Forbidden Passion

Chapter 7 The Gossip

Phoebe put the neatly arranged things into a carton, which quickly filled up. She said, "The boss's mind is unfathomable, we just need to follow orders."

"But are you willing?" Carol asked softly.

Phoebe paused and restrained her smile.

Carol sympathized with her. "You've been with Mr. Reynolds for three years, I thought you two would have a future together. I didn't expect him to be so heartless..."

"Carol, be cautious with your words." Phoebe reminded her lightly, seeing that she still looked indignant. She sighed and picked up a manual, handing it to her. "These are some habits of Mr. Reynolds that I've recorded. Take a look for reference."

"Be careful not to touch his sensitive spot."

Carol eagerly took the document and flipped through it, but her face immediately fell. "Oh my, Mr. Reynolds has so many annoying habits. Phoebe, these past few years must have been really difficult for you." Phoebe patted her shoulder and picked up the box, walking out of the secretary's office and taking the elevator to the seventeenth floor.

Although QUEEN Entertainment is an independently operated subsidiary, their office is still located within the Reynolds Group building. Theodore had reserved an entire floor specifically for them to work in.

She reported to the HR department and completed all the necessary procedures. The HR manager, John, then led her to her office.

Compared to the secretary's office, her office was noticeably smaller, but it had everything she needed. There was a desk, a sofa, and good lighting. It was said that sunlight could be enjoyed from morning till evening. Phoebe was satisfied with her new office, the only drawback being the lack of a rest area. She could only take naps on the sofa.

"Phoebe, these documents are for the artists we are about to sign. From now on, you will be responsible for handling their contracts. Take a look at the information first." John brought over a stack of files and placed them on Phoebe's desk.
