Chapter 149
He looked better than in the photos. He sat in the sun, pen in his hand, the buttons on his cuffs reflecting the light.
He is gentle and handsome, and yet most would dare not approach him.
“Mr. Lefting, someone from the Wood Group is here,” the secretary reminded.
He raised his head. “You two, sit down.”
Duphine smiled coquettishly. “Mr. Lefting, I have been looking forward to seeing you for a long time. It’s really not easy to see you.”
The voice gave Gale goosebumps. She hurriedly coughed twice, wanting to remind Duphine.
Who knew that Duphine ignored her and walked forward to shake hands with Aurum.
Aurum frowned slightly but shook hands out of courtesy.
Duphine held it and did not want to let go. “Mr. Lefting, we were almost on the same page last time. Today I have prepared the contract signed by Mr. Wood. I just need your signature to confirm it.”
Gale watched, embarrassed for her.
The person who wanted to climb high was clearly her, yet she had the nerve to warn Gale earlier.
“Yeah.” Aurum withdrew his hand without a trace.
Gale could not take it any longer and immediately took out the document. “Mr. Lefting, the contract is here. You can take a look first.”
Aurum glanced at her admiringly, nodded, turned, and sat back in his seat.
Duphine glared at Gale and whispered, “I want you to mind your own business.”
“Ms. Duphine, you represent the image of the Wood Group. Please restrain yourself so as not to leave a bad impression on Mr. Lefting,” Gale replied.
“I‘m the boss. It‘s not your turn to point fingers!” Gale shrugged slightly. Aurum signed and looked up at Gale. “Are you new here? It‘s the first time I’ve seen you.”
“I‘ve been at Wood Group for a month.”
Gale worked so hard to keep it and endured unimaginable hardships. How could she lose her child because of this moment?
There was despair in her heart.
Could it be that God‘s will is so...
Just when she was about to fall to the ground, a pair of hands reached out in time, wrapped around her waist firmly, and hugged her whole body.
“Be careful.” Unfamiliar embrace, unfamiliar voice.
