“That’s the gist of it. Please get these revisions done as soon as possible,” Nathan said, standing up.
Rebecca quickly rose. “Mr. Reed, could you possibly send me a document with the points you just mentioned?”
Nathan raised an eyebrow. “Why?”
“We didn’t quite catch everything.”
“Well,” he said with a dismissive shrug, “that sounds like your problem.”
Rebecca’s face fell. She couldn’t believe how unaccommodating he was being. “I heard this project has a new person in charge. May I meet with them?”
“I’m sorry, our boss is a very busy person and doesn’t have time to meet with you.”
With that, Nathan turned and left the room.
“Ms. Winters, did… did we just mess this up?” the assistant asked, her voice trembling.
Rebecca shot her a glare. “It’s just a few minor revisions. This happens all the time. What are you panicking for?”
“But Mr. Reed was speaking so fast, I couldn’t keep up. We should have brought more people.”
“You are the only person in this department I trust. When we get back, keep your mouth shut and follow my lead.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
Watching Rebecca leave, Penelope sneered. If you wanted to steal something from her, you’d better have the skills to back it up.
When she returned to the Stone Group office, the atmosphere was thick with outrage.
Wilma was the first to rush over. “Boss, we didn’t get the KINY Group contract signed.”
“Really?” Penelope feigned ignorance.
Wilma huffed. “Someone was so afraid of sharing the credit that she only brought her own assistant to the signing, and she botched it.”
“Oh no. But everything was already agreed upon.”
