"No, I can't accept it. I already feel embarrassed to accept it last time." Amanda refused immediately.
"It was yours." Nicholas said.
"No, I have donated it out. The weekly magazine has been following the news for a long time." Amanda said apologetically. She hit the headlines for a week with a bracelet. Although she still couldn't be recognized later, she did it after all and had to pay the price.
"After the news, the stock price of An Group had increased by 0.326% for three days on average. This bracelet is only worth a small portion of the amount. It's you who made it happen. So it's yours now." Nicholas said.
Amanda shocked. The stock price of An Group rose. As a big company, if An Group's stock price rose a little, then the whole property would grew a lot. She just donated a bracelet, but it could lead to such a great effect. She looked at the bracelet carefully.
Nicholas said in a low voice, "Don't donate it again. It will cost one million again to buy it back."
Amanda burst into laughter. The tension in the air seemed to ease a lot.
"It's time for food. The guests are supposed to arrive." Nicholas stood up and Amanda was about to get hold of him. But Nicholas wave his hand and said, "I'm old, but I'm not that old. People like your size, I'm able to knock three of you down."
Then Amanda took a few steps back and stood still. She absolutely believed in Nicholas.
When they were sitting at the dining room, Amanda was surprised to see the person who came in.
When Lionel came in and saw Amanda, he was surprised too, but he calmed down and sat down.
"I've read the business plan of SH Film. It's done well." Nicholas said, "The board of directors plans to invest 30 percent of the fund for the first milestone, and I want to see the results before adding it to the later. The extra 30 percent, I want to see the result of you and Darren before making a decision."
Lionel said with a smile, "Don't worry. I'll get the thirty percent."
Nicholas laughed, "It's good for young people to be confident, but I have to worry about everything in my life, so everything goes well."
Since Amanda didn't understand what they were talking about, she pretended to listen quietly. Nicholas suddenly opened his mouth, "How about you work as a secretary here?"
Lionel was surprised. He said, "I think it's a good idea."
But why did they change the topic to her? Amanda immediately became cautious. It seemed that Nicholas was very clear about the company. She was Darren's wife, but she worked as a secretary under Lionel. She wondered how would Nicholas think of this?
"Amanda, what do you think?" Nicholas turned to her and asked.
"I think it's good." Amanda proposed.
Nicholas said lightly, "I didn't ask you to work in the company, but to get you familiar with the company's condition. Lionel has given you his recognition, which indicates that you are quite familiar with it now. When you get back, Lionel will be relocated for another job. Since you are familiar with his work, you can take over him directly."
'I take over Lionel's work?' Amanda thought, puzzled. But there must be something wrong. Lionel acted as the deputy general manager of An Group, the second in command of An Group. In the company except for Darren, his words worked. But now, Nicholas asked her to be the deputy general manager.
As for the relocation, Amanda subconsciously looked at Lionel, heartbroken, 'He's leaving. Where is he going?'
"Well, I'll go to prepare for the handover." Lionel looked at Nicholas with a smile.
Nicholas nodded.
"Mr. Lionel, are you leaving?" Amanda looked at Lionel, couldn't help but asked.
