On one side of the room, there was a big French window from which she could see everything below.
There were two small potted plants next to the computer. They were very pleasing to the eye, and could cheer up anyone who saw them.
Seeing that Chloe's eyes were set on the two pots of succulent plants, Derrick smiled gently and said, "Ashley asked me to put them there. She said that you shouldn't have to stare at the computer screen all day long. It's not good for your eyes."
"I know," Chloe replied, casting her gaze on Derrick.
Derrick rubbed his nose and said nothing.
It seemed that the CEO did not like him very much.
Ashley came to know Derrick after she bought the Tang Group. At that time, Derrick was working in this company, but he had a different designation then.
Ashley was introduced to Derrick by accident. They were not very familiar with each other but Ashley thought that he was a capable man, so she promoted him to the position of vice president. After all, she thought Chloe would need someone to help her run the company.
Ashley was not worried that the company would go bankrupt in Chloe's hands. If need be, she had Nolan to back her up.
"Ms. Qiao, I've selected an assistant and a secretary for you. Would you like to meet them?"
Chloe walked past Derrick and sat down at her desk. She thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay."
She was CEO now and she should behave like one.
She agreed that an assistant and a secretary would be necessary for her to do her job well.
Derrick took out his phone and made a call. In less than a minute, someone came knocking on the door.
"Come in."
As soon as Derrick spoke, the door of the office swung open.
A man and a woman came in. Seeing Derrick, the two of them greeted him respectfully.
"Let me introduce you to your new boss, the CEO of the company, Ms. Chloe Qiao. Go ahead and introduce yourselves to her."
Derrick's manner was very gentle and pleasant.
Hearing what Derrick said, Eva and Jeff turned to look at Chloe. They saw
y are you looking at me like that? From now on, you work directly under the CEO. You should listen to her and do as she says. Do you understand?"
Eva was frightened. When her eyes met Chloe's just now, she knew that Chloe was not somebody that was easy to get along with. Now she was worried that her reflex reactions would piss her off.
Eva turned to look at Chloe and found that she was not looking at her. She was looking in the other direction with that cold, blank expression still plastered on her face.
Eva felt a little relieved.
"All right, Miss Qiao. I'll arrange it and announce it right away."
After saying that, Eva stepped out of Chloe's office with Jeff following suit.
After they were gone, Derrick looked at Chloe. He felt that she was not the same person he saw downstairs.
But it was difficult to tell specifically what the difference was between the former Chloe and the Chloe now sitting here.
Perhaps it was just a feeling.
Originally, Derrick planned to notify all departments of a meeting to introduce Chloe as the company's new CEO.
To his surprise, Chloe thought of it herself and beat him to it.
Perhaps Derrick revealed what he was thinking through his eyes. Although Chloe did not pay that much attention to him, she could be quite observant when she wanted to be.
"What is it?" Chloe asked, frowning.
