Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 68

"Yvonne, I heard that you got cornered again?”

Yvonne palmed her forehead in exasperation. "I don't even know what's up with them. They gathered around me and asked me about the team building. Point is, I don't know the answer to most of their questions!"

"It's because you're down to earth that they dared look for you. They wouldn't dare do it if it were the other three secretaries," Lynette said, pursing her lips.

"Down to earth, what?" Yvonne was speechless.

"You don't know huh? It has to do with your previous identity. You were just a low-level employee like all of us before this. Although you got lucky and became Mr. Lancaster's secretary, you came from entry-level still, s o everyone feels closer to you," Lynette explained as she drank some water.

It struck Yvonne with realization. "That’s why they come to me every time there’s a rumor in our company."

"Those were trivial matters. It's different this time," Lynette said mysteriously.

Yvonne side-eyed her. "What’s so different? It’s just a team building event. I really don’t know what's there t o ask about."

"Exactly why you have a lot to learn about. I told you the last time, right? Mr. Lancaster allocated a big sum for this team building trip and dividing it per employee, each one gets quite the amount. Everyone's keeping their eyes on the profit. They only want cash. They don't want to go on the trip." Lynette wagged her fingers with a look that was waiting to be admired.

Yvonne was thoughtful while stroking her chin." That's the case huh... Looks like I really have a lot more to learn.”

She patted the big stack of information on her desk and sighed.

With her attention attracted, Lynette asked, "What are these?"

"Information on the team building. I was told to sort through them by my senior."

"There's so much and you’re asked to do it alone. You aren’t being picked on, are you?" Lynette looked skeptical as she thumbed through the documents randomly.

"What are you thinking?" Yvonne took back the documents that Lynette picked up and said, "This isn’t being picked on. The team building involves a large sum, and it’s not something a new secretary like me gets to come in touch with. The senior must be training me.”

"For real?" Lynette was still doubtful. "I’ve only ever heard about seniors being harsh to the newbies,

especially in big companies like ours. Are they really training you up?"

"Mm, Mr. Lancaster has told them to." Yvonne beamed proudly.

When Henry told her to learn from the three secretaries previously, he had asked them to pay extra attention to her.

"Mr. Lancaster?" Lynette's eyes were wide. "No way, Yvonne. Mr. Lancaster regards you so highly?"

"I don't think so." Yvonne thought about it seriously. "H e probably thinks that I can't be too incompetent since I'm his secretary, so he's asked them to teach me."

"Yeah, I think you're right.” Lynette believed her reasoning. Looking at the piling documents on her table, she said, "Alright then, I'll leave you to work.

Dive in, I should be going back too. Otherwise, I'll be checked on."

"Shoo, shoo, off you go." Yvonne waved.

After Lynette left, she took a deep breath and went back to her working mode...

A few days passed in the blink of an eye.

Yvonne came down carrying her suitcase. When Henry heard her heaving pants, he turned to check on her and wore a deep frown when he caught sight of the girl.

"Yvonne Frey, what have you put in there?"

Yvonne patted her extra-large suitcase. "Nothing much but they're all necessities."

"Necessities?" Henry got up from the couch and went t o carry the suitcase, almost failing to lift it up the first time due to the weight.

He put the suitcase down with a glum look. "Yvonne Frey, are you going to a team building event or are you moving houses? Why are you using such a big suitcase and filling it to the brim when you’re going o n a trip?"

"To the brim?" Yvonne looked at him innocently. "I still have things I haven’t packed."

The corners of Henry's eyes twitched. "What else are you packing?"
