He just wanted to give Rosalind, this sensitive woman who loved to disguise herself, everything he could offer, the very best.
Rosalind curved her lips slightly, looking at the president of W Group, who appeared cold and aloof to others, speaking such considerate and gentle words to her. She couldn’t describe the feeling in her heart!
She thought that even if her mother was right in the future and Ulric was just playing with her, this moment alone was enough!
She didn’t want to think deeply about anything else.
…
Sirena’s sudden resignation had a temporary impact on W Group’s legal department.
Several contract reviews were stuck in the legal department because no one dared to nod in place of Sirena, and those who took over her duties were extremely nervous.
If it weren’t for the overwhelming workload, he would have taken sick leave to avoid getting caught in the crossfire.
Everyone in W Group knew that Lawyer Reynolds had an unusual relationship with the president. Her resignation was almost universally believed to be due to Rosalind’s appearance, making Lawyer Reynolds jealous and causing her to act out!
In a few days, Lawyer Reynolds would be back.
“Knock knock.”
Cedric knocked on the president’s office door and then walked in, looking somewhat helpless. “Mr. Walters, the progress of contract reviews in the legal department is too slow. If the acquisition target causes any more complications during this time, it won’t be good.”
Ulric paused slightly at his words, his fingers holding the pen.
“Go to the legal department. If there are any more delays with the contracts, they will bear the consequences.”
Cedric didn’t speak, hesitating as if he wanted to say something but couldn’t.
Ulric stopped completely, his dark eyes glancing at him as he leaned back in his chair. “Speak your mind.”
“Um… I just wanted to ask if Lawyer Reynolds really resigned?”
“Check her resignation letter yourself in the HR department.”
“Mr. Walters, that’s not what I meant! I just wanted to say… will Lawyer Reynolds come back after some time? I’ve already heard several private discussions about this today. They all say that Lawyer Reynolds is just trying to get your attention, hoping you’ll coax her a bit and give her an excuse to come back! So now, no one in the legal department dares to truly replace Lawyer Reynolds.”
Ulric tapped his fingers lightly on the desk and then pulled his thin lips into a slight smile. “If no one dares to truly replace Sirena, then replace the entire legal department.”
“What?!” Cedric was stunned, thinking he had misheard.
“Go there personally and tell them that if there’s any more delay, I’ll dissolve W Group’s legal department and outsource it to an external law firm.”
There were plenty of lawyers in this world!
Would W Group be hindered by one Sirena?
After a few seconds of shock, Cedric nodded and softly said okay before leaving the office.
He knew Mr. Walters was serious this time! And the chances of Lawyer Reynolds coming back were almost zero.
Having been by Ulric’s side for so many years, this decision still surprised Cedric! After all, Lawyer Reynolds was only throwing a tantrum because of Rosalind. Resigning was just a way to show Ulric how important she was to W Group.
But now it had backfired…
Sirena intended to warn Ulric but didn’t expect him to cut off her escape route entirely without any sentimentality.
Cedric suddenly sighed, feeling a bit scared.
He realized how foolish he had been before, not noticing how much Mr. Walters cared about Rosalind… He even naively thought Mr. Walters was just acting out of old school friendship!
Now that he thought about it carefully, the signs were everywhere!
