The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 305 The Competitiveness of a Strong-Willed Woman

Jessica thought it wasn't good for this idiot to be idle all day. She had to find him something to do— a means to test his abilities and keep him busy so he wouldn’t charm other pretty girls. In her mind, the plan was perfect.

Monday.

Although Jessica had assigned Daniel a job, he was lazy and didn’t show up in the office until eleven in the morning. Since he had skipped breakfast, he grabbed himself a wrap, a glass of milk and a bagel, and was enjoying his belated morning meal in the office.

Suddenly, the partially closed office door was flung open with a bang. In came Brittany, a force of nature.

"Country bumpkin, still eating breakfast? Do you even know what time it is? You're late, do you get that? Also, since when is the office a place for eating breakfast?"

"This wrap is delicious, wanna bite?" Daniel offered enthusiastically, only to receive an eye-roll from Brittany.

"Get out of here! I'm on a diet! Clean up this office now! Tidy up your desk and then sit tight while I assign you tasks!"

"You’re assigning tasks? What tasks? Besides, I'm Jessica’s assistant, not yours. Why would you be giving me tasks?"

"Why? Because now, I'm your boss!"

"You're my boss? What kind of boss?"

"Did Jessica or did Jessica not entrust you with 'The Concubine' project? She told you to handle it! She talked to me this morning and asked me to be your boss for this project. So, starting now, you do what I say. Whatever I ask you to do, you do it!"

"Didn’t Jessica say I was in full charge? She told you to assist me. How did you become my boss?"

"Full charge? What do you know? Are you familiar with TMO's rules? Do you even know any of the department heads?"

"Uh..."

Daniel shook his head, "I don’t."

Advancing a project requires more than just one person. After all, to get something done usually requires teamwork!

Brittany had been with TMO for so long, and part of the reason she became the CEO's secretary was because she knew all the department heads intimately. 'The Concubine' project indeed needed her expertise to be successful.

She wanted to be in charge and Daniel couldn't be more pleased. That way, he could slack off! The tasks he didn't want to do, he could dump them all on Brittany. After all, based on her character, she was likely to be driven and eager to take the credit.

As for Daniel, he didn't care about any of that. Jessica was his, and all he needed to do was make sure the project didn't fail because of him. Jessica was all that mattered to him.

Daniel looked at Brittany with a cheery grin, "So, Brittany, what do you need me to do?" Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"The next step for 'The Concubine' project, aside from R&D, is finding a reliable manufacturer. That's your job. Within three days, you must find a suitable manufacturer. Otherwise, you'll have

failed your task, and if that happens, you should offer your resignation!"

"Within three days? A suitable manufacturer? How am I supposed to find one? If I can't find it, you should go look, Brittany!"

Daniel said nonchalantly, with an air of not caring one bit.
