My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 282

Both of us came out of the elevator when it reached the floor. With his eyebrows cocked, Josiah pointed in a direction and said, "Hendrix's office is at the end of the corridor. You can go alone, I still have other things to do."

I nodded and said, "Alright, thank you!"

"You're welcome." he simply nodded.

Then, Josiah walked off and returned to his office while Minnie and I walked along the corridor together. Minnie looked at me and whispered, "Arianna, the lady at the front desk shouldn't stay in the company."

"I won't be meddling in the company's affairs. It's none of my concern whether she's staying or not. You shouldn't think about this anymore."

We stopped at the front of Hendrix's office. I raised my hand to knock on the door, but no one responded. So, I pushed on the door.

The door wasn't locked, and it was barely closed. So, I opened it only with a slight push.

There was no one in the office. Minnie put the muffins on the table in the guest sitting area,

I looked up and glanced at Andrea, who was dressed in branded clothes. Shifting my gaze back to Hendrix, I said lightly, "I did, but Miss Burton said you were in a meeting."

He frowned immediately when he heard that. He turned to look at Andrea with a darkened face, and asked in a clipped tone, "Who gave you the permission to use my phone?"

Noticing that he was angered, Andrea's face turned pale. "Hendrix, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to answer your call. It rang several times, so I thought it was urgent, and I picked it up. I didn't expect it to be Arianna..."
