Devin’s sports car had been following her. Becky shrugged it off and decided not to care about it.
Only when her car pulled into the parking lot did the sports car finally leave her alone.
Becky parked the car and went straight to her apartment.
Becky was exhausted. After washing her face and brushing her teeth, she went to bed.
The following morning, Becky woke up to the sound of her alarm.
It was February now and the sun rose later than usual. Even at seven o’clock, it was still dark outside.
Becky got out of bed and went to the bathroom to freshen up.
She had a meeting this morning. As soon as she arrived at her office, Talia knocked on her door. “Miss Ramos?”
Becky looked up at her and could tell instantly that something was wrong. “What happened?”
“Elvin didn’t sign the contract.” Talia bit her lower lip.
But Becky was expecting this.
“And what about Robbie?”
Talia nodded and gave the material regarding him to Becky. “Here, Miss Ramos.”
Becky took the document and scanned through it quickly. Then she couldn’t help but sneer. “It seems that Fairway Group has been treating Highlight Group well these years.”
After putting the document aside, Becky looked up at Talia and said, “Well, let’s go to the meeting first.”
On Friday night, Becky signed the contract with Domenic. But she was just a manager, and the contract’s validity relied on Elvin’s signature.
However, Elvin refused to sign contract now. His intention was loud and clear.
This morning’s meeting did not go very smoothly. Becky had been with the company for two weeks now and Elvin finally vented his anger on her.
The two of them disagreed with each other, so they couldn’t move on with the meeting.
But Becky simply went inside her office, leaving the shocked Sonya with the bouquet of fake flowers.
After a few minutes, Becky emerged from her office again with a document in her hand.
She strode to Elvin’s office, her high heels clicking against the floor.
Becky’s imposing manner startled Elvin’s assistant. “Oh, good morning, Miss Ramos. Are you looking for Mr. Perkins?”
“Yes.”
She bypassed the assistant and knocked on the door to Elvin’s office.
“Come in.”
Becky pushed the door open and walked straight to Elvin’s desk with the document in her hand. Looking down at him, she said, “Mr. Perkins, I’m here to ask what’s wrong with Starch Company’s contract.”
Elvin’s expression instantly darkened. “We have cooperated with Highlight Group for so many years. Ending our contract with them will cause a lot of criticism in the industry.”
