Chapter 914

Chapter 914 Appointment “Many of the employees aren’t locals. Our former boss was at odds with Mr. Lee before. It’s a little unsettling now that we’re getting a new boss. We don’t mean any harm. We just hope Mr. Lee will treat us all the same.”

Jem added, “We’d feel uneasy if you didn’t accept the gift.”

That was the true reflection of many employees‘ thoughts.

Jem had previously put ideas in the employees‘ heads. Now all departments decided to present Sophie with a gift.

At that point, Sophie could not refuse the gifts.

Representatives from other departments offered gifts that were not too expensive, so Sophie accepted them without reservations.

Another two male employees carried chocolate Easter eggs over.

“I’m Lennon Zest, Ms. Song. That’s Theo Kunt, my colleague in the back office. This is a gift you, from the back office.”

for Giggles filled the room.

A female employee teased, “Lennon, Easter is over. Are you giving away the chocolate eggs stashed in the office? I supposed the leftover eggs came to good use.”

“Haha...”

The crowd burst out in laughter.

It was insincere to give away chocolate eggs when Easter was over.

Lennon and Theo stood there, flushed with embarrassment.

Not wanting to put them in the spot, Sophie said, “I’ll take the chocolate eggs. I was too busy during Easter to enjoy any eggs.

“Thank you, Ms. Song.”

Lennon and Theo thanked Sophie.

Malice hid in their eyes.

She asked two colleagues to help with moving the gifts to the office before diving into work.

The next day quickly arrived.

It was the day Kaze would report to work at Hudson Investment Firm.

Like a concerned parent, Darcy woke Kaze up early in the morning, picked out his clothes, and groomed him.

“Kaze, it never hurts to watch and learn. Remember to give your everything...” Before Kaze left the house, she nagged him.

“Don’t worry, babe. Your advice is ingrained in my head,” Kaze said helplessly.

He insisted on dropping Darcy off at her office at Quartet Group before making his way to the investment firm.

“Welcome, Mr. Chairman.”

Sophie led several employees to greet Kaze.

To her surprise, the people there to meet Kaze were not as many as the ones who threw her a welcome party.

Jem and a few senior executives were nowhere to be found.

“How is everything going, Sophie?”

Kaze did not mind at all as he did not care for the formalities. He walked into the elevator. “Things seem to be going well.‘

Sophie gave a brief account of the corporate operation. They were approaching the CEO’s office when they came across Jem standing there with a group of executives and employees.

“Hello all. This is Kaze Lee, the newly appointed CEO.”

“Hello there, Mr. Lee.”

Amid the scatter of greetings, Kaze recognized Jem from Century Fun yesterday.

He raised his brow in surprise.
