Chapter 261: Heading to Las Vegas_3
"Director David, I may not be familiar with the work at the Tax Bureau, but the Land Management Bureau where I work also belongs to a national institution. In some ways, the nature of our work is the same. I just need one month, no, half a month to become familiar with the overall operation process of the Tax Bureau. Moreover, I am very good at..."
Kepel, afraid that David would not favor her, tried her best to explain her strengths and expertise. However, before she could finish, David interrupted her directly, saying, "Alright, Kepel, you've passed the interview. Congratulations on becoming a member of our Western Suburb Branch!"
She was recommended by Nisen, and at the moment, her resume was also quite outstanding; naturally, he had nothing further to fuss about.
Kepel was stunned.
She originally thought that even with the connection of her cousin Nisen, passing David's interview wouldn't be so easy. But to her surprise, it was not just easy—it was effortless.
Once she came to her senses, she was ecstatic and immediately said, "Director David, thank you so much for choosing me. I will do my utmost to alleviate your work pressure."
"Mm, do a good job."
David turned his head to look at Nisen and said, "I need to handle some CIA matters in Las Vegas tomorrow. Notify Bucky Simmons to come along, and by the way, book the tickets."
"Understood."
After leaving the office and reaching the hallway, Kepel was still somewhat in disbelief that she had secured the job so easily. She turned to Nisen and said, "Cousin Nisen, how could Director David let me pass so easily?"
"It's quite normal. After all, you know about the Hollywood situation, and he is under a lot of work pressure right now. Besides being my recommendation, your resume is not bad either, so he didn't need to waste any more time."
In fact, there was another thing Nisen didn't explicitly mention: apart from Kepel, there were no other candidates, and Kepel was good in all aspects, so naturally, David had to choose her.
"Is that so... Then thank you so much, cousin Nisen."
Kepel quickly turned around to express her gratitude, fully aware that without the connection between her cousin and Director David, she wouldn't have even had the chance to stand in front of David, let alone secure the job.
"Not at all, we are all family after all. In that case..."
Nisen then told Kepel about some other matters, before he finally went back to his own office to arrange the trip to Las Vegas for the next day.
The work at the Western Suburbs Branch was still busy today. David stayed in his office dealing with various matters until five o'clock when he called in Keanu, Lewis, and some other senior executives.
Since he was going to Las Vegas tomorrow, he instructed them to handle the bureau's affairs temporarily. Besides, the tax audit of Hollywood had entered the payment collection stage, so everything should operate normally without any troubles, and it was not necessary for him to be personally present to oversee everything.
"Don't worry, Director, we will handle these subsequent matters."
Keanu and the others also assured him.
After getting off work and going home, he saw Maggie busily working in the kitchen. Today she made Kung Pao chicken, sweet and sour pork fillet, a dish with tofu, plus a bowl of fish soup.
It seemed that the dozen signature dishes she mentioned yesterday were not just boasting.
After a hearty meal, David said to her, "Tomorrow, I have to make a trip to Las Vegas. If you need anything, just tell the people outside." Your adventure continues at My Virtual Library Empire
"Going to Las Vegas? For what?"
Maggie leaned over the table with her hands, her voluptuous chest displayed on the tabletop like the dishes before her, her expression one of curious anticipation.
"Don't ask questions you shouldn't.";
"Alright..."
Maggie stood up and silently began clearing away the dishes and cutlery.
The next morning, David and his group arrived at Long Beach International Airport and boarded the flight to Las Vegas.
Less than 400 kilometers apart, the flight landed at Las Vegas International Airport around nine o'clock.
"Las Vegas, I'm back!"
Having just exited the aircraft, Nisen couldn't help but express his familiarity with the environment.
Then the four of them went to the airport lobby, where they quickly found Jerome waiting for them. He approached, saying, "You've had a tough journey, Director David, Chiefs."
"Have you confirmed the target's activity times and general location?"
"Yes, but it's still early right now.";
"Let me know when it's time. And the car?"
"Here, parked outside, a black Toyota Prado, license plate number XXXX."
Bucky took the keys, and the group of four exited the airport. Following Jerome's instructions to the license plate number provided, they quickly found the car parked across the street. They all got in the vehicle and headed towards the central district.
About twenty minutes later, they arrived at the Bellagio Hotel, took the elevator straight to the 10th floor, and arrived at room 1012.
There, two suited bodyguards were already standing guard by the door.
"Brothers, our Director and Mr. Louson have an appointment; please let them know we are here.";
Recognizing David, one guard immediately went inside to inform someone. After about 30 seconds, he came out and said, "You can go in now, Director David.";
David didn't waste any time and strode into the room. Immediately, a hearty voice greeted him, "Director David, welcome back to Las Vegas."
As David turned around, he saw Louson straightening his suit as he walked out from the restroom, and he replied, "Mr. Louson, it's been two months since our last meeting. I've missed you indeed."
