!”

Water was incredibly thankful that Emmanuel had

such on agesable personality.

Soon, Milani made her way to the general manager’s

office hastily.

The sight of Emmanuel enjoying the air conditioner

and delicious food in the VIP reception room made her

grit her teeth in anger.

Ha! That b*stard must be here by assuming someone

else’s authority as his own. Look how he is lying

through his teeth to swindle for food and drinks!

Milani cursed inwardly before entering the general

manager’s office.

“Mr. Zackas, you asked to see me?” she asked, flashing

a sweet smile.

Her attitude did a one–eighty.

Walter was busy preparing the documents for his

meeting. Without looking up, he ordered, “Ah, yes.

Terence Group’s person in charge is here, so please

take care of that person on my behalf.”

“Okay!” Milani replied eagerly.

The project is about to be completed soon, so I’ll be

getting a well–deserved promotion and an impressive

three hundred thousand bonus. By then, I plan to throw

an unforgettable party to show off my success! I must

invite that useless Emmanuel so he’ll see the difference

between us. It’ll be a great chance for me to humiliate

him. Serves him right for being so smug previously!

Walter rose from his seat and approached her.

“I trust you to do a good job. The project is about to reach completion soon, so nothing can happen at this crucial moment, okay?” he cautioned as he patted her

shoulder lightly.

know, Mr. Zackas!” Milani responded coyly.

Walter was her superior, so she needed him to

approve her promotion and bonus.

Soon, Milani arrived at the VIP room with fruits and

drinks.

Flashing a smile, she greeted Lexi warmly and

proceeded to give the latter a warm welcome.

As for Emmanuel, she merely provided him with water

as he was just the third party.

Seeing that, Lexi chided, “Ms. Zimmerman, what is the

meaning of this? You can be frank if you don’t

welcome us to inspect the progress. We can leave

right away!”

“Huh? Ms. Summerton, I don’t understand. I’m

welcoming you!” Milani replied innocently.

“You deliberately ignored our person in charge. How is

that welcoming him?”

“What? The person in charge?” Realization finally struck

Milani.

The person in charge of the project isn’t Lexi but

Emmanuel? What the heck is going on? Why would a

gynecologist be the person in charge of Terence

Group’s project?

Seeing her distress, Emmanuel smiled in response.

He didn’t know what was going on, but the sight of Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Milani’s shocked expression pleased him to no end.

“Mr. Lowe, I’m really sorry. Please have some fruit!”

Milani offered the fruits she had personally cut to him.

“Mm, you did a good job by cutting the fruits. Can you

open that durian for me? It’s my favorite fruit!”

Emmanuel grinned as he pointed at the durian on the

table.

Milani went cold with fury.

Mr. Lowe, you’re quite a picky eater, huh?

Despite her fury, she had to do as told.

D*mn it. Do I have no choice but to give in even though

Emmanuel is merely assuming someone else’s

authority? I can’t believe Terence Group hired him to

be their person in charge. Is it because he helped them

get rid of the ruffians?

It took her a lot of time and effort to open the durian.

Milani couldn’t stand it anymore. When Emmanuel left

to use the restroom, she purposely asked softly, “Ms.

Summerton, why would your company hire a

part–timer to be in charge of the project?”

Jacob had been on his way to Terence Group for an

interview when he unexpectedly ran into Emmanuel

previously. As a result, Milani was aware that

Emmanuel had interviewed for a part–time job there.

She was dying to know how Emmanuel became the

person in charge of the project in such a short time.

“Ms. Zimmerman, are you doubting Terence Group’s

decision?” Lexi retorted coldly.

“Of course not, Ms. Summerton. You’ve got it wrong. I

wouldn’t dare question your decision. I was just

curious.”

Milani knew that Lexi was the CEO’s secretary in

Terence Group, so she dared not offend her.

“Ms. Zimmerman, I’d advise you to focus on your own

duties. You are not in the place to judge our company’s

personnel!”

Milani was caught off guard by Lexi’s icy retort.

Why does it seem to me that Lexi is Emmanuel’s

subordinate? What the heck is going on?

Emmanuel happened to return and heard Milani’s

words. It was pretty obvious to him what she had in

mind.

Since she’s hostile to me, I shouldn’t show her any

mercy!

“Ms. Zimmerman, please make a copy of this

document.”

“Ms. Zimmerman, please show us the progress of the

project.”

“Ms. Zimmerman, I need to talk to the engineering

department about something important. Please

arrange for a meeting.”

Upon Emmanuel’s return, he treated Milani as if she

were a servant, barking orders at her in a manner that

was far from appropriate.

Since she has some spare time to learn more about

me, I’ll keep her occupied!

Milani had an extremely busy day running errands, and

by the time she was done, her calves were sore and

swollen from the excessive walking. On top of that, her

heels had become so worn down from all the activity

that they had completely broken apart. A wave of fury

crashed through her as she twisted her heels off and

threw them onto the ground.

I would’ve fallen out with Emmanuel if it weren’t for my

three hundred thousand bonus, promotion, and salary

raise that I would soon receive. Who does he think he

is? His annual income is only eighty thousand, yet he

has the audacity to boss me around. This is totally

unacceptable, considering I make three hundred

thousand a year.

By half past five, Emmanuel was ready to get off work.

A smile nudged his lips as he commented, “Ms. Milani

Zimmerman, you did a good job despite your poor

attitude.”

Milani felt anger swept over her again.

Why does it sound like he’s giving me a rating after

enjoying my services as a masseur? F*ck you,

Emmanuel! Just you wait!

“By the way, this is the latest design of the building’s

logo. Remember to update to the latest one!”

The main objective of Emmanuel’s visit was to get to

know the progress of the project.

He breathed a sigh of relief upon finding out that the

logo had not yet been put up, affording the Terence

Group the opportunity to make the necessary

alteration to the logo.

It means that the project can be completed by the end

of this month. In that case, Mackenzie wouldn’t have

any reason to refuse to go home with me!
