Devil President's Night Bride novel Chapter 37

But no matter how much he cared for Amanda, she was tired now. Thinking of what had happened in the hospital, She gripped the pillow tightly subconsciously. She couldn't let anything happen to Sheryl.

She didn't know if it was because of the stimulation of the hospital or because of what Darren said to her, which made her feel depressed. Amanda dreamed that she was running away from home all night. She wanted to cry, but she couldn't cry out. She could only be afraid in her dream. When Amanda woke up, she found that she was in a bad mood and was down in spirit.

Darren went out early in the morning but didn't have breakfast. She was happy to enjoy it. She grabbed pieces of bread and soaked them in milk. Nola was amused by her childish behavior, so did Amanda. She giggled like a fool as well, and then went to the company.

When she entered the company, she felt that the atmosphere was different. Everyone was in a hurry, and there was no whispering. No one was in the elevator. When she arrived at the office, Sophie was standing there with a serious look. Seeing her come in, she said hurriedly, "Mrs. Amanda, the morning meeting of the company is about to begin. Mr. Nicholas asked me to invite you over immediately."

"Morning meeting? What morning meeting?" Amanda was baffled.

Sophie said, "Yesterday afternoon, an announcement was made. Mr. Nicholas is going to inspect the company. The morning meeting is from 8:00 to 9:00. Everyone needs to sum up last month and make a plan for the next month. Haven't you received the notice?"

Amanda shook her head, "I haven't received any notice."

"We don't have much time now. Please go there quickly." Sophie said with a frown.

Then Amanda ran to the meeting room. She pushed the door open and went in. The speech was stopped. There was an unpleasant look on Darren's face when he saw her coming in. But he continued to speak. After all the people here had seen her, they continued to look at the projector. Mr. Nicholas was sitting on the seat of Darren, and others' seats were adjusted accordingly. In the full view of the public, Amanda had no choice but to sit at deputy general manager's seat and it was the opposite seat of Nicholas, that made her feel even more stressful facing him.

"The above will be my plan." After that, Darren returned to his seat.

There was finally someone blocking Nicholas' eyesight. Amanda breathed a sigh of relief. She picked up the files on the table and pretended to read them carefully. But her shoulder was hit by Darren. Not understanding why, people around all looked at her intentionally or unintentionally. The conference room was silent like empty.

Nicholas gave a cough, which shocked Amanda. Amanda's face turned pale as Darren glared at her. 'It's not a coincidence, isn't it? I'll make a speech next?' she thought. It should be, she was the vice president. With a blank mind, Amanda stood up and walked to the front stage in a solemn and stirring mood. She remembered what Sophie had told her. Then she cleared her throat and said, "Good morning, everyone. Now it's my turn to report my work to you. As you know, I took the position officially yesterday, so as for summary, I don't have any."

Someone burst into laughter and quickly lowered his head. Others looked at each other and smiled, 'It's quite a unique opening like this.'

Amanda didn't care. She continued, "About my next plan, I'll make every effort to cooperate with you, Mr. Darren. Although I wasn't here when Mr. Darren's started stating his plan, and didn't understand his plan, but I trust him. I believe we can sit here not only because we're capable, but also because we believe that Mr. Darren who can control the company well. That's great. That's it."

Then, Amanda went back to her seat in a serious manner and buried her head in her documents. It was so embarrassing to say such words in front of so many people. What's more, she said it so righteously. However, there was nothing she could do. It would be a laughingstock if she stood there to say that she didn't know there would be a morning meeting, and she didn't know anything since she just took over the job.

Amanda made up her mind. She couldn't flinch. She had never been a coward. Although she would like to kill herself every time after that, as long as she stood in front of the stage, she would never flinch.
