Carla went back to work at the Hua Group a week later.
Today was her first day in the Marketing Department.
To be honest, Andrea and Noah didn't like Carla's idea of her getting back to work so soon, but she insisted. Thus, they weren't able to stop her so they just agreed in what she wanted.
Noah also wanted to expose her real identity to everyone to avoid people in the company from troubling her.
However, Carla rejected that. She thought that her identity would only put more pressure on her even if it meant having an easy day.
Moreover, Carla also had her own plans.
She was aware of how much Noah wanted to publicize their engagement but then, she naturally didn't want people to know about that.
Since this was her first day in this department, more so, as the marketing manager, Carla wasn't familiar with the environment inside the place. It was given that she wouldn't stay in this position for a long time. However, she still wanted to familiarize herself with the responsibilities of it as soon as possible.
Two days had passed. Carla had already learned the basics of her scope of responsibility. In fact, it wasn't really that different from what she had done before. It was just that many of those responsibilities had been upgraded to a managerial level.
Thus, she only needed to assign the work to her subordinates. The whole department was under her control now and she should be responsible to keep it running. In addition, she also needed to lead the whole department into developing and improving itself, which was something that would need a lot of time.
Regular meetings were also common to her now as the marketing manager.
Although she had been attending a lot of meetings before, the meetings she was attending now were bigger.
Compared with how it had been in the past, she had to go directly to the top floor now whenever there were important meetings about the company's development targets.
Just like now, Carla received a phone call from the secretary, telling her to attend a meeting.
Stretching herself, Carla leaned lazily on her chair and didn't move. She honestly didn't want to attend the meeting, more so, go to the top floor, and then see Noah's caring eyes.
"Miss Carla, The meeting is about to start. We should go up now,"
Helen He, Carla's new assistant, reminded her after coming in.
There were at least one hundred people in the Marketing Department here in the Hua Group's headquarters. Therefore, it was reasonable for Carla, a manager, to have an assistant.
"Helen, can you attend the meeting on my behalf?" asked Carla as she propped one of her elbows on the armrest while supporting her chin. She looked very lazy while sitting.
It wasn't that she didn't want to work. She just thought that the meeting wasn't as important as it sounded and she would just feel very uncomfortable if she sat there for a long time.
Helen He came in, took the notebook on her desk and forced her to stand up. "No, this meeting is especially important, so you have to attend it!"
"Important? I've just been the marketing manager, so I couldn't understand a lot of what they say at the meetings. I think I will want to nap there if you force me to attend it," Carla said in a very bored tone. Nonetheless, she still stood up after a couple of while although she was unwilling to attend.
She wasn't a versatile talent. Thus, suddenly being promoted to a high position gave her a lot of struggles in understanding what the meetings were about. She wasn't accustomed to hearing things like company market prospects, future development goals, and so on.
The business scope of the Sales Department was limited. She had to admit that her intelligence hadn't coped up with sudden high position change just yet.
"I don't think so. You are the manager and you'll naturally understand something if you keep on listening to it," comforted Helen He. Then, knowing that the meeting would last long, Helen He took a cup of hot water for Carla.
They went upstairs to the conference room together.
Actually, her assistant, Helen He, was the one Terence arranged for to take care of Carla.
Entering the conference room, Carla noticed that she was the last one to arrive.
Noah, who was sitting on the main seat, immediately smiled softly upon seeing her walk in. Then he said, "Let's get the ball rolling."
All members were discussing the merger and acquisition project.
