Chapter 1156

I hope she’ll be okay with this…

Disgruntled, Lucy lowered her head and went silent.

I was confident that Shane would accept my request and give me a job.

That being said, why did he have to put me in the branch office? How am I going to help Sean with his
task if I’m at the branch office? Not only that, I don’t even get to see Shane when I go to work.

No, this is unacceptable. I must get into the headquarters.

Lucy took a deep breath before gazing at Silas. “Mr. Campbell, was madam the one who put me in the
office branch?”

Natalie must be the one behind this. Shane wouldn’t do that to me.

After all, I’m his savior!

That crafty woman knows that I have feelings for Shane. She must’ve planned all of this to deter me
from seeing him.

Underneath that gorgeous face, she’s just a cunning woman!

She isn’t fit to be with Shane.

I’m the only one suitable for him!

Lucy was getting riled up.

Silas gave her a frigid glare.



I have encountered copious amounts of daft women who were after Mr. Shane. However, this is the
first time I’ve seen a woman as incompetent, unattractive, and ignorant as her.

Irritated, Silas removed the smile on his face before replying, “No, Mr. Shane was the one who put you
in the branch office.”

“That can’t be true.” Lucy was incredulous.

Silas rolled his eyes. “Why can’t it be true? Like I said, Lucy, you’re not suitable to work at the
headquarters.”

“I know but, is there another alternative? I’m his savior…”

“Yes, and that’s exactly why Mr. Shane allowed you to work here without even interviewing you for the
job. Not only is your salary higher than the senior staff, but you’ll also be given a place to live. Aside
from the managers, you’re the only employee that’s getting this kind of benefit. Hence, I believe that Mr.
Shane has treated you, his savior, very well. You should be content, Ms. Rivers.”

Lucy’s face turned red as she lowered her head. “Yeah, I-I know. I just don’t think I’ll learn much in the
branch office. That’s why I…”

She’s really obstinate on working at the headquarters huh? This is starting to get galling…

Silas rubbed his eyebrow and uttered, “I understand what you want now, Ms. Rivers. How about this?
I’ll go talk to Mr. Shane about this again.”

“Okay.” Lucy’s eyes suddenly lightened up. “Thank you, Mr. Campbell.”

Silas feigned a smile and exited the room. He then gave Shane a call at the corridor.

Meanwhile, Shane was taking wedding photos with Natalie under a sycamore tree.



Connor dashed over to Shane with a cell phone in his hand. “Daddy, it’s from Mr. Campbell.”

“I’ll call him back later.” Shane was hesitant to answer the phone.

“You should pick up the phone. What if it’s an emergency?” Natalie exhorted.

After hearing her words, Shane resignedly answered the phone.

Shane’s face was getting more and more ashen as the call went on.

In the meantime, Natalie was staring cluelessly at him.

A while later, Shane hung up the call and put the cell phone down.

Natalie queried, “Shane, what’s wrong? Did something bad happen?”

“It’s nothing, really. It’s just that Lucy is rather adamant on working at the headquarters.” Shane was
getting a bit annoyed.

Natalie frowned and replied, “Looks like she’s pretty persistent. Just how badly does she want to see
you?”
