His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2383

Avery stared at him in shock.

"Avery, don't overthink this. The kids are growing up, and they have their own thoughts. As long as they don't make horrible mistakes and focus on their studies, we don't have to be so nervous," Elliot said and left, leaving Avery to walk into the building.

As soon as she entered the office, Avery immediately called the new Vice President, who hurried to Avery's office shortly after.

Avery was slightly taken by surprise as she did not think that he would look so young. Though she knew that he was actually in his forties, he seemed to have maintained his health well, and he looked to be in his thirties.

"Hello, President Tate. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Melvin Thornton. Glad to meet your acquaintance. You look far more beautiful than you do in photos."

"Hello, Mr. Thornton."

"There's no need for such formality! Just call me Melvin," he said. "Frankly, I feel a little hurt that you didn't invite me to your wedding."

She froze for a moment. "Hahaha! I'm sorry about that. The wedding on Christmas was planned by my friends so we didn't even know there was a wedding until the day of the wedding itself."

Melvin nodded. "So I heard, which is why I'm not as upset now."

"Hahaha! I'll bring some of the sweets we served during the wedding tomorrow."

"You are so kind! I thought that Elliot assigned Chad to manage the Bridgedale branch because he wanted me and Chad to compete against one another..."

"You've read too much into it. Chad was transferred simply because he wanted to live there. The two of you aren't supposed to be competitors. You need to work together," she said. "You will have to strengthen all forms of communication with the Bridgedale branch. Chad has worked for Elliot for many years, and I know for a fact that he's capable. I heard from Shaun that you've been working overseas and have recently decided to move back for your family. Shaun mentioned that you are good at your job, which is why I couldn't wait to give you a call as soon as I arrive."

"I don't really know Mr. Locklyn so he probably asked around about me. I just thought I could try this out since he was very sincere when he reached out to me. We actually think and act very differently," Melvin confessed. "I took a look at the company's operations, and with the company's current state, simply upgrading our products won't do. I've discussed with the R&D department and they've reached a standstill with the drones. It's going to be extremely difficult to make it any better at the moment, but the market demand still exists, so we need to switch up the way we think."
