Ice and Fire novel Chapter 92

Cherry didn't want to make the atmosphere depressing. She pretended to be cheerful, and said to her son, "Joe, from now on I will work hard, and you are supposed to study hard. Let's cheer up! Okay?"

"Of course, " said Joe. He knew that Cherry wanted to change the topic of their conversation, and continued, "Mommy, you must be careful not to be stolen by those wolves in your company. You should always be on my side!"

"How could it otherwise be? I'll stay with you all of my life, so that you can take good care of me and feed me when you earn a lot of money in the future, " said Cherry, wearing a smile on her face, happy that she had such an intelligent boy.

Joe nodded, and said, "Well, I will definitely make you lead a happy life."

Then, Joe suddenly came up with another sentence before Cherry could reply to him. He said, "But mommy, why have your breasts gotten smaller?"

"What? I don't know..." How could Joe have possibly known that her breasts had gotten smaller before she did? Cherry was curious.

With his hands on Cherry's breasts, Joe said, "Look, they're so small now."

"Joe, stop it!" furiously said Cherry. It seemed that Joe took advantage of her every time he had the chance.

"Mommy, we sleep together every day. This is nothing to that. I just want to check how much smaller they have gotten, " said Joe mischievously. It appeared that his mommy was still pretty shy.

"Joe, don't put your hand inside! You can only touch the clothes!" furiously shouted Cherry. Her naughty boy always did this kind of things.

"Alright, mommy, but it feels good, " cunningly said Joe.

In the morning, Cherry went to work after she ate a quick breakfast.

When she arrived at the JS Group, one of the managers of the business department arranged a seat for her and told her some matters that she should pay attention to. He then asked an older staff member to guide Cherry to her work.

Soon after Cherry sat on her seat, she was called to the chief executive's office room by the receptionist.

Cherry then took the elevator to the administrative sector on the top floor.

Just as she came out of the elevator, Cherry saw four secretaries sitting nearby, busy getting their work done.

One of the secretaries saw Cherry and stared at her. Cherry immediately walked to her, and said with respect, "Hello, I'm Cherry Shen, the new employee, and the receptionist just told me to meet our chief executive here."

"Please wait, " said the secretary politely.

Cherry replied in the same polite manner, "Okay, thank you."

After she notified Selina, the secretary walked out again, and told Cherry, "Come in, please."

"Okay." Cherry nodded, and then entered the chief executive's office.

As she stood in front of the desk and looked at the person before her, Cherry felt that she might have met her before in some place, but she just couldn't remember what that place was. Maybe it was just her imagination, and she hadn't met her at all.

Cherry politely introduced herself, "Hello, I'm the new employee, and my name is Cherry Shen."

"Cherry Shen?" Selina called Cherry's name, and carefully looked at her.

The was something special about the woman in front of her, but she couldn't figure out what it was. Cherry gave her a feeling of simplicity, but she was well aware that there must be some secrets inside hidden deep inside of her. Seen from the surface, she looked perfect, she was beautiful, slender, and also well mannered. There was absolutely no blemish whatsoever on her.

Cherry nodded, and as she kept her eyes on her boss, Cherry also evaluated her boss. She could see that the woman was a charming commander, emanating a strong feeling of leadership. She was also a competent woman with a beautiful face, one with which Cherry was familiar to. Her face seemed to be very similar to that of someone that she knew, but she couldn't remember who that person was yet.

Selina didn't read Cherry's resume, and considered that there was no need for her to check it again because she believed that she was capable for the job, since she had passed the interview carried out by both the personal department, and the business department. She only wanted to meet Cherry so that she could recognize her boss.

She introduced herself, "I'm Selina, the chief executive of the group."

"Nice to meet you, Miss Selina, " immediately replied Cherry. She thought that since Selina was in charge of the whole JS Group, she had to be competent, and she believed there were a lot of things that she could learn from her in the future.

Selina nodded, and said, "Welcome to the JS Group! The business department manager has introduced you yesterday. I heard that you have also returned from abroad, so I am guessing that you should be competent, right?"

"Thank you, " replied Cherry modestly, "There are still a lot of things that I need to learn."

A slight smile appeared on Selina's face, and she said, "Well, here in the JS Group, as long as your ability is recognized, I will give you the position and salary that you deserve. You just have to work hard."

"Yes, I will, Miss Selina, " replied Cherry immediately.

Selina believed that she finished what she wanted to convey to her, and said, "Well, now you can get back to your work. And if you have any questions, you can ask your manager or the personnel department directly. If they can't deal with it for you, then you can ask me personally."

"Okay, then I leave first."

After she heard her, Selina nodded.

As she looked at Cherry leaving, Selina suddenly got interested in her. She didn't know what the reason was, but she genuinely thought that Cherry had been congenial to her at first sight. Cherry had made an excellent impression on her, and Cherry's position in her heart was equal to that of Lori Liu now. Moreover, she?felt?in?a?queer?way that Cherry would be an important person to her.

After she met Selina, Cherry got familiar with the surroundings and basic workflow for most of the day. Although she was not busy at all, her job made her time seem substantial.

After she got off work, Cherry got in the car and intended to drive back home, but Wilson called her, and told her to come and see the office room of his new company.

Wilson gave her an address, and Cherry stopped in front of an office building. After she went upstairs, she found him waiting for her.

When he saw Cherry, Wilson smiled, and said, "You're here! What do you think about it?"

After he said this, he pointed at the workroom behind him.

As she looked around the room, Cherry nodded in satisfaction. "It's nice, big and well decorated."

"That's what I thought, but I was afraid that there could be something wrong with my judgement, so I brought you here to also have a look, " said Wilson.

"Brother, are you going to recruit new staff members now?" asked Cherry. There were a lot of other things that needed to be prepared, and she was worried.

Wilson smiled, and said, "You needn't worry about it, I've already planned it with my friends. We're establishing a conjoined company, so they will send people from their own companies. But yes, I'm also intending to recruit a new staff. All of these details have already been on my mind."

After she heard what Wilson said, Cherry nodded, and said, "That's good, brother! You're always so considerate when it comes to work."

"Of course I am, I've been in the business circles for a lot of time. If I couldn't take these factors into account, then this company would have been closed soon, " said Wilson, with a smile on his face.

Cherry nodded.

All of a sudden, something occurred to Cherry's mind, and she immediately asked, "Did you pick up Joe from school this afternoon?"
