Paul glanced at Liliana and said, “Liliana, don’t think too much. Wilfred is only pointing to the fact. As long as your employer forgives you, you can still stay in the company.”
Liliana was not in the good mood. She replied dispiritedly, “Paul, it is true that I have done something wrong and there is no need to find excuses. I will be alright. You can go to sleep now. I want to spend some alone time.”
Paul and Eden looked at each other.
“We can send you back. You don’t have to spend time alone. The next day will soon come after you lie down the bed and close your eyes.”
Liliana growled a bit angrily, “Just leave. Why can’t I just spend some time alone?”
Paul and Eden didn’t know what to do.
“Liliana, don’t behave in this way. We don’t mean anything. We just don’t want you…”
Before they finished the sentence, Liliana suddenly ran away.
Paul and Eden chased her behind after realizing what happened.
“Liliana, don’t run away. You can talk with us.”
Liliana ran faster when they were chasing behind her. They were still behind when she got in the elevator. However, they didn’t make it until she closed the door.
“Eden, what are we going to do?” Paul asked.
“Are you dumb? Let’s try the stairs.”
They didn’t think too much and ran towards the stairs. However, when they arrived at the ground floor, Lilianna was already gone.
“Shit.” Paul couldn’t help cursing.
Paul raised up the hand to sweep the sweets on his forehead. He breathed deeply for some time and said, “Let’s go. I suppose she doesn’t want us to find out where she is.”
“But she…”
“Don’t worry. She is good at fighting. Rogues and drunk men can’t do anything with her.”
“I am just afraid that she will take this thing too hard. You also know her feeling towards Wilfred. He scolded her seriously. I am afraid she will do something irrational because of bad mood.”
“Don’t worry. She knows the right thing to do and she won’t do silly things even her she is heartbroken.”
In the end, they could only return to the company’s dormitory.
Wilfred reached out is hand and greeted steadily, “Hello, I am Ophelia’s friend. I have heard she had a car accident and is here to visit her.”
Zachariah looked at him alertly and didn’t reach out his hand. He asked, “We haven’t told any relative or friend that Ophelia has an accident. How did you find out?”
Wilfred replied calmly, “Well, I am a friend of Ophelia and also a cooperating partner. One of my subordinates came to discuss with her about the content of our sighing and they had an appointment in a café. However, Ophelia had an accident when she was going to arrive and my subordinate had witnessed everything. I searched some information and found she was being sent to this company. That’s why I come here to visit her. I hope you don’t mind.”
Frowning, maybe it was because of Ophelia’s accident that left Zachariah’s no space to think too much, he didn’t show any repulsion to Wilfred’s arrival.
Wilfred pointed at the place next to him and asked, “Do you mind me sitting here?”
“Sit down.”
Wilfred sat down and reached out his hands gently again, “My name is Wilfred. What is yours? I can’t just call you hello.”
Zachariah glanced at him and frowned. He was not getting used to Wilfred’s enthusiasm. However, considering he was Ophelia’s so-called friend, he didn’t say anything more.
“My name is Zachariah, Zachariah Chambers.”
A flicker of surprise passed over Wilfred’s eyes. He asked, “Is Chambers your surname? Are you the only heir of the Chambers Group?”
