Chapter 1008 New Deputy “Alright. We'll leave it to Samson.” Gregory nodded menacingly. “Kaze broke the legs of his son too. I bet he’s more eager to kill that bastard.” Kaze had no idea that his brief stint as acting mayor would brand him a loyal supporter of Loid.

The Lees ceased fire for that reason, directly at least.

The next day, Kaze’s presence was requested at the meeting room when he arrived at his office at Hudson Investment Firm.

“Why are we having a meeting?” Kaze asked Sophie after stepping into the

meeting room.

Sophie whispered, “Miru was here after you were gone yesterday, Mr.

Chairman. She criticized your lack of accountability and informed us that her assistant would act as the deputy manager here.

“The new deputy is here, and she called for this meeting.” While talking, a beautiful and commanding woman in a power suit walked through the door.

She glanced at everybody condescendingly and went on. “I should introduce myself. I am Jennifer Barwise. I am filling the role of deputy manager from today onward.” “Clap, clap.” The applause was scattered, half

hearted at best.

Kaze earned the respect of his colleagues for putting Jem in his place yesterday.

Many did not take to Jennifer because she did not look at Kaze when she came into the room. She had no respect for Kaze.

As Jennifer's face fell, she said, “I was an assistant to Miru, the chairwoman of Lefteria Group before joining Hudson Investment Firm.” “Clap, clap.” The applause was a little better.

still, the clapping fell short of Jennifer's expectations. Jennifer wondered if these people doubted her competence.

Upset, she asked, “Is Mr. Lee here yet?” The senior executives present frowned.

Jennifer talked as if Kaze was her subordinate.

Her tone suggested that she was the CEO while Kaze was the deputy.

Kaze replied, “Are you looking for me, Ms. Barwise?” With Jennifer's gaze falling on Kaze, she cut to the chase. “Mr. Lee, Hudson Investment Firm needs to make a big splash in the investment market, but industry peers know little about us.

«pve instructed our colleagues in PR to contact the media. We will be looking at many publicity projects.

“Mr. Lee, you carry yourself well. Since you have nothing better to do in the

office, you should get out there and help the company with its publicity.

“There’s an interview for the financial channel this afternoon. You should attend it.” The senior executives exchanged glances.

The new deputy was a go-getter, putting Kaze up fora job without discussing it with him.

Jennifer appeared to have labeled Kaze as eye candy.

If the senior executives had not witnessed Kaze’s prowess yesterday, they would not have considered him more than a pretty face too.

Although Kaze was not pleased with Jennifer's attitude, he recognized her

work commitment.

Jennifer took charge and tried to get \ things done just hours into her job appointment. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

She was driven just like Darcy.

Happy to leave the work to someone else, Kaze nodded with a smile. “Sure.

Since you have everything set up, I'll go n The senior executives present were speechless.

Was Kaze playing dumb again? Jennifer glanced at Kaze indifferently, realizing that Miru put her up for the job because Kaze was just a pushover.

He needed more than a few lessons on people management.
