Chapter 215


    Linden followed closely behind Bary, hardly daring to breathe, fearing he might be implicated.


    Unexpectedly, Bary stopped abruptly and said, “Linden.”


    Linden was taken aback, clutching his files as he approached. “Mr. Covington?”


    Bary said, “Cynthia’s birthday is tonight. Prepare a gift and ce it on my desk in two hours.”


    Linden prepared himself for criticism, but Bary’s request caught him off guard.


    He asked a foolish question, “Mr. Covington, should I let Mrs. Covington know about this?”


    Immediately, he regretted it.


    Even if Bary engaged in such a morally dubious behavior, Linden should have ignored it as a


    secretary.


    Bary stared at him with his piercing gaze. “What do you think, Linden?”


    Linden was stunned. How could he answer such a question?


    To be honest, Linden still didn’t understand what Bary’s intentions were towards Moira.


    Bary spent over 80 million dors on the Ethereal effortlessly. When he heard that Eric went to


    find Moira, he immediately left important clients to rush back.


    These signs indicated that Bary cared deeply about Moira.


    But having been by Bary’s side for many years, Linden dared to assert that there was hardly any


    contact between him and Moira before


    that ident.


    Could one fall in love so deeply without much contact? Was the power of love at first sight so


    strong?


    However, it didn’t seem like Bary would fall in love at first sight.


    Linden thought all the possibilities and tentatively said, “I think Mrs. Covington should be informed.


    What do you think, Mr. Covington?”


    Bary nced at him. “Why are you still asking if you know the answer?”


    With that, Bary entered the elevator.


    Linden wiped his forehead, feeling like he had just been through a life–or–death situation. It was


    terrifying!


    Preparing a thoughtful birthday gift within three hours might be difficult for Moira, but it was no


    trouble for the capable Linden.


    Bary said to have the gift on his desk by half past five, and Linden had already ced the well–


    packaged gift on Bary’s desk by five


    o’clock.


    Linden said, “Mr. Covington, this is the birthday gift I prepared for Ms. Hurst, thetest diamond–


    patterned bag from a famous brand.”


    Bary didn’t care about the gift. After all, Linden would choose appropriately. “Understood.”


    Upon hearing this, Linden tactfully exited the office.


    Twenty minutester, Bary left the office with the bag and drove back to his vi.


    Moira didn’t expect Bary to return so soon. She was only halfway through doing her makeup


    when she heard a knock on the door. Her hand shook, causing her false eyshes to stick on


    incorrectly.


    She had no choice but to throw them away and get up to open the door.


    Unsurprisingly, it was Bary. He handed her the bag as if fulfilling a duty. “This is for


    Cynthia’s gift!”


    Moira took the bag and genuinely praised, “Wow, Mr. Covington, you’re


    mazing!”


    Bary said, “It was prepared by Linden.”


    Moira was taken aback but continued her ttery. “Oh, you have a great secretary. You’re


    amazing!”

    It must be said that Bary was indeed pleased. He said, “You can continue your makeup. Let me


    know when you’re ready.”


    “Okay, I’ll be ready soon!” Moira nodded.


    She decided to skip the false eyshes and just touch up her makeup!


    Moira nodded and was about to turn back to her room when Bary stopped her. “Wait.”


    She asked, “What’s wrong?” Was the gift wrong?


    Bary replied, “There’s something on your eyelid.”


    With that, Moira felt a warmth on her eyelid. Before she could react, a quarter of a false eysh


    appeared in front of her eyes.


    It was quite embarrassing!
