Chapter 44 - 44: No Choice But to Endure (8)
After speaking, Steve Burton added, “And, don’t cry. If you cry, leave Pristine’s
Enterprises immediately!”
Upon hearing Steve’s harsher words, Olivia Foster swallowed the tears that were about to fall from her eyes.
Steve Burton sat comfortably on the couch, flipping through the documents one by one. Then he frowned, lifted his head and said to Olivia Foster with a somewhat stern tone, “Why didn’t you bring the most important partnership agreement?”
Upon hearing these words, Olivia was immediately scared, forgetting the nasty words Steve had just said. She bent down, checked the documents one by one, and found that she really had forgotten to bring the partnership agreement.
“Who prepared the partnership agreement?”
The color drained from Olivia’s face. She had been very busy at work last Friday and had not noticed who had printed the partnership agreement.
However, such an oversight in her work would definitely attract criticism.
Moreover, her father had told her to try to remove Ruby Gregory from Pristine’s Enterprises as soon as possible…
Last week, in Mr. Burton’s office, his attitude towards Ruby Gregory was disastrous. She might have forced herself into Pristine’s Enterprises, but if she now implicated Ruby in this major mistake, Mr. Burton might kick her out of Pristine’s Enterprises!
Thinking of this, Olivia calmed herself down and said, “The partnership agreement was prepared and printed by Ruby Gregory. I asked her to place it in my office documents on Friday night, but surprisingly she didn’t.”
Continuing, Olivia said, “It’s only four subway stops from the company to here, with a distance of a few hundred meters in between. It’s only 8:05 now, if she delivers it, it won’t take more than twenty minutes. I’ll call Ruby now.”
After saying this, Olivia walked out of the lounge and made a phone call to the secretary’s office.
She had already calculated the time it would take from the company to here for Mr. Burton. If Ruby Gregory could not deliver the partnership agreement before 8:30, then that would be due to her lack of ability!
Given Mr. Burton’s strict demands on employees, Ruby Gregory is definitely in a precarious situation!
At eight o’clock, Ruby Gregory swiped her card and entered the Pristine’s Enterprises office building.
There were quite a few people taking the elevator, Ruby had to wait for two rounds before she got on and reached to the top floor, before she could put down her bag, Maya Mitchell shoved a document into her hand and said, “Hurry up and deliver this document to Mr. Burton at the clubhouse, it’s needed for the meeting!”
Before Ruby could react, Maya added, “Ruby, Mr. Burton said that if this document isn’t delivered before 8:30, he’ll have you kicked out of Pristine’s Enterprises!”
