“This way, please.’ Stanley extended his hand to invite Hannie in. She did not forget to use any mirror
or ss that could show her reflection to check her current attire and makeup.
Atst, they reached the door to Jared’s office. Then, Stanley knocked on the door before he opened it
and entered the office. ‘President Presgrave, Miss Quins is here.”
She immediately revealed a sweet, faint smile. After she received a look from Stanley, she stepped into
the office elegantly. However, her smile stiffened the moment she saw another woman sitting on the
sofa because she had never expected to see Ellen in Jared’s office. Hence, she was shocked as she
turned to Stanley and stated, “I… I’d bettere again tomorrow because I have an urgent matter to
attend to.”
“President Presgrave needs to leave for abroad at 3.00PM today. Miss Quins, you’d better hurry up and
say it if there’s anything on your mind. Otherwise, you won’t have the chance to meet him,” Stanley
exined. He was involved in the whole incident, so he knew what to do.
Hannie’s expression became hideous. Then, I’ve got to bow down and beg Jared in front of Ellen in this
one hour?
Ellen sat on the sofa and looked at Hannie awkwardly standing at the door. She then resumed reading
the magazine in her hand and did not even acknowledge Hannie. Although she was rarely rude to
others, she despised people like Hannie-shameless.
“Miss Reiss, good afternoon. I-Is President Presgrave around?’ Hannie could only behave cheekily and
walked to the sofa to greet Ellen.
“What’s up?” Ellen asked while raising her eyebrows. I wonder if Jared did it purposely, considering that
he left me in his office before heading off on some business.
“Can you tell me when he’ll be back? I need to see him about something urgent,” Hannie questioned
immediately. However, Ellen purposely shook her head and replied coldly, “I’m not sure.”
“Miss Reiss, could you please help me in contacting him? I have an urgent need to see him, Hannie
pleaded. I can’t offend Ellen now, so all I can do is beg her to help me.
Ellen, on the other hand, did not forget how arrogant and confident Hannie was at the party. Thus, she
uttered aloofly. “Miss Quins, aren’t you capable? Why are you begging me?”
Hannie’s face became slightly flushed as she exined awkwardly, “I’m sorry for offending you before.
Please forgive me, Miss Reiss.’ She was smart, so she knew that she had to soothe Ellen’s anger
toward her since Ellen was in the office. Otherwise, it would be useless no matter how she begged
Jared as long as Ellen wasn’t on her side.
Ellen supported her chin as she looked at the forced look of plea on Hannie’s face. Serve you right! You
should keep a low profile and be humble.
Just when Hannie put her palms together to beg Ellen again, the door behind her was opened. Jared
strode into the office with Stanley. Seeing that, she leaped to her feet in delight. “Mr. Presgrave, here
you are.” Jared sat next to Ellen.
Hannie, on the other hand, stood up and took a few steps back. She put up a pleading front and bowed
while sincerely begging, ‘Please help me, Mr. Presgrave. I was just fooling around. I never intended to
compete against you. I was simply too naive and childish. I’m truly sorry.”
“Ellie, did she help you cool down?” He tilted his head and asked Ellen. As a result, Hannie’s heart
skipped a beat. She was worried now because of how much she had belittled Ellen at the party.
She had no idea Ellen would have the power to decide her fate. “Miss Reiss, I’m sorry. Please forgive
me for being so ignorant.” She had sumbed to a very humble level now as she just hoped that
Jared could save her.
Jared red at her, his expression was cold. “Get lost and go back to your country. Don’t let me see
you again.”
Her face was deeply flushed. That was thergest humiliation she had ever suffered, but she could
only endure it because she had to reap what she had sown.N?velDrama.Org owns this text.
