Female Novel
Chapter 40: Tell Her My Exact Words
All successful businesses should be based on the idea of a win-win scenario.
Only when people maximize the benefits of each other could they reach a consensus on the finalcooperation.
And the reason why Reynolds Group was willing to cooperate with the Veyron Corp.
was that they believed that both companies could benefit from this project.
Thus, Patricia thought that without having obtained any benefits, the Reynolds Group wouldn't easilygive up the project that would bring them huge profits unless they had another objective.
But what on earth did they want? She couldn't figure it out.
She had to admit that the reform plans mentioned in the project were unique and original.
In other words, if this project was successful, with the influence gained from it and the strong support ofthe Reynolds Group, the Veyron Corp.
would be able to make rapid progress and would soon claim a place in the whole of China for itself.
Just as Patricia's thoughts were becoming muddled, Jayson rushed in again.
Raising her head, she saw Jayson return, red in the face.
This made her recall his embarrassed expression when he ran out not moments earlier.
With a smug look on her face, she smiled and said, "Jayson, what brings you back here? And why isyour face so red? Were you kissed by a girl? And if so, you should be the one rejoicing!"
Her words made Jayson even more embarrassed.
His face was becoming more flushed by the second.
The corners of his mouth twitched.
He rolled his eyes and wondered what prompted her to say that.
He was a tall and sturdy man, after all.
It sounded weird when she described him as such.
She even said that he was kissed by a girl! Did he look like a playboy? Patricia fixed her bright andbeautiful eyes on Jayson.
Jayson kept silent, perhaps because he was shy or because he was nervous.
Seeing Jayson like this made Patricia feel like a bad person for teasing him.
She was almost thirty years old, but here she was, flirting with a young man.
If Zac discovered this, he would be very furious! Shaking her head, she put aside all things related toZac and thought she was useless and silly.
How could she think of that bastard? It must have been because she was given this project related tothe Reynolds Group.
Patricia looked at Jayson, but she was so lost in thought that she didn't pay him any attention.
Noticing Patricia's absent-mindedness, Jayson said, "I forgot one thing just now.The president said thateveryone in the company is at your disposal.You don't need to ask for his permission to utilize them."
After hearing what Jayson said, Patricia snapped back to reality.
Focusing on Jayson, she smiled.
When Jayson noticed her gaze upon him, he couldn't help but blush even more.
"Miss Sampson, why are you looking at me like that? Is there dust on my face?"
Jayson asked in confusion, touching his handsome face.
Patricia shook her head but kept beaming as she looked upon Jayson.
Ignoring his question, she asked one of her own.
"Did the president really say that I can order anyone to do my bidding?"
Jayson nodded swiftly.
"Yes!"
"Are you sure?"
Patricia asked again.
"Yes, I'm sure!"
Jayson nodded again, this time with a more sincere attitude.
"Well, in that case, I want you to work for me!"
Patricia said, pointing at Jayson before continuing to peruse the documents in front of her.
"Me?"
Jayson pointed at himself with disbelief in his eyes.
Patricia, busy with her reading, ignored his question.
Noticing this, Jayson simply nodded and murmured, "Okay!"
"If you are unwilling to work with me, feel free to go and tell the president!"
Patricia said provocatively as she glanced at Jayson.
"I have no objection to it,"
Jayson responded, rubbing his nose.
He refused to talk to the president about this lest he be scolded.
He wasn't looking for trouble.
Besides, the president was relying on Patricia to help them out of this sticky situation.
So, as a secretary, how dare he object to her wishes? "Well, since you have no problem with this, youcan start by contacting Zac's secretary and telling her that I want to invite Zac to dinner."
Patricia calmly said, head down while she mulled over the documents in front of her.
"Okay, I'll go and do that now!"
Jayson responded and then exited her office.
It seemed that Patricia had moved on since the divorce.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to act so naturally.
So, it seemed like the president had made the right choice.
Patricia was undoubtedly the only person who could handle this matter.
A few minutes later, Jayson returned to Patricia's office and stated with a worried look, "Miss Sampson,I've contacted Mr.Reynolds's secretary, but I was told that Mr.Reynolds is busy!"
When he'd made the call, he'd heard Zac's voice in the background, but the secretary insisted that Zacwas not in the company.
Nowadays, it was really hard to ask others for help! "Okay, I understand!"
Patricia uttered without looking at Jayson.
"Miss Sampson, what should we do?"
Jayson stood to the side as he didn't know what to do.
He didn't know what the president would think if he found this out.
Maybe he'd be fired in a matter of days! "Tell him that if he is an upstanding man, he should come outand meet me.Of course, if he is a coward and doesn't dare to have dinner with a woman, I will not forcehim!"
Patricia said, raising her eyes and seeing Jayson standing there uneasily.
When Jayson heard her words, he was so surprised that his eyes almost popped out of his head.
'Does Miss Sampson expect me to talk to Zac in such a fashion? Can I really say that? If I say that,then Mr.Reynolds would be extremely furious!’ "Is there anything else?"novelbin
Noticing that Jayson had no intention of leaving, Patricia looked up at him and raised her eyebrows.
"Miss Sampson, how should I convey what you've just said to Mr.Reynolds's secretary?" Jayson askedworriedly.
"Tell her my exact words!"
After saying that, Patricia lowered her head again and continued reading the documents.
The corners of Jayson's mouth twitched.
He gave a silent thumbs-up to Patricia, turned around, and left.
Ten minutes later, Jayson entered Patricia's office again! "Miss Sampson, Mr.Reynolds has agreed tohave dinner with you.Seven o'clock tonight, at the Glory Hotel!"
When Jayson said that, his eyes were shining with excitement and admiration.
"Okay.Got it! You'll be going with me tonight!"
Patricia replied and continued scanning the papers in her hands.
"Miss Sampson..."
Hearing her words, Jayson was a little surprised but thought it seemed reasonable like a request, so hestopped speaking.
‘It is indeed not appropriate for Miss Sampson to attend the appointment alone.
Although Mr.Reynolds is her ex-husband, as her temporary subordinate, I should show moreconsideration toward her.’ "Did you have anything else to say?"
Patricia asked in confusion, casting a glance at Jayson.
"No.Nothing else!" Jayson shook his head.
"I'll go out now!"
