There were four of them in the car. The driver was focused on the road, Cornelia and Ben were giggling over something on their phones, and Marcus seemed like he was in a different
universe.
His two assistants were in the same car, but they were chatting away on their phones Especially Cornelia who was laughing so much, it made Marcus frown, “Rent”
There was a chill in his voice that startled Ben, who was deeply engrossed in his chat, President Hartley?”
Marcus glanced at his watch and looked at him icily through his silver timined glasses. “I want today’s inspection report in half an hour”
He was only giving him half an hour, which meant Ben had to prepare the report before they reached the office.
“Alright “Half an hour was a tight deadline but Ben didn’t dare to protest
“Cornelia, President Hartley was in a good mood just now, but something’s off now. Be careful” After replying to Cornelia’s message. Ben immediately whipped out his laptop to start on
the report.
Cornelia was closer to Marcus and could feel his icy aura. She put away her phone and subtly moved away to put some distance between them
Suddenly, Cornelia’s personal phone started buzzing
She glanced at Marcus before picking up the call “Abby, ask your friends and colleagues about it. I’ll ask around here too, to see if anyone knows a good interior designer”
It was still office hours and the boss was right beside her, so Cornelia quickly ended the call.
Marcus didn’t know what the call was about, but he could tell from Cornelia’s short response that she was looking for an interior designer.
He took out his phone, found a number he hadn’t contacted in a while and sent a message, it’s me, Jeremy. My wife wants to renovate our house. Can you help?”
The reply came quickly. I’m busy and my rates are high.”
Marcus responded, “Name your price”
The other party replied, “I like your style”
On the latter part of the journey back, Ben was busy with work, and Cornelia started dealing with her own stuff.
So, the car was eerily quiet, save for the sounds of typing.
Luckily, both Ben and Cornelia managed to submit their reports before they reached the office.
As soon as Cornelia got back to her office, the call from the supplies department came in, “Ms. Stewart, your company car is ready. Please come and sign for it.”
“Okay, I’ll be right there “The Hartley Group provided cars for senior management and both Cornelia and Ben were eligible.
Cornelia was surprised to find that the company car assigned to her was a Porsche Cayenne.
Cornelia walked around the car, feeling like she was dreaming. “Mr. Evans, are you sure this is the car assigned to me?”
Mr. Evans responded, “Don’t be surprised All the executives eligible for a company car will get a Porsche”
After confirming. Cornelia patted the car. “Ive always known that the Hartley Group is generous, but I didn’t expect this.”
Mr. Evans chuckled, “Ever since President Hartley took over the Hartley Group, the company’s earnings have been increasing Our employee benefits have also been improving. That’s why so many people are eager to join the Hartley Group.” novelbin
Cornelia could relate. When she interviewed, there were over 200 candidates but only two got in. It just goes to show that even the most hardworking individuals might not make it into the Hartley Group
