Chapter 1736

“The guests are on their way, but my office is still dirty. The cleaning lady did a Lousy job. You need to

clean it again.”

‘Me? Cleaning? Yeah, you wish!’ Blair refused, “I’m sorry, Filberta. I can’t. The guests will be here in

Less than twenty minutes. I’m still working on the materials that need interpretation. Find someone else

to clean!”

Filberta, who was wearing smoky eye makeup, gaped at Blair and berated,

“I’m your supervisor! When I ask you to clean, you clean! Besides, you’re so brilliant. I think you’ll do a

better job cleaning.”

Blair wasn’t provoked. She retorted with a smile, “Yes, you’re my supervisor. I’m wondering-will you

take the fall if something goes wrong with the upcoming meeting? After all, I’m supposed to be

preparing the materials. If you’re preventing me from doing that, then do you want to do it? Or can you

just tell the boss for me? Come on,

I’m just a nobody. I don’t think I can take on so much responsibility.

So can you do it for me?”

Filberta’s face was dark as coal.

“How dare you challenge me Like that!”

“I’m just trying to do my job. The delegation is about to arrive. Need someone to clean? Grab a broom.

I’m running out of time. So, if you’ll excuse me…” With that, Blair left the office.

She was telling the truth. If she spent the time cleaning Filberta’s office, she wouldn’t have enough time

to prepare for the meeting. If she screwed up, she would get fired. Maybe that was her supervisor’s

intent all along.

At 7:30 a.m., Blair followed Percy to the front doors to meet the guests.

As they stood outside, several stark black and shining Bentleys slowly came to a halt in front of the

office building. Percy walked up to greet the guests and Blair followed him closely. She had to be ready

for her job.

The chauffeurs opened the doors and some blond-haired men clad in drab business suits got out of the

cars. Blair recognized a couple of faces, and she was agape in astonishment. One of those men, a

young one, considering the age of everyone else, was smiling at her. He was her friend, Orion. They

had met in England. The older man in the Lead among the guests was his father, who was a business

tycoon. Though they had been out of touch, it was still a pleasant surprise seeing a familiar face.

Blair waved secretly at Orion.

What a coincidence!

Since she had to stay close to Percy to interpret for him, she barely had a chance to catch up with

Orion. Orion understood.

Percy showed the guests around the office, and then they proceeded towards the conference room.

Before the meeting started, there was a short break for everyone to settle down. Blair and Orion talked

in a quiet place.

“Hey… Orion, are you working with your father in business now?” she asked.

“Yes. My father is getting on in years. He doesn’t look it, but he is not in too good a shape this year. As

his only son, I think it is my duty to continue his business. To be frank, though, I don’t want to become a

businessman.”

Blair smiled.

“I understand. It’s a pity that you can’t surf as much as before. I know how much you Love it. But hey,

you can still do it in your spare time.“ Orion was a surfing fiend. When they had been in

England, he had spent almost all of his free time at the beach.

“That’s all I can hope to do, huh?” he shrugged helplessly.

“What about you? How are things at work? It looks like we’re going to see each other more often in the

future.”
