The original plan was for Marcus to go on a work inspection with the boss of Silver Edge Co. in the afternoon, but since it wasn't that important, it could be postponed.
Cornelia nodded and said, "I'll get in touch with Silver Edge Co. right away to reschedule."
Marcus lifted his head from the stack of documents and looked at her. He had noticed yesterday at the airport that she seemed mentally exhausted, and even after a night's rest, she still didn't appear well.
He frowned a little, confused, "You don't have to work anymore today."
What did that mean?
Cornelia was surprised, "President Hartley, are you firing me?"
When did he say he was going to fire her?
He thought she did an excellent job; although she had only been working with him for half a year, their rapport was as good as that with Ben, who had been by his side for ten years.
Even if she wanted to resign one day, he might not be able to let her go.
He added, "Do you think you're in the right state to meet clients now?"
Cornelia felt guilty, "I'm sorry, President Hartley, I..."
Marcus didn't give her a chance to finish, "I'm giving you a paid day off, aren't you satisfied?"
So it was just a break, not being fired. Cornelia breathed a sigh of relief.
She smiled, "Thank you, President Hartley, for your concern!"
