As soon as Zayne was done shouting, the door to the room flung open, and Xavier walked in immediately.
When Zayne saw Xavier, he started having cold sweats profusely. The things I said just now were so disrespectful toward him! What if he heard everything?
“M-Mr. Jennings...” Zayne was so terrified that he was trembling uncontrollably. He pulled a chair for Xavier and said, “Mr. Jennings, please have a seat.”
Xavier sat down slowly while lifting his head and asked, “Mr. Carlson, I think I've heard you saying that you're the most powerful person in the sales department. Did I hear it wrongly?”
Zayne was dumbstruck. He came to his senses quickly and explained, “Mr.
Jennings, I was talking nonsense. Everyone knows you have the final say in the company. Jared doesn't know how things work around here. So, I was just teaching him a lesson.”
“Well, as long as you know who's the boss.” Xavier's lips curved into a smile. He then waved his hand, gesturing for everyone to sit. “Have a seat, everyone.”
As everyone was sitting down, Jared walked over to sit next to Xavier.
Since Jared was aware of Xavier's intention, he wanted to size him up.
However, Zayne was annoyed at the fact that Jared was sitting next to Xavier. “Hey Jared, know your place! Do you think you have the right to sit there?”
Since it was such a rare opportunity, Zayne wanted to sit next to Xavier so that he could butter him up for a promotion. But Jared had just ruined it for him.
Everyone else was glaring at Jared as well. After all, he was just a newcomer. If anyone were to deserve to sit by Xavier's side, it would be Zayne and Maria.
“What's wrong? Why can't I sit here? What right do you have to tell me where to sit?” Jared sneered.
