Love At The Wrong Table

To put it simply, for regular employees who still had aspirations to climb the corporate ladder, this was a once-in-a- lifetime opportunity. However, for someone at a managerial level like her, it was rather disappointing.

She already had an annual salary of several hundred thousand dollars. A commission of 1 million was tempting, but it wasn’t a game-changer for her. Even if she succeeded, could she expect the company to promote her to the position of general manager? Moreover, as a woman, she preferred stability, so she wanted to delegate this task to someone else.

However, she couldn’t think of anyone capable of handling this responsibility. If she simply handed it off to someone and they failed, as the marketing manager, she would still have to take responsibility for it. What a dilemma!

The next morning, she walked out of her neighborhood onto the street. Usually, she drove to work by herself, but because she didn’t sleep well the previous night and had difficulty concentrating, she decided to take a taxi for safety reasons.

However, finding a taxi proved to be challenging, and someone hailed one before her.

Realizing that she was about to be late for work, and considering that the general manager had mentioned discussing the big project with her as soon as she arrived, she couldn’t help but feel anxious.

Just then, upon closer inspection, she was surprised to see that the person who took her taxi was none other than Shane!

Shane’s gaze traveled up from her black stockings to her ample bosom. After swallowing hard, he recognized Lauren. “Uh, Ms. Pennington, what a coincidence! Do you need a taxi too?”
