Chapter 7 The Double Life Of A Secretary

  • Vada Wise was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and was about to fight: “I told you to leave it alone, you are not his secretary anymore, it’s none of your business for the company to ask him for a meeting!” She had a falling out with Leo Mayor, but no one in the company knew about it.
  • She just received a call from the company. There was something wrong with the project. The shareholders were going crazy because they couldn’t find Leo Mayor, but he turned off his phone and couldn’t get in touch, sothe call came to her. Anyway, it was also a project she followed, and she thought that she had to come back and inform Leo Mayor because of emotion and reason, but she didn’t expect to hear such a sentence from him. It was like a thorn stuck in the heart. “Megan, are you okay?” “Vada Wise, did you buy the birth control pill?” “Bought, bought, here, you wait for me to buy you a bottle of water.” “No need.” She tore open the package, raised her head and threw the pills into her mouth. The bitter taste in her throat filled her mouth in an instant. The tablet was too big and stuck in her throat. She coughed several times and swallowed the tablet forcefully, choking tears came out. “Are you okay? Slow down.” The corners of her eyes were still shining brightly, but she smiled slightly: “Let’s go home.” “How about I take you somewhere else?” She smiled: “Life has to go on, and I have to find a new job as soon as possible. I don’t want to go back and ask for help.” Vada Wise breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said with a smile, “Exactly! Who wouldn’t turn around without the earth? Youare so capable, it’s not easy to find a new job, and your salary will double!” Back home, Megan Reed worked for a whole afternoon and made a perfect resume. Her resume is actually a very beautiful one, with a high degree, a good school, and outstanding work ability. She has participated in many big cases with a unit of 100 million with Leo Mayor before, and more importantly undefined she is young. She thought it would not be difficult to find another job, but two days later, she didn’t even receive a call for an interview. Could it be that what Leo Mayor said, no one in Houston dared to take her? She was a little desperate. Suddenly, her cell phone rang. Vada Wise was more excited than her: “Here we come! Quickly pick up!” She picked it up almost in trepidation: “Hi, I’m Megan Reed.” Is that Ms. Reed? This is the central hospital, please settle your mother’s treatment expenses as soon as possible.” Her smile froze on her face: “How much do you need in total?” “Three operations, together with the cost of chemotherapy and targeted drugs, totaled 120,000 dollars.” “Okay, I’ll raise money as soon as possible.” “Please be sure to pay the fee in full before tomorrow, otherwise we will not be able to give your mother follow-up treatment.” “Before tomorrow, in such a hurry?” “It’s a new policy in the courtyard, I’m just in charge of notifying you.” Megan Reed was a little suspicious. My mother had been ill for two or three years. Although there were cases of urging fees in the past, they had never been pressed so hard like now, as if she was afraid that she would not be able to pay. She suddenly remembered what she heard from Leo Mayor that day: In less than three days,she should go back and beg him. It has been two days since I met Leo Mayor in the women’s clothing store that day, and tomorrow is exactly the third day. The hand holding the phone tightened suddenly, and the knuckles were so hard that they turned white. Her voice trembled slightly: “Okay, I see.”
  • After hanging up the phone, Vada Wise asked, “From the hospital? How much does it cost this time? I’ll transfer it to you now.” Megan Reed hesitated a bit, but for the sake of her mother, no matter how embarrassed she was, she still said, “120000 dollars.” Vada Wise also stopped fiddling with the phone: “Why are there so many this time? My dadcharged my card last time, and now I can only take out 100,000 dollars in cash at most.” 100,000 dollars, even if she put down her dignity and returned the dress, plus the money she had saved for a while, the total would be less than 105,000 dollars. It’s still 20000 dollars short, where can she get it? Could it be that you really want to go back and beg Leo Mayor? She bit her lip, the color on her face was gone. Vada Wise said, “How about I ask my dad for some?” Megan Reed shook her head: “You’ve helped me a lot, I can’t bother you anymore, I’ll think of other ways.” “What can you do? Unless there is a windfall now- Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the phone ringing again. Megan Reed’s heart trembled, could it be him? Want to hear her beg for mercy? Megan Reed quickly sorted out his mood, took a deep breath, and then answered the phone:”Hello?” There was a strange male voice on the other end of the phone: “Ms. Reed, we are the Travis Group. We have read your resume. The boss is very satisfied with your work ability. The annual salary here is 150,000 dollars. If you If you are not satisfied, you can talk again.” Megan Reed was shocked, 150,000 dollars?!
