Love My Friends with Benefits novel Chapter 15

Suddenly, a door swung open. Mr. Chow waved at me enthusiastically and I walked over to him.

He shut the door once we were in his office and asked bluntly, "Queena, what's going on with you and that Austin Smith?"

"Nothing. A friend introduced him to me, and we've only met once," I answered truthfully.

Mr. Chow was a middle-aged man, close to forty years old. He was schooled in the ways of the world.

"Then why did he specifically ask for you to handle the negotiations for this project? He seems to be a high-up, so you should really give it your all!" Mr. Chow shot me a meaningful look.

"I can't just sell myself off to close a business, can I?"

Despite my young age, I was already a sales director. There were rumors everywhere that I had gotten it by sleeping my way up the ladder.

However, I knew that they were dead wrong. I could tell them loud and clear that I had gotten to where I was because of my hard work and abilities.

"Let's not make things sound so ominous. I didn't ask you to go against your principles. You just need to make sure you toe the line, you know?" Mr. Chow said shrewdly.

"So I suppose you mean that I should learn how to put on a show and get what I need?"

"Queena, you're a smart girl. All you need is a little nudging." Mr. Chow beamed at my words.

"We'll see how it goes!" I said noncommittally.
