Charlotte pressed her lips into a smile, deliberately making things difficult for him, hoping he would give up. “I’m not forcing you. If you want to work with me, you have to start as a junior employee. If you do well, you can gradually be promoted.”
…
Timothy’s eyes darkened, and he clenched his fists.
In his previous life.
He was one of the top ten richest men in Freyburn, a business tycoon managing hundreds of thousands of people under his conglomerate.
And now he was supposed to start from the bottom?
It was simply outrageous.
Charlotte ignored him and walked straight to her own office.
Her secretary, Andy Weiss, hurried over to report, “Good afternoon, Ms. Lindsey. Here is today’s meeting schedule.”
“At 2:00 p.m., you have an appointment with the president of the Jensen Group to discuss a partnership project.”
“At 3:30 p.m. there’s a shareholders‘ meeting.”
“At 4:30 p.m., you’ve scheduled interviews with several influencers…”
“Alright, got it.” Charlotte strolled into her office.
Her assistant Kaitlin immediately went to make her signature coffee and

respectfully brought it into her office.
Timothy stood there in a daze, glancing around.
This was the starting point of his previous life.
It was from here that he set out, step by step, on the entrepreneurial path that would eventually land him on the rich list.
Unfortunately…
The boss had changed to Charlotte.
He had struggled for months, but just couldn’t scrape together the startup capital, and could only watch helplessly as he missed out on a golden opportunity.

“If I have to start from the bottom, so be it. If you can’t endure small setbacks, you’ll ruin your bigger plans. For the sake of my future, I’ll swallow my pride.”
“Besides, once I win Charlotte over, everything here and everything belonging to the Lindsey family will be mine anyway.”
After giving himself a pep talk.
Timothy took a deep breath, adjusted his expression, and walked confidently toward Charlotte’s office.
What does pride matter?
Money is what really counts.
He did have some talent and ability. If he worked hard and steadily, he

could eventually make a name for himself! But that would be a long, winding road–how could that compare to just taking the easy way?
The secretary stopped him, his face serious. “Sir, this is the president’s office. You can’t go in!”
“I’m here to see Charlotte!”
“Do you have an appointment?”
“…” Timothy frowned, glaring coldly at Andy.
Did he ever need an appointment to see Charlotte?
In the past, she had always begged him for a meeting, and only then would he reluctantly agree to see her!
And now he needed an appointment to see her?
“Charlotte and I are friends. We just came into the company together.”
dy, a top graduate from out of town, didn’t know Timothy and just owed procedure. “I’m sorry, please wait a moment. I’ll go in and inform

Timothy curled his lip in annoyance, pointing at his own nose as if to say, ‘Just you wait.‘

Andy ignored him and turned to enter the office.
He waited for a full ten minutes.
Finally, Andy came out again. “Sir, Ms. Lindsey will see you now.”
Timothy took a deep breath and strode into the office.

Inside the office.
The decor was bright and tasteful, with all kinds of office equipment fully equipped.
Charlotte sat in a leather chair, watching a video conference.
Timothy didn’t dare interrupt, so he could only sit on the sofa to the side and wait.
Twenty minutes later.
The video conference ended.
“Lottie…”
“Is there something else?”
Timothy felt a lump in his throat, but forced himself to say, “I’ve thought it over. To show my sincerity, I’m willing
, I’m willing to start from the bottom.”
Charlotte looked up at him in surprise.
