Married to the Billionaire by Chance

Chapter 44 Got Brushed Off

Upon hearing Robin's praise, Allyson felt happy but also developed some apprehension towards Grace, the newcomer.

This woman, isn't she just a decorative vase in the administrative department? Surprisingly, she even knows about XR technology. You should know that this is her first planning case since joining the department.

Before this, no one had taught her.

During the last meeting, Robin casually mentioned a single-player cultivation game and asked everyone to try making a plan to see if it was necessary to develop it.

Because their company used to develop console games, but the results were not satisfactory, gradually console games started to be phased out from the company's projects.

Last year, there was a domestic console game that gained popularity. This year, it exploded in popularity, which made the company eager to take action.

Allyson tried to please Robin by constantly asking people to work on this plan, but unfortunately, none of them were successful. Allyson was almost giving up.

The result was that Grace made it and, looking at Robin's reaction, he was still very satisfied with this planning proposal.

Robin went from being careless before to carefully reading the entire planning proposal word by word now.

Finally, he said to Allyson, "Well written, but Aiyana, you still need to work harder and write a detailed plan for the gameplay, preferably two versions. One version should be for XR technology, and the second version can be considered as a backup."

"These two versions should not differ too much in terms of gameplay and technology, so that when it comes to switching to VR, we can save time and costs to the maximum extent."

Allyson nodded, "I understand, Robin. Actually, this planning proposal is not solely my achievement. It also owes a lot to the cooperation of some colleagues in the department."

"Anyway, you have shown great leadership. Alright, you can go now and submit those two proposals as soon as possible."

"Okay."

***

After Grace finished the planning proposal, she didn't have much to do, so she flipped through some product information about the company.

It is said that this department will be divided into groups, but it is not known which group she will be assigned to. Grace also feels that it is too early to think about these things at this time. The most crucial thing now is to stay.

Not for anything else, just for that raise and learning new things.

There are still many things to learn in operating this area.

She caught a glimpse of Allyson coming back, but Allyson didn't come to see her. Instead, she went back to her own office.

Allyson planned to leave Grace hanging for a few days and then assign her tasks.

On Oscar's side, Doris asked him to go and ask Grace's husband as soon as she woke up in the morning. It seemed like she really wanted Oscar and Jovanny to meet.

But only Doris herself knew it clearly, between women, there would always be various inexplicable sense of competition.

Grace was new, and her husband working in the same company as her boyfriend naturally piqued her strong interest.

Who doesn't want to excel in every aspect compared to others?

After Oscar arrived at the finance department, he looked around and found the head of the cashier group. Pretending to casually ask about reimbursement, he asked, "Do you have someone named Jovanny in your department?"

The team leader paused and looked at Oscar in confusion, "No, why are you asking this?"

"Oh, the boyfriend of a friend of mine said he came to our company to work as a finance officer, so he asked me to inquire."

The team leader shook his head and said, "There is no one named Jovanny. Are you asking about our company's CEO?"

When Oscar heard these words, it felt like a stone had fallen out of nowhere, smashing his heart to the bottom of the valley. "Isn't our CEO called Jules?"

The team leader couldn't help but burst into laughter and gave him a disdainful look, "That's his French name, you must know what our CEO is called, right?"

Oscar: "..."

The team leader added, "But I haven't heard that our CEO has a girlfriend. Are you sure you didn't remember it wrong?"

"Maybe, she said she had just started working a few days ago."

"That's it. Yesterday, after the interview, a batch of applicants were just rejected. It's also possible that someone passed the written test and thought they could join the company. Now there are so many people with the same name, maybe your friend's boyfriend is one of them."

Oscar patted his heart and said, "That's good, maybe it's like that. I'll ask again later."

After he returned to his workstation, he reported to Doris about the information he had obtained.

But Doris didn't see anything else, she only saw that the interview was rejected. When she heard this news, Doris started to feel sorry for Grace.

She came to Grace's side without making a sound and patted her shoulder.

Grace, who was engrossed in reading the materials, was startled by her, "It's you, you scared me."

Doris lay on Grace's desk, looking at her sympathetically.

This look puzzled Grace, she thought she was going to be fired and couldn't help but feel nervous. "What's wrong?"

"Grace, my boyfriend just went to their finance department,"

Grace breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that something had happened. "And then? Did you see... that someone?"

Doris shook her head regretfully and said, "Oscar said your husband was rejected in the interview yesterday. There is no such person in the finance department. Don't be sad when you hear this."

Grace paused for a moment and asked, "Was I rejected?"

Doris nodded and patted Grace's shoulder as a gesture of reassurance. "Their company is quite strict, especially in departments like finance. Your husband passed the written test, but unfortunately, he didn't pass the interview."

Doris spoke in great detail, and her admiration for her boyfriend grew even stronger. She could even find information about such matters.

Grace suddenly became worried that Jovanny had arrived. He had studied abroad, so how could he possibly have not passed?

He had her send it to the company this morning. He probably didn't want to tell her after all, as it's not a respectable matter and it concerns a man's dignity.

"No worries, Oscar knows a lot of people. He can introduce your husband to a job."

Grace forced a smile and nodded, saying, "Thank you."

"What's the fuss? We were colleagues after all."

Grace absentmindedly finished half a day of work and then went to S&C after work. She parked her electric bike on the side of the road and was about to send a message to Jovanny.

The result was that I saw him outside the company, he didn't go in, he just stood outside and looked at his phone.

Jovanny had just finished meeting with a client and came to the entrance from the parking lot. He calculated that it was about time for Grace to arrive.

Just didn't expect this move, which made Grace misunderstand him even more.

Grace felt that he had been fired, but he didn't tell her because of his pride, and pretended that he was still working at S&C.

Grace suddenly felt sorry for him.

She planned to pretend not to know and send him messages as before.

After receiving the message, Jovanny immediately walked towards Grace.

Grace stared at him deeply, observing his well-dressed appearance, and was surprised to find that he, like most people, had an indescribable pressure.

She suddenly thought of the day when Brenden laid hands on him. Could it be because Jovanny rejected Brenden's harassment, so he deliberately pushed him down?

Jovanny saw various changes of emotions in her eyes, although he didn't know what she was thinking, he always felt a chill down his spine.

Grace sighed and walked up to him, extending her hand and embracing him.

Jovanny was completely stunned.
