When She Stops Playing Nice (Hale Saxon)

Noah arrived at the office building of Top Shrine Jewelry.

"What are you here for? The security guard stopped him and asked.

Noah tidied up his suit. "I'm here for work. Mr. Wilson hired me directly."

The guard raised an eyebrow and replied, "Is that so? Then call Mr. Wilson to verify, I must ensure no one unknown or suspicious enters the company."

Noah sneered and pointed at the security guard. "Wait and see."

The security guard clasped his hands together and said calmly, "Sure, I'll wait while you make that call, buddy"

Noah pulled out his phone and messaged Ronnie. What's going on? You told me to come for a job. Didn't you say that you had already informed them? Now I'm blocked at the door? Are you messing with me?]

Ronnie replied instantly, Sorry, Noah, I don't know what's happening. Let me c check with Mr. Wilson I Noah urged, [Hurry up]

Ronnie responded, [On it.]

After sending the message, Noah felt a little uneasy. The guard raised an eyebrow at him again while he snorted and started tapping his leg nervously.

A moment later, Spencer's secretary hurried downstairs. The guard turned around at the sound of footsteps and immediately dropped his smirk. The secretary rushed up to Noah and apologized, "Mr. Miller, so sorry for the delay as I was in a meeting with Mr. Wilson just now. Please come in."

Noah's spirits lifted instantly and he adjusted his suit before looking smugly at the guard, "It's fine."

The guard awkwardly scratched his nose. "Mr. Miller, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were here for work. My apologies. May I ask what position you are applying for?" Noah didn't know himself but put on airs and turned to the secretary. "What position did Mr. Wilson arrange for me?"

The emphasis on "arrange" was to show the guard that he was being appointed by higher-ups si the consequences of disrespecting him were serious.

The secretary smiled and replied, "Mr. Wilson has arranged for you to be the leader of a store sales team."

Noah's smile vanished, wondering if he heard it wrongly ly. "What did you say? Sales team leader?"

Noah thought that with his capabilities as the former vice president of Miller Jewels, Spencer would at least arrange for him to be the store manager. was appointed as the manager, he would not have any complaints.

However, he was stunned that he was offered a sales team leader role. Was Ronnie messing with him?

Noah was furious, saying to the secretary, "Wait a minute. I need to make a call." The secretary nodded. "Of course, Mr. Miller. After your call, I can take you to the store and take a look. If you find the position suitable, our company will provide both meals and accommodation. With the staff dormitory, you don't have to rent a house in Oriata City."

When Noah heard the words, he felt like he found the biggest joke in the world. He had lived in the villa since he was young and had never rented a house, finding it ridiculous that they let him stay in the staff dormitory.

He angrily stepped aside and called Ronnie. "Ronnie, are you doing this on purpose? Jf you weren't serious about getting me a job, don't bother about this. Are you nuts? Is there something wrong with your brain for making me a lesperson? Are you holding a grudge because I punched you? Do you want to torment me like this? We're brothers but why are you so vengeful?" 01:03 Sat, 15 Jun Chapter 448

"Noah, aren't you being too impatient? A team leader is a small leadership role that you can work for a while first. If your performance is outstanding. and there's always room for promotion," Ronnie replied calmly.

"Promotion? k you!" Noah burst out with curses.

He was used to being a leader and couldn't accept being ordered around by others.

"Noah, remember, I only introduced you to the job. If you don't want it, I'm not forcing you to take it on. Enough talk, you should decide for yourself. have things to do, so don't call me again," Ronnie said before hanging up the phone, leaving Noah fuming.

As the problem could not be solved, even though Noah wished to leave, he was reluctant. After thinking for a while, he concluded that even if he started at a higher position, the staff wouldn't respect him. He tried to convince himself that it was better to work his way up as Ronnie did mention about room for promotion. Sighing. Noah decided to trust him this time.

He couldn't let this trip to Orata City be for nothing while Top Shrine was also a good platform for his comeback.

He took a deep breath and turned to the secretary after hesitating for a while, saying, "Take me to see the store."

The secretary smiled and said, "Alright, Mr. Miller, please follow me."

Noah glanced at the security guard beside who was chuckling. The guard initially thought Noah was some high-ranking executive, but turned out to be just a sales team leader.

The guard felt that he was already very respectful, otherwise, he would have mocked Noah directly.

Noticing that Noah was looking at him, the guard held back his laughter and said, "Sir, so you're the sales team leader. My apologies earlier, and I won't stop you at the entrance next time we meet. Work hard to sell more jewelry and aim to be the top salesperson," the guard said while suppressing his laughter. Upon hearing this, Noah's face darkened but only snorted coldly without saying anything while following the secretary to the store.

At the CEO's Office of the Jackson Group, David reported, "Mr. Jackson, after a thorough investigation, we found a basement in an old residential area near the Prover Hospital. There was a piece of torn clothing there, which matched the clothes of Xander's father, Mr. Timothy. He had been in that basement before. As almost everyone in the old residential area had moved away, no one paid attention when surveillance cameras were damaged."

Gabriel asked, "So, there're no traces of Timothy?"

"If it weren't for the torn cloth, we wouldn't have known he had been there. The basement has dual exits so it could be a transit point or a body disposal route."

David made this prediction given that Timothy had been missing for many days and there was no trace of him. Hence, there was a high chance that he was already dead.

"Did I you conduct the investigation discreetly?" Gabriel asked.

"Yes, no one was alerted," David said with absolute certainty.

"Station people around that building and don't miss any unusual activity," Gabriel instructed.
