Chapter 1557

“It’s probably because I attended your brother’s wedding that everyone at the branch office has ideas about your brother. Some are trying to suck up to me by promoting your brother, while others are worried that his rapid promotion might threaten their own interests. So, your brother’s been getting stuck with overtime and socializing lately.” Charlie explained patiently.

Emily was confused. “Are there people trying to stop my brother from getting promoted? But shouldn’t working harder make it easier for him to get promoted?”

Charlie responded, “No, sometimes working too hard is just a waste of time and could lead to mistakes. This is just a manipulative tactic used by some seasoned bosses.”

Finally, Emily got it. “So that’s how it is.”

Charlie said seriously, “So, I didn’t consider this carefully. I’m sorry.”

Emily shook her head. “It’s not your fault. I won’t blame you. I’m very understanding.”

Charlie looked at her deeply. “Actually, I wish you could be less understanding sometimes.”
