Chapter 462: Chapter 462

Balfour wrapped up the contract signing with the Arab chief in the conference room, both standing up for a friendly handshake farewell.

Before leaving the Arab chief had some words for Balfour.

Balfour, not speaking a lick of Arabic, tilted his head and turned to Ellinor, his translator, asking, “What’s he saying?”

With a professional smile, Ellinor replied, “Mr Howard, this collaboration was a blast for the gentleman.

He hopes that the next decade will continue with friendly. cooperation with the Howard Group. They love doing business with a sincere, responsible, and easy going company like the Howard Group, unlike other stodgy companies.” Balfour was taken aback. The usually high and mighty Arab corporation rarely showed such warmth Could this all be because Ellinor’s killer translation skills had made the client super pleased?

Balfour pondered for a moment, then returned the customer’s smile and told Ellinor, “Tell him we’re also looking forward to the next decade.”

Ellinor relayed the message in Arabic, adding a humorous touch The chief laughed heartily, gave Balfour and Ellinor a big bear hug, waved, and merrily left with his entourage.

Balfour was pleased with this outcome and looked at Ellinor with a trace of admiration in his eyes “Ms.

Mendoza, see the client off.”

Balfour’s command took Ellinor by surprise, but she quickly got the message and smiled, “Sure thing, Mr. Howard”

She was officially a part of the Howard Group.

After seeing off the client and returning to the building, Balfour had already left the company Quinton led her to a spot near the entrance of the CEO’s office and said, “This’ll be your workstation.

Mr. Howard will call you by intercom if he needs anything. Don’t enter his office unless he calls for you.

Got it?”

Ellinor nodded, “Got it.”

After the Arab deal, Quinton’s impression of Ellinor had somewhat improved and he acknowledged her work ability.

But that didn’t mean he liked Ellinor as a person He remembered how she had been disrespectful to Mr. Howard and how she had bullied Ms. Howard.

After giving Ellinor some work pointers, he turned to leave to attend to his own business.

“Quinton!”

Ellinor called after him.

Quinton stopped, looking serious, “What now?”

Ellinor waved him over, indicating that what she had to say wasn’t for loud mouths.

Quinton frowned, thinking that the newly hired Ellinor was a real headache.

But he still moved closer and said, “Spit it out!”

Ellinor asked earnestly, “Does Theo often come here to see Mr. Howard?”

At this question, a hint of wariness flashed in Quinton’s eyes. Why was she asking if Mr. Blanchet came here often? Was she interested in Ms. Howard’s man?

“Mr. Blanchet almost never comes here. Yesterday was a special case. Why do you ask?”
