Chapter 142: Chapter 142
In an instant, Sienna Quinn became the star of the company.
Axel Yates looked at the contract placed before him, unable to contain his smile. He continuously praised Sienna Quinn, "I knew it was a wise choice to bring you back to handle this issue, and this deal was a piece of cake for you."
Sienna Quinn smiled lightly, "It’s not as exaggerated as you say. If it weren’t for the hard work of the entire team, we wouldn’t have the results we have now."
"Go back and inform everyone that they have three days of paid leave."
Upon hearing this news, Sienna Quinn’s eyes lit up. These days, no one had rested well. Everyone exerted extra effort to secure this deal, leaving no time to properly accompany Evan Quinn.
But now, these results justified their efforts.
Sienna Quinn walked out of Axel Yates’ office, and the smile on her lips gradually faded.
She had lingering doubts in her heart: what exactly was the proposal that Landon Lawson submitted?
Looking at the watch on her wrist, there were still three hours before Jason’s flight. Driving to the airport, she could still stop Jason.
Sienna Quinn did not return directly to the office but drove straight to the airport, needing to clarify some things.
Jason’s team successfully completed the task given by the company and brought back a satisfactory result, making the group visibly happy.
"Jason, we should get a raise when we return this time, right?" Even they were concerned about their monthly salary.
Jason nodded with a smile. Facilitating this cooperation was also to better open up the China market. Successfully completing the task assigned by the company would greatly help with promotions and raises in the future.
While they were waiting for the inspection, Sienna Quinn finally rushed over and stopped Jason.
Looking at the suddenly appearing beautiful woman, Jason slightly smiled and said, "Is President Quinn reluctant to part with us? Or is there a problem with our contract?"
The former was a joke, the latter a serious issue.
Sienna Quinn was gasping for air, having parked her car in the underground parking lot and run all the way here, afraid of missing him. Fortunately, she caught up.
Jason gave Sienna Quinn’s breathless state a puzzled look, exchanging glances with the people beside him, full of confusion as they gazed at her.
"President Quinn, catch your breath. We still have plenty of time before boarding," Jason said in his broken Chinese.
He was really startled by Sienna Quinn’s appearance, rushing out with labored breaths, afraid she might not catch her breath.
Sienna Quinn caught her breath and finally looked up at Jason. The usually calm and composed Sienna Quinn had urgency in her eyes.
"Jason, I need you to do me a favor."
"A favor?" Jason was taken aback. How could he help her? Updates are released by noᴠelfire.net
Ten minutes later, Sienna Quinn held the proposal file submitted by the Lawson Group in her hand, her brow furrowed. Is this a proposal? It’s clearly a blank sheet of paper, with nothing on it - not even a name.
The veins in her hand holding the file stood out. What did Landon Lawson mean by this? He didn’t take this meeting seriously at all. In previous confrontations, the Lawson Group’s proposals, while not perfect, were not so far as to submit a blank proposal.
Submitting this blank proposal signified giving up.
Sienna Quinn’s face didn’t look good. No wonder when Jason opened it, his expression changed, as he was evidently also startled by the proposal. That’s why Yates Group emerged as the winner so swiftly, with only two competitors - one backed out, and naturally, the other won.
"I don’t understand why President Lawson would withdraw!" Jason laughed, shaking his head. At the time he saw the blank proposal, he was truly taken aback. Thinking back, he found it quite amusing.
Sienna Quinn’s complexion darkened. Previously, Landon Lawson had confidently told her he would secure this business, yet at the last step, he chose to withdraw. His words didn’t match his actions. Why did Landon Lawson do this?
Wasn’t the custody of Evan Quinn what he wanted most?
All the doubts surfaced at that moment, her beautiful face full of surprise.
Sienna Quinn handed back the file to Jason, her eyes fluttering, clearly preoccupied with something.
Jason glanced at the time. It was almost time to board the plane. Looking at the dazed woman, he gently spoke, "Consider this file a gift to you. Although I don’t know what your relationship is with President Lawson, I can tell you care deeply."
Sienna Quinn dazedly accepted the file Jason handed back: "You’re giving this to me?"
"Yes, good luck. You’re a very cute girl." Jason smiled gently. Although it was his first time seeing Sienna Quinn, she left a good impression, being a girl with great charisma and execution ability.
There are not many girls at her age with such ability, even within HR Group, Jason couldn’t find one.
Watching Jason’s back, gripping the file tightly in her hand, Sienna Quinn’s emotions were complex.
Her beautiful face had a trace of surprise. Could it be that Jason already knew about her and Landon Lawson’s relationship? Could their relationship be so easily perceived? Sienna Quinn shook her head with a bitter smile, initially thinking she hid it well, but now realizing, from Jason’s outsider perspective, how obvious it was.
Sienna Quinn’s emotions were complex, even though it was just a thin file, not heavy at all, in her hand it felt weighty.
Holding the file, Sienna Quinn returned to the company with her head hung low. Those passing employees all glanced at her in unison, full of doubts and puzzlement. Sienna Quinn, known for her fighting spirit, surprisingly showed such a dejected side, leaving everyone stunned, pointing at her back and whispering.
"What’s wrong with President Quinn? Why does she look so dejected?"
"Didn’t she just secure the HR Group partnership? She should be happy."
The whispers were clear, yet Sienna Quinn turned a deaf ear to them, walking dazedly forward, until she suddenly bumped into someone’s solid chest.
The pain on her forehead caused Sienna Quinn to pause momentarily, realizing she hadn’t been watching where she was going, and she repeatedly nodded, apologizing.
The person in front made no sound, and Sienna Quinn gently lifted her head, slightly stunned at the man standing opposite; Axel Yates was smiling at her with folded arms.
Recognizing it was Axel Yates, Sienna Quinn finally breathed a sigh of relief. With him, it wouldn’t be a big problem.
"Why are you so lost? Where’s your dignity as President Quinn?" Axel Yates said with a smile, looking at Sienna Quinn grimacing in pain, and extended a hand to gently rub her forehead, his voice carrying a trace of indulgence. His gentle eyes looked at the woman before him as if wanting to melt her.
