Chapter 5: New Assistant of General Manager
“Take a seat.”
Daniel pointed to the sofa and slowly sat down, pouring tea into a cup.
Emily smiled and did as he said. She glanced around the room. It seems that the layout and interior design of this place have partly reflected the interior, and personality of its owner, warm and friendly.
“Please have tea.” He pushed the teacup closer to her hand and spoke softly.
“Thank you. I really don’t think I can be your employee.” She picked up the cup of tea and said.
“Usually, the excellent new graduates who come out of Fashion Future will choose to stay in the world fashion capital. Why don’t you choose to be like them? Is it because you still have an inheritance burden?”
Daniel’s question made Emily a little sad because she suddenly remembered the day she set foot at the airport.
Originally, she also intended to stay in country A to forever forget the man she loved, but because her father told him to miss her and because he was unwell, she had to fly back.
In the end, she couldn’t ignore both her father and the Wine company, so she forced herself to walk this difficult path.
In the past, it took her a long and hard year to successfully win the heart of the poor student Kevin.
Now that he was a rich bachelor and hated her to the point of wanting to kill her, she knew better than anyone that making him fall in love with her all over again was as difficult as climbing the sky.
“Right. More than that. My father has only me and he is old so he needs someone next to him to take care of him.” Emily lowered her head and replied softly.
“You did the right thing. Filial piety should be at the forefront.” Daniel nodded, agreeing with her.
” But… don’t you wonder why I ran here to apply for a job but didn’t work at the Wine Company?”Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“Normal. Jennifer has been working as a receptionist here for two years now.”
Emily’s eyebrows furrowed slightly when she heard Daniel speak. Just now, when she passed the main hall, she saw a girl who looked a lot like Jennifer, but she thought she was dizzy. She didn’t expect that person to be Jennifer.
Emily came to Unicons for a bad purpose because her father’s company is also famous, if she didn’t have her own purpose, she would not apply for the position of deputy sales department of this corporation.
Therefore, she suspected that Jennifer was like her, but she did not know if the person Jennifer was targeting was Kevin or Daniel or some guy with a high status and position in this corporation.
“Miss Emily. Actually, the fashion segment of Unicons Group is still in the stage of preparing everything and shaping the style and brand, so there is currently no job for you. Therefore, for the time being, I will let you work in another position.”
While Emily was worried because she didn’t know where Daniel would take her, there were two knocks on the door outside and then Emma appeared with the document signed by Kevin.
Emma was very surprised when she saw that the girl who danced with the general director of Unicons at the birthday party was sitting and talking with her boss.
“Mr. Kevin is still in the office, right?” Daniel took the document from Emma and asked.
“Yes. His assistant had an accident so he had to check all the documents himself. He doesn’t trust anyone but Venn.” Emma answered.
“Did you hear that? That’s the position I’d recommend to you. Assistant to the general manager of Unicons Group, very majestic.” Daniel turned to look at Emily and smiled brightly.
Not only Emily but also Emma were also surprised by Daniel’s decision.
The position he just mentioned is a hot chair that requires the person sitting in it to have real ability, withstand pressure, and be experienced both internally and externally.
Someone like Emily who just got her diploma and returned to her home country is not a wise choice for this position.
“I still don’t have any experience. I am afraid that I will make the general manager unhappy.” Emily hastily spoke up.
“Don’t be so self-deprecating. You have applied for the position of deputy head of sales, right? You are beautiful, highly educated, good at foreign languages, and most importantly, you were chosen by my brother as a dance partner at the party.”
When Daniel said that, he suddenly coughed a few times. He picked up a glass of water and drank, then continued to explain that his brother’s temper was very unpleasant and that she was the first person Kevin noticed among many other girls.
Therefore, Daniel believes that his brother will accept to spend his precious time training her to become a temporary assistant until the day Venn returns.
“A good first impression will help relationships get off to a good start. When I saw my brother working hard, I was also heartbroken. He is extremely picky about who is next to him. When he was young, I didn’t worry, but now that he’s old, if he takes on too many things, he will get sick. Emily, you are the best choice at this time, please agree.”
Although Emily was still very nervous, she knew this was a good chance. If she agrees, she can be close to Kevin every day and the probability of achieving the intention will be higher.
However, she did not know if he would accept her as a temporary assistant, but she knew that the risk of her being rejected by him was very high.
She didn’t expect Daniel to think Kevin had a good impression of her when he saw his brother drag her out to the dance.
If the man sitting in front of her had known how much his brother hated her, he would have grabbed her and thrown her out of the company, and cut off the friendship.
“I won’t have any opinion if he accepts me.”
“The person who is recommended by me, my brother will certainly have no opinion. Otherwise… lose my face.”
Originally, Emily thought Daniel was proving to her that he had a certain voice in Unicons, but she didn’t expect him to talk like he was a child.
As for Daniel, when he saw Emily smiling, he felt that she was like a lovely doll.
“Come on, I’ll take you to his room.” Daniel said while standing up.
Emily bowed to Emma and quickly followed Daniel.
At this point, Emma was able to breathe a sigh of relief because she knew that no man would want to push the girl he liked toward another man, even if that person was his brother.
The moment the door opened, Kevin immediately raised his head to see and when he recognized his brother’s familiar face, he immediately bent down and continued to sign the documents.
However, just a few seconds later, he looked up again because he recognized the perfume of the girl who had danced with him at the party that day.
“Are you surprised?” Daniel smiled and asked.
“What happened?” Kevin frowned and looked at the two of them.
“She’s your new assistant. I personally went down to the interview room to select. Smart, beautiful, highly educated, rich, good personality, good dignity, very nice voice, fluent in foreign languages.”
Emily didn’t feel happy when Daniel praised her. Daniel said everything right, but the good personality part, she is not sure that Kevin will believe it because in his heart she is the bad girl who betrayed his love and abandoned him when he was most miserable.
“Hello, Mr. Kevin. I will try my best to complete the assigned work, please give me a chance.”
She had just finished speaking when Daniel’s phone rang. Realizing that the caller was a world-famous designer, he immediately asked permission to go outside.
Kevin quickly took advantage of this time, leaving his desk and approaching Emily.
He glanced at her from head to toe, then stared at her beautiful face again. The distance between them was getting shorter and shorter and when his warm breath blew into her face, she thought he was about to kiss her.
“Your liver is also very big, you dare to apply to be my assistant. You don’t know fear, do you?” He whispered into her ear.
“Carbon must be subjected to pressure to become a diamond.” She held her breath and answered.
“Not all graphite under pressure will turn into a diamond. There are lumps of graphite that will crumble and turn into ashes.”
Kevin’s tone was full of menace that made Emily’s heart almost jump out of her chest. She understood what that statement meant. She knew that if he accepted her as his assistant, she would surely be tormented by him.
However, she had no other choice because the huge debts of the Wine company were gradually coming due and her father could not wait any longer.
Matthew had said that once his son was willing to marry her, she could freely use the number of dowry he gave her and it was a large number, which could solve part of the company’s debt.
Moreover, once she becomes his wife, other partners, and the bank will respect him and the Unicons corporation, extend the repayment period as well as support and no longer put pressure on the Wine Company.
“Tell Daniel, tell him you don’t want to work in this position. No, you have to say that you have thought about it carefully and don’t want to work at Unicons Corporation.” Kevin reached out and grabbed Emily’s chin and kept her face to his.
“I want to work at Unicons Corporation, and I want to be by your side.”
“You…”
“What are you two doing? Oh my, you… why did you strangle her?”
Daniel had just asked the previous question when he realized that Kevin was grabbing Emily’s neck, so he immediately ran over and freed her.
Daniel’s round eyes made Kevin speechless, he didn’t know if his brother was nearsighted, but said he was strangling this girl. Apparently, he was just holding her slim chin lightly.
“I just checked to see if she had plastic surgery or not.” Kevin leisurely returned to the desk and said.
“Oh my god, you see with the naked eye but you don’t recognize it. Emily is naturally beautiful.” Daniel frowned and affirmed.
“Uh. I have realized.” Kevin grimaced and replied.
