My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

There was a long silence before I added, "The Roberts Group's auditing is important for these two companies. During this period, if something happened to either party, be it Alford Audit or Roberts Group, neither of them can escape from the blame."

"Director, I-" Kelsey wanted to say something.

Without giving her a chance to speak, I continued, "Take the documents back with you and doublecheck it. Make sure that there is no problem before you send it back to Hendrix's office for his review. Also, tell Alford Audit that if they wish to partner up with us, it needs to be a long term partnership. Of course, if this problem only involves you and Alford Audit, it will be much easier. Please deal with it on your own. Don't let it escalate to the point where the executives from both sides will have to sit down and discuss this together."

After making my point clear, I let her go. I wasn't a fool. Auditing was something that I was new to, but Hendrix saw that there was something wrong.

He didn't put the blame on me, but instead, he looked for Austin. That indicated that the matter was likely related to Austin. Deceptions, frame-ups, cheating, and such were ordinary in the workplace. Besides, Austin had always disliked me. It wouldn't be difficult for him to try to kick me out of the company. All he needed to do was just to find some loopholes in between to mess things up.

Kelsey was my subordinate, so she would be handling most of my stuff. If she acted selfishly, it'd be just a matter of time before I was forced to leave the company.
