Chapter 1037 Keep It a Secret
Chapter 1037 Keep It a Secret
"Of course, I'm a good boss." Julien lifted his chin slightly. His face was filled with complacency.
Sydney's lips twitched. "Don't you know that I'm being ironic?"
She knew that he liked to exploit Zach.
But she didn't expect him to exploit Zach extravagantly!
Besides, it seemed that Julien didn't think that he was wrong.
Julien leaned against the chair and replied with a smile, "I know it."
He wasn't stupid. Of course, he knew what she drove at.
"Then why are you so complacent?" Sydney rolled her eyes at him.
Julien smiled. "If I hadn't asked Zach to work overtime, I would have worked overtime and had less time to be with you. So I naturally asked him to work overtime. After all, he's single and has much free time."
What Julien had said was shameless, but he said so plausibly. Sydney was stuck for words. She felt angry but funny. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
She sympathized with Zach.
'How can Julien exploit Zach just because Zach is single?'
Sydney supported her forehead and said resignedly, "If you hadn't squeezed Zach all the time, he would have had time to find a girlfriend and wouldn't have been single."
Julien fell silent.
'It sounds reasonable.
'But I can't admit it.
'If I admit it, it will be my fault that Zach has been single all the time.
'Thus, I mustn't admit it.'
Thinking of that, Julien covered his mouth with his hand and coughed slightly to hide his true thoughts. He replied calmly, "It's not because of me that Zach is single. It's because he is reluctant to find a girlfriend. If he is willing, he will make time to find a girlfriend no matter how busy he is."
'All in all, it has nothing to do with me.'
Of course, Sydney knew that Julien was chopping logic and was reluctant to admit it. She pulled a wry face and shook her head. "You're right. It has nothing to do with you. You're the most considerate boss. You're such a nice boss. It's impossible for you not to give your employees time to find girlfriends, right?"
Hearing that, Julien nodded shamelessly.
'That's it.'
Sydney's mouth twitched even more violently.
'He's too shameless.
'I praised him on purpose to tease him, but he accepted my praise without hesitation and didn't feel guilty at all.
'It's funny.'
Sydney rolled her eyes and said, "Alright, please don't exploit Zach too much. After all, you're still young and will work together for several decades in the future. If you squeeze him like that and prematurely age him, he won't be able to work beside you in the following several decades. Are you sure that you can find another subordinate who cooperates with you well and understands you?"
Julien moved his thin lips. After a while, he said, "Leaf."
“Yes?” Sydney tilted her head.
"You…" Julien compressed his lips and drawled. After a few seconds, he exhaled slightly and said, "It seems that you're crueler than me and exploit Zach more."
Sydney felt confused. "What do you mean? Why am I crueler than you?"
'Don't wrong me!'
Julien said with a smile, "I admit that I'm strict with Zach, but I have never thought about letting let him work beside me all the time, but you want him to work beside me for the following decades. It seems that you want to bind him to the Flint Corporation for the rest of his life and make him dedicate himself to the Flint Corporation."
Hearing that, Sydney fell into a trance. Then she flushed, panicked and even stammered, "I… I don't mean that. I... I just want you not to exploit Zach too much. I don't mean I want him to work in the Flint Corporation for the rest of his life."
Her voice became lighter as she said. She lowered her head and felt guilty.
Sydney didn't mean that, but what she had said just sounded like that.
Thus, she felt guilty.
After all, what Sydney had said was inappropriate.
In the video, Julien saw the shy and embarrassed Sydney and smiled more brightly.
If Sydney were by his side, Julien would hug her tightly and kiss her.
Sydney was so adorable.
Usually, Sydney looked intellectual and preferred the dressing style of able women. Thus, she rarely acted like a cute little girl, and it was rare for him to see that.
However, every time Julien saw Sydney like that, he would flip for her.
When Julien saw that Sydney acted like a cute little girl just now, he felt that his heart beat heavily and he became excited.
"I know that you don't mean that. I'm teasing you." Julien slightly tilted his head, rested it in his hand and looked at her in the video. His posture was leisurely but charming.
Sydney glared at him. "You always like to tease me."
Julien chuckled in a deep and pleasant voice. "Alright, I won't tease you anymore."
Sydney snorted and let it go. Then she looked at him curiously. "You said that you had never thought about letting Zach work beside you all the time. What do you mean? Do you want to fire him?"
Julien shook his head. "Of course not. Zach has 0.2% of the Flint Corporation's primitive stocks, so he is not only my special assistant but also a stockholder of the Flint Corporation. He will be bound to the Flint Corporation for the rest of his life. I plan to appoint him as the director of one of the subsidiaries of the Flint Corporation at the right time, so I said that I had never planned to let him
work beside me all the time. He is capable. It's wasteful to let him be my special assistant all the time."
"I see." Sydney had a moment of enlightenment and nodded. "I have heard that the bosses of large groups will appoint their right-hand men as the directors of subsidiaries. It turns out that it's true."
Julien narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Of course, it's true. The employees, who work beside me, are almost the people that I trust. Appointing them as the directors of subsidiaries is to approve of them, and I don't need to worry that the directors of subsidiaries will betray me."
Sydney touched her chin. "Got it. All in all, you will appoint your secretaries and assistants as the directors of subsidiaries one by one."
Julien nodded. "You're right. I can't let them be my secretaries and assistants all the time. They're all capable. I respect their talent, so I won't keep them working by my side. I let them work beside me now because I'm training them."
"Got it." Sydney smoothed her hair back.
'I learned a tactic from Julien again.
'If Skylight Corporation also has subsidiaries, I will have the chance to apply the tactic.
'It doesn't matter that I can't apply it now. Skylight Corporation is developing and will have subsidiaries.
'After Skylight Corporation develops, I will be able to appoint the employees who I think highly of as the directors of subsidiaries, just like what Julien has done.'
Thinking of that, Sydney couldn't help but laugh. She was like a little squirrel that ate pine nuts secretly.
Seeing that, Julien asked curiously, "Why are you laughing?"
"Nothing special." Sydney waved her hand and was reluctant to tell him.
She was afraid that he would laugh at her for lacking self-knowledge and daydreaming.
After all, she wasn't sure how much time it would take to let Skylight Corporation be like the Flint Corporation.
She didn't even know if she could make it.
Thus, she would better keep it a secret.
