Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade by Mr. Adeel

Chapter 29 Secretary Number Two

The next morning, Alex sent Stanley to school before heading back to the office himself.

Kate’s flight was scheduled to arrive at 10.30 am. It was still carly, so Alex planned to head to the airport at 10 am sharp.

He had just sat down in his chair when Jack rushed into the room.

“Mr. Jefferson, we’ve found the perfect candidate for the position of Secretary Number Two. She’ll be arriving in the afternoon.” As he spoke, Jack handed him a resume.

Alex was the chairman of a Fortune 500 company, so one secretary wouldn’t be able to handle all the workload.

The resume belonged to Kate Sutton. A cold smile appeared on Alex’s face as he glanced through it.

He was right, after all, Kate was in Nebula City for him.

“I know this woman. She’s a very talented person, and it’ll be a huge waste of her abilities if we hire her as a secretary. Transfer her to the Marketing Department.”

Puring down the resume, Alex turned to Jack and said, “Give her the position of Assistant Manager in the Marketing Department.”

Unfortunately, the Marketing Department already had a Manager. Alex thought it was a pity or he would have given her that position otherwise.

Kate was trying to get close to him, but he wasn’t going to give her the opportunity.

Jack nodded. “Alright.” Seeing that Alex had no further orders, he left the room to make the necessary arrangements.

As soon as Jack left, Jessica stepped into the room.

“Mr. Jefferson, Madison Zucker wants to meet you. I haven’t promised her anything yet. Will you be able to fit her into your schedule?”

Alex turned her down immediately. “Nope, I don’t have time. I might not even be in the office for the next two days.”

He knew Madison Zucker wanted to treat him to a meal because she wanted to rub shoulders with him. However, he had no time to engage in theatrics with her..

He knew the unspoken rules of the entertainment industry. However, he wanted to send the message to his employees, that he only cared about results and would not regard those who engaged in those unspoken rules in the industry.

The talented ones rose up in the industry, while the lousy ones sank back into relative obscurity for the rest of their careers. The friendly competition formed the basis for the growth of their company. On the other hand, those who engaged in underhanded methods only dragged the company’s name through the

mud.

Seeing how quickly Alex rejected Madison Zucker, Jessica couldn’t help but feel a little happy.
