Chapter 217 Jobbery

Life experience told Faye not to argue with or reject arrogant people.

Even if she could not praise them, she would give them some affirmation. As the saying went, those whom God wished to destroy, he first made mad.

Hearing her words, Ms. Ronney, who was sitting beside her, was stunned for a moment. When she was about to say something, Faye suddenly said in a cold voice, "I think we've come to a decision. The

project department will only be responsible for project schedule management, and the PR department will only be responsible for public relations maintenance. The publicity department will take care of the specific implementation and follow-up of the project."

After she finished speaking, she picked up the documents on the table and got up.

Hearing her words, Bonnie she asked with her eyes flashing with pride, "Ms. Nash, are you sure?"

Faye calmly said, "Congratulations to you in advance, Ms. Ford."

Bonnie instantly smiled and reached out to shake hands with Faye, saying, "I hoped we can cooperate happily."

Faye didn't shake hands with her but said in a low voice, "I will not participate in this project. My assistant will contact you later and work with you."

Then, she turned around and walked away.

As soon as she left, Ms. Ronney followed her out, while Bonnie looked at her hand in the air with a gloomy face.

After getting out of the meeting room of the publicity department, Ms. Ronney accelerated to catch up with Faye and said, "Ms. Nash, please wait a moment."

Faye paused her steps to wait for her and smiled, "Ms. Ronney, what's up?"

Ms. Ronney sneered, "She is just a department manager like us but is arrogant."

Faye said, "We have to endure it if we want to avoid trouble, right?"

Ms. Ronney said, "But enduring grievances will harm my health."

Ms. Ronney's full name was Janet Ronney, and she was a thirty-nine-year-old successful single woman.

Janet had worked in the company for many years since graduating from college. She had gained a foothold in the project department which used to belong to men, so she must have made painstaking efforts. Faye and Janet were not close friends, but they appreciated each other.

Janet looked at Faye and said, "This project is our company's key project. Is it OK to let her mess around?"

Faye looked at her and asked, "How long do you think she can hold on?"

Janet didn't understand her hint, so she looked at her in confusion.

Faye said, "I have done some research in advance. This public welfare project is mainly to help children in poverty-stricken mountainous areas get better education recourses. To show people that we are indeed doing charity instead of playacting, we will have to send the person in charge to visit the kids, right?"

Janet suddenly realized what she meant and smiled, "Is it far?"

Faye said solemnly, "It is said that the place is still closed to traffic and lacks water and electricity now."

Janet smiled, "I see."

Faye said, "But we still need to make preparation. If she gives up, we will have to replace her."

Janet sneered, "Why do we have to replace her. Let her stay there on her own!"

As they were chatting, a light cough suddenly came from behind.

When they looked back, they saw Robert coughing hard to draw their attention with one fist in front of his mouth. Faye said, "Good afternoon, Mr. Farrell."

Janet scanned Faye out of the corner of her eye and said to Colin with a smile, "Good afternoon, Mr. Farrell."

Colin was holding the coffee that Faye had bought for him. He took a sip and said, "Is your meeting over?"

Faye answered, "Yes, it's over."

Colin lied calmly, "The headquarters is very concerned about this project. Now that you have finished the meeting, give me an oral report now." Faye nodded, "Okay."

Colin turned to look at Janet and asked, "Ms. Ronney, are you available?"

Janet instantly understood his overtone, so she hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, but I will have another meeting soon."

Colin said, "Never mind! Ms. Nash, you will have to report to me alone."

When Colin was seriously acting, all the other people present were pretending to be deceived.

A few minutes later, Colin and Faye came to the PR department.

The employees were taken aback to see him at first, but soon, they got excited.

Watching Colin and Faye enter the office, the employees started whispering to each other.

"I haven't seen Mr. Farrell for a while, but he is still handsome."

"What do you think they are doing in the office?"

"Work! What else can they do?"

"Work? That would be a waste of time."

Then, they burst into low laughter.

In the office, when Faye went to the water dispenser to fetch water, she asked with her back toward Colin, "How is the coffee?"

Colin sat in her office chair, picked up the photo frame on the table, and replied in a low voice, "Yummy."

Many people put their family photos or selfies on their office desks, but Faye's frame was empty.

Faye walked up to him with a glass of water and then began to report the results of the meeting on the public welfare project.

Unexpectedly, Colin suddenly grabbed her wrist and dragged her into her arms, saying, "You don't need to report anymore. I was outside the door when you were discussing the project in the conference

room."

Faye hadn't expected him to hug her all of a sudden, so she was caught off guard and bumped into his arms. After she steadied herself by putting a hand on his shoulder, she said, "Don't move." Colin raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Why?"

She shook the water glass in the other hand and said, "Water."

Seeing him still looking at her in confusion, she explained, "It's hot."

Colin smiled, "Are you afraid of scalding me?"

Faye didn't answer his question but straightened up, and then she asked, "When do you plan to start the public welfare project?"

Colin spread his legs slightly, wrapped his arms around her waist, pressed her to himself, and replied, "Next March. There is still plenty of time."

Faye nodded, "Well, there is indeed a lot of time left."

Colin leaned back into the chair, looked up at her, and joked, "But I can ask Ms. Ford to go to the village in advance for the fieldwork."

Faye was amused but held her laughter back and asked, "Is this jobbery?"

Colin said with a serious face, "Ms. Nash, can you please stop measuring my corn by your bushel? I made this decision entirely for the company's benefit. The project will be implemented next March, so it's a good time for the fieldwork now. Moreover, if we can expose the children's difficult living conditions in such a cold winter, we will attract more attention from society. More people will know these poor kids are living tenaciously and studying hard, and more people may join in our public welfare project!"

If Faye hadn't known him too well, she would have been convinced by his eloquent remarks.

Seeing her looking down at him unblinkingly, Colin joked, "Are you fascinated by my pretty face?"

Faye chuckled, "No."

Colin tightened his hug, looked at her with a smile, and said in a hoarse and seductive voice, "Liar! Your eyes are telling me that you are eager to have sex with me now."
