Chapter 213
Unexpectedly, Angela's casual remarks left Logan at a loss for how to respond.
If he were to insist on firing the receptionist now, it would seem like he was the one at fault.
Losing against Angela after his first move left him feeling bitter, though he kept his expression neutral.
"Ms. Graham, you're too kind to the employees. Well then, let's head in. Oh, what an unfortunate coincidence the
CEO's personal elevator is out of service today, so we'll have to squeeze in with the other employees. I'm sure
you won't mind, right?"
Logan put on a fake smile, his entire demeanor unwelcoming.
Angela's smile remained unchanged as she replied lightly, "Of course not, Mr. Chapman."
With that, she stepped into the company lobby first, and Logan quickly followed. This was the tthe elevators
were used the most during the day.
Out of the ten elevators, six were out of order, leaving only four functioning. The waiting areas in front of them
were packed, with employees glancing anxiously at their watches as they waited in frustration.
There were less than five minutes left before the 8:40 am clock-in time, yet all four elevators were full. It was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtenough to make anyone anxious.
Taking in the scene, Angela silently made a mental note of it.
Before she could say or do anything, Logan suddenly raised his voice and yelled, "Everyone, step aside! Let Ms.
Graham go first!"
Angela was utterly speechless.
Logan was downright insidious. He was using her nto do every dirty trick while he stood back, enjoying the
benefits.
Wasn't he just setting her up for criticism?
Sure enough, as soon as Logan spoke, all eyes turned toward Angela, their gazes carrying mixed emotions. Yet,
almost instinctively, they took a few steps back, making way for her.
If she said nothing and simply accepted this privilege, casually stepping into an elevator while the rest anxiously
waited.
These employees would no doubt take to their group chats to vent. She could already imagine them creating
memes of her before the day was over.
Angela had been an employee before, so of course she knew exactly what they were thinking.
She simply smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone. Since the elevators are out of order and it's delaying you
from clocking-in, let's push today's clock in tback by 20 minutes. There's no need to rush. Don't let
something so trivial ruin your day."
Her smile was refreshing, like a cool breeze cutting through the morning heat.
With just a few simple words, she had given these weary employees a moment of relief, yet they were
dumbfounded.
Everyone exchanged looks, unsure if they had heard her correctly.
A young woman in the crowd finally mustered her courage and asked, "Excuse me, but... who are you?"
She had voiced the question on everyone's minds.
They thought this elegant woman had to be someone high up in the company- someone even more powerful
than Logan.
Angela maintained her poised,
friendly smile. "I'm Angela Graham. Starting today, I'll be working alongside all of you. Let's work. together to
make this company better and to give everyone here a better future."
The crowd was shocked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis was Angela Graham?
The infamous woman rumored to have driven her father to his deathbed and seized power in a ruthless coup?
People had said she looked almost identical to the previous CEO. If that were true, how could she possibly be this
attractive?
The person standing before them... Her beauty was the epitof elegance. She was absolutely stunning!
Moreover, she said she'd be working alongside everyone and helping them have a better life.
In Graham Group, even a lowly security supervisor walked around with an air of arrogance.
As for department heads and managers? They acted like their noses were permanently stuck in the clouds. So
how could they suddenly have such an approachable CEO?
