Chasing His Scentless Mate (Caroline) novel Chapter 100

Chapter 100: Chapter 100 A Career Decision

Caroline’s POV

"Hey Elle, Joseph wanted to see me. What’s up?" I asked, stepping into Eleanor’s office. Rory perked up inside me.

"No idea, Carrie." Eleanor stood, smoothing her skirt. "Let me tell him you’re here."

She went to our boss’s office and came back, waving me in. I fixed my blouse nervously.

"Caroline!" Joseph greeted warmly as I entered his sunlit office. "First, I’m so happy you and Draven worked things out."

I smiled at the mention of Draven. "Thanks, Joseph. I hope he doesn’t mess up again."

"If he does, I’ll deal with him myself," Joseph said protectively.

"Just like you did this time, spying on us and telling him everything," Eleanor teased from her chair.

"Elle, he’s been my friend since we were pups," Joseph laughed. "But Caroline, you can always count on me."

"I appreciate that." And I meant it. He’d helped me when I needed a job and support during my problems with Draven.

Joseph leaned forward. "Which brings me to my next point. You’ve been amazing here. Quick, smart, great with clients. Hiring you was one of my best decisions."

The praise felt good, but I sensed more coming. "Thank you, but what are you trying to say?"

"Caroline," Joseph began carefully, "we both know this position isn’t aligned with your professional background, even though you excel at it. Being Draven’s executive assistant at Thorne Enterprises was a prestigious role with considerable influence. I can’t offer you anything comparable here."

My stomach tightened. "Draven wants me back, doesn’t he?"

Joseph nodded. "He called me this morning. As someone who cares about your future, I have to acknowledge it’s a superior position in your field. The role of CEO’s assistant at Thorne offers excellent compensation, growth potential, and significant respect."

Draven really is a stubborn Alpha, he just won’t give up. I already told him I wouldn’t go back to being his assistant. He actually called my boss about it, which makes me both angry and amused.

"I know that, but I truly enjoy working here," I said honestly.
