Chapter 23 The Future Lady Boss Of Guggenheim Corporation

When Jenny Lenig looked up, she put on a happy and shy smile as she got out of Zayn Guggenheim’s office and returned to her own office. As soon as she walked out, an employee welcomed her and said, "Jenny, you look great today. something good must’ve happened, huh? Share it with us so we can all be happy for you too!" Since Jenny’s return, everyone could tell that Zayn treated her differently from others, so there were rumors inside the company that Jenny Lenig would become the future lady boss of the Guggenheim Corporation. The usually unapproachable Zayn Guggenheim only looked like a normal person when he was with Jenny, so it was no wonder others had this thought. "No, don't talk nonsense!" Even though Jenny said this, she could not conceal the smugness in her eyes. She would definitely become the lady boss of the Guggenheim Corporation one day! "Tsk tsk...look at you blushing! Did President Guggenheim..." A group of people coaxed her and Jenny’s face was spewing with joy. "Okay...hurry up and go back to work." Jenny’s attitude was undoubtedly admitting that she was the future Mrs. Guggenheim. This news spread like wildfire. Soon, this gossip was rampant throughout the business circle. When Lindsey Juhl heard of this news, her feelings were complex, but in the end, she just laughed it off. Back then when Lindsey and Zayn got married, it was secretly arranged by the Juhls, so not many knew about her being the rightful Mrs. Guggenheim. There was a series of events that occurred in the business circle during this period of time. After they just heard that the Guggenheim Corporation had a future lady boss, the next heavyweight news created a commotion in Lindsey’s company. The company had just transferred a new CFO from abroad. Once he returned to the country, he had already acquired Lee & Co., which was booming at this time. This was an indescribable big deal. Everyone at the office was discussing it. Lydia walked over with a delighted face and announced, "Gather around, everyone! I have some good news! Lee & Co. was successfully acquired by our company. Our boss has asked me to allocate their previous clients to the consulting department. This is a good opportunity for us to prove ourselves!" After hearing this, everyone cheered. Due to Denarius Corporation’s involvement during this period, a lot of them were also somewhat affected. Although the impact on them was not as great as it was on Lindsey, many of them were still bothered by it. Now that there was a sudden supply of clients, they were all elated. For Lindsey, this was also considered good news. "Lydia, are you sure these are all for me?" Lindsey casually glanced at the client list and was pleasantly surprised. She had previously analyzed most of the clients on this list and they were all top-tiered. "Yes, this is personally assigned by our newly appointed CFO." Lydia did not know why, but she just did what she was told by the bosses. "Is there a problem?" "No, no, no. Thanks, Lydia!" Lindsey was ecstatic and thanked Lydia repeatedly. There were several clients on this list that were previously snatched away by Jenny, so did that mean there was still hope for her? Lindsey was overjoyed and started working on this immediately, not thinking much about the newly appointed CFO. Since she had already taken on the task, she might be able to bring up her performance in the last two days of the month. Lindsey was busy running around, and within one day she had already closed three clients, which was a pleasant surprise. When she sent off the last client, Lindsey was so happy that she almost jumped with joy. "Yay! I’ve reached my target!" She knew that her hard work would eventually pay off. She did not believe she would continue to be in misery. After reaching her target, Lindsey bought a lot of groceries home, intending to cook herself a nice meal as a reward. The news of the future Mrs. Guggenheim was just released today, so Lindsey thought that Zayn would go on a date with Jenny and was delighted to get the house to herself. However, after she finished cooking, she went into the kitchen to get a set of cutleries. When she came out again, the dining table had two extra unexpected guests. They were none other than Zayn Guggenheim and Jenny Lenig. "Wow, it smells good! Ms. Juhl, you have some skills. You won’t mind that I came uninvited, right?" Jenny carried an innocent-looking fake smile and spoke in an exaggerated manner that made Lindsey sick. Lindsey's face turned in an instant! What did she mean? She wanted to stay for dinner? "I mind. The door is that way. Please close it on your way out." Lindsey was impudent and refused Jenny’s self-invitation. Jenny's face turned green because Lindsey was too direct and embarrassed her in front of Zayn. "Zayn..." Jenny turned to look at the silent Zayn and felt so aggrieved that she wanted to cry. At this moment, Zayn's attention was fixated on Lindsey's angry little face. In their two years of marriage, this was the first time he saw Lindsey diss someone out of anger. Compared to her previous submissive self, her current attitude was more vivacious. However, Zayn suddenly recalled her indifference towards him earlier and felt the urge to burst her bubble! "Go and fetch two more sets of cutleries," ordered Zayn to a maid nearby. His meaning was clear. "Sorry, but I didn't prepare any for the two of you." Lindsey was mad that Zayn disregarded her. It would be fine if it was just him alone, but why should Jenny also stay for dinner? Zayn gave Lindsey a look. His tone was light but his message was deep as he said, "Lindsey Juhl, do you need me to tell you what this place is?" “You...” Lindsey choked and was infuriated. This was the Guggenheim mansion, Zayn's territory, so he had the power. Lindsey let out a deep breath, but she still could not hold back her anger and exploded, “I am the rightful Mrs. Guggenheim and the matriarch of this house!” After her bout of anger, there was silence all around. Jenny's grip loosened and her fork fell on the table with a loud clang. Only then did Lindsey come to her senses. What was she doing? She knew that Jenny was the wife that Zayn had always wanted, so she was just making a fool of herself with the shameless words she just said. Sure enough, Zayn was looking at Lindsey with a seeming smile on his face. His eyes were also unkind. Lindsey involuntarily entered a staring contest with Zayn and forced herself to look him in the eye, unwilling to lose this battle. At this moment, Jenny felt very awkward as she was ignored by both Zayn and Lindsey. Her left hand clutched the plate and it took all her strength to refrain from throwing it towards Lindsey’s face. Jenny held back her emotions and said in a sad and soft voice, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have come." After she said that, she turned around and ran out. It turned out that bullying others was so interesting. The dining hall once again fell into silence. Without the eyesore third party, Lindsey lost the strength to continue the fight. She just mockingly said to Zayn, "Why aren’t you going after her?" Lindsey then pretended to be calm as she sat down and picked up her fork. However, the person in front of her still did not leave and she could still feel his piercing glare on her. This made Lindsey so anxious that she did not know whether she should spit out her food or swallow it. In the end, she could not take it any longer and got up. "Zayn Guggenheim, what the hell do you want?"
