Mitchell thought, ‘Did Eric take the wrong medication today? Why would he spend money on his love rival? Back then, he was not so tolerant toward Clayton!’
Mitchell was puzzled and did not dare to pursue this further, so he could only do as he was told.
Eric went to the office and was in a particularly good mood that day.
He patiently comforted some subordinates who made a mistake and let them off with a warning.
The subordinates left the President’s Office, apprehensive and confused. Their footsteps were light as they thought that they were dreaming.
Mitchell also thought that it was a little strange that Eric did not get him to kick people out that day. The bodyguards he had prepared were idle. Eric even gave them another chance.
This was very uncharacteristic of Eric!
It seemed that Selena’s influence was quite significant.
Mitchell was thinking about this when a department manager who had done something wrong came over anxiously. He grabbed Mitchell’s hand and would not let go.
“Mr. Crawford, what do you think Mr. Ferguson is doing today? Why does he keep smiling at me? I made a mistake in the proposal, but he didn’t scold me. He even asked me to change it and not to worry about it. Is he trying to force me to resign? Why do I have a bad feeling about this?”
Mitchell smiled. The department manager was not the only one who was anxious. There were rumors about Eric throughout the whole company.
Eric’s complexion had never been so good.
Mitchell said a few words of comfort before he let the department manager leave to correct the numbers on the proposal.
He took a deep breath and shook his head.
Mitchell did not expect this.
No matter what, this was a good thing. Eric could finally let go of Nicole and start his life anew. This was simply the best result.
In the bar, Selena yawned as she walked in. She saw Chaz, who came up to her, and Zachary, who had been sitting there waiting for her for who knew how long.
Zachary was still wearing yesterday’s clothes. He looked wretched and his face was a little glum.
Chaz watched as Selena walked in. He raised his eyebrows slightly and heaved a sigh of relief.
“Boss, Zachary has been waiting here for a long time. He came at dawn, saying that he has something to tell you in person.”
Selena glanced at him. She did not have time to look at her phone, so she clicked on it, only to find that Chaz had already reported it to her.
[Boss, Zachary is here again. He refuses to leave if he doesn’t see you! Are you going to hide outside?]
Selena turned off her phone, glanced at Zachary, who was walking over, and smiled politely.
“Sorry for the wait.”
Zachary pursed his lips. He could not conceal the tiredness on his handsome face.
However, he still shook his head.
“Selena, I…”
Selena stretched out her hand, interrupted him, and glanced at Chaz.
Chaz tactfully left to give them some privacy.
Selena crossed her arms, took a deep breath, and leaned on the sofa next to her
“Zachary, is there something you need from me?”
When Zachary saw that the group of people was safe last night, he began to worry about Selena.
However, at that time, Selena’s phone was no longer reachable.
Zachary suddenly felt that he had lost someone within his reach.
That feeling was so painful that he could not breathe.
“Selena, were you okay yesterday?”
Selena looked at him quietly and smiled.
“Aren’t I standing here now?”
“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have left you alone yesterday. When I went back to look for you, I couldn’t find you. I’m sorry…”
Zachary was defeated.
He did not allow himself to leave that group of people who needed help, but he allowed himself to turn a blind eye to the dangers that might befall the people around him.
