Chapter 636
After realizing Yvonne was ignoring her, Selena screamed. She quickly stopped the treadmill before plopping down on the ground. "My leg is cramping!"
Yvonne threw her a glance before hunkering down to help her out by pressing down on Selena's foot with her leg while holding down on her calf. "It's going to be a bit painful.” Selena looked at her painfully. "Thank you."
A while later, Yvonne let her leg go. "There. Stand up and walk around."
Selena hobbled around. "Loads better, but still throbbing though. Thank you so much."NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
"No problem."
It was then that Selena went up to her. "You seem familiar. You're Auspicious Inc's Vice President, aren't you?"
Yvonne snorted. "Yeah, and you're here for me, aren't you?"
Selena was shocked that Yvonne knew, but she couldn't say anything to that. The plan was to get close to her before telling her who she really was. If she finds out that I went through all this just to hire her, I bet she's going to feel a lot better about becoming president. She didn't care if she would be called a schemer; every president was the same anyway. As long as they did a good job, nobody would care. "So tell me, Miss Yard. What do you want?"
Now that they had dropped all pretense, Selena stopped acting. "Just what I like, Miss Carson. Right, to be honest, I want you to be JNS Corporation's president."
Yvonne thought Selena wanted to work with her company, but she never expected Selena to offer her the position of president. I thought she's the president. When she heard that, she stopped the treadmill again. "Why? Sick of the position?"
"I'm a mother of three, so family matters are already taking a toll on me. My husband's not around, so I have to handle Fowler Corporation and Empire Group too. It's too much for one lady, so I need someone to help out with JNS. You're the best candidate, at least to me."
Yvonne gave it some thought. "But my job is stable, and the salary's nice. I also have the shares, and I get a lot in dividends every year. So tell me, why do you think I'd work for you?"
To that, Selena answered, "Auspicious Inc. may be bigger than JNS, but JNS is still growing. Besides, Fowler Corporation and Empire Group are backing it up. I don't think anyone would let this chance slip. Name your terms."
Yvonne sipped some water. "Miss Yard, we're both women, so I guess you know what working women are like. We don't really switch jobs easily, especially women of our position."
When Selena heard that, she froze
up. Oh no. I know it's the peak of her career, but forgot that she's also a woman, and she's a mother too. The first thing a woman would consider in a job change would be their kids and family. A job change meant a change in environment and a process of relearning, as well as making profit for the company.
Different companies had different cultures and working styles. It was a great challenge to undertake, no matter who it was. If Yvonne were to change jobs, she might have to spend a year to establish herself. During that time, she'd have to sacrifice a lot for her job, including her family.
Selena's hesitation was what she expected, so vonne smiled. "Find someone else, Miss Yard. Yes, I could have been president, but it is what it is. I can live with that. You're a president, so you should know people like me are easily exploited, since I have a family to provide for."
