Contract Marriage With Mysterious President novel Chapter 45

After applying the ointment, Richard became very serious. Now he needed to talk about what happened in the morning with Amy.

“So, tell me. What exactly happened in the morning? Why did Zoe say that you didn’t respect her and even refused her arrangement?” Richard was sitting close to Amy, which made Amy feel a little anxious.

“Well, in the morning...” Amy told Richard everything in detail.

After all, she already told the truth. If Richard didn’t believe her, there was no point in arguing.

“Even though you have a problem with her arrangement, you can talk to her politely. You don’t have to scold her.” Richard said.

“Mr. Carter, I swear to God. I didn’t scold her at all, and I am a nice and polite lady. When have I ever scolded anyone?” Amy raised her voice, feeling wronged.

“Fine, I will look into this. But I’m worried about you since you always get yourself in trouble. Now, pack all your stuff and work here then. It is very spacious here.” Richard frowned.

What? Working under his watch! Amy heard this and thought she was going to die.

“No, don’t bother, Mr. Carter. I didn’t make a mistake. I came to the company very early. I even cleaned the office. I had no idea why this happened, and I didn’t say anything impolite to Zoe. I don’t even know why Zoe picked on me.”

Amy was trying her best to stay from working near Richard, because it was a lot better working downstairs. Although there were some unfriendly people downstairs, it was merrier to be working around many colleagues. If she worked near Richard and faced his stern face every day, she would be living in the hell.

“Look at you now. I just made a proposal and you retorted with so many words now. You just refused Zoe’s arrangement and you still want to go back there? No way, you must come here, and I will be in charge of your work personally.” Richard didn’t give Amy the choice to refuse.

Now Amy thought she was doomed. Working upstairs near Mr. Carter, she would be very painful and suffering Richard’s harsh words every minute.

“Now you may leave. You still have much work to do. Don’t be lazy,” Richard said quite calmly.

Now Amy had no choice. She had to go downstairs to get her stuff.

Once Amy walked into the Secretary Department, she heard Zoe talking happily, asserting that Mr. Carter would take her side and Amy was fired.

Seeing Amy walking in, everyone suddenly became quiet. No one was talking and all turned to Amy curiously.

While Amy didn’t say anything. She just walked to her seat and began to pack.

“Humph, look at yourself. I told you not to step in my way. But you won’t listen. You just got your job back and now you got fired. How are you feeling now?” Zoe walked towards Amy and said very complacently.

While Amy focused on packing unhappily, without answering Zoe.

“Next time, learn to be smart and more careful. You should know who you are dealing with or someone will laugh at you if you get fired again.” Zoe said loudly on purpose. She wanted to humiliate Amy before everyone.

“Who is Zoe?” Someone showed up and asked.

“It’s me and you are?” Zoe walked to the doorway. But she didn’t know who he was.

“I am Kent from Human Resources Department. Mr. Carter ordered that you should take over all work you gave Amy, and you should finish it before getting off work. If you can’t, you should resign. By the way, Mr. Carter ordered me to take some photos of the files for him. He wants to know the workload.”

The next minute, Kent walked in and came to Amy’s seat. He took some photos of all the files on Amy’s table.

“Kent, please listen to me. I can never finish all the work by myself in one day. It’s unreasonable. Mr. Carter shouldn’t give such an order. Do we have some misunderstanding?” Knowing that Mr. Carter gave this order, Zoe was frightened at once.

“What are you saying? As a senior and experienced employee, you couldn’t even finish these work yourself, but you ordered Amy to do it in one day. Zoe, now I’m telling you. You have violated the basic principle of HD Group: We cannot bully or oppress a new employee. By the way, Mr. Carter has faith that you are able to finish all the work yourself. So, good luck.” Kent said calmly and left quickly.

The next second, Kent stopped and turned around, “Amy, speed up. Mr. Carter is waiting.”

“Yes, I got it.” Amy was happy now. It seemed that Mr. Carter was very nice and brilliant. He trusted her and helped her out of trouble. Well, now she had a better impression of Mr. Carter than before.

“Didn’t you get fired, Amy?” Zoe felt confused.

“No, I didn’t. Mr. Carter thinks that I am a nice and kind person, so he ordered me to work upstairs under his direct supervision.” Amy walked past Zoe, holding all her stuff.

Holy shit! Zoe went furious. What was wrong with Richard? Why did he defend Amy? Did he still love Allison or not? Then she took out her phone, planning to ask Allison for help. Allison was the only one who could help her now.

While Amy went to Richard’s office with all her stuff. She put all her stuff on the desk.

While she was organizing, she felt like that something was missing in this office.

All the colleagues in the Secretary Department were female, and they all decorated their space with some flowers.

But Richard’s office was very huge in just two colors: black and white. The wall was white, the floor was white, and the furniture was black.

People would feel dull and vapid here.

Amy sat down and took a look, finding that Richard was very busy with his table full of piles of files.

Only God knew whether he felt tired and stressed when he looked at all those files. But it was true that a man focused on working was the most handsome.

Richard was very handsome. His prominent nose, soft lips, and his black hair. He was even more handsome than some superstars!

“How much longer will you stare at me? You’d better hurry up. Because now I have some work for you!” Richard didn’t even look up, and he already noticed that Amy was staring at him. What he said made Amy embarrassed and blush.
