The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 497

Chapter 497

James could not be bothered to intervene further. He decided to let the Callahans deal with this on their own. He would help them after the medical conference had ended.

He returned to his room.

Thea was reading a book in the room.

“Darling, what are you reading?”

Thea put the book down and beamed at him.

“I just bought some books to read because I was bored at home.” James nodded approvingly.

“That’s great.” James was proud of Thea because she did not give up on herself and continued learning despite her family’s dire situation.

Right then, his phone rang, it was an unknown number. He picked it up

“Hello? Who is this?”

“It’s me, Quincy.” James frowned upon hearing her voice, “Why? Did anything happen?”

Quincy’s yelling voice projected past the phone’s speaker and loudly into the room. “James, is this how you act as an employee? You’re receiving a five thousand dollar basic salary from Transgenerational Group, yet you never show up to work! You’ve worked here for quite a while already, yet you haven’t completed a single business deal.”

James was not amused by the fact Quincy was bossing him around. Thea asked, “Darling, who is it?”

James answered, “It’s Quincy.”

“Hm?”

Thea looked at him and said, “Put her on speaker.”

James relented.

“James, please be more serious about your job. Five thousand is an exorbitant sum for a basic salary. We can’t have a salesman like you slack off like this. Get to the office now! If I don’t see you in 30 minutes, you can pack your stuff and leave. Beep… beep… beep…”

James looked at Thea, and explained, “Quincy is the vice president of Transgenerational Group. She is in charge of everything in the company. I am a salesman in one of their branches, so she would be my boss. However, I don’t know why the vice president of a huge conglomerate would target a small salesperson like me.”

James walked toward the secretary. She donned a women’s suit and formal heels, her hair was neatly combed and tied into a ponytail. She, too, stepped toward James.

The sounds of her heels clicking against the tiles echoed in the hallway.

“This is the working area of the vice president. What are you doing here? Which department are you from?”

James gave her a once over, and smiled, “I’m here for vice president Xenos. She asked me to come here. You can go confirm with her if you don’t believe me.”

The woman looked at James’s name tag and raised a brow, “Why would Ms. Xenos want to meet a salesperson?”

Quincy was at the helm of various companies under Transgenerational Group. She usually met with CEOs, executives, and other directors. Why did a regular salesperson have a reason to meet her?

“Please stop joking, sir. Since we’re from the same company, I won’t press you further as a favor, but you should leave now. If she finds you here, you’ll be in trouble.”

“Sir?” James scratched his nose.

Was he really that old?

He had been called sir by two people in a row today.
