After swiping my card and entering the
building, my colleagues were indeed in chaos.
“Have you contacted Mr. Pete? The partners
are already here.”
“No, I called, no answer, Little Zhao went to,
his house to look for him.”
“What about Pete’s team? The partners are
here, who can step up?”
Pete’s team members blushed and
stammered.
“Uh, usually the boss is in charge of planning,
we just execute his instructions, we can’t
present to the partners.”
“”
Although Pete was rich, he graduated from a
top university, his professional skills were
excellent.
He usually liked to do everything himself, so
his team didn’t need to think for themselves,
they just followed his lead.
Now, no one could fill in, they were all
annoyed.
“If only we had learned more from the boss,
we could have stepped up in a crucial
moment.”
“What to do, this project is going to fail, the
boss has the headquarters backing him, we’re
<
all doomed.”
“The partners have been waiting for fifteen
minutes, their boss looks unhappy, and our
CEO’s face is about to turn black.”
Looking at the chaotic office, I interrupted
them.
“I’ve researched their company and made a
presentation. I’ll handle the meeting.”
The anxious colleagues fell silent, looking at
me incredulously.
“Uh, she’s not from our project team, can she
do it?”
“She’s quite capable. She’s been wanting to
join this project, I heard she has prepared a
mountain of materials, she should be fine.”
“We don’t have any other options. Let’s give
her a try?”
The people who usually only followed Chioe’s
orders and helped her monitor me now
obsequiously ushered me into the meeting
<
I knocked on the door and entered the
meeting room.
The CEO, Mr. Ray, looked surprised, and the
lead partner frowned slightly.
I smiled slightly and introduced myself.
“My name is Sally, I’m also in charge of
planning for this project with Mr. Pete.
“Mr. Pete is suddenly unwell, so I will present
our plan and show our sincerity.‘

After that, I connected my laptop and opened
my PowerPoint presentation.
