Chapter 41: This Is Impossible
“Delivery…” William Scott didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “No.”
Lydia Connor said directly, “There’s nothing bad about being a deliveryman. Although it’s a little tough, as long as you work hard, the income won’t be low either. I’m not one to look down on deliverymen. You don’t have to feel embarrassed.”
“No… I came to give Yvette—”
“Shh!” Lydia Connor quickly interrupted William Scott. She frowned and said, “It’s fine if you’re spouting nonsense at home, but do you know where we are? This is the company’s headquarters. If you still dare to spout nonsense, the security guards will definitely throw you out. Everyone here is filled with respect for CEO Quinn. No matter who it is, if they want to slander CEO Quinn in this company, they can forget about it.”
William Scott didn’t expect Yvette Quinn to have such high prestige in the hearts of her employees. This was even more proof of her ability.
Seeing that William Scott was unable to respond to what she said, Chen Lan went on, “Look at you. You’re not even wearing deliveryman clothes. The security guards won’t let you go upstairs. Where are you delivering it to? Let me help you.”
William Scott smiled bitterly and said, “This is for the CEO’s office.”
“The CEO’s office… Then I’ll send it over for you.” Chen Lan’s eyes lit up.
Although she was a mid-level cadre, she was only a deputy. She usually only had meetings with Yvette Quinn and did not have the chance to spend time alone with her. Now, even if it was just a delivery, it would easily deepen the CEO’s impression of her.
William Scott had no words. Chen Lan must have determined that he was a deliveryman. He could only say, “Lydia, it’s like this. I have to deliver this order personally. Otherwise, the client will complain about me. I don’t know where the CEO’s office is. Why don’t you bring me there?”
This was a good reason. Chen Lan also felt that it was not bad. She said, “Okay, I’ll take you there.”
After all, she was in the middle management of the company. Chen Lan could lead William Scott to wherever he wanted.
“William, when you reach the CEO’s office, put down your things and leave quickly. Don’t talk too much, especially when you see the CEO. You can’t look around her office or at her. The CEO hates men looking at her strangely.”
“Alright, I won’t.” William Scott could only agree humbly.
Chen Lan was still worried and gave a few more instructions. After all, William Scott had said that Yvette Quinn was his girlfriend. It was fine to brag at home or even outside, but if he bragged in Yvette Quinn’s company, he would definitely be beaten to death.
Fortunately, William Scott looked very serious now, which made Chen Lan feel slightly relieved.
Once they were out of the elevator, there was a small reception desk. There was a girl in her twenties with short hair. She looked smart and capable.
“Hello, Deputy Lydia.”
“Mira, did the CEO order food to her office?”
“No.” Mira immediately shook her head and looked warily at William Scott. “Deputy Lydia doesn’t know him?”
Chen Lan’s face darkened as she turned to look at William Scott. Her eyes were filled with bitterness as she thought to herself, ‘He’s really killing me. I knew that he only had a crush on Yvette Quinn and wanted to take a look at her secretly. I was actually stupid enough to bring him up.’
After a quick analysis in her mind, Chen Lan shouted at William Scott, “Of course I don’t know him. This kid is really bold to pretend to be a deliveryman. Mira, I’ll call security immediately and chase him out.”
William Scott’s eyes widened. Chen Lan really changed her attitude faster than flipping a book. He shook his head and said, “I don’t know you either.”
“Yes, yes, we really don’t know each other. I’ll call security immediately.” Chen Lan gave William Scott a grateful look, meaning that he was still kind enough not to betray her.
William Scott raised the bag and smiled. He said to Mira, “I’m here to deliver pie to your CEO.”
“What’s your name, sir?” Mira’s eyes lit up, and her attitude became much more respectful.
“William Scott,” he said calmly.
“Ah, I’m sorry, Mr. Scott. The CEO asked me to bring you over immediately when you arrive. I was really too rude just now.” As she spoke, she glared at Chen Lan and thought to herself, ‘It’s all your fault for interrupting. Otherwise, how could I have been rude to the wrong person?’
“Huh?” Chen Lan was stunned for a moment. What was going on? Why did Mira let William Scott in? Instinctively, she followed him in.
Mira immediately turned to her and said, “Deputy Lydia? Are you looking for the CEO too? If you want to see the CEO, I have to ask her first.”
“Oh, no, no. I’ll go down first.” Chen Lan quickly stopped and watched as William Scott and Secretary Mira walked in.
‘No way? Could it be that Second Aunt and William Scott are telling the truth? Is Yvette Quinn really his girlfriend?’ A terrifying and exciting thought suddenly appeared in Chen Lan’s mind.
If Yvette Quinn was really William Scott’s girlfriend, what did that mean? It meant that she and Yvette Quinn were relatives, and they were very close relatives. Then in the future, in this company…
However, Chen Lan immediately dismissed this thought. This was impossible. If William Scott was Yvette Quinn’s boyfriend, how could Secretary Mira not know him? She had been with Yvette Quinn for two years. Yvette Quinn would not hide anything from her.
Chen Lan did not dare to stay here for long, even if there was no secretary at the door. She hurriedly took the elevator down again.
William Scott had already entered Yvette Quinn’s office.
“You can leave. If there’s nothing urgent, I won’t see anyone for the next half an hour,” Yvette Quinn said flatly.
“Okay,” Secretary Mira agreed. She left the CEO’s office and closed the door.
However, she secretly wondered who the person who delivered the pie was. The CEO had never met such an unimportant person in the office. Could he be the CEO’s relative?
However, as a good secretary, Secretary Mira could only suppress these doubts in her heart and not spread them.
“Have a seat.” Yvette Quinn signaled, then said, “I have something to take care of. Give me two minutes.”
“Okay, there’s no hurry. You can get busy first. I’ll take a photo of you at work for Mom.” William Scott didn’t stand on ceremony. He sat down and took a photo of Yvette Quinn working on his cell phone before sending it to his mother.
His mother knew what was good for her. She didn’t send a voice message at this moment to say, “Remember what I told you? Drag her over to eat together domineeringly. That’s how you show you really care about her.”
“Got it. I’ll go get her now. We’ll talk about it when I’m done.” William Scott even added an arm-raising emoji.
