Ice and Fire novel Chapter 319

At that time, her phone suddenly rang. The ring took Cherry by surprise, and she couldn't help but shake for a few moments. After she took it out from her bag and checked its screen, surprise hit her again, because the caller was Mond.

She answered, "Hello?"

"Are you at work?" coldly asked Mond from the other end of the line.

"Yes, " replied Cherry.

He then imperiously ordered her, "The company will send you to meet a client later. You must arrived at the right place on time."

"What?" Cherry was a little confused, because only the JS Group knew if she was to be sent to meet some client. How did Mond know about this?

However, Mond didn't answer her question, and instead quickly hung up.

Cherry then put the phone on the desk, still thinking about what Mond had just said earlier. A couple of moments later, the internal phone also rang.

Cherry picked it up, and said, "Hello."

"Cherry, it's me, " said Selina on the other end of the line.

"Oh, Selina, " replied Cherry.

"Cherry, come to my office, please."

"I'm on my way, " answered Cherry, before she hung up the phone. She now vaguely felt that maybe what Mond said was indeed correct. Was there actually something that Selina needed her to do?

Cherry stood up from her seat at her desk and then walked out of her office.

Staring at the files in her hands, Selina was also a little confused. Why did that particular client nominate Cherry to negotiate the contracts?

After she heard the lift's bell ring, Selina looked up from her desk and saw that Cherry was already walking out of it.

Cherry walked up to Selina, and as she looked at her, asked, "Selina, what's wrong?"

Selina then gave her the files in her hands, and said, "Just take a look at this contract. The client appointed you to do the negotiating with him."

The moment after Selina finished her words, Cherry couldn't help but start to shake a little. Mond was right, but how did he know about the JS Group's business?

Cherry quickly browsed through the files, and found that one of the subordinates in her department was in charge of the project. Everything was done except for the signing of the contract. She had never been a member of the project team, but why on earth was she appointed to negotiate with them about it?

Selina also looked perplexed, and said, "Cherry, I don't understand. We've worked with these clients for a long time, and they all have a good track record, but I still think that something isn't right here."

Selina was very confident in her instinct and judgement. All of her life, every time she had felt that something was odd or out of place, she had always found out the reason why, but recently, although she thought that there had to be something going on behind her back, it was very difficult to find any evidence of it. She had no choice but to guess and try to look for any signs of what would happen next to make things more clear.
