Chapter 35 - 35 35 Integrating into the Small Community

35: Chapter 35 Integrating into the Small Community 35: Chapter 35 Integrating into the Small Community On this day, James Brown and Sarah Utah had checked two warehouses again, but the warehouses they inspected today were relatively small, so the workload was much less.

They returned to the office before three o’clock, and Sarah began organizing the materials and working on the summary.

James sat beside Sarah to help her, and also to learn some things.

It was likely that Emma Davis had arranged for James to learn from Sarah because she probably wanted James to take over Sarah’s job in the future.

After all, it didn’t seem quite right for a girl like Sarah to inspect warehouses.

After two days of interacting, Sarah had a pretty good impression of James.

At the very least, he had always treated her with respect, never bullied her, nor taken advantage of her.

Of course, the most important thing was that James had once saved her from some hooligans.

So, in just two short days, Sarah had come to trust James greatly.

Even when he sat beside her, she could feel more at ease.

Once the summary was finished and they were the only two left in the logistics department, the two drivers were out, probably chauffeuring some executives, while Andrew Brown and Emily Smith had not returned.

“Finally done,” Sarah leaned back in her chair, stretching her arms, her chest prominently displayed.

Such a movement was quite tempting, especially when a delicate girl like Sarah did it, adding an extra shock factor.

James couldn’t help but take a few more glances.

Sarah noticed James’s gaze and quickly sat up straight, her face turning slightly red.

James immediately smiled and said, “That stretch, it looked quite good.”

Sarah hadn’t expected James to not only look but also comment directly, and blushed, unsure of how to respond.

James chuckled again and said, “I didn’t mean anything by it, just simple appreciation.”

Sarah saw that James’s eyes were very clear and immediately relaxed.

She was indeed of the age to have a boyfriend but because she was pretty, the men who approached her often looked at her with a discomforting gaze, which over time had made her quite wary.

“Mr.

Brown, you were a security guard before, how did you suddenly end up in our company?

Our company wasn’t recruiting,” Sarah queried.

Sarah was younger than James, so out of politeness, she still called him “Mr.

Brown.” Girls tend to be a bit curious, and Sarah was quite intrigued about how James came to work at JYPP Region.

James smiled lightly and said, “I was arranged by Mr.

Lopez.

I had helped him out before.”

“Oh…” Sarah nodded and said, “If Mr.

Lopez arranged it, then you must be capable.

He’s the least sentimental person.

All over the company, I’ve never seen him put any relatives into positions, unlike those at the headquarters, always sending people to our branch office.”

“It looks like you’re somewhat dissatisfied?” James asked with a smile.

Sarah pouted and said, “Of course I’m dissatisfied.

Those people come here, lack ability, do a poor job, and some hardly even show up for work, yet they earn just as much.

It’s not just me; everyone is pretty unhappy.”

James had not expected such complex personnel relations within the company and said, “Can Mr.

Lopez tolerate such things?”

Sarah pursed her lips even more and said, “Mr.

Lopez naturally doesn’t like it, but those are arrangements from above, and he has no choice.

Moreover, I think the company is getting better and more people will want to come to our JYPP Region Branch Office.”

James widened his eyes and said, “Isn’t that just taking advantage of our company?”

Sarah spoke even more angrily, “Exactly.

That’s why those of us who work hard in the company feel extremely aggrieved.

Why should we work hard, devoted to the company’s development, while they do nothing and reap the benefits?”

“That’s really not a good thing, I’m afraid those of us who work earnestly will feel increasingly discontented,” James classified himself among the hardworking ones, though it seemed he hadn’t done any substantial work yet and whether he would be able to in the future was unclear.

“Yes, if it weren’t for Mr.

Lopez here, nobody would be willing to work so hard.”

James also had a righteously indignant look, saying, “Right, if Mr.

Lopez weren’t here, I wouldn’t work hard either.” But unlike Sarah, who felt it deeply, he was just going along with her.

“So tired, huh, you two got back pretty quick,” Emily Smith returned just as they were talking and started to complain as soon as she entered.

“Ms.

Smith,” James and Sarah greeted together.

Emily Smith came to their desks, smiling at the pair, “Hehe, working as a male-female team seems less tiring, unlike me working alone, so boring.

Little Sarah, how about next time letting Little James accompany Ms.

Smith?”

Sarah’s face flushed red instantly, and she stammered, “Ms.

Smith, you… don’t joke around, there’s nothing between us.”

Emily Smith chuckled, “Look at you, such a grown girl, and you blush at a joke.

But honestly, Little James is about your age, and I think you two are quite a match.

It wouldn’t be bad if you dated.”
