Chapter 7
The receptionist gave Sheena another look and concluded that she did not look like a wealthy socialite. Rather, she looked more like someone trying to use her looks to get ahead. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
“Do you seriously think you can be considered a guest here and demand to see the CEO without an appointment? Do you even know that our Angle Group’s CEO is worth billions? He doesn’t have time for someone like you,” the receptionist scoffed.
Being called a “nobody” almost made Sheena burst out laughing. Her net worth could probably leave the Angle Group’s CEO trailing far behind, yet this receptionist dared to look down on her.
Sheena could not be bothered with this rude employee and said in a serious tone, “Inform your superiors that I’m here. If they refuse to see me, I’ll take full responsibility for the consequences.”
The receptionist was about to retort, but Sheena’s sharp and icy gaze silenced her instantly.
“Alright! Remember what you just said!” The receptionist huffed. She then reported the situation to her superiors in an exaggerated manner. She could not wait to see Sheena being thrown out of the building.
However, her smile gradually froze as she looked at Sheena, her expression slowly turning into one of disbelief.
Sheena, seeing the receptionist’s expression, already knew what the conversation over the phone was about. Then, she sneered and asked, “Which floor?”
“The top floor. Twenty–seventh…”
Having obtained the information she wanted, Sheena pushed her luggage and confidently entered the elevator without looking back.
The receptionist stared at her receding figure, completely dumbfounded.
Who could that woman be to make Yuri Flores, the CEO’s assistant, speak so respectfully about her?
Could she be… the CEO’s lover?
No way! She had to spread this unbelievable gossip to the group chat right away!
Arriving at the top floor, Sheena walked to the CEO’s office. When she entered, the man sitting on the sofa approached her.
He wore a dark blue suit, exuding an air of elegance. His eyes even twinkled when he looked at Sheena.
“It’s been a while, Nana. Congratulations on the divorce,” the man said affectionately, clearly doting on Sheena.
“Howard?” Sheena’s eyes instantly reddened. She was pleasantly surprised. She had never expected the current CEO of the Angle Group to be none other than her own brother, Howard Lawson!
In an instant, she dropped her luggage and rushed into Howard’s arms. “Howard, did you miss me?”
She buried her head in Howard’s chest.
It had been six years since they last met, but she was still the same adorable little girl.
Howard chuckled and ruffled her hair. He truly adored his little sister and wanted to give her only the best.
“It’s good that you’re divorced now. In the Lawson family, you’re the apple of our eyes, the little princess of the Lawson brothers. How could we let the Freeman family mistreat you?”
Seeing his expression turn cold, Sheena quickly changed the subject. “Howard, I made a deal with Dad. He wants me to increase Angle’s performance by five percent within a year! You have to help me.”
Sheena waved her hand in an exaggerated manner in front of Howard’s eyes.
Howard led her to sit on the sofa and replied, “Five percent may be a bit challenging for you, but Dad also ordered me not to help you cheat. I can only assist you, but the final decision is yours to make.”
Sheena’s expression turned dark immediately.
Who was Howard? Well, this man controlled about half of the entertainment industry, and the entire industry would follow his order with just a snap of his fingers. Not only that, but the entertainment companies under him had also expanded their businesses overseas.
With just one phone call, he could make Angle Group, a talent management company, grow by ten percent.
Sheena could not believe that Albert had even anticipated that she might try to cheat!
He was giving her no way out!
Seeing that she was pulling a long face, Howard smiled and pinched Sheena’s soft cheek. “Silly girl, it’s good for you to gain more experience. Since you’re here, it’s time for me, the temporary CEO, to step
down.”
“There’s no rush,” Sheena stopped him.
Howard was puzzled. “Why?”
Sheena rubbed her chin, looking like she was in deep thought. 1
After a while, she winked at Howard mischievously. “I have a fantastic suggestion. Care to listen?”
Howard stared at her sly, expression, completely captivated.
An hour later, the two of them reached an agreement.
An urgent notice was sent to all Angle Group employees within five minutes.
The content was about the imminent arrival of a mysterious new talent manager!
