Chapter 46
I glanced at the documents Austin was holding. They were proposals for some technological products.
It seemed that the company would be launching another new product soon.
I replied, "Mr. Shelley, you're overthinking. Roberts Group will always be Roberts Group. I'm merely a
director. I took two days off because I wasn't feeling well. I'm really grateful for your concern, but you
seem very busy. I think you should focus on yourself. If you have too much on your mind, you might
end up making some mistakes."
Since there were only three of us in the elevator, I had no intention of going easy on him. However,
Austin's secretary was present. If I were to argue with him openly, it wouldn't do good for my reputation.
The elevator door opened. Austin wanted to retort but he had no choice but to swallow his remarks. In
the end, he shot me a glare and went out of the elevator.
After returning to my office, Kelsey came in before I could sit down. She looked at me and informed,
"Miss Reid, Mr. Roberts asks for you in his office."
I had not even settled down, how did Hendrix know that I came to the company?
I suppressed my doubts and nodded. "Okay, I'll go in a moment." NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Later, in Hendrix's office.
There was no one in the large office. It was spacious and quiet. I pouted. Hendrix was the only one
who could stay in an office as such.
I glanced around and noticed that Evan was busy with work in the secretary office. Thus, I went up and
knocked on the door.
Evan looked up. He was taken aback when he noticed me. He said, "Miss Reid, Mr. Roberts is in Mr.
Shelley's office. He will be back soon."
I nodded in acknowledgement. "Alright, thanks."
Then, I entered Hendrix's office room. I found a book on the bookshelf and settled down in the rest area
to read it. After completing the project with Richard, a few problems had surfaced and thus the
company did not assign me with other projects.
Hendrix probably wanted to see me and arrange some work for me.
However, after pondering about my future plans, I was conflicted. If Hendrix was as indifferent to me as
he used to be, it would be great. Yet, his attitude had changed recently and I was starting to hesitate.
What would happen if I left with my child?
"Hendrix, when Casper passed away, you promised him that you would take good care of Andrea. Look
at how you're treating Andrea now. Have you thought about Casper or Andrea? Besides, you're not on
good terms with Arianna, right?" Suddenly, there was an anxious voice. It was obvious that it was
Austin.
I did not mean to eavesdrop. Hendrix and Austin both came into the office and the latter was speaking
so loudly. It was impossible to not hear him.
Hendrix and Austin spotted me. Hendrix raised his eyebrow when he noticed me and asked, "When did
you come in?"
"Just now." After answering his question, I glanced at Austin and saw that he was nonchalant.
"There are two companies under Advancer Tech. They are going to launch new products soon. Go and
follow up with them. By the way, keep an eye on Fantasia Company." Hendrix's instructions were
directed to me. He handed me the documents on his desk and continued, "Also, the company has an
annual review coming up. Our contract with Alford Audit has expired, so go and check with the finance
department. If it's necessary to continue to work with him, follow up with them. If not, you can go to
Brilliant Audit and discuss with their director, Sawyer Clark."
"There are no problems with our cooperation with Alford Audit, right? Why do you want to change to
another audit firm?" Austin asked in confusion, "Also, Brilliant Audit is a fairly new company and a small
one too. If we hand Roberts Group's huge capital chain to them, it'll be troublesome if something goes
wrong."
