Love and Devotion No Longer His to Claim by Dream Fish

Chapter 213

Unexpectedly, Angela's casual remarks left Logan at a loss for how to respond.

If he were to insist on firing the receptionist now, it would seem like he was the one at fault.

Losing against Angela after his first move left him feeling bitter, though he kept his expression neutral.

"Ms. Graham, you're too kind to the employees. Well then, let's head in. Oh, what an unfortunate coincidence the CEO's personal elevator is out of service today, so we'll have to squeeze in with the other employees. I'm sure you won't mind, right?"

Logan put on a fake smile, his entire demeanor unwelcoming.

Angela's smile remained unchanged as she replied lightly, "Of course not, Mr. Chapman."

With that, she stepped into the company lobby first, and Logan quickly followed. This was the time the elevators were used the most during the day.

Out of the ten elevators, six were out of order, leaving only four functioning. The waiting areas in front of them were packed, with employees glancing anxiously at their watches as they waited in frustration.

There were less than five minutes left before the 8:40 am clock-in time, yet all four elevators were full. It was enough to make anyone anxious.
