Chapter 20 There’s Something Wrong With Them

“That’s right, all you need to do is sign this.”

Seeing the surprised look on Willow’s face, Miranda wondered how shocked Willow would be if she knew her husband’s real identity.

“Great. I’ll sign it right away,” Willow responded excitedly.

Miranda spoke up after Willow had signed, “We extend a warm welcome to you, Ms. Stewart. From now on, you’re a part of Southlake Corporation. If there are no exceptional circumstances, you can begin your work tomorrow.”

“Alright. Thank you, Ms. Barton!” Willow simply couldn’t contain her excitement.

It looked like Caspian didn’t deceive her. He must have a really good relationship with that classmate of

his.

“You’re very welcome, Ms. Stewart. We’re delighted to have someone like you to join Southlake Corporation.”

It was only a matter of time before Willow became the chairman of the company. There was no way Miranda dared to be uncourteous toward her.

“You exaggerate, Ms. Barton. I’ll do my absolute best to excel in my job.” Willow was a little embarrassed to be praised by the vice president of the company.

“Starting tomorrow, all external cooperative projects of Southlake Corporation will be under your management. However, the CEO has made it clear that the Stewart family is not on the list of potential collaborators.

“Any agreements to be established with the Stewart family must be approved by the CEO personally,” Miranda instructed.

“Understood.” Willow was a little puzzled. Why had the Stewart family been excluded from the list of potential collaborators? Has someone in the family offended the CEO?

However, she didn’t dwell on it for too long. After all, the most joyous thing for her today was becoming the project director of Southlake Corporation, which was the leading company in Southlake City.

“Alright, you can come to the company tomorrow at 9:00 am to complete your onboarding process,” Miranda said.

“Thank you, I’ll go back to prepare for now. See you tomorrow!” Willow replied before turning around to
