More importantly, Donald's demeanor was nothing like a boss, let alone a multi-millionaire.
He appeared very lazy and casual, just like the low-level employees Amelia had seen.
“Mr. Campbell—”
Donald glanced at her and said, “Please, don't. Samson has no choice but to call me that because weare on the same level. However, I was assigned by the headquarters to assist you, and my position isnone other than a manager. Therefore, you can tone the respect down a little.” novelbin
Amelia flashed him a wry smile.
How can I go casual with you when you're indeed the vice president of the company?
“There's something I don't understand, Mr. Campbell. May I ask?”
“Go ahead.”
“What's so special about Atlas Residence? Why would the headquarters send you here to help meout?”
Amelia had been working in the industry for years and had encountered many bizarre things.
She was worried that there might be a special reason why Donald was appointed to work with her onthe project.
A battle between the gods would make ordinary humans suffer. I'm just a small fry in the company anddon't want to be implicated if anything happens.
Donald seemed to be able to read Amelia's mind. He scratched his face and replied, “There's nothingspecial about it. Perhaps I have had too much free time recently, so they sent me here to help you.Don't overthink things, and just focus on your job. By the way, don't reveal my identity to others.”
Amelia nodded. While the two were chatting, they had already arrived at the unit undergoingrenovation.
Although Amelia was the nominal leader of the renovation team, it was actually led by ChesterHorsecraft, her subordinate.
He took advantage of the fact that the workers were trained by him and refused to heed Amelia'sorders in most matters.
As a project manager, Amelia could only give suggestions instead of exercising her full authority as therightful supervisor.
Anyhow, she was used to it by now because she had faced the same issue in almost all of the projectsshe had worked on.
If this were during ancient times, she would be regarded as the army overseer, a marionette who tookinstructions from the headquarters and had no actual power.
On the other hand, a person like Chester would serve as the general.
These workers are like his soldiers, so why would they not listen to him?
As soon as Donald and Amelia entered the unit, they saw Chester with a cigarette tucked behind hisear, playing cards with a group of workers.
The entire room was filled with smoke, and there was also a broken beer bottle on the floor.
It was not the first time Amelia was greeted by such a scene.
Immediately, she told Chester, “Mr. Horsecraft, the proposal has been approved, so we can start therenovations now.”
“Wait a second, let me finish this round,” Chester responded half-heartedly without turning his head.
Amelia was slightly embarrassed, especially when Donald was standing right beside her. She wasworried that Donald would have a bad impression of her afterward.
Amelia cleared her throat and proceeded to make a second attempt. “Mr. Horsecraft, the constructionprogress today is super urgent. Why don't you stop for a while and let us discuss the details?”
“D*mn it! Didn't I ask you to wait a moment? Why do you keep talking?”
Then, Chester chucked his cards aside and bellowed, “You dare tell me that today's progress isurgent? We agreed to come at ten and commence work at eleven. Take a look at the time now! What
time is it? Huh?”
“We were delayed because the client had some problems with the proposal. Nobody wanted that tohappen, and we've tried our best to resolve it.”
“A problem came up on your side, but how does that have anything to do with me? It speaks volumesabout your capability.”
