Chapter 174
Xara was stunned, and her mind went blank
James frowned and glanced at Scarlett.
His gaze sent shivers down her spine. She immediately dropped to the floor, her body trembling The high-ranking officials were baffled. That was Ms. Brooks, the person in charge of Transgenerational Group. Why was she kneeling? For a moment, they were bewildered. James said in a low voice, “What are you doing? Get up.”
“Yes, James.”
Scarlett immediately got up and stood by the side, quivering in fear. James went on, “Why are they here? Dismiss them.” Scarlett immediately instructed, “What are you standing here for? Get back to work.”
“Yes.”
They swiftly left the scene.
Soon, only James, Scarlett, and Xara remained outside the Transgenerational Tower.
“J-James, I…” Scarlett wore a worried expression. She had only wanted to make James feel welcomed and never expected to offend him. If she had known, she would have come alone.
James waved her off. “Alright now, I’m not blaming you for this. Just don’t repeat it next time. By the way, this is Xara, my cousin. She came to Cansington looking for a job. See to her needs.”
“Yes.”
Upon hearing that Xara was James’ cousin, she instantly nodded. She approached him and took the suitcase from his hands. “James, allow me.”
James nodded and ordered, “Assign her a position according to her abilities. I do not want people leeching off the company, nor do I wish to see incompetent people holding high positions just because of their connections.”
Huh?
Scarlett was puzzled.
What did he mean by this?
“What? still don’t get it?” James glanced at Scarlett, who had a baffled look on her face.” Don’t let her leech off the company just because she’s my cousin. She’ll be treated the same as all other employees.”
“Understood.”
Meanwhile, Xara was still in a daze and had not recollected her senses.
Had James been the owner of Transgenerational New City and the brand new Trade Financial Center all along?
She found it baffling Who was James? How wealthy was he? Why would a man who bought the Transgenerational New City marry into the Callahans?
