Suggestion letters were set up to increase efficiency, but it had now become an outlet for employees to report someone.
Jude, who came early, handed the letter to Samantha with his usual smile on his
face.
“Ms. Meadows, please handle this personally.”
The content of the letter mentioned that she was like a dictator, and it made them
feel anxious at work.
“I don’t think there’s anything I need to handle. Anyone who wishes to leave may do so. There’s plenty of other people anyway.”
Samantha tore the letter and threw it into the bin with a hint of a smile in her eyes.
Although the incident was quite annoying, it also meant that there was a lack of
management in the company. It seemed that Samantha wouldn’t need to exert too.

When Linda arrived at work in the morning, she didn’t catch Samantha in a
frustrated state. Instead, she saw the pieces of letter in the bin.
“Ms. Meadows, you should have a look at the details of SL Series in the design
department. Oh, and we have a meeting later,” Linda gently reminded.
After Samantha composed herself, she entered the meeting room with Linda.
Everyone from the design department was there. Kendrick, who had gone to a
business meeting, didn’t join this meeting. He relinquished all the authority to
Samantha.
She stood in front of the screen and was about to display her slides when someone
said, “Ms. Meadows, SL Series is fine. It would be a waste of time to have another
meeting on it.”
Linda shot a satisfied look to the girl who spoke up.

“How much do you know about SL Series?”
“Everything, of course.”
“Alright, then use my slides to explain it to everyone.”
Samantha sat in the empty seat at the side.

However, the contents were entirely unrelated to the design department. It even included information about building materials and site details. Everyone exchanged. puzzled glances, unsure of how to handle the situation with Samantha.
Unaware of the situation, Linda could only shoot the girl a quick, puzzled look.
The girl wore a pained expression, not knowing where to begin.
Samantha’s smile deepened. She gently tapped her fingers against the smooth desk.
She knew that Linda would not let things go easily, so she had prepared herself for the meeting today. She was unafraid of whatever Linda might throw her
way.
“Why aren’t you starting?”
Samantha pulled her hand back, placing it on the back of the chair.
“This is not what the design department should know…”
“How much time can it save you by knowing these venues? Or, let’s talk about the
time for showcasing SL Series. Even if the budget and lighting aren’t your direct.
concerns, don’t you think that it’s still necessary for you to understand?”
Samantha’s words were enough to silence everyone in the room.
The girl went back to her seat embarrassedly, but Samantha didn’t reprimand her. She just stood there and explained it all clearly to everyone. She didn’t waste any
time.

“Mr. Ford.”
Samantha greeted him simply and was ready to leave in another direction.
However, Kendrick grabbed her arms.
“Let’s eat together.”
The people who still remained in the conference room hesitated to move. They just stood inside, waiting for the two individuals at the door to leave quickly.
As the lunch was free, Samantha didn’t reject the offer.
Arriving at the restaurant, Kendrick didn’t even ask Samantha’s opinion before
ordering the dishes.
Samantha merely stared out the window with a bored look.
“What’s wrong? Did they upset you?”
Kendrick returned the menu to the waiter with a smile.
Kendrick clasped his hands together, lifting them slightly. His eyes took on a subtle golden hue in the faint sunlight. It exuded a charming presence.
“Nah.”
Samantha yawned lazily.
Kendrick didn’t force the conversation. After a simple lunch, they delved into the
next round of work.
The days passed in a monotonous routine, with no significant highlights. Since the kidnapping incident, Kendrick’s attitude toward her had turned indifferent. Linda
didn’t stay in the CEO’s office for too long and was reassigned to the secretary’s
office.

Kendrick watched as Samantha, who had been working lazily just a moment ago,
