When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 943 An Unrelated Stranger

Jessica thought to herself. “How could Jocelyn, a mere assistant, have the audacity to address me, a guest, by my name?”

Dressed in formal attire, Jocelyn looked especially ster. “What, is there another person named Jessica here?

The expression on Jessica’s face instantly turned cold. She stood up and positioned herself in front of her.

“What’s the matter?”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

She initially intended to win over Jocelyn, but this Jocelyn was nothing like the other employees, impervious to flattery and persuasion.

By now, Jessica had given up any hope of winning her over,

“From now on, you will be the assistant to the entire secretarial department, handling all the logistics. It expect you to take responsibility for all your duties,” Jocelyn finished, then turned to the other four secretaries. “If you guys need anything done, like mailing packages or picking up takeout deliveries, you can ask Jessica to do it.”

The four secretaries couldn’t believe it. We too, have an assistant now?”

Jessica was also taken aback.

-What kind of joke is this? I’m here to take care of Cecilia, not them.”

With a blank expression, Jocelyn said, “Having accepted the salary from Rainsworth Group, it’s only right that you follow the company’s arrangements. If you’re not willing, you always have the option to resign.”

Feeling reluctant, Jessica walked up to Cecilia.

“Cecilia, please talk to her. How am I supposed to take care of you properly when I’m already looking after five secretaries all by myself?”

With a gentle smile in her eyes, Cecilia reassured, “Don’t worry, I’m just pregnant, not incapacitated. I can take care of myself.”

Jessica was taken aback. It finally dawned on her that Jocelyn was acting under Cecilia’s instruction.

In order to stay at the company, she had no choice but to agree.

The other four secretaries weren’t as easy to talk to as Cecilia.

At one moment, Jessica was asked to brew coffee, then the next she was sent to print documents, in addition to various other errands she had to run.

Since Jessica’s legs weren’t fully recovered, this latest setback left her completely incapacitated. All she could do was wait for Cecilia to finish her shift. Once Cecilia was done, she could finally leave.

Cecilia was lounging at her office desk, leisurely observing as Jessica was bossed around by four women. She was thoroughly enjoying the spectacle.

As for Cecilia, she didn’t feel comfortable eating takeot since she was with child, so she decided to dine in the restaurant downstairs.

When Jessica returned, she found Cecilia’s workstation completely empty.

“Where’s Cecilia?” she asked.

“She’s probably gone out for a meal,” a secretary replic

After hearing this, Jessica finally took a moment to sit down and rest.

Less than a minute had passed when a secretary, clearly annoyed, said, “Jessica, didn’t I ask you to tell the cook to go easy on the spice? Why is there so much chili? How am I supposed to eat this?”

As a woman of stature, it was quite unusual for Jessica to take care of these people. Eventually, she could no longer restrain herself.

“Can’t handle spicy food, can’t you order for yourself?”

After speaking, she feared being resented, so she added, “Let me make it clear, I’m here to experience life. I’m a guest of the Rainsworth family and the heiress of the Quill family. Don’t order me around, or else… hmph.”

As soon as Jessica spoke, the secretary who had been acting high and mighty toward her fell silent.

“Jessica, didn’t you say you came to the Rainsworth family to take care of me and be a nanny?” After finishing her meal, Cecilia returned to the office and couldn’t help but voice her thoughts upon hearing Jessica’s words.

Jessica hadn’t expected Cecilia to return at this time, let alone being publicly embarrassed by her.

“Cecilia…”

“I’ve already told you, there are rules to follow in the company. Since everyone is your superior, you need to follow their instructions. If you really don’t want to work, you should talk to Ms. Wright about it, Cecilia said sternly

Immediately. Jessica lowered her head. “I was only joking earlier with everyone.”

“You must be joking. After all, Rainsworth Group wouldn’t let everyone lose their jobs over you, especially considering how hard they’ve been working.”

After Cecilia finished speaking, the secretaries who were somewhat worried earlier regained their composure.

That’s right; they had never heard of Rainsworth Group firing an employee just because of some unrelated stranger.
