Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2529

Caroline nodded and said, “I’d like to have some ice cream. Check if you can get me a cup of it on your way here. Any brand will do as long as it’s in a cup.”

That way, it would not be messy to eat.

She had always preferred to eat ice cream from a cup.

Under normal circumstances, Mr. Fletcher would advise her against consuming something full of sugar, but given her bad mood tonight, a little sweet pick-me-up would not hurt and he gently obeyed her request.

Caroline ended the call only after she got his response.

She placed her phone on the desk and stood up to walk over to the window.

The Fisher Enterprise office building was not as tall as Queen Enterprise, but it still had a few extra floors compared to the surrounding buildings.

Caroline’s office was just one level below the top floor. Standing by the window in her office, she had a commanding view of the nearby structures.

Jensburg was a bustling city, especially at night when the streets were crowded and illuminated by vibrant lights.

While others were out enjoying their evening, she was still working in her office.

Despite being the highest decision-maker in the company during her mother’s absence, she felt isolated. Some employees would try to undermine her, especially her three brothers, who did not regard her highly both publicly and privately.

They conspired against her and made work difficult for her.

To appear vulnerable, every time she was faced with the challenges that were her own brothers, Caroline would let herself be brought to tears on the spot. Then she would leave the scene and have a fellow vice president confront her brothers to ensure that work could proceed smoothly. This strategy gave her brothers the impression that she could only exert power by acting tough.

If her brothers would not let her have an easy time, she would not make it easy for them either.
