Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1340

Lina smiled and gently kissed Zuko on the lips.

It was destined to be another restless night tonight.

The next day, Lina set up a meeting with Lena at the company.

Lena was cautious, not using the main entrance but a side door and a dedicated elevator to get to Lina's office.

"You don't need to be so careful," Lina said, pouring her some tea with a smile. "Since you'll be working here soon, you'll come in daily through the main entrance."

"What?" Lena looked surprised, meeting Lina's gaze.

Lina handed over documents related to the sales department. "The project I've been handling is almost done. Now, the main focus is selling these properties."

Lena glanced at the documents and turned to Lina, clearly surprised. "You... want me to help sell houses?"

"Why not?" Lina smiled, gently holding Lena's hand. "I've considered it. You're still young. You shouldn't always be at home or looking after me. You should have your own world."

Lena quickly responded. "If you think staying with the Thompsons isn't good for me, I can leave anytime! I can also go back to my old job..."

"I don't want you to go back. That's why I want you here at the Thompson Group."

Lina's words caught Lena off guard.

"Being at the Thompson Group is much better than your previous job as a janitor," Lina said earnestly. "The other departments here have high education requirements that don't really suit you. After thinking it over, the sales department values individual skills, and the atmosphere is more relaxed. Plus, you can earn a good amount of money here, so—"

"How could I?" Lena smiled softly. "Actually, it's my fault. My presence triggered Kaitlyn, which pushed her to make those extreme choices."

"Don't blame yourself for this! She had deeper psychological issues. No one could have foreseen this outcome."

Lena lowered her head and held the teacup, her thumb tapping the rim nervously.

Soon, Lena officially joined the Thompson Group's sales department. Despite having worked from a young age, she was accustomed to solitude, so being part of a team was a new experience.

She felt the pressure as she observed the elegant sales department bustling with activity. She didn't want to disappoint Lina or shame the Thompsons.
