Louie was still scheming something. It seemed that he had got everything under control.
He looked up at his niece, Melissa. After thinking for a while, he said, "Melissa, you can work in my company first. After Rorey gives the Tang Group to Yunis, you can go there and help him."
"Then what will be my role in the company?" Melissa asked straightforwardly.
Louie paused for a moment. He was surprised in Melissa's question. However, cunning as he was, he quickly regained his senses and replied, "To tell you the truth, all the important positions in the company are not available right now. How about being my assistant?"
He spoke as if he was giving her a charity. Melissa sneered, "Assistant?! Is that what you think? That I can only be an assistant?"
Bunches of companies had offered high salaries to poach her from AR Group, but she refused them all.
For the sake of the Ji family, she resolutely quit her job at AR Group and entered TEG to help Yunis.
But now, her dear uncle completely forgot about what she had given up for his family. He was only willing to give her a small position as an assistant. It was truly ironic.
"Melissa, I know that you deserve more than an assistant, but there are no other suitable positions for you. Don't worry, this is only temporary. I'll make sure that when Yunis is in control of the Tang Group, you will be the general manager."
Louie tried to persuade her with the position of General Manager of the Tang Group. It was such great temptation that Melissa shouldn't have any reason to refuse.
However, in Melissa's opinion, what Louie said was merely an empty promise. Whether the Tang Group would be Yunis' or not was still unknown.
So, she directly refused, "Sorry, Louie. The AR Group wants me back. I'm afraid I can't help you in the company."
"You are going back to AR Group?" Quinta cried out in surprise.
"Yes." Melissa nodded, "Actually, they had contacted me when I was still in TEG."
"If you go, what should we do about the matter at hand?" Quinta became a little anxious when she thought of the mess.
"I believe that Yunis can solve it by himself."
Melissa wasn't being selfish. She had new plans.
"No! You can't leave." Quinta walked over and grabbed Melissa's hands. She said, "Melissa, I raised you up, and you are like a daughter to me. We really can't do without you here. Yunis and Rorey are simply not capable enough."
"Can you let go of what Maddox and Rosiley did to you? Don't you hate them?"
Louie was indeed cunning. He knew what would hurt Melissa the most.
"I hate them, but..." Melissa paused for a moment before she continued, "But it doesn't conflict with me returning to AR Group."
Moreover, she had a purpose in returning to AR.
"Melissa, just listen to me. Stay." Quinta looked at her pleadingly.
Melissa shook her head, "I'm sorry, Auntie. I have to go back."
Quinta couldn't bear it anymore. She said angrily, "If you go back, don't call me Auntie anymore."
"I'm sorry." Melissa bowed to them, then straightened up her body. She left before they could say something more.
"Look at your good niece."
It never occurred to Louie that Melissa would leave without hesitation. He was so embarrassed that he angrily shouted at Quinta.
Quinta said in an injured voice, "Melissa has always had her own ideas. What can I do?"
Louie glared at her and remained silent.
...
Rosiley went back to work.
On this day, she and Yayoi entered the company together. The minute they stepped in, they felt people's stares from all directions.
"Rosiley, you have become the focus again," Yayoi teased her.
Rosiley said softly, "It's like a monkey walking into a crowd and being pointed at."
