Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 95

"No." I felt that Seth was a little strange today. So I could only comfort him first, "I need to think it over first. Please give me some time."

Seth over the phone was silent again.

After a long time, Seth said, "Okay." After that, he hung up the phone.

At that time, I didn't understand why Seth was like this.

But in just three days, I figured it out.

Because three days later, the company where we were would have a new boss. And the new president would take office.

I didn't see the mysterious boss that day. But there were all sorts of rumors about him in the office.

Some said that he was an old man. While others said that he was a handsome youth.

At noon, when I went to dinner, I saw some people from a furniture company carrying some furniture inside.

The furniture delivered by them was very luxurious, including a leather sofa and a huge mahogany desk.

Seeing these, I couldn't help but think of a person...

But soon, I dismissed this idea.

"How could the new boss be Patrick Cowell?"

His company wasn't specialized in design at all, especially the interior design. If he acquired so many companies without a valid reason, could it be that he was so rich that he simply wanted to waste his money away?

It turned out that my guess was true.

That day, the company had a meeting in the afternoon. It was clear that all leaders above the middle-level should be there. But I was called over, which was a surprise to me.

And after I went in, I found that Seth wasn't there.

At the meeting, Wendy announced that I would be promoted to the new CEO's assistant.

"Me? The new CEO's assistant?"

I was a little confused.

Wendy nodded, "Yes. After the new CEO read over the employees' data of our company, he appointed you to be his assistant in person."

"Congratulations, Charlotte."

"Yeah. The new CEO is very powerful. You'll have a promising future if you follow him."

"There are so many female employees. And he chose you, which shows that you have a lot of talents."

These middle- level leaders offered their congratulations on the surface. But their faces were full of disdain.

I knew that in their view, I surely had turned to some dirty means to get this position.

To be a designer was my dream. My dream was to become a super- class interior designer!

However, what was an assistant?

An assistant was to help the CEO deal with his chores.

Although in principle, I couldn't alter the decision. But I didn't want to give up my dream. So I made up my mind and said, "I don't want to be an assistant. I want to be a designer."

As soon as I said that, the ones around me looked at me as if they were looking at an idiot.

After all, everyone knew that being an assistant was much easier than being a designer.

Wendy didn't seem to be surprised by my words. And she said to me with a cold face, "No way. This is what the new CEO said. If you want to refuse, go and tell him in person."

I asked, "Where is he?"

I asked.

Since I had decided to say it, I didn't intend to shrink back.

Wendy looked at her watch and said, "He will leave the company at 5 p.m. You can go to him now."

I took out my cell phone and took a look, seeing that it was 4:30 p.m.

After thanking Wendy, I turned around and ran to the CEO's office upstairs.

In fact, the CEO's office had been set up in our company early. Because the last CEO was a boss who didn't pay attention to the business and operation in person. The office there was basically vacant.

I didn't expect that this new CEO would personally take charge of the company.

Originally, I thought he would be a responsible person and that he would respect an employee with a dream.

Unfortunately, I was too naive.

When I arrived at the door, the door of the office was slightly closed. Then I looked through the crack of the door and saw a familiar figure.
