This is what they meant by one bad apple spoils the whole barrel.
Following behind Hendrix, I also went into the closet and changed my clothes.
When he saw that I had changed, he was stunned and said with a smile, "I'll go to the company to understand the gravity of the situation. Wait for me at home!"
I smiled lightly, looked up at him, and said, "You go to the company to ask about the situation. I'll go to the hospital to see Rowane. Although I do not understand the company's problems, I can still do whatever I can."
He raised his eyebrows and kissed me on the cheek, "Letting you stay at home is a waste of talent. Should I have you come to the company and be my secretary?"
I snorted, "So I can only be a secretary?"
He laughed and said, "You can be whatever you want!"
I did not bicker with him. I took my bag and car keys and went out of the villa. We said goodbye to each other. Then, Hendrix went to the company while I went to the hospital.
It would take about half an hour to reach the hospital from the villa. When I arrived, I saw Eugene, who was about to enter the hospital.
I called out to her, "Miss Lance!" She was older than me, but I could not think of a suitable form of address for a while and merely shouted.
She did not hear me at first. After calling her several times, she finally turned back. When she saw that it was me, she was slightly startled. She said, a little surprised, "Director Reid!"
When I caught up to her, I smiled and said, "Do not call me Director Reid. I left Roberts Group for a few years already. You can just call me by my name."
She smiled and said, "Old habits die hard!"
I raised my hand and pressed the button of the elevator. I saw that she did not look well, so I paused and said, "Are you here to look for Rowane?"
