My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 550

She was stunned for a moment and replied in surprise, "A secretary? Doesn't Mr. Roberts already have Evan? Plus, I don't think Mr. Roberts has ever hired a female secretary before."

I took a sip of water as my head buzzed. "The company will expand after the New Year, and Evan can't manage everything on his own. After all, you've worked in Roberts Group before, so you know his character. It'll be more convenient for you to work with him!"

She was puzzled. "Miss Reid, you're not busy with your work in the Granger Group now, so you can go back to work over at the Roberts Group. Why aren't you doing so?"

"Indeed, I don't need to worry too much about the Granger Group now, but I won't work in the Roberts Group anymore. I have my own plans. Of course, you can refuse if you don't want to!"

Then, she shook her head. "It's not that. I'm working at the Moore Group now. To put it bluntly, my job there can't even compare to being a receptionist. I feel fortunate to be able to return to the Roberts Group as Mr. Roberts's secretary, but Miss Reid, does this mean that the Moore Family won't need me to..."

"No need!" I've done everything I was supposed to do, and I've received all the punishments that I deserved.

Since a new year has begun, I should start from scratch.

Upon hearing this, she froze for a moment before she handed me the sleeping pills that she had brought over. Then, she paused and pointed out, "Calvin doesn't know much about the relationship between Mr. Saunders and Mr. Roberts. According to what he said, Mr. Saunders had fallen in love with a girl when he was a teenager and she was Mr. Roberts's cousin. I don't know why that girl jumped off a building and committed suicide as this matter happened a long time ago. No one in the Roberts family even mentioned this. Nevertheless, Mr. Saunders probably hasn't let things go, so he's looking to sabotage Mr. Roberts at work."

I couldn't help but frown and asked, "Sabotage?" It had been more than a decade since the romance first started.

Furthermore, Hendrix had a cousin? Wasn't Uncle Trent childless?

What was going on?

Why did everything seem to get more complicated?

Kelsey agreed with my musings. After a pause, she glanced at me and added, "I have been following up on Chloe recently. Except for Mr. Saunders, she doesn't seem to have contacted anyone else. However, she went to Jarold City some time ago, but I don't know what exactly did she do there."

"She went to Jarold City during the New Year?"

She nodded. "I think she reached out to the Granger family. Irvin once had an assistant called Eugene."

I muttered my assent. Once Minnie finished preparing my meal. I popped a sleeping pill after eating, and I went straight back to my room right after the medication kicked in.

I didn't wake up until early next morning. It seemed that Minnie had been waiting for me to wake up.

When she heard sounds coming from the bedroom, she hurriedly came upstairs and brought me some food. Setting eyes on me, she commented, "It's good that you are awake. Are you hungry? Mr. Roberts called me on the phone just now and he told me that there will be a delay in his return. He knew that you were asleep, so he asked me to wait for you to wake up and have you eat something."
