Devil President's Night Bride

Chapter 37 Don't Be Scared! Just Do It!

But no matter how much he cared for Amanda, she was tired now. Thinking of what had happened in the hospital, She gripped the pillow tightly subconsciously. She couldn't let anything happen to Sheryl.

She didn't know if it was because of the stimulation of the hospital or because of what Darren said to her, which made her feel depressed. Amanda dreamed that she was running away from home all night. She wanted to cry, but she couldn't cry out. She could only be afraid in her dream. When Amanda woke up, she found that she was in a bad mood and was down in spirit.

Darren went out early in the morning but didn't have breakfast. She was happy to enjoy it. She grabbed pieces of bread and soaked them in milk. Nola was amused by her childish behavior, so did Amanda. She giggled like a fool as well, and then went to the company.

When she entered the company, she felt that the atmosphere was different. Everyone was in a hurry, and there was no whispering. No one was in the elevator. When she arrived at the office, Sophie was standing there with a serious look. Seeing her come in, she said hurriedly, "Mrs. Amanda, the morning meeting of the company is about to begin. Mr. Nicholas asked me to invite you over immediately."

"Morning meeting? What morning meeting?" Amanda was baffled.

Sophie said, "Yesterday afternoon, an announcement was made. Mr. Nicholas is going to inspect the company. The morning meeting is from 8:00 to 9:00. Everyone needs to sum up last month and make a plan for the next month. Haven't you received the notice?"

Amanda shook her head, "I haven't received any notice."

"We don't have much time now. Please go there quickly." Sophie said with a frown.

Then Amanda ran to the meeting room. She pushed the door open and went in. The speech was stopped. There was an unpleasant look on Darren's face when he saw her coming in. But he continued

to speak. After all the people here had seen her, they continued to look at the projector. Mr. Nicholas was sitting on the seat of Darren, and others' seats were adjusted accordingly. In the full view of the public, Amanda had no choice but to sit at deputy general manager's seat and it was the opposite seat of Nicholas, that made her feel even more stressful facing him.

"The above will be my plan." After that, Darren returned to his seat.

There was finally someone blocking Nicholas' eyesight. Amanda breathed a sigh of relief. She picked up the files on the table and pretended to read them carefully. But her shoulder was hit by Darren. Not understanding why, people around all looked at her intentionally or unintentionally. The conference room was silent like empty.

Nicholas gave a cough, which shocked Amanda. Amanda's face turned pale as Darren glared at her. 'It's not a coincidence, isn't it? I'll make a speech next?' she thought. It should be, she was the vice president. With a blank mind, Amanda stood up and walked to the front stage in a solemn and stirring mood. She remembered what Sophie had told her. Then she cleared her throat and said, "Good morning, everyone. Now it's my turn to report my work to you. As you know, I took the position officially yesterday, so as for summary, I don't have any."

Someone burst into laughter and quickly lowered his head. Others looked at each other and smiled, 'It's quite a unique opening like this.'

Amanda didn't care. She continued, "About my next plan, I'll make every effort to cooperate with you, Mr. Darren. Although I wasn't here when Mr. Darren's started stating his plan, and didn't understand his plan, but I trust him. I believe we can sit here not only because we're capable, but also because we believe that Mr. Darren who can control the company well. That's great. That's it."

Then, Amanda went back to her seat in a serious manner and buried her head in her documents. It was so embarrassing to say such words in front of so many people. What's more, she said it so

righteously. However, there was nothing she could do. It would be a laughingstock if she stood there to say that she didn't know there would be a morning meeting, and she didn't know anything since she just took over the job.

Amanda made up her mind. She couldn't flinch. She had never been a coward. Although she would like to kill herself every time after that, as long as she stood in front of the stage, she would never flinch.

A faint clap sounded. Amanda noticed that Darren raised his hands and clapped, then the others clapped as well. Nicholas laughed and said, "You are brave, Amanda. You are brave."

With her incidence, the rest became casual. After the meeting, Nicholas stood up and left. Amanda was still in a state of shock, but she was immediately sneaked up by Darren, "Hey, what are you holding me for?" Amanda said.

Darren glanced at her and said, "What do you want to do? Didn't you see grandpa has something to say?"

Amanda shook her head, 'No I didn't see.'

"Wow, that was really a sincere report! Do you really think that's all you can do? If you only had these, just asked for leave from the beginning and didn't come to the meeting. It was a disgrace." Darren said coldly. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Amanda rolled her eyes on him, "Give it a try. You are noticed only ten minutes before the meeting, what kind of report can you prepare."

"The notice was sent out yesterday. Who did you have fun with? You didn't even check your phone, did you?" Darren shook off her hands.

Amanda took a few steps back and held on to the table. She said angrily, "Darren, be polite. I really didn't receive any notice. Not in my phone."

"Not received, or do you have nothing to prepare?" Darren smiled, "You are really good at this. All the people in the company got it. There was a notice on the board. But only you, Amanda, didn't know it."

Amanda smocked back, "What are you proud of? We are a team. Don't forget that we are living together. Do you think that others will believe that I didn't know? Or do they believe that I am causing trouble because you spoil me? Don't be so emotional. You don't want me to mess it up every time, do you?"

Darren didn't reply. Amanda shrugged and followed him into the CEO office.

Nicholas sat leisurely in the position of Darren. When he saw them coming in, he said directly, "There are problems with the direction you planned. The company can only support you with 5% of its support at most, among which, 1% is for my sake. If it goes on like this, what are you going to fight with?"

Darren furrowed his brows and said, "The team has been preparing for this case for half a month. It's about to start next month. We don't want to lose more if we give it up now."

Nicholas laughed, "It's up to you. But I didn't expect that Amanda were so brilliant today."

Amanda smiled, feeling embarrassed, "Grandpa, don't laugh at me. I didn't prepare anything."

"Not to mention the content, it's enough to have this understanding and momentum. I don't want to listen to the lesson or the rigid report. In fact, it's just a simple exchange meeting all the time. I never think that the company has a sense of inferiority. It's a team, an integral whole, and each of you need to cooperate. Darren is serious because of the stereotype. His company is stiff, and it's like Sparta's army, no human feelings." Nicholas shook his head.

Was he serious? Was he stereotyped? He was a stone hearted bastard and a psychopath who always took advantage of her. Nicholas, you couldn't be so partial to him just because he was your grandson. It drove Amanda crazy.
