Life at The Top novel Chapter 756

“I want it cold,” Celine said somewhat tiredly.

Yvonne soon brought in a glass of cold milk and placed it on the bedside table.

“Miss Maynard, did you have dinner with Jasper tonight? How could you have drunk so much?” Yvonne asked.

Celine massaged her temples and said, “We had to talk about some stuff, that’s it. You don’t need to pry into my personal life.”

Not daring to retaliate, Yvonne hummed in response. However, her eyes glinted with hatred as she lowered her gaze.

“You can leave now. I’m turning in for the night,” Celine said as she lay in bed. Then, she abruptly added, “When you have time, pull up the quotation saved on my laptop and lower the commission by 20%. Add in a reasonable explanation that will be accepted by the company too. I want it by tomorrow.”

Startled, Yvonne said instinctively, “20%? The company will never agree to that. They might even suspect that you and Jasper have some unspoken deal. Miss Maynard, this is not…”

“This is my decision. As general manager of Terra’s regional branch, I have the power to adjust the commission within a 25% frame. Don’t you know that?” Celine’s eyes were cold as she asked the question.

“Yvonne Stone, I know you don’t like Jasper, but that’s your personal feelings which I have no control over. I won’t order you to be overly nice to Jasper but you must never let your personal feelings get in the way of your work, nor will I allow you to constantly question my decisions. Is that clear?”

As she gazed at Celine, who had a stern expression on her face, Yvonne bit down on her lip and said, “Understood, Miss Maynard. I’ll carry out your orders right away.”

“Go.” Celine closed her eyes somewhat tiredly. She was feeling the effects of the alcohol now, and she did not have the energy to continue talking to Yvonne. “Turn off the lights when you leave.”

Yvonne left the room silently.

When Yvonne left the room, she had a murderous expression on her face.

She immediately returned to her room and called William.
