Chapter 301 You May Leave Now
Joseph leaned back in his seat languidly and superiorly. “It depends on when you’re going to cook for me.”
“I’m not sure. I’ve been busy with company affairs recently.”
If she had to cook for him, she needed to cook three meals every day. She needed three hours total, and that was excluding the travel time.
“We’ll talk about it when you’re sure of that.”
Chloe knitted her brows. “No, the cooperation with the Graham Group can’t be delayed any longer.”
“Cook for me for two days. Let’s set it up for around the end of this month.”
After a brief hesitation, Chloe said, “Deal.”
Cooking for him for two days was acceptable in comparison to the number of profits she could gain from the cooperation with the Graham Group.
Joseph lowered his eyes and hid the joy that flashed across his eyes after succeeding. He
behaved like a child who had successfully stolen a sweet. In his satisfaction, he was filled with a tinge of unconscious secret delight.
Chloe had guessed correctly-Joseph disliked Dai food-and she got to eat almost all of the food on the table. Most of the time, Joseph simply watched her eat.
She ate fast but not vulgarly. Her cheeks were stuffed, which made her appear like a hamster. This look of hers was vastly different from her other self-the strong business woman. At the moment, she looked adorable, which made him yearn to poke her cheeks.
After bidding goodbye to Joseph at the restaurant, they went to their separate homes.
Chloe, who was washing up, received a call from Alexander. He told her that he had no command over what happened earlier. After she expressed her understanding, he told her that the cooperation would begin the next day.
It looked like Joseph had called Alexander, and it had proven effective.
For the subsequent week, Chloe was the first who arrived at the office and was the last to clock out every day. She was as busy as a bee.
After the cooperation with the Graham Group was confirmed, she had a meeting with her employees. She informed them that they would be busy for some time to come.
At first, she had decided to raise their salary after this busy period was over. However, she heard the dissatisfaction her employees had toward her while she was getting water.
“Tsk! I’m so tired. We work overtime every day, and she doesn’t even buy us coffee. It was better when Ava was around. At least she bought us desserts from time to time.”
“Okay, okay. Stop complaining. We get paid overtime if we work longer. We didn’t get that in the past. All we got was our monthly salary. We were so poor.”
“We didn’t have overtime in the past, but we didn’t work late much. It was just a few times every month. How relaxing! I can’t stand her telling us how to do our jobs all day.”
“We’re almost of the same age. Can’t we have the same status even if she’s the boss? She behaves like she’s very capable but it’s just her family property.”
