Chapter 10

Unqualified?

Matthew raised an eyebrow. He had come here to work to get to know Rachel better, all because of Fred's invitation. Being labeled as unqualified by a mere manager was the last thing he had expected. "You might not have gotten this clear-"

Larry cut him off. "I don't need an explanation, and you don't need to give one. I'm the manager of the logistics department. I have to oversee hundreds of employees.

"I'm incredibly busy and don't have time to waste on a driver like you. Get lost!"

Matthew felt his suppressed anger surge up again. "Watch your mouth. I don't want trouble, but don't push me."

Larry scoffed. "I'm the manager here! I supervise dozens of drivers. Why should I show respect to a mere driver like you? Who do you think you are?

"And what can you do even if I push you? Let me be clear! A criminal record doesn't affect your job here, but I'll fire you anyway. What can you do about it? I'll say it again. Get lost-" Before Larry could finish the word "lost", Matthew slapped him across the face.

"Show some respect!" Matthew demanded.

The sudden slap left Larry dumbfounded. He stared at Matthew in disbelief while clutching his face. Though he wanted to fight back, he hesitated at the sight of Matthew's muscular build. Through gritted teeth, Larry spat, "How dare you hit me? Are you out of your mind? Just wait; I'll have the security beat the crap out of you!"

Larry then pulled out his phone to call the head of security.

He pointed accusingly at Matthew and said, "Just wait and see! You're doomed!"

Matthew responded coldly, "I planned on keeping a low profile and simply working as a chauffeur here. But since you're making things difficult, let me set the record straight. "I'm Rachel's boyfriend. She's the president of this company!"
