He Clings to Me Every Night

Chapter 541: She Is Deliberately Fanning the Flames

Looking at Grace Ziegler’s astonished expression, Grace Martinez added, “This was personally arranged by the Director of HR under the direct appointment of Chief Daniel Marshall. Of course, you wouldn’t know of it, so learn from your soon-to-be-dismissed Chief Secretary whose ability to carry out tasks is outstanding.”

Meaning they are neither as sharp nor as invaluable as the Chief Secretary?

Grace Ziegler felt rather unpleasant. She felt as if someone had thrown a bucket of ice water over her, chilling her from head to toe in an instant.

Her heart, filled with mixed emotions, seemed to be coated with frost.

She initially thought she could compete, resort to some tactics, and perhaps land the Chief Secretary’s position. She never anticipated that reality would slap her harder than a tornado.

Grace Ziegler gripped her hand tight, but she forced a smile onto her face and desperately hid the upheavals in her heart, “Having such a handsome boss isn’t that bad at all! Chief Daniel Marshall’s decisions are not for us to question nor criticize.”

The other colleagues chimed in, “A notice will come sooner or later. No matter who our new boss is, we’ll still work diligently.”

The staff from the Chairman’s secretarial office chuckled inscrutably. They left this matter entirely alone, refraining from expressing any opinion or emotion.

Even if Grace Martinez was no longer the HR Director, she was aware of HR affairs – indicating her extensive network. Her chattiness might not necessarily be a good thing.

After all, they reasoned, she was still the Public Relations Manager, so it wasn’t surprising that she got the news early. Watching the secretaries from the Chief Executive Office almost seemed amusing.

Despite the turmoil in her heart, Grace Martinez remained calm and collected, wearing an indifferent smile. She nonchalantly toasting to everyone as though nothing had happened.

No matter how much they disliked someone, they would have to interact at work. So, whether they were from the Chairman’s or the Chief Secretary’s office, everyone drank the toast proposed by Grace Martinez.

After giving Grace Ziegler a deep look, Grace Martinez walked away.

A slight smirk on her lips, Grace Martinez’s eyes flashed with a cold spark.

She had intentionally stirred the pot, hoping to create more chaos in the CEO’s office.

Best case scenario would be if all the junior secretaries in the CEO’s office become ambitious and start attacking each other, allowing others to reap the benefits.

…

The Marshall Corporation’s annual gala welcomed numerous dignitaries, exemplifying the unmatched breadth of the Marshall family’s network.

Even though it was only an annual gathering, it was more grandiose than an awards ceremony and attracted national attention.

Both David Jefferson and Will Lee were present, their arrivals sparking quite a stir. The media could not stop taking photos of them, and the two were even called to the interview area to make a few comments.

The Chairman and his assistant walked the red carpet alongside the diva of Light Media, Waverly. Everywhere they went, they sparkled brightly, stirring up immense jealousy and admiration!

Jordan Bennett, arm-in-arm with the top hostess from COOKIE, Abigail Anderson, walked the red carpet into the venue, attracting all the attention of the crowd.

Just as it was nearing seven, the time for the main event, everyone saw a Rolls-Royce slowly pulling up to the entrance of the financial center on the large screen.

As the driver opened the door, an elegantly long leg stepped out followed by Daniel Marshall, who then held out a hand to assist Olivia Jenkins from the car.

Daniel Marshall, taking Olivia Jenkins’ hand and inviting her to link arms with him, brought immense envy to all the single dogs watching!

Upon seeing Mrs. Olivia Marshall on screen, all the women in attendance showed envious expressions and were surprised by her dress.

No one could guess the style of the dress Mrs. Olivia Marshall wore that evening. It truly was one of a kind— dazzling the entire audience!
