Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 612

 

Chapter 612 Let Her Decide

Amelia had been busy at work all day. Her hands were practically going numb when it was time to clock off. The company had received a huge order a few days ago, so everyone had to work extra hours to complete their tasks. Amelia actually set a new personal record that day by creating thirty drawings consecutively, and she did everything beautifully.

She sent her work to Shane via e-mail, and when it was time to clock off, he made his way to the design department. Before anyone could leave, he clapped his hands and announced, “Hi, may I have your attention for a few minutes?”

Many were packing their things at the time, but they put their bags down and turned their attention to Shane right away.

“Amelia sent me the drawings that were requested by our client. The client’s company representative called us today to tell us they were happy with the work and praised Amelia endlessly for her talent. Given how gifted she is and how humble she behaves, I, as the boss, don’t feel right keeping her talent hidden. That is why I have decided to promote her to be the director of the design department. It will take effect next year. Anyone who has any complaints can step forward now,” announced Shane.

Everyone clapped, but Rory did so half-heartedly. She seemed to have mixed feelings about the way everyone had Amelia surrounded.

 

“Congratulations, Amelia. We’re all hoping you can be our director one day because we can tell how talented you are. I believe that, with your leadership, we can rise to a new height,” said an employee of the department. Everyone else chimed in.

Amelia nodded shyly.

 

It took her a while before she managed to free herself from her overenthusiastic colleagues. After that, she approached Shane and sighed. “Shane, you did that too impulsively. Mr. Moore has worked here longer than I have and has more experience. Everyone else kept quiet because my husband is Oscar Clinton, but I’m sure they’ll gossip behind my back. They will claim that politics is the only reason I got that promotion, and that is not something I want.”

Shane smiled and replied, “You don’t have to worry about that. Mr. Moore is actually the one who recommended you for the position. He said that you are extremely gifted and that he will be reassigned to the headquarters next year where his career will progress even better.”

Amelia stared suspiciously. “Are you telling me the truth?”

“There is no need to lie to you about this. I will say this, though. Mr. Clinton issued some instructions to human resources. However, I don’t think it matters because at the end of the day, Mr. Moore will have a better future ahead, and you will have a clear path to get your promotion,” said Shane.

Amelia couldn’t help frowning at that.

“What’s wrong? Are you upset about him butting in?”

“No, I just think that I am too inexperienced. I don’t think I can grow enough to be a good director next year.”

“Really? You doubt yourself that much?”

Amelia simply smiled in response.

“Don’t worry, I have complete faith in you. All you need to do is work well as the director, and anyone who is upset with you will be convinced that you are the right person for that job. So, are you up for it? Or are you too chicken to accept that challenge?” taunted Shane to bait Amelia.

“You’ve already made an official announcement, so it’s not like there’s anything I can do about it, anyway.”

“That’s the spirit! I look forward to the day you thrive.”
