Chapter 535: Chapter 535: Who Will Succeed as the Secretary General?
Immediately, the Chief Secretary explained, “My boyfriend proposed to me, and we plan on moving overseas for work after the new year. Chief Daniel Marshall, I especially want to thank you for your guidance and consideration over the past five years. I’m also grateful for the many things you’ve taught me.”
A slight smirk appeared on Daniel Marshall’s face, and his gaze softened somewhat, “Isabella, congratulations!”
The Chief Secretary smiled, “Thank you, Chief Marshal!”
“I accept your resignation, I will speak with the HR Director about this. Until a new Chief Secretary is appointed, I hope you can continue working as the President’s Chief Secretary,” he told her.
“I understand, I will continue to work hard until the transition is complete.”
After several seconds of pondering, Daniel asked, “Isabella, do you have any recommendations?”
Looking straight into Daniel’s hawk-like eyes, the Chief Secretary responded, “Chief Marshal, I don’t have a suitable recommendation for your Chief Secretary. I suggest you choose carefully.”
“I see, you may leave now.”
With a slight nod, the Chief Secretary left.
Immediately, Daniel phoned Adam Howard.
“Isabella has just submitted her resignation to me, I need a Chief Secretary. Could you find a suitable person for me? And then recommend them to HR through a headhunting company.”
Adam teased, “Do you want a male or female secretary? Daniel, personal advice, you should get a male secretary. Even though a female secretary looks attractive, they can easily lead to misinterpretations. I’m also not sure if Grace would be jealous.”
Without hesitation, Daniel replied, “Keep it male.”
A playful smile formed on Adam’s handsome face, “Sounds good, a man would communicate well with us and handle the female secretaries from the president’s office. Men are better equipped to handle certain things. When I’m not in the office, he can be your assistant too, killing two birds with one stone.”
Daniel lit a cigarette and began to smoke.
Between his sensual lips, a faint ring of smoke was exhaled, “Don’t tell HR. Prepare both male and female secretary’s information. Say they can be used as a secretary or assistant. I want multifaceted talents.”
“No problem, I’ll get right on it.”
…
Not long after, Grace Ziegler noticed Daniel leaving his office.
After which, she didn’t see him return.
After work, Grace Ziegler went out to eat hot pot on her own.
Suddenly, someone entered and sat directly in front of Grace Ziegler.
“What a coincidence!”
Turning at the sound of his voice, Grace Ziegler looked up, slightly surprised.
It turned out to be her former supervisor!
“Manager Martinez, how are you?”
With a faint smile, Grace Martinez looked at Grace Ziegler at ease, “I heard you’ve been promoted. I’m sorry I didn’t congratulate you sooner.”
Grace Ziegler laughed, “No worries!”
While placing her order, Grace Martinez spoke, “When I was the HR Director, I always thought you had potential. I’ve always wanted to speak with you, recommend you as Manager. Then, something happened, and I left HR before I got a chance to see you again. How’s the work in the President’s Office?”
Grace Ziegler nodded slightly, “It’s not bad, I’m learning a lot.”
“By the way, did any of your former colleagues tell you about the personnel changes in the President’s Office? This could be a golden opportunity for you, you should seize it.”
Grace Ziegler’s eyes widened with interest, and she listened carefully, “What news? I’ve not heard of any changes in the President’s Office!”
Grace Martinez’s smile was enchanting, her clever eyes sparkling slyly, “You’re not on good terms with the Chief Secretary, right? She resigned and definitely wouldn’t tell you. Adam spoke to HR. The HR director has contacted the headhunting company to find a Chief Secretary for Daniel Marshall.”
