The Man’s Decree Novel Chapter 81

The Man’s Decree Novel Chapter 81“Didn’t you tell Mr. Jennings that Kai is an ex-convict?” Maria continued pursuing the matter.
“Of course, I did! I almost had a heart attack at the look in Mr. Jennings’ eyes at that time. If I dared to
dissuade him further, he might even demote me!”
In fact, Zayne was still fearful when he recalled Xavier’s gaze earlier.
“Don’t tell me he’s really acquainted with Mr. Jennings?” Maria’s brows creased.
“Let’s just observe how things are first. If he’s really acquainted with Mr. Jennings, we can’t target him
anymore in the future. Instead, you’ll have to fawn over him,” Zayne reminded.
“I know that!” Maria rolled her eyes before stalking out of the office.
By then, the dozen or so people in the sales department had already heard that the general manager
himself gave the order to employ an ex-convict.
Such a matter spread very quickly in the company, especially a gossip like this.
“That man named Kai must be somehow associated with Mr. Jennings. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have
been hired!”
“I can’t help feeling scared that an ex-convict is going to work alongside me.”
“We’ve got to be careful when he arrives later. If he really knows Mr. Jennings, we’ll be dead if we
accidentally offend him!”
The staff in the sales department gathered and whispered among themselves.
“What are you all doing? Do you not have any work?” Maria reproached coldly upon seeing everyone
gossiping together when she exited the office.Although she was merely an ordinary sales representative in the sales department, she always threw
her weight around. After all, no one dared to offend her when Zayne was the department manager.
Following her reprimand, everyone dispersed. Only a girl with short hair headed toward her.
That girl was known as Lydia Wilson, and she was very close to Maria.
“Maria, have you heard that the sales department has recruited an ex-convict? And it’s rumored that
Mr. Jennings himself made the hiring decision, so they’re probably associated somehow,” Lydia
whispered to Maria.
“Nonsense! How could he possibly have any association with Mr. Jennings? It’s just dumb luck!”
Maria didn’t believe that Kai really had anything to do with the general manager.
At that, Lydia was taken back. “Are you acquainted with that man named Kai?”
Realizing her slip of the tongue, Maria hastily shook her head. “I’m not acquainted with any ex-convict! I
just feel that he can’t possibly have any association with Mr. Jennings when he had just gotten out of
prison. Anyway, don’t simply gossip about him! I’ll ask Mr. Carlson to inquire about it from Mr.
Jennings.”
About an hour later, Kai finally completed the onboarding procedures. After getting an employee ID, he
went to the sales department.
When he arrived, he noticed everyone staring at him wide-eyed. That had him rather discomfited.
“Congratulations on joining the sales department, Kai! Make sure that you cherish this opportunity,”
Zayne said to Kai in a calm voice.
He didn’t dare target the man before he had ascertained whether he was associated with Xavier.In response, Kai nodded.
“Come here for a moment, Troy!” Zayne called out to a bespectacled young-looking man.
The man promptly trotted over and murmured timidly, “You called for me, Mr. Carlson?”
“You’ll be Kai’s mentor henceforth. You both will be in a team, so remember to teach him the ropes,”
Zayne instructed him.
novelbinThe man glanced at Kai with a conflicted expression.
“Why, do you have an objection to that?” Zayne threw him a glare.
The man quickly shook his head. “No, no…”
At his acquiescence, a smile bloomed on Zayne’s face. He then turned to Kai. “Go with him. Your desk
is adjacent to his.”
Having said that, he pivoted and returned to his office.
The other colleagues in the sales department regarded Kai with a smirk. Maria also stifled a giggle as
she went back to her seat.
