You Can Take This On Too

Her gaze lingered on that last spot for several seconds before slowly returning to Lin Mo's face.

The anticipation I had just felt for watching the drama unfold suddenly vanished.

"This..."

Ashley's lips twitched, trying to maintain a smile that wasn't too unpleasant.

"Who is this...?"

Actually, she already somewhat recognized him.

It's just that my mind isn't quite ready to connect the image in front of me with that name yet.

"Madelyn."

Joanna said casually, then took a closer look at the person who had collapsed behind the desk. "That can't be right," she thought, "The face should actually be pretty intact."

"You don't recognize me?"

"..."

Ashley swallowed instinctively.

Yes, of course I know him.

Because they know each other, she's now a little unsure what to say.

Madelyn, the company's Public Relations President.

But she's my old boss, and I don't dare disobey her when she asks me to do things. She's much harder to deal with than other people.

But now it's just lying here like this?

Ashley swallowed again, this time barely managing to maintain her smile.

She felt as if she had been called in to handle something quite significant.

Even more inappropriately, a thought popped into my head.

I saw this; will I be killed to silence me?

But as soon as the thought crossed her mind, she quickly suppressed it.

Not that bad.

It shouldn't be that bad.

She hadn't done anything wrong, and Lin Mo had usually treated her quite well. If he really wanted to do something to her, why would he need to make a special phone call to bring her up from downstairs?

Thinking about this, Ashley finally felt a little calmer.

Therefore, the problem lies with Madelyn.

I just don't know what this Public Relations President did to get himself into this mess.

Ashley was very curious.

But this time, she had no intention of asking any questions.

Lin Mo didn't say anything; why should I ask about this when I've been forced into this situation?

Don't you have enough work to do already?

"Find someone to clean this up."

Lin Mo glanced at the mess on the ground and said.

You understand, right?

"OK."

Ashley nodded immediately.

"I'll arrange it right now."

She answered much faster than before, and as for the reason, she sensibly didn't ask a single extra question.

Lin Mo was quite satisfied with this.

save trouble.

Entrusting certain matters to someone who knows when to speak and when to remain silent can certainly make things much easier.

Ashley took her phone, walked to the side, and quickly dialed a number.

"Have someone come over to clean up."

"Now."

"Yes, right in Ms. Madelyn's office."

As she said this, she couldn't help but glance into the office again, and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly involuntarily.

"When you arrive, just look for me."

After hanging up the phone, Ashley lowered her head slightly, looking helplessly at the mess on the ground.

The good mood I felt when I stepped out of the elevator has long since vanished.

She thought that all she had left to do today was introduce the company to Hughie and Robin.

Then let's look at the interview section again; is there anything else that needs to be added?

As a result, they directly gave her a big surprise.

The Public Relations President is gone, so be it.

But now she has to be responsible for cleaning up; she's really just giving herself extra work to do.

Ashley pursed her lips, bent down, and helped the chair that had fallen over to its side to its right.

While helping him up, he sighed silently in his heart.

My own scope of work.

Isn't it getting a bit too broad?

Lin Mo and the others didn't stay any longer; Ashley could handle the cleanup herself.

He took Joanna's hand and walked outside.

Maeve caught up, and the A-Train quickly moved along as well.

They clearly didn't want to stay in that office any longer.

However, they had only taken a few steps.

Lin Mo seemed to suddenly remember something, and stopped in his tracks.

"Oh, right."

He turned around, then walked back to the doorway.

Ashley had just put the chair down when she heard the sound and immediately sat up straight.

"Mr. Lin Mo?"

Is there anything else?

Her heart tightened again.

Lin Mo looked at her and said casually.

Madelyn is gone.

"Her position as Public Relations President has now become vacant."

Ashley nodded; of course she knew that, and the empty seat was right next to her.

Lin Mo continued.

"From now on, you can do this as a side job."

"..."

Ashley didn't speak, not because she didn't want to answer.

The main thing is, it's like her mind suddenly went blank.

By the way, do this?

Which one?

She glanced at Lin Mo, then at the office behind her.

A few seconds later, those words finally went through a complete cycle in her mind, and she finally realized what they meant.

Public Relations President.

Ashley's eyes widened little by little.

You mean...?

She spoke, her voice trembling slightly.

"Let me take Madelyn's place?"

"Otherwise what?"

Lin Mo countered, "What you're doing now is not bad either."

"Take on more responsibility in the future."

He spoke casually, but Ashley felt her heart suddenly beating faster.

Take on more responsibility.

Is this promotion really just about taking on more responsibility?

She's been at Vought for so long.

In the past, just getting Madelyn to nod her head required running around and explaining for ages.

Now I've simply sat in the other person's seat?

Isn't this promotion a bit too sudden?

"Is there a problem?"

Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a while, Lin Mo casually asked a question.

"No!"

Ashley answered loudly immediately, then realized she might have shouted a bit too loudly, so she quickly covered her mouth and adjusted her expression.

But the upward curve of her lips was something she just couldn't quite suppress.

"No problem."

"Mr. Lin Mo, I will definitely handle this well."

"Um."

Lin Mo nodded.

"Then I'll leave this place to you."

"Don't worry."

This time, Ashley answered with exceptional confidence, waiting for the group to leave through the door.

She stood there, watching their retreating figures, stunned for a long while.

He then slowly lowered his head, looked at his hands, and then raised his head to look at the office.

An overwhelming sense of joy welled up inside her, making her instinctively tug at her hair.

Just now, downstairs, she was secretly envious of Hughie and Robin.

I think that now that Lin Mo has taken a liking to these two young people, their future is sure to get better and better.

Unexpectedly, when she turned around, an even bigger surprise fell upon her.

Ashley raised her hand to cover her mouth, but the corners of her lips still couldn't help but turn up in a smile.

hey-hey.

Hehehe.

She quickly coughed, trying to appear normal.

After all, Madelyn was still there, and she was laughing so happily in front of everyone.

It doesn't feel quite right.

However, Ashley couldn't help but glance behind the desk.

A thought quietly popped into my mind.

Madelyn.

You died a good death.
