Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1106
As Xavier was staring at Bob, the latter quickly responded, âYes, Mr. Jackson has notified me. You
can leave the office now and focus on recording Mr. Jackson's daily schedule.â
Huh? Follow Xavier around and record his itinerary? But I've just accepted the assignment and didn't
have sufficient time to confirm my assistants. Is it okay to start working on this project now?
Xavier gave him an approving nod. However, seeing that Hannah was in doubt, he gestured for Bob
to convince her.
"Oh yes, Hannah, I've communicated with Jim about his new role. He's willing to work with you on
this interview. Since he's quite experienced in this aspect, I'm sure he'll be of great help to you.â Bob
faked a smile. How should I report to the top management about Jim's new pay scale?
Jim had a good portfolio in terms of interviewing company presidents. Teaming him up with
Hannah was a natural thing to do. However, Jim was reluctant to accept the role. Bob had to lure
him with a lucrative package in order not to disappoint Xavier. In the end, Jim agreed on the
condition that his salary was doubled.
Hannah was over the moon to learn that Jim had agreed to be her assistant. I was still thinking of a
way to talk to him about this. The amount of his monthly published work is triple of mine. Making
him my assistant was a dream. Who would want to work under someone less capable? It's great that
Mr. Dijon has managed to get him on board.
âThank you so much, Mr. Dijon.â
Seeing a smile appearing on Hannah's face again, Xavier uttered, âIndeed, thank you, Mr. Dijon.â
Bob was not born yesterday. Naturally, he knew the underlying meaning of Xavier's words.
Courteously, he replied, âDonât mention that, Mr. Jackson. It's only right to render support to the
talents undergoing continuous professional development. I'm sure you have a packed schedule
ahead, Mr. Jackson. There's nothing else on my side, so I'd better not take up too much of your
time. 1 can't afford to delay you any further.â
Hannah was completely baffled. I'm a great talent receiving training? How come I'm not aware of
this?
âHaha... All right, Mr. Dijon. I shall make a move now. I'll treat you to a good lunch one of these
days.â Xavier left with Hannah after engaging in small talk.
"Where are we going?â Hannah asked upon arriving at the entrance.
Xavier's lips curled up as he asked amiably, âIt's your call since you're promoted today.â
My call? I'm just following you around to record your itinerary. Why am I the one deciding?
She thought he was joking with her, so she simply responded, âMy call? Then, I say we go for a
buffet. We'll eat till we drop, all the way until they close at night.â
His grin deepened. Be careful what you wish for.
âSure, let's go for buffet.â
Tsk! I'll all in. Let's do it! He's the top guy in his company, after all. I don't believe that heâs got so
much time to spend. Moreover, what's there to be afraid of? I don't need to return to the office, and
I can eat all day long.
âSure, let's go!â With that, Hannah got into Xavier's car.
âTo a nearby restaurant, but make sure they have an excellent buffet,â he told his assistant, who was
sitting in the driver's seat.
"Huh? Are you sure?â Xavier's assistant gaped in disbelief. Is he joking? It's not his style to bring a
girl for a buffet.
"Hmm?"
âNoted. I'll make a phone call now.â Panicked, the assistant quickly gave in in order not to anger his
boss.
It was quite comical when Xavier's assistant started making phone calls to survey for the best buffet
in town.
Gazing at Xavier's serious face, Hannah asked doubtfully, âAre we really going for a buffet?â
