Love Strategy: CEO He is Really Scheming！

Chapter 58: Chapter 58: Did Assistant Morris and Miss Johnson Have a Grudge?!

But at this moment, pretending not to know that Arlo Seys was the company president seemed impossible, because Rowen Liston had already hinted at it. Ariel Morris curled her lips into a slight smile, greeting the indifferent-looking man as if they were meeting for the first time: ”Ah, so you’re the president of our company, sorry, President Seys, my apologies, my apologies.”

Callan Walkers: ...Miss Morris, it’s a shame you’re not in the entertainment circle with your acting skills. Clearly, you have a history with President Seys, yet you act like you’re meeting for the first time...

Arlo Seys didn’t even spare a glance at Ariel Morris. Just as the elevator dinged open, Arlo stepped out with long strides.

Callan Walkers followed closely behind, and Rowen Liston gave Ariel Morris a glare before catching up.

Ariel Morris watched Arlo Seys leave, feeling a bit desolate and lost. Arlo Seys had ignored her from beginning to end, which made her feel somewhat uncomfortable. With her hands tucked into the windcoat pockets, she touched the keys Aunt Forest had given her, and a mischievous smile suddenly appeared in her eyes. She stuck her tongue out playfully at Arlo’s departing figure and pressed the elevator close button.

Arlo Seys, the thirty-six strategies of chasing love: one of Ariel Morris’s exclusive grand strategies was: be shameless, so she could seize opportunities close at hand.

Arlo, I managed to pursue you once, and I can do it a second time.

Ariel Morris arrived at the twenty-seventh floor where Era’s artists were based and just stepped out of the elevator when she bumped into Valeria Johnson and another assistant, Martin.

Valeria Johnson didn’t know what had gone wrong today. Her originally sullen face burst into anger when she saw Ariel Morris, and she shouted at her, ”Do you have any sense of time? Late by almost two hours! Ariel Morris! If you don’t want to work, then just get out of Era!”

Since she was indeed late and at fault, Ariel Morris held back and didn’t respond to Valeria’s anger.

”What kind of people does HR hire? Irresponsible people like you come in to be my assistant?” Valeria Johnson snapped, her sharp gaze sweeping coldly over the company employees.

Everyone instinctively looked down when her gaze met theirs, afraid she’d unleash her fury on them. The assistant Martin behind her dared not make a sound for Valeria would often vent her anger on him; he was her scapegoat.

Finally, Valeria’s angry gaze rested on Ariel Morris.

Ariel sighed inwardly, wondering how she had such bad luck. Getting into Era only to fall under Valeria Johnson’s hands! Was the universe deliberately making her life difficult?

Ariel had a calm and unruffled expression, avoiding Valeria’s sharp gaze as she lightly replied, ”Miss Johnson, it seems you yourself requested me to be your assistant.”

Did she want to be Valeria’s assistant? She was wholeheartedly against it!

The other colleagues in the company were astonished, secretly glancing up at this fearless new colleague, daring to talk back to Valeria Johnson, and as a little assistant no less. It was truly a first!

Valeria Johnson was embarrassed on the spot, but what Ariel Morris said was the truth. Being in front of so many people, she couldn’t act overly harsh, so she silently noted this down, stomped her high heels, and angrily walked out.

Ariel Morris let out a sigh of relief and quickly followed her out.

Valeria Johnson spent the entire morning shooting a magazine cover, leaving her no time to pick on Ariel Morris, allowing Ariel to enjoy some leisure.

Seeing Valeria Johnson take a break and sipping juice, while the other assistant Martin stood by serving her, Ariel Morris stood up and went to the restroom.

In the restroom cubicle, just as Ariel Morris was about to push open the door to leave, she heard voices outside.

”Hey, what’s the background of that new Assistant Morris? Why does it seem like she has issues with Valeria Johnson?” a female voice chimed in.
