A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 1408 The Voice Of Resistance

"I'm sorry, sir. You can't see the CEO if you don't have an appointment." The receptionist wore a professional smile, but she could not help thinking, 'This man can't fool me. The new boss of the KING Group is Jacob Gu.'

Darren did not want to argue. He just walked past the receptionist and went straight to the elevator. The receptionist yelled after him.

"Sir! Sir! You can't go in there!"

Harlan approached the receptionist, whispered in her ear, and then followed Darren.

As soon as the receptionist heard what Harlan had whispered to her, her face turned red. "Jacob Gu isn't our new CEO? Oh, no. I'm going to get fired."

Her stomach turned at the realization that she had just offended the new CEO of their company.

Inside the elevator, Harlan watched Darren. He looked pissed, so Harlan said, "Ignore the receptionist. She's obviously new. She doesn't know who you are."

Darren kept silent.

Of course he knew that, but he still felt annoyed. He had not fought tooth and nail to acquire this company back just to be stopped at the front desk by a new receptionist.

The elevator went straight to the CEO's office.

Darren walked in with Harlan on his heels. The floor was paved with black marble that was clean and shiny enough to serve as a mirror. The gorgeous crystal chandelier that hung from the ceiling was like suspended glass rainfall. There was a wooden office desk, an imported swivel chair, and a bookcase with intricate carvings.

The office was as magnificent as before. However, Darren felt that something was off.

He asked Harlan to step out. As soon as he was alone, he started tidying up. It had been a long time since he had been here. He started reminiscing.

Harlan was waiting for the elevator when he overhead some employees talking. He stepped closer to eavesdrop.
