That being said, she had no idea what was about to happen.
The Slone family was not a small family, to say the least, and their family business was doing really well. In fact, Yelena returned for the sake of taking over the company and to assist her father, relieving some workloads off him.
“Give this person a call and let her send some flowers over.” Yelena, in the office, passed her assistant a business card. “Make sure she personally sends it over.”
Within a short moment, Delilah received a call and asked for Joan's help.
Joan accepted without a moment's hesitation since it was Delilah asking for help.
“Hi there.” Joan arrived at the reception counter of the Slone Enterprise not long after. “This is the bonsai you ordered. Where do I put it?”
“Miss Slone's office. Head up to the thirteenth floor,” the receptionist answered without looking.
Shortly after, Joan arrived at the thirteenth floor carrying the bonsai.
“Come in!”
A woman's voice came from the office.
“Hi there. This is the bonsai you ordered.” Joan smiled at the woman on the sofa.
The woman slowly stood up and approached her, emanating a chilly vibe.
Why does she look so aggressive? Joan lowered her head slightly as she was a bit intimidated.
“So you are Joan Watts?” Yelena asked.
How does she know my name?
“Yes, I am.”
Yelena smiled as she looked at Joan. What a delicate-looking woman she is.
“So, you're the woman that Caiden has been pursuing?” she probed.
Huh? Why is Caiden involved all of a sudden? Oh lord. Don't tell me, is this one of that jerk's tricks? At that instance, Joan became alerted, focusing all her attention on the woman in front of her.
Let me see what's up your sleeves, Miss Slone.
