My Mute Bride

Chapter 302 Breaking the Law

The next day, Gloria stayed with Justin at the hospital while Rachel went to attend a company meeting. “Hello, Mr. Holt, why are you here?” After having arrived at the company, Rachel ran into Evan at the entrance.

Evan gave a wide smile as he regarded her in the same way that a senior would for their junior while greeting, “I was worried that you could face opposition since you’ve just taken over the company, so I’m here as backup to see who would dare to bully you. Rachel, you don’t look too good. You must have been exhausted by all the events lately.”

“I’m ok. It’s not that tiring.”

“How could you not be tired? I’ve already said that we should arrange to have an assistant help you so that the workload can be delegated, so don’t be this courteous with me. Also, Vivian has been under you for quite a while now. How do you find her?”

Vivian, who was the secretary of Hudson Pharmaceuticals, was the reason why Evan had always been ahead of everyone in terms of information.

“She’s a good worker. You’ve taught her well, Mr. Holt.”

“It reassures me to hear you saying this. How about you allow Vivian to fill in as the role of an assistant for you?”

The difference between an assistant and a secretary was that an assistant had to be on call twenty-four seven with every confidential document that Rachel was looking at passing through their hands.

“It’s fine, Mr. Holt. I already have a person in mind for that position.”

“You have?”

As they were talking, a roar of an engine bellowed behind the crowd as a blue supercar parked at the entrance.

Stepping out of the car, Jolly passed the car key to the valet as he walked toward Rachel in a pair of high heels with a height of 4 inches. “Sorry, I’m late. There was some congestion on the way here.”

As Rachel reached out to take Jolly’s hand, she calmly introduced, “Mr. Holt, let me introduce you to my assistant, Jolly Carter.”

Evan, who came to his senses after a while, answered, “If memory serves me right, aren’t you the precious daughter of the CEO of Carter Enterprises?”

“Do you know my dad, Mr. Holt?”

Removing her sunglasses, Jolly revealed a pair of eyes that had eyeshadow applied on it.
