NovelEnglishChapter 1179
When Cordy arrived at the lobby of SYX’s office building, the front desk receptionist intercepted her.
’Good morning, ma'am. May I ask for the purpose of your visit?"
’I would like to meet your CEO," Cordy replied politely.
' Do you have an appointment, ma'am?"
’No.’
’Then I'm sorry, ma'am. You can't meet him if you don't have one-he's really busy,’ the receptionist said
mildly.
Cordy pursed her lips, but she could imagine how busy a newly established company would be,
especially since they had their hands in so many cookie jars.
And barging in might affect the CEO's scheduling, so after some thought, she asked, "What time does
he usually leave work?"
"There's no telling. Sometimes early, sometimes late-there were occasions where he stayed overnight,"
the receptionist replied.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe man was really giving it his all, was he not? It was hardly surprising that the company developed
so rapidly.
’I see. Thank you," Cordy said politely.
"You're welcome.’
Cordy left the front desk but not the lobby.
Robin, who was with her, was surprised. "Ms. Sachs?"
"We have no choice but to wait."
"But the receptionist just said he might work overnight—"
"And we'll wait overnight."
Robin said nothing else at that, knowing all too well that Cordy was the type who never rested until she
got what she wanted.
In that sense, it was not surprising that she carried Starstream Group to the pinnacle of North City's
businesses on her own.
Cordy settled on the guest's couch, bringing out her laptop and continuing to work since she was
prepared for being denied a meeting with the CEO.
In the spacious and extravagantly decorated office on the top floor of the building, Randy was
reporting, "Ms. Sachs is waiting for you downstairs."
John paused just before he signed a piece of paper, his lips curling upward right then.
He expected her to come to him... to be precise, he had arranged for that, though he was surprised he
would move that quickly.
"Bring her coffee and something to eat," he instructed.
Randy was left stunned for a moment. "You're not letting her in?"
He was well aware of why his boss arranged for the reshuffling—what else could it be, other than
goading Ms. Sachs to go to him?
And yet, he was not meeting her now that she came...
Nonetheless, Randy replied, "Yes, Mr. Levine."
"And don't let her see you."
"Yes, sir."
Randy quickly told the front desk receptionist to bring Cordy coffee and confectionery, even adding
telling her not to tell Cordy that it was brought specifically for her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCordy was actually surprised by the service, and the front desk receptionist told her mildly, "It's just the
hospitality for guests here at SYX Corp. Please enjoy."
"Thank you," Cordy replied and turned toward Robin. ’Remember to tell everyone to learn from SYX's
hospitality.’
"Yes, ma'am."
In the afternoon, the receptionist approached Cordy again, this time bringing her a lunch box filled with
scrumptious food. "Please enjoy."
Cordy was left staring at it, wondering if SYX had too much money to spend -what other company had
such profound standards in hospitality?
And after that, she was served tea with decorum expected of five-star hotels and an exquisite dinner in
the evening.
It would have been no different if she were fine dining at some expensive restaurant, and she
wondered if SYX just wanted to avoid outside criticism while showing the public how great their
hospitality was.
And soon after dinner, she was brought more tea and dessert, along with supper at 10 PM.
Cordy turned toward Robin then. "How much do you suppose all those meals cost?"
Robin shrugged and asked gingerly, "Should we follow their example too?" "I'm not that crazy."
