Although Zuri had never lost a lawsuit, it didn't guarantee her receiving a law case every month. Despite her glamorous appearance, she was, in fact, in a dire situation.
Zuri and Yasmin graduated from the same university, but Yasmin's monthly salary was clearly higher and more stable than Zuri's.
When Anthony came out of the office, Yasmin quickly asked, "Mr. Swanson, Mr. Zahn is hiring Zuri, isn't he?"
She was certain that Anthony had discussed their job assignments with Carlisle during their absence. She was anxious to know whether Zuri would be joining her at Aurora Holdings, too.
Anthony lightly smiled and replied, "Aurora Holdings is establishing a Legal Affairs Department and a Legal Consulting Department. Zuri will be assigned to the Legal Consulting Department, which handles our employee's legal disputes. You and Lilian will be in the Legal Affairs Department, which handles all the internal legal matters of the
companies under Aurora Holdings."
Yasmin was thrilled to hear that.
Holding Zuri's arm, she exclaimed, "See! I told you so. However, I didn't expect Mr. Zahn to assign the Legal Consulting Department to handle employees' legal disputes. Isn't he something?"Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Zuri's eyes were tinged with tears of joy, too.
"Thank you so much, Yasmin."
"You should thank Mr. Swanson, not me. Mr. Swanson must have offered some advice to Mr. Zahn," Yasmin said.
"Thank you, Mr. Swanson," Zuri said sweetly to Anthony.
Anthony, an honest man in his 40s and father to teenagers, accepted her gratitude without any ill intentions.
He smiled and said, "You don't have to thank me. It was entirely Mr. Zahn's decision."
Lilian suddenly chimed in, "Mr. Swanson, am I keeping my previous position?"
Anthony nodded and replied, "Certainly. In addition, you should expect a 20% increment in your salary."
Lilian smiled contentedly at his reassurance, recalling that her annual salary at Wick Group used to be 200 thousand dollars.
It was normal for one to aim high and seek better opportunities. When Lilian had acquired the role of Legal Affairs Director at Wick Group, her salary barely increased, if at all.
Now that she had joined Aurora Holdings, she was promised a 20% salary increase, which would make her annual salary 240 thousand dollars.
She was quite pleased with the offer, though she disliked adapting to a new environment and mingling with new colleagues. She wasn't a fan of office politics.
Lilian glanced at Yasmin, who had shown no intention of greeting her until now. Her worries intensified inwardly.
Looking at the women, Anthony said, "By the way, Mr. Zahn wanted me to convey this message to you if any of your subordinates or acquaintances in the industry are interested in joining Aurora Holdings, you may introduce them to apply for the job. If they're accepted, you will receive a referral bonus of three months after they begin working with us."
Lilian's eyes lit up at Anthony's words, seeing it as a good opportunity to recruit her team from her former employer. Then, she wouldn't need to worry about office politics with her old teammates. Best of all, she could earn a referral bonus, too.
"Ms. Zeller, I look forward to working with you in the future," Yasmin suddenly said, extending her hand for a handshake.
With a calm expression, Lilian shook her hand and replied, "Likewise."
Yasmin smiled cheerfully and added, "Do you have any plans tonight, Ms. Zeller? Perhaps we could have dinner together."
Sensing Yasmin's friendly approach, Lilian smiled faintly and replied, "Dinner's on me then.
Yasmin quickly declined, "Oh, no! I'm the one who invited you, so the treat's on me!"
Anthony promptly interjected, "No need to fight for the bill, ladies. Tonight's dinner is on Mr. Zahn!"
Lilian was taken aback.
"Is Mr. Zahn joining us for dinner?"
Anthony shook his head and said, "No. The dinner's on him, but he probably doesn't have time to join you all."
Meanwhile, in his office, Carlisle received a call from Francis.
"Boss, I've found it. The owner behind Scholar Loan is a thug operating near Riverland University. His name is Landon Johnston," Francis reported.
"Landon Johnston?"
Carlisle frowned, recalling that it was the name Kelvin Knox had mentioned when he told him that someone planned to abduct Shein.
