Chapter 220 The Contract Given to Her by Global Nexus Corporation Is Unusual

"This is the boss's office, but he hasn't been in the company these past few days. I've been back for two days and haven't seen him," Lauren said as she knocked on the office door.

It was company policy to knock before entering, regardless of whether anyone was inside. So when Lauren reached for the doorknob, ready to push the door open, someone inside turned the handle.

Lauren was shocked, thinking the boss had returned unexpectedly. But when the door opened, both Tiffany and Lauren were equally surprised.

The person who opened the door wasn't the boss of Global Nexus Corporation, but someone they both knew well.

Edmund saw their stunned expressions and smiled. "What's the matter? Surprised to see me?"

"What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be in Harmony City?" Lauren frowned, clearly not pleased with Edmund's presence.

Tiffany observed the two of them. Their relationship seemed complicated, not like typical colleagues. It was more like enemies ready to stab each other in the back.

And Tiffany's guess was correct. In Global Nexus Corporation, to climb the ranks and gain more power, one had to impress the boss. Opportunities weren't given to everyone, and to stand out, one had to push hard.

Lauren and Edmund were two such people, constantly competing against each other. Every encounter was a chance to exchange barbs or set traps for the other. The employees were used to their dynamic, though some thought they were a perfect match, like bickering lovers. But only Lauren and Edmund knew they saw each other as enemies, not potential partners.
