Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 377 Unintentionally Offended

Upon reaching Mr. Clemens' office, Victoria informed Sadie directly that her position had been changed.

She would no longer manage the front desk reception but was reassigned to the document center to handle printing and organizing tasks.

Having been working here a while, Sadie was aware that this new position was just as low-level as her former job at the front desk on the 68th floor.

At least at the front desk, she had the chance to see Mr. Clemens and other executives regularly. Moreover, if she made a good impression or caught the higher-ups in a favorable mood, there was always a shot at a promotion. Being relegated to document printing was like being sent to the doghouse.

Every day at work meant hunkering down in a tiny office, waiting for senior secretaries to send over a barrage of electronic documents to print them, file them neatly, and deliver them to the appropriate personnel. It was a role with no prospects of advancement but little room for error.

Sadie knew she hadn't been performing well lately. A transfer was only to be expected.

So she packed up her things without protest and moved to the file room.

There, she met three girls responsible for the same tasks, idly scrolling through their phones when things were slow but buzzing with activity when there was work to be done. One girl, upon seeing Sadie arrive, said coldly, "Great, another insider dumped on us. What a nuisance!"

"Insider?"

"Think about it. A regular receptionist is always taking days off, but she hasn't been fired yet. If that's not insider treatment, what is?"

"Yeah, you're right..."

Sadie overheard this chatter but said nothing. She just placed her belongings on her desk and concentrated on reviewing the training materials.

Here, there was more downtime and ample opportunity to study.

Sadie had a light morning. She printed a few documents for Victoria and then sat down to read some materials, learning about a new project through these documents by chance.

It turned out that the Lingston Group had approached the Clemens to partner up and develop 2,000 acres of land near Foothill Lake into an international brand amusement park, complete with an adjacent theme park hotel and other facilities. This massive project required investment to the tune of over forty billion dollars, which was well beyond the Lingston Group's solo financial capacity, hence the partnership with the Clemens.

Micah had seen the potential in this venture and had beenquick to make a deal!

After carefully reviewing the relevant documents, Sadie noticed an issue. Not all of the 2,000 acres were vacant. Part of it required demolition, including seven factories and old residences owned by the Roth Group.

Sadie didn't much care about the other areas, but the Roth Group's caught her attention immediately.

Though the Roth Group had fallen into the hands of Felipe and a few of her uncles, it still bore the Roth name. After all, it was the empire her father had built from the ground up, not to mention the villa he had constructed especially for her... Now that it was in the possession of Felipe's family, Sadie felt deeply uncomfortable, and the thought of it being demolished left her feeling like she would lose even the memories.

"Sadie, Sadie..." An irritable call snapped Sadie out of her reverie.

She turned to her colleague, "What's up?"

"Why are you daydreaming during work hours?" Her coworker scowled disapprovingly. "Take these papers over to Miss Lynn." "Certainly." Sadie swiftly grabbed the documents and hurried off to replace Victoria.

Victoria was busy doling out work assignments. As Sadie approached, she gestured for her to wait a moment.

Clutching the stack of papers, Sadie stood by for twenty minutes, but Victoria didn't even glance her way and continued her work.

An uneasy feeling started creeping up on Sadie. She wondered if she had somehow unintentionally offended Victoria...

"Hand it over!" Victoria finally took the documents without so much as looking at Sadie and briskly headed towards Mr. Clemens' office.

Feeling somewhat deflated, Sadie was about to return to her post when a familiar voice called out. "Hey, isn't that Sadie? I was wondering why I hadn't seen you today. You've been transferred, huh?"
