Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game

Chapter 116 The Company Has No Sinecure

Elisa reminded Ophelia, "Ophelia, you have to be careful. Women are all narrow-minded, especially beautiful women. I think she is targeting you."

Ophelia cleaned up the desktop and smiled, "Dear, you watched too much ancient palace intrigue, and you can't distinguish between modern and ancient. Now all you have to do is work hard. When I have time, I will arrange for a doctor to examine you."

Elisa didn't feel offended, and just pouted, "Ophelia, you are so mean. I really care about you, but you call me sick. I'm going to be angry."

Ophelia laughed, and then said to other employees, "I'll go there first. If I don't escape the difficulties created by the boss, I hope you can remember me as long as possible."

The male colleague reacted most fiercely and comforted her, "Ophelia, don't worry. If Miss. King is unreasonable, we will resign in protest."

Ophelia smiled and said, "Okay, with the words, I am willing to do anything."

The others burst into laughter and said in unison, "Ophelia, if your husband hears this, he will definitely be jealous."

Ophelia jokingly said, "Of course he will."

After chatting with colleagues for a while, Ophelia went to Tassach's office. Gracie was also here.

Ophelia nodded at her politely and said, "Miss King."

Gracie replied to her coldly, "In the company, please call me Director King."

Ophelia obeyed, "Director King."

Gracie snorted softly, full of hostility towards her.

Ophelia found it inexplicable. She and Gracie only met twice, so Gracie should not be prejudiced against her. In the end, she attributed the reason to Tassach.

"Mr. Conduibh, what's the matter?" She cast aside her cranky thoughts and asked.

Tassach asked with concern, "Ophelia, are you okay? Is the kid in your stomach annoying? "

Ophelia shook her head and said, "Thank you for your concern, there is nothing serious."

Tassach nodded and said, "Okay, I will keep you a place to go to Shanghai. If you make a decision, please tell me. I will arrange for you to go there."

Ophelia refused, "Mr. Conduibh, don’t have to be so troublesome. I’m five months pregnant. My husband’s family won’t agree with me going to Shanghai for training. You had better give someone else the quota. I remember there will be another training next year. I can participate in it with the newcomers."

"Ophelia, don't you think your request is excessive? You always come to work, ask for leave, and take part in training as you wish. Do you think you started the company? Relying on Tassach's tolerance, you act recklessly. Do you know how other employees gossip about him privately? You are too selfish, " Gracie put her arms around her chest and rebuked her very ruthlessly.

Tassach smiled at Ophelia apologetically, and then said to Gracie chillily, "Director King, I hope you don’t mix personal emotions at work. Ophelia’s vacation was personally approved by me. She was hospitalized for a car accident, and any kind boss would let her rest. Don't you think you are like a shrew?"

Gracie's pretty face became distorted. She gritted her teeth and said, "Tassach, how can you scold me for her?"

"Don't get me wrong. I'm just talking about the facts. I'm sorry if I offend you. If you have nothing to say, go out to work. I have some work to hand over to Ophelia," Tassach ordered Gracie to leave.

Gracie stood up, looked at Ophelia indifferently, and then walked to the door.

She stopped by the door, turned her head, and said, "Mr. Conduibh, I have been invited to lunch at noon. Since Ophelia is an employee of our company, let her go with me. You won't object, will you?"

Before Tassach could speak, Ophelia agreed, "Director King, I will go."

"Okay, don't play tricks. Our company needs to be profitable and won't hire idlers," After speaking, Gracie opened the door and left.

Tassach frowned and said apologetically, "Ophelia, don't listen to her."

Ophelia shook her head and said, "Mr. Conduibh, I am not a vulnerable person, nor do I like imagining things. What Director King said also makes sense. A company really cannot hire idlers. I took half a month's leave after only a few days of work. It is normal that some think it is unfair. Don't worry. I will do my best to complete the task and let everyone see that it is wise for you to recruit me to the design department."

Tassach smiled tenderly.

He motioned Ophelia to sit down and said, "Ophelia, don't be so nervous. The company is on the right track, and everyone is performing their duties. During the half month that you are absent, colleagues in your department have been active in sharing your work. They hope you won’t be so hard after coming back and are all very understanding that you are a pregnant woman. So, you have to thank them well."© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"No wonder my desktop is so clean. It turns out that they helped me complete the work. It seems that the employees of Mr. Chambers are not only good at work, but also very kind. Don't worry, I will work hard for my lovely colleagues," Ophelia responded.

Tassach smiled softly, and his bright eyes seemed to be able to comfort her.

Ophelia looked at him in a daze, but she quickly recovered and then said, "Mr. Conduibh, if there are no other arrangements, I will go out to work, for I have to go to lunch with Director King."

Tassach nodded.
