The Secret of the Deputy
Chapter 7



"What's with that dramatic reaction? You're the one who wants to find out ".


Travis waved his hand defiantly. "none. I was once called Wolfie as a kid, so- "


"You? Don't be absurd. You're nothing compared to him, and you'll never know how amazing he is" Quinn sided before he could finish. & itHow can a man who lives off a woman be compared to Wolfie?


Nonetheless, Travis was not bothered by it and chuckled. "He's amazing". & I can't believe Quinn adored me that much. Well, I guess this could be considered a pleasant feeling. & gt


Travis has had all sorts of tough training in his youth and the happiest moments he has had were when he played with Quinn. In fact, it was only then that he felt like a human and not a tool.


Quinn hesitantly judged Travis and replied nonchalantly, "Yes. It's good you realize it ".


The next day, Quinn arrived at Novem Group with a troubled heart.


Since he was a nobody, he knew that collaborating with Novem Group was almost impossible. However, he had to do it no matter what the outcome would be. Otherwise, the Yorks, who is a rival to his family, will take him down and even fire him.


"Oh, Travis. I can't believe you finally dragged me down for good after three years. But never mind; we'll split up after this ", Quinn murmured inwardly as she stepped into the company lobby.


When she was ready to register at the front desk, someone greeted her politely, "May I know if you are Ms. Quinn York, please?"


Stunned, Quinn saw a slender, professional-looking woman smiling at him.


"Y-Yes, and you?" Quinn replied with a blank look.


"I'm Mr. Lewis' secretary, Cindy Clark. You can call me Ms. Clark. Mr. Lewis has asked me to accept you because he knows you're coming. "


"Mr Lewis? I'm afraid I don't know him ". Quinn was confused. & ltAs per her plan, I will only meet the staff from the finance department today to submit a cooperation contract and wait for a reply at home. I shouldn't have met any boss. Besides, I haven't even visited the department. & gt


Cindy immediately added regretfully, "Sorry for the confusion. Jackson Lewis, CEO of our company, would like to meet you ".


"Jackson Lewis?! Have I heard you right, Ms. Clark? " Quinn's dumbfounded. & and is this a joke? Jackson is the CEO of Novem Group. Even someone like Martha needed to make an appointment a month before, and it was also no guarantee that she could meet him. But now he wants to see me? & gt


Cindy nodded her head with a smile and gestured for Quinn to follow her.


A great honor for someone like Quinn was received by Jackson himself.


& ltDing! & gt


As the elevator doors slowly opened, they saw a handsome man in his thirties waiting for them outside.


That man is none other than Jackson Lewis. She said, "Good day, Ms. York's. I'm Jackson. We know of your arrival. But since the director is busy today, I will serve you. I hope you don't mind ".


If it was heard by someone else, they would assume he accepted a member of the royal family. In addition, it is very rare for a CEO to be polite to a woman.


Quinn was gobsmacked and quickly responded, "It's an honor that I've been accepted by your company in such a grand way. Novem Group is undoubtedly the best company in Horington! "


"Thank you for your kind words, Ms. York's. Please, come here ". Jackson gestured at her with a smile. "According to the chairman's order, Novem Group has prepared a long-term contract for you. It is mainly about guaranteeing Prism Group an annual investment of at least 50 million dollars and a profit of over 50%. In addition, profits will increase according to the Prism Group market growth rate. In fact, everything has been inaugurated. If you don't have a problem with it, all you have to do is sign the contract ". Jackson handed the papers to Quinn.


"Huh?" Quinn looked at Jackson in wonder.& lt Why is there even a guarantee on his contract?


Since the investment is over 50 million dollars and the profit is over 50%, Novem Group will ensure that Prism Group will get an annual net profit of 25 million dollars after signing the contract! This is more than the profit that Prism Group has gained in the last six months!


I would never have dreamed of such a dramatic event! It doesn't make sense for Jackson to accept me and even give me assurances on his contract. Why is this happening? Could Travis have told the truth last night? & gt He suddenly remembered his words.


"Mr Lewis, are you sure this is for me?"


"of course. I'm sure it's for you and the Prism Group" Jackson replied smiling. "If there's no other problem, you can leave your signature here".


After signing the contract, Quinn asked again, "Master Lewis, are you sure-"


"Alright, Ms. York's. I understand your confusion. This award is actually given to your husband. Since he was close to Mr. Long, there would be no problem since this was Mr. Long's order ".


Quinn's heart was racing. "Master Long? Do you really have an executive whose last name is Long and whose position is higher than yours? Why haven't we heard of him before? "
