“I am Garrett.” Garrett sprung up from his seat “I am here to negotiate with you in our boss’ stead.” “And your boss is?” “Mr. Jared Presgrave, President of Presgrave Group.”
“Oh, yes. Good day to you!” Immediately, Garrett welcomed the middle-aged man with passion and not a trace of disrespect. There was nothing but gratification in his eyes.
“Our boss has expressed that, as long as you stop pestering Miss Reiss, he shan’t pursue the car’s reparation fee any further, but he shall still retain the right to pursue the matter. Do you understand?” The middle-aged man was Dean Tilly, and he was Jared’s personal assistant who dealt with Jared’s private matters.
Instantly, thoughts arose in the Andinos’ minds. At the same time, the overwhelming weight in Garrett’s heart vanished, after which he hastily answered, “Yes, of course! I did some unspeakable things when I was drunk last night. I assure you that we the Andinos will stop troubling Ellen, and I will definitely fulfill my part of the promise as long as your boss no longer pursues my obligation.”
“Garrett, the fault is your own. Why are we dragged into your promise as well?” Nicole scoffed.
Hearing that, Dean turned to her and warned, “Ellen Reiss is under Mr. Presgrave’s protection. Should any of you Andinos dare to bother her in the future, he will not go easy on you, and if any of you dare meddle with Miss Reiss relocation fund, you should get ready for prison.
Dean’s warning instantly startled the Andinos. Never had they expected Ellen had found herself such an enormous pillar of support.
After Dean departed, the Andinos got into a quarrel right away. The matter with the relocation fund left a crack in the Andino siblings’ relationship, as though there was a grave family feud. Seeing that, Lilac couldn’t help but shed a tear in helplessness
In the afternoon, Ellen received a text message, which she assumed to be a spam message at a glance, but to her surprise, the sender was Jared. ‘I’ve dealt with the Andinos for you. Nobody will trouble you anymore!
Reading the text, Ellen was overwhelmed with emotions as her eyes were dampened thanks to the sentiments. She had no idea how to repay Jared’s deeds as she replied, ‘Thank you so much, President Presgrave. I promise to repay you at the first opportunity.
No need. Just focus on your work! “I certainly will, Ellen replied. All of a sudden, the phone on her desk rang, after which she answered, “Good day, you’re speaking to Presgrave Group’s reception.”
“Ellen, please come to the Human Resource Department Manager’s office.”
Ellen was taken aback to receive a call from the Human Resource Department manager. After informing Olive about it, she went straight upstairs. Soon, she anxiously entered the HR manager’s office, wondering if the employee of the Finance Department she encountered earlier had made a complaint about her.
However, Ellen saw no signs of anger from the lady manager as she merely took a look at her, after which the manager pulled out a form. “Fill this form out and sign it.”
Peering at the Employee’s Living Quarters Application Form, Ellen subconsciously blinked and asked, “Miss Curry, what form is this?”
“It’s one of the accommodation benefits the company offers to its employees, and you’re one of the few selected to enjoy this benefit. Fill it out, and you’ll receive a key once you’re done!” Finished, the manager continued observing her. Essentially, such a benefit was not open for application to ordinary employees as only manager-level employees were eligible to apply for it.
Moreover, the house assigned to her was a luxurious benefit specifically designed for those of director-level and above. “Seriously? They picked me?” Ellen was pleasantly surprised.
Despite letting out a chuckle, the manager wondered how oblivious Ellen was to her own luck. But of course, the higher-ups stated that she was not to disclose anything more than that. “Indeed, but you are obligated not to reveal the matter to anyone else. Now, you may simply move into the house.”
“Got it. Thank you, Miss Curry!” Ellen was extremely grateful.
In response, the manager bitterly grinned. Why is she thanking me? She should be thanking the boss himself. Without his signature, who would have dared to make such a decision?
After filling out the form, Ellen claimed a bunch of keys, as well as a card with an address to an apartment on it. Now, she could officially move into the new home the company arranged for her.
