When Shannon Quinn heard others praising Landon Sutton, she felt as if they were praising herself. She humbly smiled and said: "He hasn’t really managed these things. I see you’re quite busy too, so I’ll disturb you now. How about we have lunch together at noon, and I’ll introduce you to President Sutton. We’re all familiar, so we can look out for each other."
"Really? That’s great, thank you so much Shannon. You’re so nice, no wonder President Sutton likes you so much."
At noon, Shannon Quinn reserved a restaurant near the company, waiting for Sharon Griffin to finish work so they could head to the restaurant together.
Sharon Griffin asked: "Aren’t we waiting for President Sutton?"
Shannon Quinn: "I’ve told him; he’ll co by himself later."
Sharon Griffin: "You guys have such a good relationship, it’s really enviable."
Shannon Quinn pursed her lips and smiled: "You haven’t seen him when he’s being exasperating."
The restaurant was just across the street, you could get there by crossing the road.
Shannon Quinn handed the nu to Sharon Griffin, who looked through it and asked, "Shannon, are you pregnant? Are there things you can’t eat?"
Shannon Quinn: "No worries, just order what you like. I heard you graduated from Kingsbridge, that’s impressive."
Sharon Griffin humbly smiled and said: "Everyone in Boss Sutton’s company graduated from prestigious universities; I’m not really anything special."
Shannon Quinn: "But for girls to work in this field shows real smarts; like , I don’t know anything about these things."
Sharon Griffin: "There’s specialization in every field; my friends and I really like your designs, but many are limited editions, really hard to snatch. We have several issues of your magazines at ho."
Shannon Quinn laughed and said: "Next ti, I’ll design a set especially for you."
Sharon Griffin: "Really?! Speaking of which, we seem to have a connection; my boyfriend’s last na is Quinn too."
Shannon Quinn: "Really? Does he work around here too?"
Sharon Griffin: "You should know him; he’s ntioned you to ."
Shannon Quinn was stunned for a half-second, guessing: "Jett Quinn?"
Sharon Griffin nodded: "At first he said he was your brother, but I didn’t believe it."
Shannon Quinn was a bit surprised for a mont, then asked: "Why don’t you work at his company then?"
Sharon Griffin sighed and said: "He initially asked to help him, but I didn’t want to start working through connections right off the bat. I wanted to experience the workplace on my own. Besides, I only went for the interview at Sutton Group with a ’give it a try’ attitude; I didn’t expect to succeed. I naturally don’t want to miss out on such an opportunity. Actually, I have a bit of a selfish reason too, to see how a big company is managed, to learn so experience to go back and help Jett."
Shannon Quinn also knew that the current Jett Quinn was different from before. Even if she didn’t quite like the Quinn Family, if Jett had settled down and was willing to establish a family and develop his career well, she was still happy to see him getting better and better.
Shannon Quinn said: "I’ll give you my husband’s WeChat contact later. If you have any work-related questions, you can ask him directly."
Sharon Griffin was deeply moved: "Shannon, you’re really wonderful. Soday I’ll invite you and President Sutton to dinner with Jett."
Landon Sutton arrived late, sat next to Shannon Quinn after entering the restaurant, "Have the dishes been ordered?"
Before Shannon Quinn could speak, Sharon Griffin handed the nu to Landon Sutton and said: "I’ve ordered two; President Sutton, please see what you want to eat."
Landon Sutton glanced at Sharon Griffin, and Shannon Quinn smiled as she introduced: "This is the girl I told you about last night."
Sharon Griffin politely smiled and introduced herself: "Hello, President Sutton. My na is Sharon Griffin, I’m interning in the Planning Departnt."
Landon Sutton, out of politeness, responded coldly: "Hello."
Then he lowered his head to ask Shannon Quinn what she wanted to eat.
After ordering, Sharon Griffin wanted to consult Landon Sutton about so work-related questions. Shannon Quinn found it hard to join the conversation, and Landon Sutton seed rather unwilling to answer Sharon Griffin’s questions. But, since it was Shannon’s request, he reluctantly responded a few tis and then said: "Aren’t these things supposed to be taught in school?"
Sharon Griffin just smiled and said: "I just want to hear if President Sutton has a different perspective."
Shannon Quinn tugged Landon Sutton’s clothes under the table, softly saying: "Be patient; this young girl seems very eager to learn."
Landon Sutton didn’t say a word; after eating, Shannon Quinn initiated so casual conversation with Sharon Griffin to avoid an awkward atmosphere. After the al, she picked up Landon Sutton’s phone and added Sharon Griffin on WeChat.
"Sharon, if you have any work issues, just contact him directly."
Sharon Griffin looked at Landon Sutton, pursing her lips and said: "President Sutton is so busy; he probably doesn’t have the ti to help with my questions."
"No worries, send him a ssage, and he’ll reply when he sees it."
Sharon Griffin smiled and thanked: "Then I hope to learn a lot from President Sutton in the future."
Landon Sutton made a sowhat insincere smile and nodded perfunctorily.
Sharon Griffin used work as a reason to leave first, while Shannon Quinn looked approvingly: "Such a diligent kid."
Landon Sutton glanced at Shannon Quinn: "You’re about the sa age as her."
Shannon Quinn: "Around the sa age, but she’s just graduated, just entering society for work. She’s smart too; if you promote her, she could accomplish great things in the future."
Landon Sutton wiped his mouth with a napkin: "Are you saying I don’t have enough work, so you’re giving additional tasks?"
Shannon Quinn: "Oh, as her senior, teach her more. When I first started working, I wished I had a ntor guiding ."
Landon Sutton: "That guy nad Lu?"
Shannon Quinn chuckled: "He’s indeed my ntor; show so respect, why use ’that guy nad Lu’?"
Landon Sutton’s expression wasn’t pleasant; he stood up to settle the bill while Shannon Quinn followed behind with a smile: "Honey, you’re the most suave, the most gracious man I’ve ever t."
Landon Sutton wasn’t buying into the flattery, keeping a stern face, but when they were about to cross the street, he stopped, looked back at Shannon Quinn.
Even with the traffic lights at the street corner, he still took Shannon Quinn’s hand as they crossed together.
"I’m holding a eting this afternoon; you can sleep in my lounge."
Shannon Quinn curiously asked: "Can I sit in the eting?"
Landon Sutton frowned and cast her a glance: "What can you understand?"
"That’s precisely because I don’t understand, so I’m curious about what you discuss in etings."
"Alright, then write a report for afterward."
Shannon Quinn pouted: "Giving assignnts now? Just give a corner seat and pretend I’m not there."
Landon Sutton didn’t respond as he entered the elevator. Shannon Quinn rushed in, looking at him eagerly until the elevator reached his office floor, he finally said: "No talking and no sleeping."
Shannon Quinn froze for a mont, then realized he agreed, promptly nodding enthusiastically: "I promise to listen attentively!"
