"Thank you." Steffan had no reaction whatsoever, so why should she feel nervous? Jenna thought as she sat down, with the burden lifted off her shoulders.
When Melvin saw Jenna coming over, he raised his eyebrows and stared at her slyly.
Jenna felt stuffy at his near voyeuristic gaze.
Melvin's sly eyes were as blue as ever. The only difference was that the bridge of his nose had been bandaged with a gauze. His wound also had not recovered completely. Even so, it seemed that he still had not rectified his lecherous nature, and his behavior was still as mischievous as ever.
"Ahem." Steffan cleared his throat "Dory, Master Adames will be joining Yintern Group from today onwards. The two of you will be working with each other to design cars. I hope to be amazed at a groundbreaking model at the fair next month."
Did Melvin really join Yintern Group? Jenna was a little surprised. She remembered Zevulon mentioning Melvin coming to work in Yintern Group, and to her surprise, he really came here.
She mused inwardly, "Since when did Mr. Tangger become so powerful!"
As if he had seen through her doubts, Melvin said faintly, "Okay, I may need to put in a disclaimer here. I'm here because I don't want to go against my mother's wishes. It's all because you people have the ability to win her over."
As he said this, he lifted the teacup to his lips, a very reluctant expression was on his face.
Jenna blinked her eyes.
From Steffan's information on Melvin, she knew that Melvin was a filial son. He listened to his mother, Libera, especially. It seemed that he was right.
"Master Adames, I hope that our future collaboration will proceed smoothly." Jenna smiled slightly as she spoke in a generous and courteous manner. She employed an unpretentious modus operand! in handling Melvin's previous indifference towards her. After all, it was inevitable that they would come into contact with each other again in the future.
When Melvin heard these words from such a beauty, what with the past and all, they had all been flushed out of his mind. He wanted to reach out to shake hands with Jenna, but when he saw Steffan's cold expression, he immediately withdrew his hand and sat still.
"Dory, Mr. Tangger's office will be right next to yours. It will be more convenient for you to communicate with him in the future," Steffan said as he turned his head towards Jenna.
"Okay." Jenna nodded.
"Okay then, that will be all. If you need anything, then just let me know." He stood up and walked back to his desk.
It was obvious that they were allowed to leave.
Alas, the atmosphere was a little different.
Jenna observed Steffan in front of his desk, buried in his documents. His side profile was stoic and cold. This was definitely a complete turnaround from the usual warmth on his face he always had before.
It seemed that he had already figured it out, and this was also good.
