CHAPTER 94: CHAPTER 94: WORKING AT GRANDEUR

But now, Lan Yancy’s attitude makes her understand that she has work to do, and there’s quite a lot.

"I understand. Thank you, Assistant Yancy."

Lan Yancy smiled and left.

Lan Yancy is handsome, with the typical face of an elite professional, rarely engaging in such casual conversations.

Seeing Lan Yancy’s attitude towards Eleanor Hollis, everyone instantly had a thought—this woman knows Assistant Yancy.

Eleanor Hollis had just sat down when the internal line rang, and she quickly picked it up.

"How are you adjusting?"

Hugo Quinn’s gentle voice came through, causing her face to flush, fearing her abnormality would be noticed, she quickly lowered her head, "Mm, thank you."

Hugo Quinn’s lips curved slightly; suddenly he felt like seeing her.

"If you’re settling in, bring a cup of coffee in."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

After hanging up the phone, Eleanor Hollis walked over to the coffee brewing area.

Actually, she knows how to brew coffee. Back when she was with the Quinton Family, she tried countless ways to ease the tension with Nathaniel Quinn.

Knowing Nathaniel Quinn had a habit of drinking coffee, she learned the skill, but the coffee she made often ended up in the trash.

There wasn’t a dedicated coffee brewing spot in the top office, only instant coffee, so she made a cup for Hugo Quinn and brought it into the office.

Hugo Quinn was seriously looking at a document, but upon hearing the door open, he looked up.

It was the first time Hugo Quinn saw Eleanor Hollis dressed so formally, blending a hint of mature woman’s charm with her usual innocence, causing a warm rush to his heart.

"President Quinn, your coffee."

She no longer called him Mr. Quinn, directly addressing him as President Quinn.

Hugo Quinn’s previously cheerful mood instantly fell.

"Come over here."

His fingertip tapped on the black desk, lips plucking into a displeased pout.

Eleanor Hollis didn’t know what she said to upset him, so she quickly walked over with the coffee.

Hugo Quinn took the coffee from her hand, and in one motion grabbed her hand, "Calling me President Quinn? Hmm?"

The word "hmm" rose in pitch, making it incredibly seductive.

Eleanor Hollis felt a current run through her hand, spreading through her entire body.

This man is really too alluring, especially accompanied by an extraordinary appearance. When he’s seriously flirting, no woman is a match.

"We’re at the office now, if I don’t call you that, people will talk."

Eleanor Hollis blushed, not daring to meet his eyes, slowly shifting her gaze.

Hugo Quinn’s expression softened, pulling her into his arms, "With me here, who would dare say anything? How’s the first day at work going?"

The way Hugo Quinn pulled her left Eleanor Hollis sitting directly on his lap; afraid someone might suddenly walk in, she started to struggle.

"Don’t move."

He said softly, holding her tighter, lips curving with delight.

Finally luring her into Grandeur, all his efforts were worth it.

This woman now had to stay within his sight. They say proximity brings intimacy; he wondered when he’d openly win the beauty’s heart.

Eleanor Hollis felt that their behavior wasn’t proper, but knowing Hugo Quinn’s temper, she obediently stopped moving, "It’s great, I can understand the materials."

She was initially worried she wouldn’t comprehend them, but after a careful look, she realized they were things she’d encountered before—not too difficult, and with focus, she could understand.

"Mm, if there’s anything unclear, you can come in to ask me."

A top CEO personally advising a newcomer; if others knew, they’d surely speculate about her relationship with Hugo Quinn.

"No need, I can just ask Lan Yancy."

Hugo Quinn felt a bit of discontent but guessed her thoughts, finding it amusing.

Outside, so many people wanted to form connections with him, but this woman, when offered an olive branch, fearfully rejected.

"Mm, asking him is fine too."

He released her, took a sip of coffee, "Nicely brewed coffee."

Eleanor Hollis felt a tug at the corner of her mouth, somehow raising a light smile—it was just a regular cup of coffee.

"If there’s nothing else, I’ll head out."

She’d been in there for quite a while, best not to attract idle gossip.

"Go ahead."

Hugo Quinn smiled at her, then returned his gaze to the documents.

She felt a strange sweetness inside, quickly exiting the office.

Sitting back at her desk, her heart was still sweet, curious as to why; it seemed Hugo Quinn hadn’t done anything special?

She cleared away chaotic thoughts and seriously looked at the materials Lan Yancy gave her.

The more she read, the more astonished she was; Lan Yancy truly was Hugo Quinn’s most capable assistant.

This stack of materials gradually increased in difficulty from top to bottom, like learning a subject.

The top contained very basic information, but as she went lower, the topics deepened, but thanks to the foundational knowledge, it wasn’t hard to comprehend.

Lan Yancy had unwittingly taught her the tasks required for her position.

Eleanor Hollis read for two or three hours straight until people around her gradually disappeared, only then did she lift her head.

She checked the time and realized it was lunchtime.

The only person she knew at Grandeur was Hugo Quinn, but she couldn’t dine with him, so she walked alone to the employee cafeteria.

Grandeur was impressive; every employee’s seat had a timetable attached, and there were directional signs everywhere, so newcomers wouldn’t get lost.

She quickly found the employee cafeteria and bought a standard meal.

Seeing the rich options inside, she once again marveled internally—Grandeur Group truly lived up to its name.

"Wow, it’s the CEO, what is he doing here?"

"No way, the CEO is walking towards me!!"

Eleanor Hollis was eating with her head down when she heard people around her speaking.

She quickly looked up and indeed saw Hugo Quinn cutting through the crowd.

For some reason, she felt that he must be coming for her.

She hurriedly ducked her head again, not wanting to be the focus of attention.

Unfortunately, Hugo Quinn had already spotted her and elegantly made his way over, sitting across from her.

Eleanor Hollis froze; she felt she might be pierced by the gazes of surrounding women—could he be doing this on purpose, making her the center of attention?

Following behind Hugo Quinn, Lan Yancy promptly brought over several small dishes, dutifully arranging them before the two.

Eleanor Hollis felt a sense of despair as everyone’s gaze turned toward them, but due to Hugo Quinn’s authority, no one dared approach.

"Mr... President Quinn..."

She said nervously, wanting to quietly leave the spot, but Hugo Quinn gave her a light glance, instantly pinning her in place.

"You’re only having this little for lunch?"
