My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins
Chapter 8: He Was Here to Get Even
The whole company was competing openly this time, but the only rookie who had the guts to take part was Florence. Although her circumstances were unpromising, Madison appreciated Florence’s courage; hence she was more concerned about Florence.
“Florence, where is your design draft?”
Elaine stood in place rigidly as she held her draft tightly in her hand, and she was devastated.
Elise had ruined her opportunity.
She walked to Madison and handed out her design draft reluctantly.
“Director, could you give me another half an hour? I’ll redraw a copy.”
Madison frowned looking at her design draft that was ruined.
“If it was before, I could have given you some extra time. However, today is the first day the new president will be taking over the office. He will personally decide the winner of this competition, so the time must not be delayed.”
Madison said helplessly. She patted Florence’s shoulder and comforted her, “You’re still young, let’s wait for the next chance. I’ll have to cancel your qualification this time.”
“But...”
Florence tried to ask Madison for another chance, but Elise interrupted her words.
She squeezed Florence out and stood close to Madison.
“Madison, a new president is taking over? Why so sudden? I’ve never heard any rumor about this before.”
“I’ve just received the news too. I heard that a big shot bought our company last night.”
Everyone present was extremely surprised when they heard about it.
This company was a first-tier big company, which big shot had such an ability to purchase the company in just one night?
It was too unbelievable.
Somebody couldn’t help but ask, “So, who’s the new president?”
“We’ll know later, he will personally see the winner after this. You guys have to work hard.”
Madison paused for a moment and smiled, “Oh right, I heard he is a young man, and is extremely handsome too.”
