Chapter 47
Without answering Austin's question, Hendrix looked at me and said, "Have a look at these documents.
If you have any questions, please look for Evan."
I retrieved the materials and didn't say much, secretly bearing the same worries as Austin. After a
moment, I replied to him, "Mr. Roberts, I have always been responsible in the construction field.
However, Advancer Tech is an electronic technology company, and I haven't dealt with the company's
auditing before. These tasks have always been handled by Evan. I think you should let him continue to
work on them."
Hendrix stared at me, his gaze solemn as he frowned and said, "Director Reid, do you understand what
your duty as a director is?"
I was stunned. I looked at him and nodded. "I know, but..."
"There's no 'but's. Since you're the director and also a shareholder of the company, you have the right Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
to familiarize yourself with everything regarding the company's affairs."
After that, he turned towards Austin and began to assign him tasks.
I took the documents knowing that I couldn't turn it down. Moreover, the workload this time was quite
heavy.
When I got back to my office, I called Kelsey and asked her to arrange my schedule. There was a need
to carefully observe Advancer Tech for a period of time since things would get busy in a few days.
As for the company's auditing, I went to the finance department and look into it, only to be shocked as
the auditing had already begun.
The person in charge of the finance department, Eugene Lance, handed all the accounts to me and
said, "Miss Reid, please take a look. All of our company's accounts are right here. This year's auditing
needs to include the ones from Mr. Shelley's side too, so the workload will be relatively large. Mr.
Roberts plans to hand this year's auditing to Brilliant Audit to be processed."
I looked through the account book, nodded, and sighed, "Okay, I understand. I'll read through it first. By
the way, please help me sort out Alford Audit's auditing data from the previous years."
"Alright."
After that, I took the documents and returned to the office. Kelsey was busy. When she came in and
saw me struggling in a stack of account books, she reported, "Miss Reid, Alford Audit's president, Troy
Lawson, phoned just now and said that he wants to meet you."
Money was on the line. If Alford Audit and Roberts Group stopped cooperating, they would lose millions
of dollars. It was no wonder that he was in such a hurry to meet me. However, since Hendrix was
unwilling to cooperate with him, there could be some unknown conflicts between them. Thus, I couldn't
continue to deal with Troy.
I looked at Kelsey and answered, "Just say that I don't have time to meet him. Also, help me contact
Brilliant Audit's director, I want to meet him. While you're at that, send me the companies that Brilliant
Audit had worked with in recent years."
"Will do." As soon as Kelsey left, I resumed burying myself in a pile of work and numbers.
I worked until late afternoon. After sitting for a long time, my back was sore and I was exhausted. I got
up and went out of the office, only to see that there was no one in the office area.
I made a cup of coffee and went back to the office to order some delivery. It seemed that I would need
to stay in the company and continue to work overtime that night.
"Are you not preparing to leave?" An unexpected voice came from the door. I was surprised and looked
up to see Josiah.
I couldn't help but laugh, "Aren't you still here too?"
With a faint smile, he handed me the lunch box in his hand and said, "This is the soup Albert cooked.
Take it, it's good for your health."
I was stunned for a moment, then looked at him and smiled. "Thank you."
There was nothing between the two of us anyway, so I thought that he would leave as soon as he gave
me the soup. However, I didn't expect him to continue standing there. I couldn't find small talk, so I
simply kept silent.
"Did Hendrix make you manage the company's auditing this year?" He found a seat and sat down
before asking.
