?Chapter 585


    When Zoey returned to the HR Department, she saw Damian Worthington and Mandy Reed standing at her office door.


    "Good afternoon, Mr. Worthington, Ms. Reed," Zoey greeted them calmly.


    Damian, the CEO of 10KFresh, was a thin elderly man in his 60s, dressed in a gray suit and trench coat.


    Mandy, Zoey''s superior, was apetent career woman in her 40s. She was dressed in a stylish winter outfit that conveyed elegance and sophistication.


    "Zoey, have you prepared the documents I requested?" Mandy asked, smiling.


    "Yes, Ms. Reed. I''ll get them for you right away.''


    Zoey entered her office, retrieved some documents from her desk drawer, and quickly returned to Damian and Mandy.


    Mandy took the document and skimmed through them.


    "Who''s Howard Lawson?" she asked, puzzled.


    Zoey exined, ''Howard is an employee at Storehouse 8, where we handle the goods delivery for Maple Hill. Since the shipment isrger than usual this time, we brought in an additional warehouse manager to assist with unloading.''


    Mandy continued to review Howard''s file, her brows furrowing.


    "He had a history of mental health issues?"


    With a sympathetic expression, Zoey responded, "Howard''s situation is quite unfortunate. His parents are both teachers, and he has been an exemry student from a young age. However, just before the SATs, he developed a neurological condition.


    "Fortunately, his aunt took him abroad for treatment, and he was cured. However, he isn''t as sharp as he used to be after his recovery. It''s difficult for him to learn new skills, which is why he was sent to Yorksle to find a job."


    Mandy sighed after hearing Howard''s story.


    "Poor thing. He''s almost the same age as my son!"


    After finishing reviewing Howard''s file, Mandy handed it to Damian and asked, "Mr. Worthingon, would you like to take a look?"


    Damian replied casually, "No. As long as you don''t see anything wrong, I''m fine with it."


    Damian had poached Mandy from anotherpany and had worked for her for over 20 years. Thus, she had hisplete trust.


    "Alright. Let''s meet them now. Zoey, pleasee with us.''


    "Yes, Ms. Reed."


    Half an hourter, the representative from Golden Happiness Group sat in Meeting Room 1, reviewing the delivery personnel''s documents.


    The representative was a woman around Mandy''s age. She sat expressionlessly in the chairman''s seat, her presence intimidating Mandy, Damian, and Zoey. A secretary with a cold and distant demeanor stood behind her


    Zoey nced at the woman''s badge, which read: J Dalton, Employee ID 0038, Director of the Supervisory Department.


    Zoey immediately tensed up. She didn''t expect J, a veteran at Golden Happiness Group, to be present. No


    wonder she had such amanding presence.


    Still, Zoey wondered why the supervisory department was involved. They were responsible for overseeing all departments within thepany, so their authority was immense.


    Zoey couldn''t help but worry that J would notice something amiss. If Carlisle''s cover were exposed, Zoey''s future would be in serious jeopardy.


    The thought made Zoey involuntarily swallow hard.


    Noticing Zoey''s subtle reaction, J observed her for a moment with an icy gaze.


    "You seem nervous," J remarked.


    Not daring to meet J''s eyes, Zoey lowered her head and replied, "Your formidable presence is making me nervous, Ms. Dalton."


    Rather than making up excuses, Zoey admitted her anxiety but turned it into ttery.


    J''s eyes narrowed.


    "Is that so?"


    J''s gaze sent a shiver down Zoey''s spine, causing her eyshes to tremble uncontrobly.


    Zoey questioned if J had spotted something amiss in the document.


    Suddenly, Mandy chuckled and added, "Ms. Dalton certainly has amanding presence. Even with my years


    of experience, I find it quite intimidating, let alone someone as young as Zoey."


    "Enough with the ttery,'' J responded, continuing to review the documents.


    Although her face remained impassive, she was pleased with theirments. Their fear reflected her authority.


    After a while, J noticed Howard''s history of mental health issues. Instead of raising questions immediately, she quietly finished reviewing all the documents.


    Once she was done, she requested, ''Please ask Howard Lawson toe here''


    Zoey promptly called Janice, the storehouse team leader.


    "Ms. Hond, please bring Howard to Meeting Room 1."Text ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
