Xara replied, “I’m responsible for bringing in business on Food Street.”
Cyrus hurriedly added, “Here’s the thing, Xara. We also plan to set up a business at Transgenerational Group. However, it’s only open to large corporations at the moment. Since you’re a high-ranking official, could you use your connections to allow my family to establish ourselves there?”
“Umm…”
Xara was in a difficult position.
The company’s rules stated that all forms of corruption and cronyism were forbidden. If found guilty, the consequences would be dire.
However, she could not just turn down her family’s request.
She looked at James. Seeing that James remained silent, she contemplated and nodded. “I can’t decide by myself. I’ll speak to Ms. Brooks once I get back.”
“That’s great!” Cyrus exclaimed. “As expected of Xara, she’s now a department manager at Transgenerational Group.”
Zacchaeus wore a smug look.
He was proud to have a daughter like Xara.
After realizing the position Xara holds, everyone immediately started currying favor with her.
“Xara, since you’re now leading a comfortable life, mind helping me out here? Could you arrange a small position like a supervisor in your department for me?”
“Xara, my daughter just graduated college, but she can’t seem to find a decent job. Why don’t you take her along to Cansington? You can arrange a tiny position for her. We’re not asking for much. It’s fine as long as her monthly salary’s around fifty to sixty thousand.”
Xara was in a bind and wanted to decline.
However, her father readily agreed.
“We’re one big family. Of course she’ll help you out with these tiny matters.”
“Dad…” Xara shot him a look of resentment.
He was creating trouble for her.
Though she was a department manager at Transgenerational, in which a department’s scale was equivalent to a subsidiary, the company had an independent human resource department.
All positions in each department and subsidiary had to be approved by the human resources department before they were submitted to Ms. Brooks for final approval.
