Rosalind never dreamed that she would step into W Group again.
Although she was employed by Eastsun Corporation and wore the badge of a project director from Eastsun, her office had been relocated to this building.
Fortunately, Mr. Wong had also been called back to W Group, so at least she had a familiar face around.
Unlike Rosalind’s reluctance, Mr. Wong was extremely excited. As soon as he saw Rosalind in W Group’s waiting room, his face lit up and he started chatting enthusiastically.
“Last month, a fortune teller told me I was going to get rich and have good luck. It turns out to be true! I can’t believe I’m working at W Group!”
Rosalind forced a smile and nodded perfunctorily.
“You’ve heard of W Group’s president Ulric, right? He’s like a legend in the business world. I wonder if we’ll see him today!” Mr. Wong was practically vibrating with excitement, ready to snap a photo of Ulric at any moment.
Anyone who didn’t know better would think he was here to meet a celebrity, not to work.
Of course, Rosalind understood him. When she worked at W Group’s subsidiary, everyone around her hoped to catch a glimpse of Ulric in person.
Rosalind used to want that too, but now she didn’t want to think about it.
Mr. Wong, unaware of Rosalind’s history with Ulric, continued chattering in her ear. “Do you think W Group’s investment in Wayer City is a precursor to an acquisition? Otherwise, why would they act so suddenly? They must have a reason for spending so much money!”
Seeing his enthusiasm, Rosalind felt it would be rude to remain silent.
So she pretended to ponder and then nodded. “Hmm, you might be right.”
“Maybe they value the talent at Eastsun Corporation? None of our employees were laid off; we were all integrated into W Group!”
“Could be…”
“Forget it, no point in guessing! From now on, we’re part of W Group. I’ll work hard and aim for a permanent position here. It’d be amazing if I could work directly under Mr. Walters.” Mr. Wong finished speaking and noticed Rosalind’s dazed expression. He took out his phone, typed something quickly, and then showed her the screen. “Have you ever seen what W Group’s president Ulric looks like? You seem too calm!”
“…”
“Look! This is Ulric’s photo. Handsome, right? Even as a guy, I think he’s incredibly good-looking! His features are more refined than Lion’s!”
Ulric’s photo appeared on Rosalind’s screen unexpectedly.
Startled, she instinctively leaned back. “Uh, I’ve seen his pictures before.”
“And you’re not smitten?”
Rosalind smiled awkwardly. “…I’m married.”
Mr. Wong almost rolled his eyes at her. “Rosalind, you’re such a hopeless romantic! Always mentioning your marriage! But even if you were single, you wouldn’t have any connection with Ulric.”
Just as he finished speaking, a tall figure walked into the waiting room.
The man wore a black suit and stood there with his usual elegance and gentlemanly demeanor.
Mr. Wong was about to nudge Rosalind and tell her that Ulric had actually arrived when Ulric’s voice interrupted them.
He said, “Rosalind, come to my office.”
