"Hello, who are you looking for?" a receptionist approached and asked.

"I'm looking for Ze... Zion," Kelly said softly.

"Zi...?" The receptionist checked the computer. "We don't have any employee by that name in our records."

It was Zion's first day at work, and he hadn't completed the onboarding process yet, so the receptionist wouldn't be able to find him in the system.

However, during this morning's meeting, especially among the HR department staff, everyone had been made aware of who Zion was. Clearly, this receptionist was deliberately making things difficult for Kelly.

"Oh, really?" Kelly fell silent for a moment before speaking again. "He's the grandson of your chairman, Mr. Wade. Today is his first day back at the company- you must have seen him, right?"

The receptionist hesitated for a moment before responding expressionlessly, "Sorry, but during work hours, unauthorized visitors are not allowed inside. That's company policy."

Kelly immediately understood-whether at the reception desk, in security, or in other positions within the company, it was likely that Clarissa's people had already infiltrated every level.

Clarissa was smart. In the two years that Zev had been absent, she must have worked tirelessly to replace key personnel within the Lockhart Group to solidify her control over the company.

"Miss, I'm sorry, but since the person you're looking for isn't here, please leave." The receptionist spoke curtly, making it clear that Kelly was not welcome.

That morning, Clarissa had given strict instructions-if anyone came looking for Zev, especially a woman, they were not to be allowed inside the company under any circumstances.

Clarissa was indeed clever. She had anticipated that Zev might have Kelly come over, intending to publicly announce his marriage in front of the entire company and put her in an embarrassing position.
