“The project will start tomorrow. Everyone has to work with Elisa and take her instructions.”
“Noted, sir,” some replied, while others nodded.
Elisa didn’t make any further comments. Her throat was getting dry from all the talking moments before.
Then, Gareth made his way out of the room.
“The meeting is over. You may proceed with your work,” Thomas quickly announced.
The crowd collected their belongings and left the room.
There were different attitudes toward Elisa suddenly becoming one of the company’s directors. Some were neutral, some annoyed – thinking she had nothing to offer, and some indifferent.
Meanwhile, she didn’t care what they thought about her.
After all, she was bound to encounter challenges in life. She just had to resolve them when the obstacles arose.
After returning to her office, she started drafting a new action plan.
However, as soon as her hand touched the mouse, her phone rang.
“Ms. Benett, I’m Serena Jenkins, Mr. Wickams’s new assistant. He is calling you to his office.”
Serena? A new girl?
Elisa was surprised to hear that. Gareth usually delegates most of his tasks to Thomas. Perhaps Thomas is busy with other stuff. I’ve never heard of Serena Jenkins, though.
“Sure,” she replied.
“See you.”
She put the phone down and made her way to Gareth’s office.
When she arrived at the door, she knocked before saying, “It’s me, Mr. Wickam.”
