Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies novel Chapter 171

Chapter 171 Anne noticed that Tommy was staring, so she leaned back in annoyance. Not at all ashamed that he was caught, he continued casually, “What‘s wrong with being my assistant?”

“I want something else. Another post where I can stay away from you.”

“You will take what I give you.” He kept one hand on the steering wheel and leaned one arm against the edge of the car window.

“Fine! Go tell Anthony that I have been hiding his children from him, and I‘ll go tell him that you were working in the dark to kill him.” Anne refused to step down on the matter. “I‘ve already compromised. Don‘t get too cocky.” He tapped his finger on the steering wheel rhythmically as he considered her words, “Alright! I will get you a position that isn‘t too hard and where you can stay away from people... How about an accounting officer? Is there a problem with that?” “... None.” Anne was content with the offer. It was a position that required minimal human contact and would not have too heavy of a workload. Though she had not worked in the position before, she was no fool. With Tommy‘s help, she was offered the job with ease, and her colleagues were generous enough to teach her the ropes. In the office, they would chat leisurely when they were free and snack on food from time to time, so Anne had not felt uncomfortable adjusting to the new environment.

That was until she overheard gossiping in the washroom at noon.

“Is she Mr. Marwood‘s girlfriend?” “Definitely not if she‘s ugly, but she could be since she‘s pretty.” “Sigh. A pretty face is a VIP pass anywhere! We only managed to get in because we graduated from Iva League college.”

“Yeah, we had to work so hard to get in. But for someone like her to get in like that, she would probably be tossed out as soon as they break up, right?”

“So we are still in a better position, then?” “We are actually qualified for the positions we were offered, after all!”

The few women exited the bathroom in laughter.

“Is there a conference this afternoon?” The last sentence was cut off by the door.

Anne did not pay much mind to what they said. After all, she was only there to work, not to make friends.

‘Did they mention a conference? With the shareholders? I didn‘t really hear them. Whatever. I won‘t have to show up to it anyway,‘ she thouy it. 1

There was indeed a meeting with the shareholders at two in the afternoon, and the CFO headed to the meeting ahead of time while the others kept their focus on their own work “Have you all noticed that it‘s been a while since Michelle Grainger appeared in public?”

“The latest news said that one of the jewelry brands she worked with fired her.” 1

“That international brand?”

“Was it because of all the scandals about her getting plastic surgery? There were comments that said she showed up in the Aesthetic Clinic frequently, so i guess she had a lot of places done.”

Anne had not imagined for the situation to escalate this far. Michelle liad thought that Anne was the one who spread the rumor, and Aune was worried that she might come looking for trouble again.

The landline on the desk rang, and Aune picked up. “Hello?” “Anne, bring me the documents I have on the top left corner of my desk. I think it‘s there in a blue folder...” The CFO said.

“I found it.”

“Bring it to the meeting room.” “Okay.” She hung up and hurried to the meeting room with the documents in hand. She went through the content briefly in the corridor and found out that it was the financial report for the first half of the year.

It made perfect sense that the shareholders would want to see this.

Not knowing her way around the office, she only managed to locate the meeting room after asking someone.

The fact that the CFO had asked for her to deliver the documents instead of asking another employee meant that the CFO was taking ‘special‘ care of her because she was referred to the company by Tommy.
