Chapter 95: Treated Coldly by Other Staff
The Morris Group had a long historical background. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
The Morris Group used to be a pawn shop a decade ago, and the founder earned a fortune from the business. Then, the founder started to make connections and stored resources. After gaining a certain amount of wealth, the founder and his successors expanded their business into other industries like restaurants, hotels, logistics, educations, and last but not least, the realty industry. The Morris Group had properties all over Country B.
All the famous buildings in Country B, including shopping malls, residences, hotels, iconic buildings, were built by the Morris Group.
Gianna walked into the lift and pressed a button.
The job Alexander got for Gianna was the Director of the Marketing Department. Her role was mainly responsible for the sales of the projects from the Morris Group.
The reason why Alexander gave Gianna this role was because, firstly, Helen was the Manager here and her supervisor was the Sales Director. However, The Sales Director became the General Manager in another branch appointed by Alexander. Secondly, the ability to make sales was the most important thing for a company. The core technology and professional knowledge were only the abilities of a company. There was nothing much other than to develop according to the market. What would really improve a person was to involve them in the marketing process.
Working in the Marketing Department allowed one to understand the economic status and the marketing in no time. The person will also learn what talent the market needs very quickly.
No wonder Alexander was so excited when Gianna said she wanted to work in the Morris Group and became Gemma’s supervisor. Alexander accepted Gianna’s request right away.
It was exactly the same career direction Alexander planned for Gianna before this.
The lift stopped.
Gianna walked into the Marketing Department.
It was a huge workspace.
It was still early, but all the staff already sat in their own space. Their laptop was turned on, and they had started working.
Gianna headed to the reception counter of the Marketing Department and asked politely, “May I know where’s the Director’s office?”
“You’re looking for our Director?” the staff asked casually.
“No, I’m…”
The internal phone on the desk suddenly rang.
The staff picked up the phone and changed her tone, “Hi, this is Marketing Department.”
“Hannah, Ms. Morris had already headed upstairs. Be sure to welcome her,” the person on the other side of the phone sounded serious.
“Sure. I will head to the lift right away. May I know what Ms. Morris is wearing today?”
“She’s wearing a white shirt, black skirt and a khaki wind coat.”
“Understood.”
Hannah hung up the phone. Then, she realized Gianna was still standing at the counter. Hannah replied casually, “I’m sorry, I have an important person coming today. If you’re looking for the director, head straight after turning left in the open space, then you will see two offices at the end of the road. One of it has the Director sign on it.”
Hannah quickly walked away without looking at Gianna after finishing her words.
Gianna smiled and remained silent. She walked to the office as instructed by Hannah.
It was easy to know how powerful Helen was in the team. As a manager, everything she used was way better than a director.
Gianna stopped in front of the Director office. She pushed the door and walked into the room.
Gianna was surprised at what she saw.
The office was a mess.
The last director probably left in hurry. He had to pack his staff last night and left the office. The cleaner hadn’t even had the chance to clean up the place this morning.
Gianna walked out of the office after a while. She stopped a cleaner when she saw one walking past her, “Hi, can you please help to clean up the room?”
“I’m busy,” the cleaner refused to help, “I haven’t even had the room beside cleaned. I don’t have time to clean another one. You have to either clean it yourself or wait for me to come after cleaning up the other room.”
Then, the cleaner left in hurry.
Gianna’s expression changed.
She walked over to another room and saw the Manager sign hanging at the door.
So, it was Gemma’s room.
Gianna and Gemma entered the Morris Group on the same day.
And the Marketing team chose to prepare the place Gemma first.
Gemma’s office was packed with people. It was clean and neat. They even put flowers on her desk.
The office was well-decorated.
After a while, a somewhat nervous woman walked past Gianna and said from afar, “Is it ready? Ms. Morris is almost here. She’s now getting to know our staff.”
“Yes,” the person in charge said, “It’s ready.”
“Then come to the entrance and welcome Ms. Morris. Yes, stand on both sides of the door. Bow and greet her once she arrived.”
“Yes.”
The woman was leaving Gemma’s office. Suddenly, she rushed back in.
Gianna saw her took a bottle of perfume out of her clothes and sprayed it in the air. Then, the woman left hurriedly.
Gianna also left the office and stood aside.
The staff lined up beside the door in two rolls. One of them can’t help wondering, “What is the difference between this Ms. Morris and the previous ones?”
“What difference? They were both from the Morris, and we’re should never provoke them. Stay sharp. Don’t make any mistakes. No one can help you if you make any mistake. Even the director has to be polite to Ms. Morris. You understood?”
“Understood,” the staff replied. All the staff looked nervous.
Everyone tried to display their best attitude.
A bunch of people were approaching the Marketing Department from afar.
Gemma walked in front of the bunch of people. Hannah, who didn’t pay attention to Gianna, was walking beside Gemma, followed by many staff at the back.
They looked vigorous.
Gianna stood aside and sized Gemma up.
If Gianna never saw Gemma humble attitude in the Morris manor, she would never relate this proud and arrogant woman in professional attire with the humble Gemma she knew.
Gianna recalled her past life. Gemma slept with Caesar and insulted Gianna as a cheap woman. Gemma teased Gianna for being useless and that Gianna humiliated Caesar.
Gianna now knew being a housewife and putting all her attention and effort into Caesar in her past life did make her cheap.
“Good morning, Ms. Morris,” someone led the greeting with a clear and loud voice.
The staff bowed politely at Gemma.
Gemma looked around. She didn’t pose any sign of fear of what she saw. Gemma even looked arrogant.
Gemma was only a twenty-two years old fresh graduate. The fact that she could still remain calm in an environment full of strangers, and even looked like she was used to these environments, did make Gemma a capable and skilful person.
Gemma nodded her head.
Gemma displayed her superiority, at the same time, made herself looked distant.
She was about to walk past the staff in her heel in a superior attitude.
“Gemma.”
Suddenly, a plain voice came out of nowhere.
