    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Chapter 940 Mere Employees</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Inside the car, Nathaniel remained silent for a moment before he spoke. “I didn’t ask her to leave because she was wearing perfume.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia became even more confused. “What’s the reason, then?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“I wish to pick you up and drop you off from work, not her.” Nathaniel paused before continuing, “As for you wearing perfume, I’ll tolerate it if you decide to do so.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After all, it was just a little over half an hour’s drive. Nathaniel figured he could just bear with it.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After hearing his response, Cecilia found it impable</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“I see. Don’t worry. I don’t need you to endure anything for my sake.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">That was because she didn’t like using perfume.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Throughout their journey, the two of them chatted intermittently. It didn’t feel like long before they arrived at the entrance of Orion Corporation.</font></font>This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Upon their arrival, Cecilia stepped out of the car.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nathaniel rode in a Maybach that day. Although it wasn’t as extravagant as yesterday’s limited–edition Rolls–Royce, it still drew a lot of attention. People were guessing who might be inside the car.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia felt that next time, she should ask Nathaniel to choose a less shy car, something more low–key.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">She was on her way to the office when she noticed several people casting peculiar nces at her.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Is she a new senior management at thepany? Howe I’ve never seen her before?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“She could be a client,” one of them suggested.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“She’s so gorgeous. I don’t think she’s just a client. More likely, she’s one of the senior management’s wives, or you know what I mean.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia wore no makeup. Aside from the scar on the right side of her face, she remained stunningly beautiful.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“What do you mean beautiful? Didn’t you see the right side of her face? There’s such a long scar there.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“I wouldn’t have noticed if you hadn’t mentioned it. There really is a scar hidden beneath her hair.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">As the few female employees descended the stairs to retrieve some documents, they whispered among themselves.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia could hear their conversation as she was wearing her hearing aid. Hence, she decided to remove the hearing aid for a while.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">She couldn’t control what others said, but she could choose not to listen, so it wouldn’t affect her mood.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Among the female employees, there was also one who served as a secretary at the CEO’s office.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">secretaries for Mr. Rainsworth.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nichs had two assistants and five secretaries, each handling different matters.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia was one of the secretaries, and she was given very little work to do.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Is this the woman you mentioned before, the wife of our previous boss?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The expressions on the other three employees‘ faces were full of intrigue.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Originally, the people at the CEO’s office had no idea about Cecilia’s identity. They only knew she was not ordinary and was a new hire.</font></font>


    During thest meeting, Cassandra revealed Cecilia’s identity to all the senior management, and it was only then that everyone became aware of it.


    “That’s right.” The secretary nodded.


    The other three clicked their tongues in surprise. “So, she’s our previous boss‘ wife. Now that she’s working as our current boss‘ secretary, isn’t that quite a step–down?”


    The secretary was displeased. “What do you mean by step–down? Do you think you earn more than me or hold more power?”


    “Serene, that’s not what we meant.” The three of them knew better than to offend anyone from the CEO’s office.


    “We simply felt it odd that she was once thedy boss, yet now she’s working as a secretary. What’s more, her current and former bosses are brothers, making her the current boss‘ sister–inw.”


    “That’s right. It does sound odd to have your sister–inw as your secretary.”


    Only then was the secretary, Serene Grey, appeased. “What’s the big deal? Didn’t you see how the once high and mighty Miranda and Adrian could only return as mere employees?”


    “Rainsworth Group has never been about status. Only one’s capabilities matter,” Serene said. Though in truth, she was only deceiving herself.


    Suddenly, a somewhat shrill voice of a woman echoed from behind the four of them. “Adrian and Ie back as mere employees? Who told you that?”
