"Yes." The employees of the Public Relations Department, who were assigned temporarily to support this reception, responded in unison.
Emma's eyes finally fell on Karen again. "Karen, I heard that you are the top employee in the Sales Department. You will be with the new boss later and be responsible for him. You don't have to worry about other things."
Karen nodded, but Madonna, another employee of the Public Relations Department, gloated and said, "Karen, if our new boss is still single, would you seize the chance to get close to him?"
It was actually not easy to get close to the new boss. Everyone knew that it would be a difficult job. No one wanted to pick it up, so Karen took the job.
Emma stared at Madonna with a straight face and said, "What happens today will highly affect our future. Be serious."
After being scolded by Emma, no one made a sound. They took in a quiet breath and put on their best behavior. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
It was not Emma's fault that she was nervous. After all, this matter had come so suddenly.
Just as everyone had thought that everything was finally at peace in the company, the board of directors suddenly issued a statement saying that the boss wanted to have a new person take over the business.
However, this new-appointed big boss was very mysterious. The heads of various departments enquired about him through various means, but they could not find any information about him.
Karen was usually not nosy. But even she could not help but stretch her neck to look at the entrance, wanting to see who this big boss was.
"Yes, yes. All the directors and the new boss are here." The voice of the reception staff channeled from the walkie-talkie to the other employees.
Her colleagues subconsciously adjusted their clothes and stood in their positions respectfully.
Karen followed closely behind Emma to welcome the mysterious boss that everyone had waited for a long time.
After a few steps, a tall man in a silver-gray suit walked elegantly towards the lobby, surrounded by several men in black suits.
At first glance, she was stunned.
In front of the crowd, the tall man in a silver-gray suit was her newly married husband, Kevin Kyle!
"Impossible!" Karen thought that it was an illusion. She immediately closed her eyes and shook her head.
But when she opened her eyes and looked again, the man's appearance did not change.
If it were someone else, she could have made a mistake, but this was her new husband. She couldn't be wrong.
His features were as sharp as a knife, and his height was exactly at 1.88 meters. He had a strong build and walked with a discreet air of elegance.
No matter what this man did, he was perfectly the same as her new husband.
"Kevin?" Karen stared at the man and subconsciously called out his name.
When he heard her voice, the man's gaze shifted to her.
Looking at his eyes, Karen felt so nervous that she almost forgot to breathe.
She would never think that her "ordinary" newly married husband would become her company's new boss.
She looked at him with her head buzzing. She felt as if she might explode.
The man's gaze lingered on her for a moment and then moved away as if he didn't know her at all.
After what he just did, Karen's heart sank rapidly.
He was obviously Kevin Kyle, her new husband. Why did he look at her with such indifferent eyes?
After a while, various thoughts flashed through her mind.
The most possible scenario was that she was dreaming. It was an unrealistic dream.
Kevin had always been gentle and patient. He spoke and did things politely. He would never pretend that he didn't know her.
She pinched herself hard and twitched her mouth in pain, only to find that this was not a dream at all.
Since it was not a dream, there was another possibility. This man might have the same face as Kevin did, but he might be a completely different person.
Emma pulled Karen aside and scolded her in a low voice, "Karen, do you know what kind of an occasion is this? What the hell are you doing?"
Karen Daly was a little annoyed as if she was rudely awakened from a dream.
Emma whispered again, "Hurry and keep up."
Karen nodded and quickly followed the new boss. She had concealed her emotions and faced the big boss who looked exactly like her new husband professionally.
Emma quickened her pace and caught up with the new boss and the others. She pushed open the door of the banquet hall for the reporters and said, "Let's all welcome the directors and our new boss!"
As Emma's voice fell, there was fierce applause in the conference hall. Everyone stared at the entrance, waiting for the mysterious big boss to show up.
Karen gasped quietly and followed closely behind the big boss. After the big boss was seated, she quickly handed over some documents.
Even though she had professional training, the fact that the company's new boss was actually her new husband still shocked her too much. She trembled, and two pieces of paper from the documents in her hand fell to the ground.
Karen was about to bend down to pick up the files, but Kevin picked them up before she did. Then he whispered in her ear, "Wait for me at home tonight."
If Kevin had not said these words, Karen would still treat him as a man who only looked exactly like her husband. As soon as he said this, Karen was mind-blown. She was dumbfounded and forgot what to do.
Fortunately, the reporters' attention was not on her, so she had some time to adjust her emotions.
The reporters did not notice her. However, the sharp-eyed employees of the Public Relations Department did not miss this little episode.
The Public Relations Department was well prepared for the event, and all other departments cooperated well. Kevin was charismatic enough to take on the press, so the conference went very
well.
As soon as the new boss and the other directors left, Madonna rushed over and said, "Karen, the way you "accidentally" dropped the documents just now was great - you successfully attracted our new boss's attention."
Karen frowned slightly. She turned to Emma and said, "Manager Wilson, I'll go back to the Sales department after finishing my work here."
Looking at Karen turn away from her, Madonna was so angry that she stomped her feet. "She ignored me! She just ignored me! Why is she so arrogant?"
Emma glared at Madonna and said, "Don't just stir up trouble all day long. If you continue to make trouble, you will be the next one to leave. If you are capable enough, just do your job well. As long as you climb to a higher position than she does, you will be qualified to be arrogant as well.”
Madonna glared at Karen's back as she walked away. She gritted her teeth and replied, "Understood, cousin."
