Second Marriage novel Chapter 375

Alice looked at Yanis who was rolling herself on the sofa.

“Yanis, I don’t mean to upset you. But I’ve found that you’re dealing with things without thinking over the years.

Yanis said, “Alice, do you mean that I am an airhead? You can’t be so mean.” Then she said, “I want to use my judgment. But I can’t be as sharp as you. We both have changed a lot these years. You became smarter, while I got stupid.”

Alice was speechless.

“Well, you can just treat me as a mindless person. Anyway, I don’t want to think too many things. I enjoyed my leisure and cozy life now. Just tell me what you thought at that time. All the members of your team were paid high salaries. What would you do if they left?”

“They wouldn’t,” Alice replied confidently.

“Why?”

“They are not ordinary people,” Alice looked at her and said gently, “They are outstanding designers. However, although they have made achievements, their career life is short and they are very proud. It is easy for me to arouse their reverse psychology. Even if they wanted to leave the company, they would despise themselves for not working but being paid with a high salary.”

Hearing her words, Yanis suddenly got up from the sofa and turned to stare at Alice seriously.

“What are you doing?” Alice was amused by her action.

Yanis just kept staring at her and said seriously, “Alice, you’ve become completely different as before. At that time, you were…”

“It’s all over now.” Alice seemed to know what Yanis was going to say. She interrupted her before she could finish her words. She said, “Don’t mention it.”

Then Yanis realized that she almost said something that she shouldn’t. She nodded at her.

They stayed in the company for some time and then left.

Because Alice had just started her company, she needed to choose a day to hold the opening ceremony and think out a name for it.

After they drove away from the building, Rachel came back from the window.

She said, “She is driving a Volkswagen. I’ve thought that she is rich before.”

“A Volkswagen?” Winnie raised her eyebrow and asked, “It is cheap. She has a company. Why does she drive in such an average car?”

“Zain gave her company. Maybe she doesn’t have much money. She can only buy a Volkswagen.” Rachel’s words stood in sharp contrast to her gentle image.

Ada just adjusted her glasses and did not speak.

Noah rested his chin on his hand and said, “But she is very smart. She knows how to use our weaknesses. Finally, she got us all to stay here. I’ve thought that some of us would leave today.”

Noah looked at several people as he spoke.

“Humph,” Winnie sneered and said, “Why do we leave here? I won’t let you look down on us. If we didn’t work and left here after getting a high salary, we would have a bad reputation in the industry.”

Ada nodded approvingly when she heard Winnie’s words. “I agree with Winnie. We have signed the contract and got the salary. It would be selfish if we left at this time.”

Sean said, “Anyway, we’ve been paid the salary. At least we should work for her in the next several months. She looks kind. We can just wait to see her true skill.”

Noah said, “It sounds flirting.”

Winnie gave Noah a stare when she heard his words. What a playboy he was!

Seeing that Winnie was angry, Sean scolded Noah, “You have unhealthy thoughts. Stop talking about it!”

“What’s wrong with me saying dirty words? We’re all adults now.”

Then Noah turned to look at Winnie and said, “Miss Winnie, would you like to have a meal with me tonight?”

Winnie replied, “No, you don’t deserve me to spend time with you.”

Noah didn’t lose his temper and he still smiled at her.

“Winnie is right.” Sean followed her words. Because he admired her, he got angry when Noah invited Winnie to have a meal. He said, “Winnie won’t like a man like you!”

“Haha, or maybe she has a crush on you now?” Noah answered back. Then Sean’s face darkened.

“Well, knock it off!” Ada said helplessly, “We’re free tonight.”

“How about having a meal together?”

“Okay. Hugo can go with us.” Chloe nodded and agreed with Ada. Then she turned to look at Hugo excitedly.

But Hugo didn’t respond to her.

Who knows Lin Zheng didn't even respond.

“Chloe, why do you keep chasing after Hugo? He is very solitary. Don’t talk to him.”

“It’s none of your business. It’s my will.”

“Well, I just want to help you. You are very cute. Hugo is unromantic and he doesn’t understand you at all.”

...

They had a lot to do for this new company.

Although Alice hadn’t thought about setting up a company before, Zain sent it to her. She had to try her best to manage her company.

The first thing she needed to do was to look for the staff. Zain only arranged for a design team. She had to solve other problems.

Yanis was her assistant and she volunteered to help Alice.

She said, “We need two receptionists, so they can change shifts. We can also find the guards, chefs and cleaners in the job market.”

“Okay.” Alice nodded and said, “I’ll leave it to you.”

“No problem. I’ll make it.”

After that, Yanis went to deal with this thing, while Alice had other things to do. They were busy with their own things.

After three days, Yanis found all the staff they needed. At the same time, Alice also finished her work.

She was so cautious that she personally met all the people that Yanis had found. Then they signed the contract.

On the second, Alice was still working late. She was writing the project at the computer. Jack looked at her back and said, “Mommy, it’s very late now. It’s time to sleep.”

Hearing his words, Alice didn’t turn around and said, “Jack, go to sleep now. Mommy will accompany you later.”
