After the meeting room returned to silence, Nicole was released from the meeting room. It was almost 1 o'clock at that time. She went to the canteen to have lunch, but there was no food left. After what had happened in the morning, Nicole had no appetite and ate something hastily before returning to her office.
Not long after Nicole went to work, the meeting was over. When Miss. Li returned to her office, she heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing that Nicole was looking at her, Miss. Li stopped and said to Nicole, "Nicole, come to my office."
Nicole guessed that she might know what Miss. Li was talking about. Nicole took her notebook and waited for Miss. Li in the office of Miss. Li.
Miss. Li put the documents back on the desk, looked at Nicole for a long time before sitting down and said, "Have you heard what Mr. Eric said in the meeting room? Tomorrow someone will come from the human resources department of the E Group. Work hard. It must get a result at the end of this month!"
Nicole took notes and nodded, "I understand."
Miss. Li stared at Nicole coldly, with anger, reproach and helplessness in her eyes. Miss. Li said, "I really don't know if it's right or wrong to choose you. There seem to have a grudge between you and Mr. Lambert. Mr. Lambert always suppresses you and implicates me together, but you seem to have something to do with Mr. Eric. It's obvious that Mr. Eric is helping you at the meeting today. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have been able to get through this meeting. You should thank Mr. Eric! "
With a notebook in her hand, Nicole stared at the book in silence.
"I respect your privacy and didn't ask you about your relationship with Mr. Lambert and Mr. Eric. But now, your every move has affected me, so I have to ask you about it carefully. And as your leader, I have the right to ask my subordinates when I see you affect the work because of your personal feelings."
Seeing that Nicole didn't say anything, Miss. Li continued, "I hope you can tell me the truth!"
Nicole raised her head and glanced at Miss. Li. She knew that Miss. Li was blaming her, but she wouldn't tell anyone about her private affairs with Lambert. She didn't want others to know about her life experience, even it was her leader.
"Mr. Eric and I... There is no relationship between us." Nicole said lightly, avoiding the point.
"Then why did Mr. Eric's secretary ask for leave for you?" Miss. Li questioned.
Nicole couldn't figure it out. 'Why did Eric ask for leave for me? Maybe Eric approached me because he wanted to balance Lambert and ask for leave for me by the way. That's why Eric helped me in the meeting this morning.'
