Chapter 200 Could That Even Be Considered a Strength

Josh instinctively averted his gaze. In front of such a man, he felt self-abased as if the man was an unattainable celestial being.

Orlando glanced casually and didn't pay much attention to him. Guided by the president of Valenworth Company, he entered the lobby.

Due to the more than two billion dollars involved in the construction in Prodale County, Valenworth Company attached great importance to it.

Many companies had submitted proposals to the Fletcher Group, but last night, the Fletcher Group suddenly chose their proposal and was willing to discuss it with them in detail.

Today, Orlando came over in person. The president of Valenworth Company even wondered if it was because his company was currently responsible for the construction of Orlando's Royal Green that they had this opportunity.

Thinking of this, the president felt that he should be even more polite to Perry in the future. After all, it was because she chose Valenworth Company that they had this opportunity.

He showed Orlando around his company and finally stopped in the corridor on the middle floor. The next step was to negotiate between the two parties.

Just as Orlando was about to step into the conference room, he heard a junior manager nearby scolding someone. It happened to be the man who picked up Penny.

Today was Saturday, and certain positions in Valenworth Company followed a 996 work schedule, which meant that these employees needed to work from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., six days a week.

"What's wrong with you, Josh? How could you make such a mistake with this data? Find some time to read more and improve yourself. You're the only one who graduated from a third-rate college in our department, while the others all graduated from the first-class universities. Don't blame me for singling you out."

Josh cursed the manager in his heart, who had serious educational background discrimination. Since his manager knew his educational background, his manager mocked him almost every day.

Because of this, though he had several opportunities for promotion, they were given to others by his manager.

If it weren't for the generous year-end bonus at Valenworth Company, he'd have changed his job long ago.

Orlando stood nearby, watching them.

The man looked about 5.8 feet tall and probably just started his career a few years ago. He was only an ordinary employee. If there were any strengths about him, it'd be that his skin was slightly fairer than other men, but that was about it. Could that even be considered a strength?

The president of Valenworth Company felt somewhat embarrassed and quickly winked at the junior manager who was scolding Josh.

Seeing the group of senior executives, the manager pushed Josh back into the department in fear.

The president of Valenworth Company hurriedly made up for it.

"Mr. Fletcher, haha, it's just an ordinary reprimand. Valenworth Company is usually strict with its employees."

Orlando remained silent and stepped into the conference room.

For the next hour, the president of Valenworth Company and several senior executives engaged in enthusiastic discussions about the upcoming construction project, while the employees of the Fletcher Group sitting next to Orlando meticulously verified the information with them.

However, anyone could tell that Orlando seemed to have his mind elsewhere.

Orlando had his hands crossed in front of his waist, giving off a cold and indifferent vibe.

But Zane, who was closest to him, noticed that Orlando seemed to be in a daze.

After a long time, in the middle of the meeting, Orlando's phone rang. He gestured to the senior executives to continue. Then he pushed the door open and went to the corridor to answer the call.

It was Randy calling. He was talking something trivial.

Orlando only listened to a few words before hanging up.

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

"That idiotic manager is deliberately targeting me. If it weren't for the generous year-end bonus, I'd really want to quit."

"It's ridiculous that there's still educational background discrimination in this day and age."

It was Josh who was speaking. Another male employee was standing in front of him, presumably an ordinary employee like Josh.

For some unknown reason, Orlando walked in.

Josh was venting his frustrations, but when he saw someone entering, he was jarred into silence immediately.

When Josh looked up at the comer, he instantly felt uneasy all over.

Men had their pride. So when the two men, who were just chatting, saw a clearly dominant figure entering their place, they suddenly began to flag.
