My Husband Is A Secret Billionaire By Wiuu

Chapter 41

Chapter 41 Kate’s expression flickered, her gaze shifting as she looked at Jane in a different way. She hadn’t considered this angle! Putting herself in their shoes, Kate would certainly lean towards her own self interests. After all, she wasn’t Mother Teresa. “It seems I still have a lot to learn about but when you do speak up, you make a lot of “e! Kate laughed. “Jane, you usually don’t talk “My judgment is not necessarily correct” jane responded with a soft laugh. “But Dan told me to be on my guard and to be careful in everything. He also said that those in high positions didn’t have an easy ride to the top, they are far from as simple as they appear.” “Oh, your husband has turned life coach now, has he?” What started as a playful jah from Kate turned into an unstoppable flurry as Jane began to show off her husband. “Of course, Dan’s got his fingers in many pies!” Jane couldn’t contain her pride. “Kate, you won’t believe, he frequently surfs foreign websites, he’s a polyglot and stays updated with current affairs

100!” “What?” Kate was incredulous. Thinking back to her first encounter with Dan, his imposing aura and powerful presence, if she hadn’t known about his brushes with the law, she might have mistaken him for a big shot. “Jane, how well do you really know your husband?“ Jane was taken aback. “Why the sudden curiosity?” Kate gave a wry smile. “Just making conversation! You’ve painted him as quite the enigma, I’m getting a little curious now!” Jane’s innocent laughter rang out, but upon reflection, she realized she didn’t know much about Dan. Beyond his “glorious past and the fact that he had no family left, she didn’t have much to go on. The next day, as soon as Jane went to work, she was summoned by Ben to his office.

Jane was a tad uneasy, while Hen wore a warm smile. He courteously offered her a cup of coffee served by his secretary, then sat across from her, sizing her up in silence. “So you’re Jane l’allon,” Ben chuckled. Tye been hearing about a go-getter in the sales department who won the order from Mr. Shaw just the second month into the job. I’ve been wanting to meet you, and finally, today’s the day!” “You must be joking, Mr. Colt.” Jane placed her coffee cup down, her demeanor calm and composed. “In reality, you could have met me anytime. But you’re a busy man, and my performance, compared to others in the sales department, doesn’t exactly make me a standout.” Ben squinted, taking in Jane from head to toe once more. Jane was not only a looker but also quite the smooth talker. Her words were reasonable, giving him face while downplaying her own merits, indeed a true talent. No wonder his niece was shaking in her boots when it came to her. However, the company was currently in a spot where every hand on deck was needed. Losing such a talent would be a loss for the company. Giving Jane a hard time could happen at any moment, but not in plain sight. She needed to feel the heat, but to the rest of the world, it would seem like she’s being groomed by the company and its leaders. Only in this way could he achieve his goal. Ben twirled his gold pinky ring and gave a sly fox-like grin. “Jane, I brought you here today because I’ve got an assignment for you.” Jane looked up at him. “The company has always had its sights on the Central City market, we even started planning it a few years back,” said Ben casually. “But it’s a tough nut to cr ack, more competitors than customers, everyone’s got their eyes on it. Our company has no advantages, we’re forced to sit back and watch others rake in the dough. “Now we’ve lost two key workers from the sales department, taking quite a few clients with them. The market situation is looking pretty serious. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

“So, we shareholders discussed and decided to promote young people with ability and performance.” Jane furrowed her brow slightly, her heart pounding like a drum. Ben gazed at her with a gentle smile, but his eyes reflected a hidden complexity. “We all think that you’re the perfect fit for this position, Jane Fallon.” “Mr. Colt, are you implying…” “The capable should work harder.” Ben said emphatically. “You’re the best pick to take on the Central City market.” Jane’s eyes darted around, and she was suddenly felt a sense of unease. “We’ve all seen your previous sales plans, they’re top-notch,” Ben complimented her. “Your impressive performance is there for all to see, and your abilities are exceptional, no one wants to miss out on talent like yours! “If you can cra ck the Central City market, the board won’t just let you be a team lead, they’ll promote you to sales manager, fill Adam’s shoes. What do you reckon?” Exiting Ben’s office, Jane took a few deep breaths to rein in her racing heart, She gave her face a few slaps, furrowed her brows and found her mind in a whirl. She hadn’t been in the workforce for long and dealt with everything by instinct in most situations. She couldn’t get a read on what Ben was scheming, what kind of game he was playing, whether she was a pawn or cannon fodder in his plan. The bait of the sales manager position was hard to ignore, and she felt that cracking the Central City market was a worthwhile challenge. But was this a golden opportunity or a ticking time bomb? Sighing, Jane wanted to return to her desk to mull things over, but someone walked up to her, throwing a scornful laugh her way. Com
