Someone’s causing this from behind the scenes!?
Kennedy found Simon’s answer a little unsettling.
He furrowed his brows slightly and said in a low voice, “Ryan, tomorrow morning, I would like you to
investigate our little squabble with the partners and suppliers. Find out which family is responsible for
throwing shades on us.”
“Understood, Grandpa.” Ryan held his head high. He was being snobbish toward his cousin.
Hmph! What is there to be proud of? I was just a tad slower in figuring things out.
Simon pouted his lips in secret while lowering his head.
Inside the Logistics Department of the Western District Office in Paramount, Kiran Dupont, the office
director walked into one of the regular offices on the third floor. It was situated near the tail end of a
corridor.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs soon as he entered the office, he put on a grin and reported to the man inside. “Chief, someone’s
looking for you.”
Jaylen was studying one of the documents intensely. He lifted his head to meet the voice. “Director,
please don’t call me Chief. I’m just a lowly deputy.”
“Hahaha. It’s just a matter of time.” Kiran, who had spent the last ten years in the logistics department,
replied to him with a smile. “Chief, you’re young and capable. You’ll definitely climb the ranks in no
time!”
Kiran’s jolly attitude was drastically different from his cold and arrogant self. Jaylen was no stranger to
this. He had been in the Logistics Department for close to four years now. During this time, he was met
with many two-faced, ultrarealistic personalities.
The only reason why the director was treating him with such friendliness was due to his family’s recent
promotion. The Mondez family head was favored by the State Governor. He was instantly promoted to
the position of State Office Director in Paramount. The State Director’s authority was all encompassing.
Often times, people referred to him as the Ruler of Paramount.
A few years back, the old family head of Mondez chose the wrong team to side with. As a result,
Mondez’s influence deteriorated with each passing day. Now, to have their family head appointed as
State Office Director, it was no doubt a much needed come back for the Mondez.
Once Albert establishes his presence in the State Office, in the near future, Mondez’s influence would
spread across the whole Paramount, reaching heights that were never seen before.
For that reason, those who mocked and exploited them in the past had to quickly replace their scorn
with a smile. They were all eager to get on Mondez’s good book.
Coming back to the Logistics Department. Previously, this old man, Kiran, was oblivious to Jaylen’s
existence. Now, he was willing to put aside his pride and showered Jaylen with his newfound kindness.
Jaylen wasn’t blind to the situation. He had to control his temper and not resort to violence.
He faced his head toward Kiran and nodded smilingly. “Director, thank you for coming by and letting me
know. May I know who’s looking for me?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Hehe. No problem. Just a small matter.” Kiran waved at him. He was grinning from ear to ear. “Do you
want me to bring him over instead?”
Jaylen smiled after peering into his eyes. “Sure. Thank you.”
“Chief, you’re far too polite.” Kiran puffed his chest. “Let me know next time if you need anything. Even
though the Logistic Department has little to offer, I’m still able to make things happen for you.”
“Certainly.” Jaylen nodded at his remark.
Minutes later, Kiran led a man into the office. Matt, who was humiliated by Jacob during the class
reunion entered the room. Since he was no one important, he felt uneasy. Matt wouldn’t have been
able to muster the courage to set foot in here if it wasn’t out of spite. Furthermore, Albert’s recent
promotion gave him the last push which he needed. The Logistic Department of the West District Office
had always served an important purpose in Paramount. It was expected that the people entering and
leaving this place were all from reputable families.
