Chapter 132: Beta's Second Strike

Beta's face remained dark until she returned to the company. Her subordinates didn't know what Miss Beta and the young master had discussed, but they could tell from Beta's expression that the outcome didn't seem favorable. "Miss," someone called out. Beta turned to look at the person calling her. "What is it?" "Miss, the guy we met at Katrina's house this morning has joined our company." The person reported nervously. Beta furrowed her brows. "Which department did he join?" "He... He joined..." The subordinate hesitated to speak. Seeing the hesitation, Beta's brows furrowed even tighter. "Why aren't you speaking? Is there something difficult to say?" "He interviewed for the position of the CEO's special assistant," the subordinate finally said. The CEO's special assistant! Beta's heart trembled. If she allowed Sifan to become Wesley's special assistant, wouldn't that be giving Elaine and Wesley an opportunity? Things with Daniel hadn't been resolved yet, and now there was Sifan as well. Beta felt like she was about to collapse. Looking at the few people under her, Beta came up with an idea. She ordered the subordinate who had just reported the information, "Go tell Wesley that I have my eyes on Sifan for this assistant position and bring him over to me." "Yes!" the subordinate replied. Half an hour later, Sifan arrived at Beta's office with a man dressed in black. Seeing the woman sitting in the office chair, Sifan's legs went weak. If he had known she would be his future boss, he wouldn't have acted so foolishly this morning. "Hehe, sis, so you're my boss. It was all a misunderstanding this morning. Seeing your status, I realize you're not someone I can mess with." Sifan said with a smile, trying to appease. Beta hadn't expected him to change his attitude so quickly. She coldly said, "Stop the nonsense and come do what you're supposed to do." After speaking, she gestured to the person beside her to assign tasks to Sifan. But less than two minutes later, Sifan refused to do the work. "Boss, I interviewed for the position of special assistant. It's fine if there's a change in leadership, but I can't accept having my job changed as well. I didn't come here to do odd jobs." Sifan said. Beta looked at him. "The salary I'm offering you is the same as for the special assistant position. I just prefer not to use a special assistant." Sifan pursed his lips and muttered under his breath, "If you're not used to it, why did you ask the CEO to get me?" Hearing Sifan's words, Beta suddenly remembered something. Maybe if she kept Sifan close, she could find out Elaine and Katrina's movements! "Then come over, but we still need time to adjust. When we work, you have to follow my pace, got it?" Beta said. Sifan immediately smiled. "Yes, boss!" For the rest of the afternoon until it was time to clock out, Sifan could be said to be completely 'attached'. So Beta's face was black all day. It was the first time she had doubted her decision. As quitting time approached, Sifan walked up to Beta and asked, "Boss, are you satisfied with my work this half-day?" Beta, with no expression, just said, "Hmm." Then she added, "Tidy up and go home." "No, no, no, as the special assistant, I have to make sure you get home safely. In case you encounter any problems on the way, I can help you solve them." Sifan said. Beta: Feels like I'm being watched. "Suit yourself." Beta said and then got up to leave the office. On the way back, because Beta was used to driving herself, Sifan had to sit in the passenger seat. "Boss, has anyone ever told you that your profile is beautiful?" Sifan had been looking at Beta for several hours today, and he had wanted to say this for a long time. Beta turned to look at him, her eyes filled with coldness. But this guy didn't hold back at all, he even added, "From this angle, your front face is even more beautiful." Beta: .... Born into the Howard family, Beta had never been praised like this in so many years. Usually when doing business outside, everyone was polite. Being praised so straightforwardly and without purpose made Beta feel it for the first time. But she was very uncomfortable. "Harassing your boss at work will deduct your salary." Beta turned her face away, saying lightly. Sifan acted like he didn't care, "I'm serious, I didn't harass you, and besides, haven't I clocked out already?" Beta was speechless, "If you've clocked out, why are you still in my car?" Sifan put on an exaggerated expression, "As a subordinate's concern for the boss, can't I accompany you for free?" Beta slammed on the brakes and stopped the car at the side of the road, turning to order him, "Get out." This time, Sifan didn't dare to talk back. He obediently opened the door and got out of the car, after all, if he really annoyed the little rabbit, it would be a big loss. Standing on the side of the road, watching Beta drive away with a kick of the gas pedal, Sifan revealed a smile. This female boss not only had a beautiful appearance, but also a fun personality. And after observing her for the afternoon, he found out that she was Wesley and Daniel's sister, which meant she wasn't engaged to anyone. Plus, she drove home alone, which basically meant she didn't have a boyfriend. With this in mind, it seemed like he still had a great chance. Taking down the female boss was the most interesting. Thinking like this, Sifan took out his phone and sent a message to Beta: 【Sorry boss, I left my backpack in your car, and my transportation card is inside. It's my first time in this city, and I'm not very familiar with your taxi process, so can you please trouble you to bring my backpack back?】 He also added two pitiful emojis at the end. Beta, upon seeing the message after getting out of the car, couldn't help but curse, "Bastard!" She had really brought trouble upon herself. Beta: 【Are you still at the place where you just got off?】 Sifan revealed a mischievous smile: 【Yes, it's really troubling for you, boss.】 Beta: 【Wait, I'll be there in ten minutes.】 Sifan: 【Okay, love you, boss!】 He added two heart emojis at the end. Beta: 【Don't act cute with me! Watch your attitude.】 Sifan: 【Got it!】 Beta put away her phone and drove back to the spot where she had just left. From afar, she could see a big boy playing with the grass by the roadside. "How old are you, so childish." Beta couldn't help but say. Her tone carried an indulgent feeling she didn't even realize. The car stopped by the roadside, and Beta tossed the bag to Sifan. Seeing Sifan smiling at her, Beta immediately turned cold again, "I hope this is the last time. Don't bother me for such things in the future." Sifan nodded obediently. "Okay, boss, I got it."
