"Your father has always been that way. He thrives on compliance. If you just soften your stance a bit, he won't give you a hard time." Sitting in the backseat, Laura was flipping through sdocuments as she spoke. "Besides, you are his precious daughter." Josie hugged sdocuments to her chest, not really agreeing with Laura.
"I may be feeling a little anxious, but I don't want to compromise." Laura glanced at her and chuckled. "Even at this point, you still refuse to compromise. It's impressive how confident you are." "It seems like you know him better than I do." Josie's thoughts were hidden deep within her. "A group of high-ranking members from Olsen Group visited the hospital today. It seemed like they were there to inquire about Mark's condition. What do you think?" Laura paused slightly in the midst of flipping through the documents, feigning indifference. "Oh, it's been the norm these past couple of years. Those ambitious folks have been hoping for Mark's downfall. Dealing with these matters has been particularly troublesfor me." "It must have been hard on you," Josie said with a faint smile.
Laura twirled her pen as she replied, "I'm just the workhorse of your Olsen family, nothing more." Her thoughts, however, drifted back to earlier, when Mark was lying in the hospital bed. Aside from giving her instructions about work matters, he had mentioned one other thing.

We're not aiming for quick success, but it would be good to get to know speople. You've been carrying this burden for so many years, so it's about tyou lighten your load." Laura's expression had remained calm and composed, yet her mind was already calculating. The underlying message was clear - she needed to pave the way for Josie.
At the time, she had forced a smile and nodded.
Josie had never visited Olsen Group's headquarters before. The building was situated not far from the city center, near the coast. Just a bit further ahead was Wavery's convention center, offering great convenience for economic exchanges.
Laura led Josie into the deepest part of the building where there was an elevator exclusively for her use. With a ding, they arrived at the top floor.
As soon as the elevator doors slid open, numerous employees waiting outside to deliver their work reports could be seen.
"Ms. Brandel, the auditor has already arrived for the upcoming financial meeting." "Ms. Brandel, the proposal from yesterday has been revised. Please have a look." "The latest batch of products are on your desk, Ms. Brandel." Laura nodded at each person, taking the documents from their hands and giving them new instructions.
Once she entered the office, there was no respite. She meticuloushet reviewed every document and pointed out issues, which took a good chunk of her day. S Josie was seated on the sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, idly flipping through a magazine on the table, utterly bored.
Of course, the people passing by couldn't help but cast their curious gazes upon her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer aura was too unique; she didn't seem like an ordinary person.
Seeing someone staring at Josie, seemingly lost in thought, Laura chided, "What are you staring at?" "Sorry, Ms. Brandel, I just found this young lady familiar, but I couldn't recall where I've seen her before. I didn't mean to offend." Josie gave a nod, unbothered.
"You've seen her before? She's the heiress of the Olsen family, so where could you have possibly encountered her?" When Laura voluntarily revealed her identity, Josie was somewhat taken aback.
The other party was clearly stunned as well. As if they had seen something taboo, they nodded before hastily leaving the office.
At last, the place quieted down. With a hint of exasperation, Josie said, “Why did you tell him that? You've scared him off." "They were bound to discover your identity sooner or later; I merely brought it up ahead of time." Laura stood up and added, “I have a meeting to attend first. I'll handle l.ne your project later, so please have a seat in the meantime." Josie remained silent.
Clearly, in this skyscraper, Laura was the one who truly held sway.
Bored, she got up and took a look. around, noticing that the room was mostly furnished with antiques, much like the Olsen family's study. She speculated that this must have been Mark's former office.
