Chapter 116

After her parents returned to their hometown, Joey kept seeing each other and she spent the rest of her time in hardworking and occasionally visiting Sarah’s sick brother Patrick at another hospital.

Due to John Walter’s generosity, Patrick had received the best care that money could buy, including the ward, medicine and chemotherapy measures.

His condition was already under very good control in a short time.

However, Sarah still found it hard to cheer herself up, because John Walter’s new favorite twin sisters had really given her a hard time. Sarah was bullied by them in the office every day and John Walter hadn't done anything about it. Her fellow sufferers Milla and Nana had been fed up with the twins and handed in their notice.

The company couldn’t find the right replacements on short notice. As for the twins, they were John Walter’s secretaries in name only. In fact, they were the least qualified for the job. All of a sudden, Sarah had to bear the burden of the workload of five all by herself.

Sarah had worked her ass off and stayed up late to work overtime on a daily basis. Apart from that, she had to satisfy John Walter’s sexual needs once in a while. Therefore, she had lost a lot of weight in less a month, which took a toll on her breasts that she had been always proud of. She became even more restless and dispirited.

Joey felt sorry for her.

However, an effect could not occur before its cause.

Sarah had ended up like this because she had made a terrible mistake in the past.

Joey wasn't aware that while she felt sorry for her Sarah, her own life would go through a major change soon.

One day, Joey was busy with her work. Suddenly, she was called by Amanda to the Administration Manager's Office.

“Amanda, is there anything I can do for you?”

Joey put down her work and went to Amanda’s office.

“Please take a seat!”

Amanda smiled and asked Joey to sit down. She came straight to the point, “Joey, I have something to tell you. It might be wonderful news for others, but I think you might not like it. It’s the company’s decision and as a member of the company, we’re supposed to respect and support any decision of the company. I hope you know that.”

Joey was surprised to hear the news. She looked at Amanda anxiously, “Amanda, what’s the news?”

The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me Chapter 115 You’re not my sister anymore Had she done something wrong and the company was going to fire her?

Amanda answered, “Don’t worry. It’s not a big deal. It's just that the General Manager gave an order today and asked the HR department to transfer you to the General Manager Office as his personal secretary.”

“What?”

Joey stood up in shock, “But why? I like my current position, why did the General Manager ask me to be his secretary?”

She had learnt her lesson in the Walter Group. She had done a great job as the administrative director, but John Walter had suddenly decided to transfer her to the President Office as his Chief Secretary General. She was clueless last time and now she had to find out why.

Speaking of the General Manager of the CL Group, she had never met him in the past month.

There were two reasons. The first one was that Joey’s work didn’t involve the General Manager and Amanda was the one who got in touch with him whenever it came to the major matters in the Administration department. The second one was that the General Manager had always kept a low profile and few knew his real name in the company. Everyone referred to him as the General Manager. He had his own elevator and walkway. It was hard for anyone in the company to see him in person if he hadn’t decided to make an appearance once in a while.

It seemed that Amanda had expected Joey to react to the news in such an intense way. She smiled calmly, “Don't get so excited. If there must be a reason, I believe it’s a very simple one. It’s your outstanding performance at work. He has been very impressed with your work reports and conference briefings. I bet he has made such a decision long ago. To be honest, in my opinion, you would be well qualified as a secretary and your work experience in the Walter Group will suffice to prove it.”

Joey sat down helplessly. She thought Amanda could be right, because she knew her own advantages very well and she had never met the General Manager. Thus she didn’t think that he had wanted her as his secretary for other reasons. Yet she didn’t want it anyway.

“Amanda, may I say no? I’m very happy with my job now and I’m not interested in secretary work at all.”

She had had enough with John Walter in her last job. She really hated the idea of being bossed around by those polished scoundrels again.
