Brycen frowned when he saw the painkillers in Caroline's hand. "Caroline, how did you offend Ms. Reed?" Caroline didn't dare to tell him the truth, so she had to explain that she had accidentally bumped into Scarlett while playing on her phone, and she had forgotten to apologize. When she remembered to apologize, Scarlett had already gone away. But later, she and her friend met Scarlett again.
The friend she mentioned was Devin.
If she and Devin hadn't broken up, she would definitely show off her relationship with him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut now that Devin had abandoned her, she didn't want Brycen to know about her relationship with Devin.
After all, she still wanted to marry a wealthy man. If Brycen knew about what had happened between her and Devin and spread it, her image would be dented.
It was known to all within the circle that Devin was such a libertine that he often changed girlfriends.
Brycen had doubts about Caroline's words.
Although it was his first tto meet Scarlett, he had heard many people talk about her.
They said that Scarlett would never budge on anything related to profit.
But it was understandable, as when it comes to earning money, no one would compromise.
So, it could not be said that Scarlett was difficult to deal with from the comment.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmApart from this, those people commented that Scarlett was very good in other aspects. She was polite, young not arrogant, and modest not humble. And she didn't do anything underhand.
What Caroline said was a trivial thing, and it sounded like Caroline hadn't done anything wrong. She had just forgotten to apologize immediately after accidentally bumping into Scarlett.
But Scarlett seemed not to be a person who liked making a fuss. How could she hate Caroline just because of such a trivial thing? Brycen was not stupid, and it was not easy for Caroline to deceive him.
Caroline had been his secretary for five years, and Brycen knew Caroline well.
Brycen was annoyed with today's negotiations, and Caroline's lie angered him. "Caroline, you have worked forfor five years, right?" Caroline felt a chill when she heard Brycen's words. "Yes, I've worked for you for five years and eight months." Brycen nodded and said while walking out. "I originally thought that Ms. Reed would agree on 4.3 billion. But just because of the conflict between you and Ms. Reed, she offered 4 billion, and we lost 300 million." "Not to mention your performance. I'm embarrassed for you! | hear that you have a rich boyfriend. It's true that a rich boyfriend can bring you benefits. But this is not the reason for you to screw up our negotiations today!" Brycen paused for a while, and his expression becicy. "Since you have worked forfor more than five years, resign yourself!" Brycen had really valued Caroline for her five years' work. Otherwise, he would fire her, as Caroline indeed made a serious mistake.
If Brycen found fault with her, Caroline couldn't bear the consequences.
When Caroline heard this, her face immediately turned pale. "Mr. Howard..." The company had already been acquired. Caroline only needed to wait for another month or two, and then she could receive the compensation for her dismissal when the legal person was changed and other procedures were completed.
But now, Brycen asked her to resign herself! If she did so, she couldn't get any compensation.
