Secretaries were all busy. Seeing Lola approaching, Joey nodded to her politely and then went back to work.
Lola responded him with a smile. Then she knocked on the door.
"Come in." The familiar sound arose. She opened the door and got in.
"Boss." Lola greeted Harry, who was bending over his work, out of courtesy.
"What's wrong?" Harry lifted his head to get a glimpse of Lola. Then he bent over his work again. He didn't think she was there to thank him. Sure enough...
"Boss. I have an idea." Lola thought what she was gonna say was necessary.
"Go ahead."
"We can recruit a new person as General Manager. As for Vice General Manager, we can promote one of our department managers to this position." By this way, she wouldn't be the only one get promoted, and others in the company can distract their attention from her. What's more, someone who was really competent could get a chance.
"Any candidate?" Harry asked while signing the document.
"Yes. Jeremy Duan, the manager of Design Department. Although he is just two years older than me, he has been working in company for eight years. He is quite familiar with company's business. Besides, he is really good at management." Jeremy was a humble man. He once helped Lola a lot when she was in difficulty.
Lola had been wanting to return his favors. Moreover, Jeremy was indeed qualified to be the Vice General Manager.
"Ok. I will ask the HR Department to issue your promotions by tomorrow." Lola was astonished by Harry's decisiveness. It seemed Harry trusted her very much. She didn't know was she supposed to be happy with that.
"Thank you, Boss. Thanks for your time!" Lola turned around, planning to leave. "Wait, Miss Li." Harry put his pen down and stood up.
Seeing Harry standing up, Lola had a bad feeling. She wanted to flee away.
She moved steps to the doorway. But Harry strode forward, passed her and closed the door.
...
At that moment, Lola thought herself was a stupid rabbit that came to a wolf willingly.
"Boss Si, is there anything I can do for you?" She told herself to be calm. If he dared to offend her again, she would surely give him a crisp slap.
"Yes, of course. I promoted you. Do you have some rewards for me? Miss Li?" Harry gave Lola a hint while gazing at her.
Hearing his words, Lola smiled faintly, "Rewards? How about sending your nude photo to your fiancee?" Actually, she had already deleted that photo.
Thinking of that photo, Harry became embarrassed, "Could it be that our deputy CEO has been getting over lonely nights by watching my photo in the past years?"
Shit! "I am so sorry. That photo had already been deleted. What's more..." Lola spilt the beans. "Lola Li, how clumsy you are!" She blamed herself.
Looking at Harry's gloating face, Lola got angrier. She rolled eyes at him and turned to the doorway again.
But a trick occurred to her suddenly when she touched the mobile phone in the pocket.
She stopped and turned around, "Boss, you really want a reward?" Lola asked in a tender and lovely voice which was totally different from before.
She hooked around Harry's neck and kissed him on the lips while taking a selfie.
