Chapter

”Famous Financier Jeff Hawthorne disappeared in Mexico".

“Jeff Hawthorne has been missing for 72 hours after attending the Latin America Summit. The Hawthorne Group states that the company's operations will not be affected and that Rebecca Ramsden is acting as CEO.“

......

She stood in front of a floor-to-ceiling window overlooking a bay, her eyes focused on the neon advertisement on the high-rise building across the water that read - "The Hawthorne Group"

The glass window is so clean, so clean that she almost forgot to look through the barrier, facing this long-accustomed view, she did not want to enjoy, but must rely on this familiarity to restrain her boredom and helplessness.

At this time she heard footsteps, subconsciously turned quickly, thinking it was the man, but found that it was the secretary Jim who had arrived only six months ago, and the other side was a little wary and fearful, as if he had accidentally disturbed his rest time and was preparing to be scolded by his own expression.

"Madam."

She was silent for a few seconds before saying, "What is it?"

"Mrs. Olive has blocked the cars at the door and won't let the employees in or out, I've opened the parking lot access to evacuate as you instructed, but Mrs. Olive has said she won't leave until she sees you down there."

She squinted her eyes slightly and turned her head to look at the large table with the fancy black leather chairs not far away. Everything was placed at the perfect angle, the slight tilt of the computer screen, the 45-degree angle of the pencil holder, the phone's connecting cable neatly stuck in a snap that was similar in color to the table.

Again, has not changed because of the missing person.

"If it's Mr. Jeff, do you think that he will go down there?"

Without thinking, Jim replied, "No."

"So, I don't need to go down there either." She said. "I'm Mr. Jeff's acting president certified through the bar with the court, and I'm equal to him, and I'll do what he will do."

Jim looked at Rebecca's calm and serious attitude, he nodded slightly, "I understand, I will arrange security to ask Mrs. Olive to leave again."

"Please contact the police if she don't leave."

"Understood."

Before Jim turned to leave, he turned toward a tired-looking Rebecca and said, "Rebecca, you ...... have worked hard."

She exhaled softly and didn't say anything.

Faced with the disappearance of her boss on a business trip and the ensuing internal and external problems, she has not closed her eyes for 24 hours straight, but she knows that she cannot collapse.

The suspicion that she was Jeff's assistant and did not travel with him throughout the meeting had already caused suspicion among the relevant law enforcement agencies, although there was no evidence. It was enough to put her in serious trouble.

She is confronted by the next of kin of the Hawthorne family at the shareholders' meeting, and Olive Hawthorne, a director - Jeff's aunt, a woman who is disgusting in every way - uses all her harsh words to hold herself responsible for Jeff's disappearance.

At this point, Jeff's legal team arrived on the scene and produced a copy of Jeff's past representation contract, stating that if anything were to happen to him, Rebecca, his special assistant, would represent him in all his corporate and personal matters.

When the contract was announced, the first to protest was the aunt, and several of the group's senior officials led by the aunt, who angrily stated that the contract was invalid.

They questione whether Rebecca might have known about the existence of the contract and therefore set up Jeff's disappearance in order to seize it all.

However, this claim was immediately denied by the legal team. The contract was privately negotiated by Jeff with the legal team in secret, and no one knew the real content of the agency contract except Jeff and the legal representative during the process. The electronic file of the contract was locked in the highest level system file, which only Jeff himself could open.

What's more, Mr. George, as Jeff's lawyer delegation, has served as the White House counsel as well as the personal lawyer of many famous tycoons, with high status and extraordinary price, Rebecca is not able to threaten and entice this barrister in front of her.

Because of this contract, Rebecca became the acting CEO of The Hawthorne Group and took up her position immediately.

Thinking about these things, the subordinates of a hard work, but also into a little comfort.

"All of troubles."

Once these words came out, Jim suddenly laughed out loud.

"Although you are acting Mr. Jeff, Mr. Jeff never said trouble." Jim teased. "Suddenly I think, there is nothing wrong with you in this position, Madam."

The door slowly closes.

And she got another headache from the name calling.

Madam?

Hell knows she was just secretary before this.
