Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2016

"Would a manager's signature be required to enter the archives?"

My obvious question was quickly greeted by defensiveness. She studied me before nodding. "Yes, except for those who hold a managerial position and above, everyone else would need a signature before entering the archives."

Turning my gaze slightly, I narrowed my eyes and faced her with a bright smile. "Look, I used to be a manager in Nectarine Entertainment, and I've been in the archives many times, so can I...”

"How can I do that?" That girl immediately cut me off without even waiting for me to finish.

It was really disrespectful.

When I was feeling discouraged, the girl gave me an idea. "You can call President Reed about this. Verbal permission is still permission."

She was not wrong.

I fished out my phone and started a video call with Cindy on WhatsApp. A long time passed, however, and she did not answer. She really must be having a good time.

I gave up after several unsuccessful attempts.

Zedd had gone with her. I might be able to get to Cindy if I called him.

I did not seem to have his number. I rummaged through my contact list. I should have saved it.

Found it!

My eyes lit up as I dialed the number while waiting anxiously.

The call did not go through the first time, so I tried again.

Fortunately, he answered it.

Zedd's voice was obviously filled with confusion. He was confused about my call. "Wanda, why did you call me?"

There was quite a ruckus on his side. He was probably out having fun.

"Pass Cindy the phone." I cut to the chase.
