"That's a good suggestion. I'll get back to you tomorrow." Zachary gave Anya a slight nod before walking out of the office.
Watching the door close behind him, Anya murmured to herself, "My Lloyd, why do women keep flocking to you? Can't you just dial it down a little?"

Since he hadn't finished reviewing the documents, Zachary hadn't yet begun his duties as the deputy manager of the marketing department.
He spent almost the entire day going through the materials. At this pace, he would be able to finish everything by the end of the workday, allowing him to start his role as deputy manager the following day.
Compared to Zachary's relaxed day, Wendy's work was far from easy. Given Yel Corporation's significant influence, it was only a matter of time before news of their terminated partnership with Jennings Corporation spread.
That very morning, as soon as Wendy arrived at the company, her secretary, Vivian Smith, informed her that several small and medium-sized partners had called to inquire about the cancellation of their collaboration with Yel Corporation.
Wendy knew it was impossible to keep this news under wraps, so she spent the entire morning making phone calls to those partners to explain the situation.
However, her explanations didn't tell the whole truth. She informed them that Jenning Corporation was currently putting its overseas expansion plans on hold to focus on optimizing its core products.
Compared to entering the overseas market, the domestic market posed fewer challenges. The company felt it was safer to focus locally for the time being to enhance its domestic influence and reputation.
Jennings Corporation's current plan was to establish a branch in Celesea City. Once they stabilized there, they would replicate the model to build a national chain.
Such an approach would allow them to maximize their reputation and influence domestically before expanding to overseas markets and securing partnerships with leading pharmaceutical companies abroad, which would lead to greater benefits.
While Wendy's explanation had successfully persuaded most partners, a few remained skeptical and reduced their collaboration. Though she was furious, Wendy had no choice but to accept their decision.
