Her CEO just fired off several sarcastic remarks at him; since when did this guy beco so easygoing?
Adam Jones caught the teasing look from his wife and raised an eyebrow at her.
His expression scread "any comrade who speaks up for my wife is a good comrade," making Elly Campbell’s eyelids twitch uncontrollably.
Yet, the laughter in her eyes couldn’t be suppressed: truly her beloved leader, muah.
The door to the CEO’s Office was closed, and Jasmine Churchill’s face turned completely pale at Adam Jones’s remark: "Company rules apply only to outsiders."
Her older cousin brother forbade her to call him that and climb the family ladder, citing company rules.
Yet Elly Campbell could co to see her husband freely.
Because in his eyes, her younger cousin sister was an outsider, but Elly Campbell was family.
Jasmine Churchill really felt terrible at this mont, and her tears fell even harder.
Secretary Edmonds is the Chief Secretary of the secretarial departnt, second in position only to Robert Green.
Having been with the Jones Corporation for so many years, she is smart and has seen the world, and there’s hardly anyone she hasn’t co across.
She watched Jasmine Churchill when she first started, striving to perform, although she found this young girl a bit too eager to show off.
But thinking that it was natural for soone just out of school and entering society to try to impress their superiors, she did not say anything.
Knowing she was President Jones’s younger cousin sister and the heiress of the Churchill Group, she didn’t put on airs in front of other secretaries and was willing to learn and work hard, so she genuinely taught her without holding back.
But at this mont, she found herself quite looking down on the young girl.
Not only did the CEO of Campbell spot that this young girl was intentionally trying to sling mud at his wife and himself, but as the Chief Secretary of Jones, she saw right through her too.
President Jones has had many admirers over the years, which she had beco accustod to.
After all, no matter how many admirers there were, none could compare to the Peony Flowers – President Jones’s most beloved one.
But if an admirer doesn’t know their own worth and dares to compete with the Peony, even attempting to overshadow it, that’s what she finds disgusting.
When President Jones’s life was in the balance, and the Jones Corporation was almost collapsing, it was the lady who, while heavily pregnant, single-handedly held up the company.
At that mont, Secretary Edmonds began to view their CEO’s wife as nothing short of a deity.
Now, seeing this young girl trying to plot against her, Secretary Edmonds found her particularly disagreeable.
The other secretaries too, though they might not think as deeply as Secretary Edmonds, in the entire secretarial departnt, even when strictly adhering to business, nobody would dare to block the CEO’s wife.
Anyone with brains knew that the lady was President Jones’s lifeline, and with her by his side, "the king might cease to rise at dawn."
And this overconfident intern actually tried to block her, but what could be the reason?
Nothing but a deliberate attempt to agitate the lady.
Even if it were really for official business that they might block soone, it would be the Chief Secretary, or at the very least, the regular secretaries that Jones Corporation honestly employs. Since when was it up to an intern to take the initiative to block recognition?
She really thinks too highly of herself.
Tsk, tsk, tsk!
The secretaries who had been addressed as "sister" all morning had their impression of Jasmine Churchill plumt to rock bottom in an instant.
At this ti, Jasmine Churchill was completely unaware that she had made such a bad impression on the senior secretaries; after turning deathly pale, she returned with reddened eyes.
Thinking that their strange looks were out of sympathy for being ridiculed for no reason, she let the sense of injustice spread directly to her face.
Because of the good impression she had made on the senior secretaries that morning, she went to her own seat and sat down, allowing the tears to fall freely in her sense of grievance.
