Chapter 650
650 Taking Charge
There was a high chance that the company might undergo a complete change. It was difficult to guess
if the new CEO would suddenly fire them.
Every department was discussing the situation as many people had never seen Wynter before.
The media were terrified of the Quinnells and Dalton. Without Dalton’s approval, no one dared to post.
photos of Wynter on the internet.
There was a saying that a bathroom was the easiest place to hear about gossip. That was indeed the
case.
Wynter was relieving herself in the toilet when she overheard the discussion between two employees
as they touched up their make–up.
“Do you think the new CEO knows how to run a business?”
“Who knows? I heard she’s quite young. You understand our company’s situation. We have so many
shareholders in our company, how many of them will be willing to work for her?”
“I doubt any of them will be willing. She just appeared out of the blue. But that has nothing to do with
us. We can always quit if anything happens.”
At that moment, Wynter came out of the stall with a slight smirk. “That’s so interesting. Could you two
fill me in on what’s happening?”
The two women looked at each other as their faces fell. One worked in the human resources
department while the other was in the secretarial department.
“Which department are you from? Why did you just stay in there without making a sound?” Both of
them looked guilty yet arrogant.
“Are you new?” the one working in the human resource department asked.
Wynter said calmly, “Yes. I’m new.”
Then, she walked toward them with a soft smile and said, “I just came and heard that they’re changing
CEOs. I’m afraid I’ll get fired for not understanding the rules.
“I was wondering if you two could give me a brief explanation of the rules here.”
The two girls sensed she was being honest and signaled for her to come closer.
Wynter immediately inched closer.
Gossiping about the higher–ups was taboo, but Wynter had already overheard their conversation. To
play it safe, they might as well turn her into a partner in crime.
“Don’t tell anyone what we’re about to say. There’s nothing in particular for you to pay attention to, but
you must choose your side carefully.

“Although the previous CEO wasn’t favored by Mr. Quinnell Senior, he has several supporters within
the company. You should be careful.”
The two girls sounded sincere as they continued, “In the workplace, certain things should be handled
delicately. While helping the senior staff is alright, don’t stand out too much.
“But at the same time, don’t bury yourself too much. Just be mediocre and learn to read the
management’s expressions.”
Wynter seemed to be learning diligently as she even recorded everything the girls said into her phone.
The two girls had never been so respected before. They felt happy when they noticed Wynter’s
attitude.
“We’ve told you a lot of things today. It’s also quite late now. We should go back to our posts. You can
use
this time to process everything we’ve said.”
Wynter answered, “Alright.”
Although she was smiling, there was an underlying wickedness in her smile.
The woman working in the human resource department was friendly. “Oh, right. Which department are
you from? Remember to send me your details. Do you need me to bring you to your department?”
The two women were still concerned about her as they left the bathroom.
Wynter smiled faintly when she saw Alexis in the distance. “It’s alright. Someone is here to bring me
up.”
“You’re an employee. How can someone come down to bring you up?” The women covered their
mouths
with a smile.
Suddenly, they noticed Alexis walking over with a few bodyguards behind him.
Alexis was dressed in a suit and looked slightly emotional and worried. He looked nothing like he did on
usual days.
“Ms. Quinnell, the shareholders have arrived. Shall we head up now?”
The two women immediately froze as their eyes widened in shock. Ms. Quinnell?
Then, they stood there and watched their new CEO smile at them and said, “I’ve learned a lot about the
workplace environment. Thanks a lot.”
The two women were dumbfounded.
