Chapter 175 Maeve stood up and reached for the documents on her desk. Coincidentally, on the first day of her Internship, she was assigned to a company that collaborated with the Brooks Group.
TO outsiders, Tomkins Corporation seemed to have little economic dealings with the Brooks Group, with only a few project collaborations in the past.
But in reality, Tomkins Corporationâs economic growth over the years was closely tied to the Brooks Group. The relationship between these two families was not ordinary.
If it hadnât been for her recent investigation into dealings with the Brooks Group, she wouldnât have known. about the connection between these two companies.
It It seemed that Sergio had left quite a few tricks up his sleeve.
The internship was dull and consisted mostly of menial tasks. At that moment, Maeveâs phone rang. It was a message from Bryce. Bryce had sent a photo of her slacking off at her desk.
Maeve immediately realized and looked up to see Bryce standing outside the employee area, accompanied by a few assistants.
Bryce flashed her a casual smile.
Maeve remembered that Bryce had been thriving in the entertainment industry lately, even replacing Lucas Collins. Bryce was here at Tomkins Corporation today to discuss cooperation.
Tomkins Corporation was in the jewelry industry, focusing on domestic highâend brands. Bryce had put in a lot of effort to secure this deal with Tomkins Corporation. This guy really had some skills.
âMaeve, where are the files I asked you to organize?â Syndy sounded impatient.
Dealing with a new employee was already tiring, especially when their youthful faces constantly reminded her that she was no longer young.
âHere they are.â Maeve handed the files to Syndy.
Syndy glanced at the files casually, but she noticed that Maeveâs gaze was fixed outside. Following Maeveâs line of sight, Syndy caught sight of Bryce outside.
She naturally assumed that Maeve was flirting with Bryce and sarcastically remarked, âFocus on your assigned tasks and stop daydreaming about other things!â With that, Syndy turned and walked away.
Maeve didnât pay much attention to Syndyâs words. After all, she was only interning for a month, and she had no intention of getting involved in the affairs of this place.
During her lunch break, Maeve ordered some takeout and went outside the employee area to get a cup of hot water, but someone pulled her into a corner.
Bryce was wearing a trendy white suit with his chest exposed, revealing his smooth chest muscles. A silver earring adorned his left ear, adding to his allure.
Chapter 178 âMs. Scott, should you explain something?â
Maeve didnât intend to hide anything from Bryce. âIâm a student at Amenam University, you know?â
Bryce remained silent, waiting for Maeve to continue. Maeve explained, âAs n graduate student at Amenam University, thereâs an internship requirement, and the nahool assigned me here,â
Bryce seemed to be assessing the truth behind Maeveâs words.
Maeve pushed Bryce away, stating, âStrictly speaking, Iâm your boss. Why are you questioning your boss?â
âSorry. Iâve always felt like weâre partners,â Bryce corrected.
Maeve didnât argue with him.
She hadnât intended for Bryce to be her subordinate anyway. With Bryceâs potential to become a movie star in a few years, it made more sense to collaborate with him rather than have him work under her now.
It would be a winâwin partnership in the long run.
Maeve glanced around and noted the sceneâa male celebrity pulling away a junior employee during lunch break. If the security cameras caught sight of this, it would surely make headlines tomorrow.
