Chapter 1237  [Bonus chapter] Golden Egg

"Morning, Chief!" greeted Cloe as soon as Raelle walked out of the elevator.

Raelle stopped. No, not because of the greeting but because of the entourage she had with her. She looked at those people standing in line who actually bowed their heads to greet her, "Good morning, President!"

Cloe's lips twitched seeing this scene. She had warned these people not to do this kind of greeting.

"Do you have too much time on your hand, Cloe?"

"No," she replied. "I don't, Chief!"

"Then what are you doing here welcoming me? You could definitely utilize this time in a more efficient and productive way. Don't you agree?"

Cloe smiled at her so forcefully that her cheeks hurt, "Yes, you're right. As always, Chief."

"Indeed. I am."

Cloe felt like she was a bit off this morning, and she felt bad for the people behind her. However, she still had to introduce them today, "These are the candidates chosen for your assistant's position."

This time Raelle did turn to pay attention to the five people behind Cloe. Three men and two women. All looked quite capable and highly qualified.

"And?" asked Raelle.

Cloe took a deep breath and said to these people, "Introduce yourselves!"

"I'm Amanda! I'm 23 years old. I graduated from..."

Seeing Raelle raising her hand she stopped and Raelle looked at Cloe was pissed off as she glared at Amanda. Didn't she tell these people how to introduce themselves? Everyone knew Raelle hated wasting time. Did they think she was so free to listen to them chat about how they were and where did they come from or where they graduated from? Trying to get ahead in the workplace was a good practice but being over smart was never a good one!

"I never knew you are so good at selecting people, Cloe!"

Cloe could actually hear the naked sarcasm and she couldn't do anything about it either. Even she was wondering if there was something wrong with her selection? The one golden rule of following Raelle Xiang was; Follow instructions!

They couldn't even follow her instructions right now. She wondered if they'd be able to follow Raelle's instructions in the future.

"President Raelle, I'm Huo Xizhou!" introduced the rather young man. He looked like a fresh graduate and that surprised Raelle since she thought they were selecting candidates internally.

"I'm Hannah Su!"

"I'm..."

The rest of them introduced themselves in the same pattern. Just their names. And that's all Cloe had asked them to do. Was it that difficult? She didn't think so until she saw the blunder they made.

Raelle's eyes didn't settle on any of them except for Huo Xizhou and that was only because of his age. "Cloe, follow me!"

"Yes, Chief!"

Watching Raelle leave, Cloe called out to her own assistant, "Xiao Bai!"

"Yes!"

"Take them and teach them how to follow instructions. And if they can't do that by the end of the day. Send them back to their old positions!"

Xiao Bai looked at the five of them with a bit of sympathy before nodding, "Yes!"

"I'm going to Chief's office!" said Cloe but didn't move immediately.

"Best of luck, Ms. Cloe!"

Cloe gave an awkward smile and went to Raelle's office. And as soon as she entered, "I can explain this, Chief."

"Can you now?" asked Raelle as she took off her blazer and hung it on the coat hanger. "But do I need to remind you that I don't like explanations?"

"No reminder. I remember it."

"First, tell me. Why did you even bring them to me? Didn't I tell you to do the selection?"

"This is why," answered Cloe. "I wanted you to see them. And I also understand that not everyone can stand your pressure. So, I was meaning to filter them out through this way. After all, not everyone dares to work so close to Raelle Xiang just because the position looks like a golden egg."

"Really? This position is like the golden egg?" asked Raelle in surprise.

"Yes, that's what I heard from the employees around," answered Cloe.

"What else did they say?"

Cloe frowned at Raelle's mannerisms which looked like she was ready to listen to some gossip right now. So, she just followed her instructions and told her, "They also said these people are foolish and think being President's assistant is like flying to the sky. Like getting the golden egg. After all, golden eggs are found in a dragon's lair. How can you get them so easily without any casualties? When you enter the dragon's lair, you have to pay a price."

"Wow!" said Raelle. "Wait. I have become a dragon now? Am I that lustful?"

Cloe coughed and hit her chest. Raelle pushed water towards her which she took and drank slowly to stop her coughing and gave Raelle a strange look.

"What? Did I say something wrong? Don't they say dragons are lustful? That's what I heard. You heard something different."

"Chief, don't you think your focus is wrong, right now?" asked Cloe.

"What else should I focus on? They aren't exactly wrong with what they are saying. You should know that better. You have paid a lot to sit stably in your position beside me for so long. Don't you think so?"

"As long as you acknowledge my hard work, I don't mind paying this price."

Raelle shook her head, "Foolish. I didn't think I trained a foolish assistant like you."

Cloe smiled in response and told her, "I wanted you to at least know the names and faces of the candidates I chose. I have been training them for a while. I thought they would have made some progress but it seems, I was expecting too much."

"Everyone wants to get ahead."

"But you don't like people who use their smartness at the wrong place," reminded Cloe.

"If you say it like that, I'd be unwilling to let you go, Cloe! Where will I find an assistant who knows me so well?"

Cloe smiled at her. "I hope in the future you also keep an eye on these people. You'd have to interact with them at some level. Or else, how would we understand if they can handle you or not?"
