Chapter 28
After returning, Charmaine called Karlina and learned from Karlina that CEO Maverick and CEO Riley had been arrested.
Karlina asked. "In the end what happened?"
“I talked to CEO Maverick, but I wasn't careful and was overheard by CEO Derek of Tibble Group. He tied us up. I guess CEO Maverick and CEO Riley were taken away by Derek.”
Charmaine was suspicious and continued. “But I don't know, if he arrested CEO Maverick and CEO Riley, why did he release me and CEO Troy?"
Karlina was silent for a moment.
“I'll let someone investigate this, you just need to continue following that woman.”
"Yes."
Hanging up the phone, Charmaine turned around and hugged the man next to her.
The man, in his mid-forties, hugged her tightly to his chest. “I think the new director is quite good, why don't you like her?”
Charmaine listened and pushed him away.
“You said it well before you said you would help me get promoted, but in the end, you were stopped by that woman. If she weren't beautiful, would you care about things like this?”
Thinking of something, she continued speaking. “And my car, you're rich but you gave me a used BMW, am I that cheap in your heart?”
For a moment, the man didn't know how to refute, so he used sweet words to comfort her. “In my heart, you are the most beautiful girl, because a while ago, my finances were not abundant, just wait until I have a lot of money, and I'll let you choose the best car."
Charmaine snorted twice, looking dissatisfied.
“If you want the director position, at the conference tomorrow I will find a way to catch her, then you just need to say a few more sentences, she is new, she definitely won't know the answer, she will embarrassed in front of everyone, the director position will sooner or later belong to you. Ok?”
Charmaine said happily. "Great."
The man nodded, his eyes filled with desire. “So, you quickly reward me?”
Charmaine blushed and sulked. "Hater."
---
Early the next morning.
Charmaine drove, in high spirits, to work at the company.
Before the start of the conference, Bertha coincidentally shared the elevator with her, ironically. “Oh my, your face is not bad, it seems like you slept very well last night.”
Charmaine glanced contemptuously at Bertha. “That's right, I sleep better than you. Last night you… I'm afraid you stayed up all night without sleeping?”
Last night, she thought that Bertha was raped by Director Maverick and Director Riley, but unfortunately, Derek caught them, so they were taken away by the police, so they didn't have a chance to show the video to her or Director Troy.
She of course used her logic to reason, her eyes looking at Bertha were even more contemptuous.
They are all people's toys, what right does Bertha have to be arrogant towards her?
Charmaine thought, full of arrogance, raised her chin, approached Bertha, and said. “Miss. Bertha, I would also like to make friends with you, but unfortunately, you are about to be kicked out of this position, I'm afraid we won't be able to work together in the future.”
Bertha sneered, glancing at her like a fool. "Right?"
The elevator is here.
Bertha withdrew her sight and walked out first.
Charmaine looked at Charmaine's arrogant figure, she gritted her teeth. “Let me see how you will cry in a moment.”
Every month Angle will hold a meeting, mainly to create an overall plan for ongoing projects.
From the general manager level up, they will sit in the front half of the table, and employees like Charmaine will sit in the back half of the table, Charmaine is about five people away from Bertha.
The directors, leaders, and other employees had almost arrived. When Venn walked in, the meeting officially began.
The people in charge of the departments took turns speaking. Charmaine felt bored, waiting for Bertha's turn to speak.
She clenched her palms, her eyes growing more and more excited.
However…
She accidentally glanced at the director's area. She discovered that she couldn't see that familiar figure. In fact... the company didn't even arrange a seat for him, the director's area was already filled with people.
Why is this?
Charmaine frowned. She turned around and met Bertha's eyes. Bertha curled her lips meaningfully and withdrew her gaze.
That smile that looked cold and seductive, in Charmaine's eyes was provocative.
Charmaine's intuition told her that this matter was related to Bertha.
She quietly asked the person next to her a question. “Do you know why director Brian didn't come to the meeting today?”
The other person was stunned, she immediately waved her hand. “I don't know Director Brian, don't ask me.”
Huh?
This reaction… why did Charmaine feel like something was wrong?
Charmaine didn't believe it and turned her head to look to the left, the employee on the left didn't wait for her to ask and immediately waved her hand. "I do not know."
Charmaine was extremely confused.
At the meeting, it was Bertha's turn to find out. "According to a recent survey, it shows that the script of the movie "Love is a Lie" is very popular, after we reach an agreement with Kirjani Artist Company, Tony will play the male lead, while the supporting male... ”
"Wait a minute."
Charmaine suddenly interrupted Bertha's words and asked. “When did this happen? Why I do not know. Furthermore, we had a clear discussion last night…”
Bertha interrupted. “What did we discuss yesterday? With whom?"
"This..."
Charmaine was speechless, last night she didn't know why Maverick and Riley were arrested, if she said this, everything would be revealed.
She felt Bertha was setting her up, so she decided to ignore this question and continue questioning Bertha. "When did Miss Bertha reach an agreement with JK Holdings regarding the performers? Why haven't I heard about this?”
“Do I have to inform you of everything I do?”
Bertha smiled coldly, looking at Charmaine with cold and sharp eyes. “What are you?”
Charmaine was stunned, she didn't think Bertha would say that directly.
At this moment, everyone looked at her simultaneously, waiting for her to lose face.
Charmaine bit her lip, her aura also weakened, she pretended to be hurt and spoke respectfully. “Sorry, I thought you were going to negotiate with us.”
What do you think?
