Charlie had already made it clear how serious the consequences of gossiping in the company were. It's just that women always loved to gossip, but usually behind people's backs, and dare not be that blatant.
When the female staff saw Madge just now, some of them couldn't help but begin to gossip. They didn't expect to be caught in the act.
When they were apprehensive whether they would be fired, Farr waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I'll let you off this time"
It was not that he was very merciful. He looked in the direction of the office and laughed. If Boss had heard their gossip, Boss would have been in a good mood.
Madge stepped out of the Hogg's Group Building elegantly and got directly into the luxury car waiting on the side of the road.
Along the way, the driver did not even dare to take a deep breath. From time to time, he would peek at the face of the person sitting behind him from the rearview mirror.
Finally, he drove into the Gray family's house and quickly opened the back door. When Madge got out of the car with her bag and disappeared into the villa, the driver let out a long sigh of relief.
When Madge changed her shoes and entered the door, Kim was walking upstairs from the living room. He looked a little pale, as if he was going back to his room to rest.
"Madge, you are back!"
When Madge saw her father, she immediately stepped forward and asked, "Dad, do you already know that Charlie is going to quit his position as the CEO of the Hogg's Group?"
"Yes." Kim nodded and answered honestly, "The last time I went to the Hogg family, I heard it."
"Then why didn't you tell me?" Madge said in a hurry.
Kim's wife, Linda, who had followed Kim out of the living room, frowned and scolded her daughter with displeasure, "Madge, why are you talking to your father like this? Didn't you see that your father hasn't been feeling well for the past two days? Why are you so ignorant!"
When Madge heard this, she also realized that there was something wrong with her tone. She quickly lowered her head and said, "Dad, I'm sorry."
Kim smiled and thought that how can he make a fuss about it.
Moreover, his daughter had been very sensible and obedient since she was a child and grew up to be very good, always let him feel proud. She just sounded a little too much, also because it's about Charlie, he can understand that.
Kim sighed and said sincerely, "Madge, whether I tell you early or late, the result is the same!"
He was not feeling well these two days, did not go out much, and didn't go to the company, his schedule was pushed back as much as possible, and the rest was left to his secretary to handle. He originally also arranged for the secretary to attend Hogg's Group cooperation meeting today, but did not expect Madge to volunteer.
Kim didn't stop Madge after he knew it.
He knew that his daughter wanted to take this opportunity to see Charlie, but he had already seen through it. No matter how much his daughter did, she couldn't change anything, especially in terms of a relationship.
Madge didn't say anything else. She just stepped forward and helped her father up the stairs.
Kim also hoped that his daughter could comprehend it on her own, so he didn't say anything more. And it was true that he was not feeling well, so he went straight back to his bedroom to lie down.
Recently her husband's condition was not good, and Linda personally cooked the pigeon soup. When she got everything done, she saw a servant standing at the door of Madge's bedroom with trepidation, not daring to go in easily.
When Linda got closer, she heard a splashing sound coming from inside. It was as if something had been brushed to the ground.
She quickly turned around and looked at the bedroom on the other side. After confirming that her husband was not disturbed, she stepped forward and unlocked the door.
The room was in a mess. The mirror on the European- style solid wood dressing table had cracked, and the bottles and jars originally placed on it were all over the floor at this time, many glass bottles had broken, and the essence flowed all over the place.
Linda was not too surprised when she saw this. She quickly closed the door behind her.
Then, she frowned and instructed the servant who followed her in, "Clean up quickly!"
"Yes, Madam!" The servant answered hurriedly.
When passing by Madge, she was very careful. She didn't dare to raise her head throughout the whole process and obediently went to clean up the mess.
Although the servant did not know skincare brands, he knew that these bottles were very expensive. Some small bottles of essential oils were even worth a month's salary of her. Now they were spilling all over the floor. No matter how rich Miss Gray was, it's too wasteful!
Of course, she only dared to mutter these words in her heart and did not dare to express them.
Madge didn't seem to have it enough. She grabbed a box of sleeping masks that she had ordered from the United States just a while ago and wanted to smash it into the mirror.
Linda saw this and went forward to stop Madge. "That's enough. Be careful not to wake your father up!"
Madge stopped raising her hands. In the end, she did not smash it, but threw it into the trash can.
"Enough, don't make a scene. No matter how angry you are, it won't solve the problem!" Linda pulled her daughter to the side of the bed and sat down.
"Mom!" Madge raised her hand and touched her forehead. She was extremely anxious. "If Charlie really quit this job and do not want the company, take Wendy Lim out of the country to settle, then Uncle Hogg can not stop him, I really have no hope at all!"
Linda's expression turned grave when she heard that.
She had heard some rumors, but she didn't take it seriously. She thought it was just an act, but it turned out to be true. She even suspected that Charlie had been out of his mind.
"Mom, what should we do?"
