The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1042

After a pause, he continued, "Fredericks Corporations intend to get this business deal."

I looked up at him. "You can just tell me what I have to do."

I was his secretary now and worked for Fredericks Corporations. He could be straightforward with me if h e needed anything and did not have to beat about the bush. I was not going to refuse anyway.

Jordan smiled. His smile seemed a little casual."

You'll handle this matter."

I frowned, feeling somewhat puzzled. "I just joined the company and am only your secretary. My job mainly consists of organizing files and handling daily chores. That's it. Besides, a project director should be the one handling project cooperation. If you pass this task to m e, do you really think I’m capable enough to handle it?"

Jordan put down the cutleries in his hand and looked slightly more stern now. "You previously worked in Grant Corporation for many years and saved a business that was on the verge of collapse. Is that not enough to show how capable you are? I think a person's position doesn't represent a person's ability, and there isn’t a rule that says a secretary can't do the work of a project director. You can ask Cally if she has

ever followed up on a project.”

I frowned, thinking that he was just confusing different concepts and brainwashing me.

Seeing that I did not say anything, Jordan sighed. " Sending you to do the bidding also means that we'll stand a high chance of succeeding. At this point, it is just my selfishness, really.” u n

That meant what he said earlier was just bullshit. The main reason he wanted me to do this was that my relationship with Theo could help me gain an upper hand among the many bidders.

I did not like the feeling of being used as a pawn and felt very reluctant to go, but I was not in a hurry to say no either.

Jordan looked at me with a deep and profound gaze." It's fine if you refuse. I'll just give the 20 percent commission to someone else. That’s all."

I froze. Looking at him, I asked, ”20 percent commission?"

Jordan raised his eyebrows. "In all of Fredericks Corporations' projects, the final person in charge will always get a 20 percent commission in the end. It has always been like that."

I helplessly sighed. "Fine."

"The bidding starts this evening, which means you have to get the proposal done this afternoon," Jordan said with a smile.

After a long silence, I asked him with a somewhat uneasy expression, "Don’t you think you're putting me in a tough spot, Mr. Fredericks?"

Jordan raised his eyebrow. "So, you can't do it?"

It was a general consensus that goading someone into action was the worst thing one could ever do.

However, it was effective enough to make one angry.

Seeing that I had fallen silent, Jordan smiled slightly." You'll get a lot of benefits if the bidding is successful, n o?"
