Ulric rarely spoke in such a commanding tone in private, indicating that his decision was final.
“Thank you, Mr. Walters.”
…
Upon arriving at the W Group headquarters, Ulric headed straight to the conference room.
Rosalind felt like he was immersed in meetings all day long.
Carrying her bag, she sought out Cedric directly. As she approached him, she suddenly realized why his voice sounded so familiar. Wasn’t he the one who blocked her at the door when she went to Wuwood City to retrieve the contract from Ulric?
“Miss Ruell.” Cedric responded to her without much surprise, as if he already knew who she was.
“You don’t have to be so formal, just call me Rosalind!” She felt that a more casual approach would be appropriate, considering that she was here for further training and to learn from Cedric.
Her words made Cedric feel somewhat flattered.
“No, Mr. Walters personally asked me to mentor you, so I’ll continue to call you Miss Ruell.”
Cedric had been with Ulric for many years and had never seen any close female associates around him. Even with Chief Lawyer Sirena, he maintained a professional distance. Now, suddenly, he was breaking his own rules to ask him to look after this girl, indicating that she must have a special status.
At least in Mr. Walters’ eyes, she was someone very special.
Unable to argue with him and unable to explain her relationship with Ulric clearly, Rosalind could only nod. “Then I’ll be relying on you! I haven’t been in the industry for long and might need more of your guidance. But I can take criticism well, if I make any mistakes, please point them out, and I will definitely correct them.”
Cedric found himself pleasantly surprised by Rosalind’s humble introduction, especially considering her close relationship with the boss. It was quite unexpected.
When he received Mr. Walters’ instructions, he had assumed she must be some kind of spoiled princess! After all, she had Mr. Walters’ backing in the company.
This significantly improved his impression of Rosalind.
“Shall I take you to familiarize yourself with the project department? And show you your office?”
“Sure, thank you.”
Following Cedric around the headquarters, Rosalind gained a general sense of the layout. When she stood on the observation deck on the top floor of the W Group building, looking at the luxurious architecture and the entire Northville City map related to W Group, she truly admired Ulric.
It wasn’t just about his wealth, it was more about his capability and serious attitude towards work.
Even with so many assets and such a high status, he still worked on the front lines, busy every day, and worked overtime more frequently than she did!
No wonder he had been repeatedly recognized as an Outstanding Young Entrepreneur by the state, he was truly a model in the industry.
After the tour, Rosalind immediately delved into her work.
The work atmosphere at W Group was much more intense than at Prosperity Holdings. Almost no one looked up from their screens, everyone was focused on their tasks.
By the end of the day, although she was tired, she felt inexplicably satisfied!
As the workday came to an end, Rosalind organized her desk and confirmed tomorrow’s flight to Jingtown City with Cedric. Just as she was about to leave, Ulric’s call came right on time.
She even suspected that Ulric had installed surveillance in her office.
“Meet me at our morning meeting spot.”
“Are you finished with work as well?”
“Yes, I have an overseas project meeting at 1 AM that I can attend from home.”
Rosalind responded and hung up the phone, heading straight to the underground parking lot. She initially had a smile on her face but noticed Sirena standing next to Ulric from a distance.
Well…
Now that she was at the headquarters, scenes like this would probably be common.
