Chapter 226
Seeing a car coming ahead. Hertha quickly swerved the steering wheel to avoid the car thanks to a previous mishap.
She didn’t want any accidents happening again because of her carelessness.
When the two cars were a decent distance apart, Hertha changed direction and got onto the main road, going with the flow.
David pulled up in the car that Lysander was in, parking the car.
Lysander opened the door, his shiny black shoes stepping onto the ground, his suit pants nice and crisp.
Tall, with an aura of sophistication, Lysander naturally exuded a noble yet intimidating vibe. David followed him into the Sinclair group.
In the lobby, Daryl was whispering with Cherry, but she felt a powerful vibe approaching.
Turning her head, she saw it was CEO Lysander entering.
She quickly stepped aside, bowing her head to greet Lysander’s arrival with respect and humility.
Lysander walked into the elevator, his vibe overbearing and intimidating, even the air around him seemed to tremble at his presence. He didn’t even spare a glance at anyone in the room.
Lysander took the private elevator up to his office. David was supposed to follow Lysander, but he saw Daryl and Cherry whispering something.
So, he stopped and asked Daryl, “What were you guys talking about?”
Caught off guard, Daryl knew David was Lysander’s right–hand man, and his position carried a lot of superiority.
Pissing off David meant indirectly pissing off Lysander.
Daryl dared not to irritate David. She nervously laughed, her eyes darting around, thinking of what to say, “Sir, we said you and Mr. Sinclair are very handsome.”
She gave him a thumbs up, her expression and gesture perfectly coordinated.
David was pleased to hear this compliment.
He had always heard employees discussing Mr. Sinclair’s handsome face, but no one talked about his own appearance. Now hearing someone say he’s handsome made him happy.
But he still said, “Don’t discuss this during work hours.”
Daryl paused and said weakly, “Okay.”
‘Discuss it after work.” David smiled, then walked into the elevator.
Daryl stood there dumbfounded. What did David mean? Discuss his handsomeness after work?
In reality, that comment was made up on the spot. She was actually whispering to Cherry about why the higher–ups banned gossip about Thalassa, otherwise, people would be fired and never rehired.
Thalassa was fired for spreading these rumors.
The warning made all the employees too scared to mention Thalassa’s ambitions of becoming Mrs. Sinclair and a high–ranking officer, and getting the Sinclair group’s shares. Not even a word was dared to be mentioned.
Daryl was specifically warned, so of course she dared not to mention that.
Lysander returned to his office to finish up his work.
There was a meeting in the afternoon. The secretary had to prepare the meeting room in advance.
Lysander dialed the secretary’s office phone. However, no one answered.
Just then, David walked in and informed Lysander of his schedule, “Mr. Sinclair, the meeting starts in half an hour.”
Lysander hung up the phone, then said to him, “Can you check what Thalassa is doing?”
This was Thalassa’s first time as a secretary. She should be giving it her all to show her ability and value.
David nodded, then went to the secretary’s office.
