Love and Devotion No Longer His to Claim (Angela and Dexter) novel Chapter 214

"Ms. Graham, you can't do that. You need to maintain a distance from the employees so they will respect you," Logan said, furrowing his brows and lowering his voice in a reminder.

Angela glanced at him sideways. "Do you think the employees respect you?"

Logan choked on his words, momentarily speechless.

The joy on the employees's faces was genuine. They exchanged glances, all finding it a bit surreal.

Of course, some speculated that this was just a clever tactic from their new boss to make them work even more tirelessly for her all so she could enjoy a comfortable life at the top.

But honestly, who cared? All they wanted was to work happily and earn a living. It was fine by them. If today's first bit of emotional validation came from the upper management, they'd take it.

At that moment, two elevators arrived at their floor.

"Ms. Graham, you should go up first. Everyone is waiting for you," Logan urged again.

But Angela remained unmoved, smiling as she said, "Everyone, please go ahead."

"Thank you, Ms. Graham!"

"You're stunning, Ms. Graham."

"Ms. Graham is amazing!"

Many employees kept their words brief, greeting Angela before quickly stepping into the elevators.

Even as the elevator doors closed, they continued staring at her as if trying to memorize her face.
