Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 444 You Did Well
"Liya, you have performed well ever since you joined the company. The program you have designed is pretty good as well. Calvin took out a USB drive from his drawer and placed it on the table. He flashed he a smile and complimented her."
"Thank you so much for the compliment, Calvin. It's my honor to be able to work in Harvey Group. Liya was filled with delight upon receiving his praise. Jubilant, she showered him with flattery."
"I didn't expect you to work so hard for the sake of Harvey Group. It's beyond my expectation. What about this? I will inform the finance department to increase your salary by 50% from today onwards, he announced. The smile warmed his eyes. He was being pretty generous.
"
"Really? Liya raised her head and exclaimed in delight. She looked at him with moist, shining, and ecstatic eyes.
"Of course, why would I lie to you? Calvin's smile broadened into a grin and he said firmly, """Didn't I mention that you have done a great job? The company will definitely give you the reward you deserve.""" "Okay, thank you so much, Calvin. Liya was over the moon and she batted her eyelashes at him. There was affection in her eyes.
"It was a dream come true! Calvin had treated her so coldly just a few days ago. However, he was being so good to her right now. Not only did he call for her himself, he also decided to give her a pay rise. The change in his attitude was so sudden that she was not accustomed to it. In fact, she found it hard to believe. "
"Liya, how did you come to work at the Harvey Group? Calvin sat down at his desk and asked casually."
"Liya was stunned for a moment before she smiled and said, """Calvin, I saw that the Harvey Group was looking for a software engineer. Hence, I submitted my resume and Mr. White informed me to come over for the interview. On my first day here, I met Ms. Morris and she agreed to let me stay in the company as an official employee."
She was eloquent and clear about the details. Everything seemed logical.
"Calvin nodded and sighed. """What a shame. Liya, since you recognized me at first glance, why didn't you come to find me right away and tell me that you wished to work at my company?"""" "As he spoke, he looked at her with his charming eyes and gave her a meaningful look. It made Liya's heart beat rapidly.'
"Calvin, I... Liya did not expect that Calvin would say something like that and was at a loss for words for a moment. However, she responded quickly by lowering her head and her full lips pouted slightly. She said pitifully, ""Calvin, you have a high social status whereas I'm a nobody. I didn't dare to approach you."""""
"For the first two times she encountered him, his attitude was cold and detached. Besides, he did not recognize her. Hence, she didn't dare to even walk up to him. "
"Oh, so that's your first impression of the company. Do you think we value a person's social status over their abilities? Calvin furrowed his brows and sneered as he stared at her. """If that's the case, why did you approach me after that and revealed your identity? How are you going to explain this?""""
This... I... Liya was caught off guard by his question that she could not utter a single word. She couldn't possibly say that she was infatuated with him and wished to seduce him. Could it be that he had figured out her intentions?
"The thought crossed her mind and she grew a little uneasy as she looked at him sheepishly. Upon noticing that he was looking at her calmly and did not seem to be suspicious of her, she calmed down and said sweetly, ""'Calvin, I know that the company values a person's abilities above all. Hence, I did not approach you at first, as I wanted to prove my worth and make you proud.""
"Oh, that's no wonder. Calvin burst out laughing suddenly. ""Good, that's great! Continue doing your best. Once the company has survived the current crisis, I will give you a promotion. You know as well that I'm wealthy and powerful. A mere trifle such as what has happened to the car industry will not affect the company at all. What do you think?""""
"Yes, you are right, Liya echoed his words and nodded in agreement. She heaved a sigh of relief. It looked like he did not notice that something was amiss. He was just curious."
"Zoella was right. Calvin was becoming increasingly interested in her. If that was the case, once she received the money from Calvin, she would then pay Zoella back. After all, compared to working for Zoella, she would rather stay at Harvey Group. She did not wish to be Zoella's pawn for revenge. Liya understood her predicament well. She was not willing to be used by Zoella and sacrifice herself for her revenge. "Okay, you may leave now. I'll call you again if I need anything. Calvin flashed her a smile and he was being pretty friendly. The smile warmed his eyes and it made Liya's heart race with joy. "
"Okay, Calvin, I'll take my leave, Liya replied in a soft and sweet voice, beaming. Her slender figure then spun around as she slowly walked out of the office. "
"As soon as Belle and Rosa set foot at the International Triumphal Court and waited in front of the VIP elevator, they saw Liya coming out of the VIP elevator. She was blushing and giggling sheepishly." "Good afternoon, Ms. Morris. Upon seeing Belle, she could not hide the smugness on her face as she parted her lips and greeted her carefully."
Why did she use the VIP elevator?
"Belle found it very suspicious. After all, it was the VIP elevator. At the moment, it was reserved only for her and Calvin. The other employees could only use the other elevators. Why was she here? There was only one plausible explanation. She had just come back from Calvin's office. "
Belle recalled her behavior in front of Calvin when she was present a few days ago and this put her in a bad mood.
"Belle, is this woman working in the Harvey Group as well? Rosa glanced towards Liya's direction as she walked away. Her curiosity was piqued. "Yes, she's an employee in the network department, Belle replied, apparently lost in thought. "
"
"She is quite beautiful. Her eyes are captivating. She looks like those women who are experts at seducing men. Rosa pondered for a moment before she grinned. """Belle, you must be careful. Don't let Calvin fall for a woman like her.""""
"Rosa had hit a raw nerve. Fear gripped at her heart and she said right away, ""How dare he? If he dares to do something like this right under my eyes, I will not let the matter slide easily."" She was deeply troubled as she spoke.
"Well, anything's possible. A man can't reject a woman who flirts with him, let alone a woman who is attractive and knows how to please a man. Men are all the same. To put it lightly, you must be careful. Rosa replied dismissively, pouting."
"Belle's heart sank and she was feeling very dejected. Soon, they arrived at the 88th floor. "
"Rosa, you may stay here at my office for the next few days. I'm going abroad. Belle frowned, apparently lost in thought.
"1
"As they spoke, someone appeared at the door. It was Calvin. He strode into the office. "
"Rosa, you're here? He heard Rosa's voice from the office beside and walked over as he greeted her cordially.
"Rosa turned around and said, "Calvin, I'm here to see Belle and help her."""
"Oh, thank you for your help then. As soon as Calvin entered the room, he caught a glimpse of Belle standing silently by the side. Her face was pale and she did not look at him affectionately, which seemed pretty unusual. In fact, it seemed that she was in a bad mood and there was a sullen expression on her face. Worried, Calvin was about to approach her when Sergio walked into the office. "
Calvin frowned when he saw him. A flash of irritation crossed his gaze.
"Rosa, I have something to talk to you about. He entered the office and said to Rosa, """Please come with me."
"Rosa's expression darkened and she glanced at Belle, who was also looking at her before she followed him out of the office."
"Rosa, I don't wish for you to be involved in the Harvey Group's matters. General Perry has already said the day before that you are going to return to the Capital City. Upon entering his office, Sergio addressed Rosa with a solemn expression. "
"Rosa's temper sparked when she heard that he had told her father regarding her arrival. How overbearing was he? Who did he think he was? She immediately raised her eyebrows as she glared at him. "Sergio, or should I say, Mr. Xanthe, you can't control what I do. I will do as I wish. Besides, this is my personal affair. What does it have to do with you? How dare you tell my father about this. What a j*rk!""" What Sergio did was enough to ruin her impression of him.
"Rosa, the matter regarding Harvey Group is pretty complex. You are just an outsider and you don't understand the predicament. You can't be of much help. Getting involved in this matter will only ruin General Perry's reputation. I'm advising you for your own sake and I really hope that you can leave as soon as possible.
Sergio did not care what she thought of him. His expression was solemn and his tone was stern. It never crossed his mind that Rosa would intervene in this matter. This gave him a headache and he was extremely frsutrated.
"Really? Rosa sneered. ""Thanks for your reminder. However, I'm a person who loves to meddle in other people's affairs out of boredom. Besides, I have a close relationship with those in the Harvey Group. I won't just sit back and watch when they are in trouble.""
"
"Upon finishing her sentence, Rosa raised her head and glared at him as she snorted in disgust. She gave him a look of disdain, looking very indignant and unsatisfied."
"Sergio was seriously getting a headache. ""'Rosa, what relationship do you have with the Harvey Group? Don't forget, you are no longer engaged to Martin. Can you imagine what people will say behind your back if you continue staying here? Or are you still madly in love with the ex-convict, Martin?"""
"Sergio, how can you say something like that? Burning anger spread across her body when she heard what he said. Rage overcame her. She glared at him and gave him a warning. """Let me be frank with you. I may not be part of the Harvey Group but this is none of your business. We aren't close or anything. What I do has nothing to do with you. Let me say this one last time. I'm going to intervene in the Harvey Group's matters. Although your father has proposed an arranged marriage between both of our families, I haven't given my consent. I already spoke to my dad that I will remain here at the Harvey Group while keep an eye on you. He has agreed to let me stay here for a while. Let me tell you. If you fail to prove the Harvey Group's innocence, I will not hesitate to reject the marriage proposal and I will definitely teach you a lesson.""""
"Rosa was seething with anger as she drove her point across. Fuming mad, she snorted and left. Sergio was left alone in a daze. His lips grew thin with anger. "
