Three months later.
Spring arrived, and the flowers bloomed.
At the headquarters of Rovio in Chatterton Town.
This was already the 88th day of Karen Joy's internship at Rovio.
Although she was the precious daughter of Rovio's boss, Karen Joy did not take up a high position when she joined the company. Instead, she started from the bottom, as all interns did.
However, as she was around him a lot since she was a child, Kevin Kyle had a big influence over her. Besides, she had been learning a lot from Kevin in the past three months. Compared to the others, she made a lot of progress in her business acumen and managerial skills.
After the internship period, she passed the official entry assessment with her hard work. Her results surpassed a large number of interns. She successfully got into the secretarial team of the CEO's office at Rovio to begin the second course of her internship.
In the past, she never worried about the future of Rovio because Jayden was there. This meant that she always had someone to help her share the workload and burdens of the company.
However, it was different now. Her brother had left, and Little Precious was only eight years old. She had to help take some load off so that her father would not be exhausted.
"Karen Joy, the two o'clock meeting is about to begin, but I have not prepared the documents that Special Assistant Black asked me to prepare, can you help me with that?" One of the experienced employees on Kevin's secretarial team asked. She was usually very meticulous, but recently, she had made several careless mistakes. This was the third time!
In the last two times, seeing that Secretary Adams was so anxious that she was about to cry, Karen Joy immediately helped her and they prepared the documents together. Fortunately, they were on time and the meeting went on smoothly.
When the secretary asked Karen Joy for help for the third time, she smiled apologetically and said, "Secretary Adams, I'll help you prepare the documents together, but after the meeting, I hope you will consider resigning." Secretary Adams was shocked. "Why, why?" Karen Joy said calmly, "Within a month, you couldn't complete the tasks given by the superiors three times. I don't think Director Kyle needs someone like you here."
Secretary Adams was stunned and immediately explained, "Karen Joy, you know this, it's not that I don't work hard, I am just forgetful sometimes."
Karen Joy continued to speak while helping Secretary Adams prepare the documents, "Secretary Adams, you can explain it to Special Assistant Black, it's pointless if you explain to me."
Secretary Adams hurriedly said, "Karen Joy, I know I was careless, but please trust me, I will not make the same mistake again."
Karen Joy looked back at her and said, "Secretary Adams, this is what you told me the first and second time. I believed you. But you can't fool a person again for the third time, no matter in your personal life or at work."
Karen Joy's firm attitude made Secretary Adams anxious. She reached out to hold Karen Joy's hand and pleaded bitterly, "Karen Joy, I have a family at home, please help me this time. I promise..."
Karen Joy decisively interrupted Secretary Adams and said seriously, "Secretary Adams, there are many employees in Rovio that have families to look after. Do you know that a tiny mistake from an employee might result in Rovio losing a contract, which could then cause many employees in Rovio to lose their jobs? Since we have chosen this career, we should try our best to do our jobs, and we can't always create excuses for ourselves."
Secretary Adams was speechless.
She lowered her head slightly and couldn't defend herself anymore. She was defeated by what Karen Joy said.
"Director Kevin, are you satisfied with our daughter's performance these days?" Karen Daly knew that her question was a little unnecessary. She knew she could get her answer by just reading his expressions anyway.
She clearly knew that Kevin was very satisfied with Karen Joy's performance. Karen asked him anyway because she wanted to hear Kevin praise their daughter.
"Yes." Kevin nodded slightly and didn't intend to say any other words of praise.
