Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 49

The receptionist sneered, "Oh, you're here to see our general manager? He's a very busy man. He's not going to see you unless you've got an appointment!"

"I'm a representative from Henderson Group," Yolanda said, pulling out Harold's business card and a project contract bearing Henderson Group's seal. She had slipped this contract out of his briefcase earlier that morning while he wasn't looking.

"Henderson Group?" The receptionist accepted the card and contract and eyed them skeptically.

While she couldn't spot anything amiss, she found it hard to believe that Henderson Group would send someone so young and shabby-looking to negotiate a deal.

The receptionist gazed at her apathetically. "I had no idea Henderson Group hired children."

"I'm Yolanda Henderson, daughter of Henderson Group's president. I'm here to see your general manager on behalf of my father, and I have something for him that he'll find very interesting."

The receptionist looked Yolanda up and down again, her doubt evident. She still couldn't believe that the daughter of a listed company's president would dress so plainly. Even though she had her doubts, she decided to call the general manager's office since the contract seemed legitimate.

After a moment, she set down the phone and told Yolanda, "Mr. Rowse's office is on the 15th floor; you can just take the elevator up on your own."
