After Gloria sent the message, she waited nervously for Kenny's reply.
She had never been so nervous even when she texted Colin before.
Nearby she heard her colleagues muttering.
"I heard that Sun Zhenghua asked for leave, going home to rest."
"What's the matter with him these two days? He used to wish he could pretend to be dedicated to his job in the company every day!"
“…”
When Gloria was interested in their conversation, one more colleague joined in the discussion.
Their voices became less and less audible.
Gloria did, however, hear these words. "... Gloria... Did... Yesterday..."
Gloria suddenly sneezed, so were they talking about her?
…
Sheng Ding Media Group
All people were quiet in the room, as Kenny sat in the head of the table. He looked down as he flipped the project report and evaluation with a poker face.
The top management below all seemed to be starightening their clothes and sitting properly, not daring to speak. After all, the boss behind the scenes was a lot grumpier than President Carl.
People outside thought Carl was the boss of their Sheng Ding Media group, only the senior managements knew that this man was the real boss of the company, and that his whereabouts and identity were mysterious, but whenever there was a major decision to be made in the company, this man would come out and chair the meeting.
Kenny hadn't been the company for a long time, so Carl dealt with everything in the company, and it was really hard for Carl to run the company and attend all kinds of events.
Gloria went to work for the Taylor's Group, so he happened to be able to take care of his work there.
A couple of people in the company were working with some senior executives to try to get control of the company, but that's not a big deal.
Finally Kenny looked through all the papers, set aside some of them away neatly, and threw the others straight into the middle of the table with a loud crack.
Everyone was shocked.
Kenny looked up, scanned everyone slowly at the crowd, as his voice was harsh. "Everyone is like the patriarch of the company and has been with the company for a long time. Since we’ve been working together for so long, I'll give you one last chance. Pick up the papers yourselves and do them properly before you bring them to me."
When he had finished speaking, he got up, leaving the room. Carl followed him, carrying off the papers Kenny had just folded neatly.
When Kenny got back to the office, he loosened his tie, sat down in the chair behind the desk, reached out and rubbed his temple.
Carl followed Kenny in, he put down the papers and said, "These dame old guys, how can they be so submissive as to finish the papers and send them to you?"
Kenny looked cold. "If people were fired by Sheng Ding Media Group, which other company in this industry would dare to hire them?"
He sounded arrogant, but Carl knew that he had the right to be arrogant.
Even though Carl felt that Kenny was grumpy and seemed extremely arrogant, Kenny's actually a nice person. It’s the old guys who went too far this time.
"If you have nothing else to say, go to work first." Kenny said as he pulled open a drawer under his desk, pulling out a cell phone.
He pressed the power button and the phone's screen lit up, displaying an unread text message.
Unsurprisingly, it was a text from Gloria: I'm Gloria. Thank you for sending me the mobile phone and I like it.
His eyes fixed slightly over the words "I like it," and then he raised his lips, smiling.
Before Carl went out, he saw Kenny smiling at the phone, and he wondered. "Why are you smiling at your phone so brightly? I'm scared to see you like this."
Kenny was in a good mood, so he casually said. "If you're scared, why don't you just leave?"
Carl went around to see what Kenny was looking at, but Kenny looked like he had eyes on the top of his head. He flipped the palm of his hand, covering the phone over the desk.
Carl,“…”
Well, Kenny was tough!
