Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 200 But is this considered an advantage?

Lucas instinctively lowered his gaze, feeling unable to lift his head in front of this person.

It was as if the other party was an unattainable deity in the sky.

Raymond cast a casual glance and didn't pay him much attention. Under the guidance of the president of Cornerstone Construction, he entered the hall.

Regarding the construction in Ridgefield, which involved billions of dollars in investment, Cornerstone Construction attached great importance to it.

Many companies had submitted proposals to the Montague family's company, but last night, the Montague family suddenly selected them and said they wanted to discuss it in detail.

Today, Raymond personally came over, and the president of Cornerstone Construction even thought that it might be because Raymond's Manhattan house was also being constructed by Cornerstone Construction, which created a great opportunity.

Thinking of this, he felt even more obliged to be polite to Selena later, after all, it was because she chose Cornerstone Construction that they got this opportunity.

The president of Cornerstone Construction showed Raymond around for a while, and finally stopped in the middle level corridor, where the negotiations between the two parties would take place.

Just as Raymond was about to step into the meeting room, he heard a subordinate nearby scolding someone, and that someone happened to be the man who picked up Selena.

Today is Saturday, and some positions in Cornerstone Construction work on a 9-9-6 schedule, from 9 am to 9 pm, six days a week.

"What have you done, Lucas, how can you make mistakes even with this data? You should take some time to read more books and improve yourself. Among our department, you are the only one with a college degree, while everyone else has a bachelor's degree. Don't blame me for targeting you."

Lucas cursed his leader in his mind. This person had a severe bias towards education, so once he found out about Lucas' qualification, he mocked him almost every day.

Because of this, Lucas had missed several promotion opportunities that were given to others by the leader.

However, the year-end bonus at Cornerstone Construction was quite generous. If it wasn't for that, Lucas would have found another job a long time ago.

Raymond stood nearby, observing this scene.

The man appeared to be around 5 feet 9 inches tall and probably had only recently entered the workforce. He was just an ordinary employee. If there was any advantage, it would be that his skin was slightly fairer than other men, but that was about it.

But can that be considered an advantage?

The CEO of Cornerstone Construction felt embarrassed and quickly gestured to the small leader who was reprimanding Lucas.

Upon seeing a group of executives, the small leader panicked and pushed Lucas into a side room.

The CEO of Cornerstone Construction hastily tried to make up for the situation.

"Mr. Montague, haha, it's just a normal way of disciplining people. Cornerstone Construction is usually strict with its employees." Raymond didn't say anything and stepped into the meeting room.

In the next hour, the CEO of Cornerstone Construction and several executives talked enthusiastically about the upcoming construction project, while the Montague family's employee, sitting next to Raymond, was going through the information with the other party, one by one.

However, everyone could tell that Raymond, who was sitting on the side, seemed to have his mind elsewhere. Raymond's hands were placed in front of his waist, slightly crossed, giving off a cold and distant demeanor.

But John, who was closest to him, noticed that the CEO seemed to be daydreaming.

After a while, when the meeting reached its midpoint, Raymond's phone rang. He signaled for the executives in front of him to continue while he pushed open the door and went to the corridor to answer the call.

It was Alex calling, and he was talking about some trivial matters.

Raymond only listened to two sentences before he hung up.

As he passed by the tea room, he heard a familiar male voice inside.

"This stupid leader is deliberately targeting me. If it wasn't for the year-end bonus at Cornerstone Construction, I would really consider leaving."

"In this day and age, there's still educational discrimination."

The person speaking was Lucas, and there was another male employee standing in front of him, likely also an ordinary staff member.

Raymond didn't know why, but he walked in.

Lucas was in the midst of his rant and instantly became uncomfortable when he saw someone entering. He shut his mouth.

When he looked up and saw the man who entered, he instantly felt uneasy all over his body.
