Chapter 223
“Do you need me toe over and help deliver them to Dr. Archer?” Charlotte suspected nothing.
“No, thanks. She already signed them. Now I need to deliver them to Mr. Schutze for him.”
After a simple lie, I got up from the bathroom, left the cubicle and went back to the president’s office.
Fortunately, Mrs. Monica was already sitting in front of her secretary’s desk this time.
She had redressed neatly, and even the top buttons around her neck were buttoned. Her makeup was
reapplied. She didn’t look like the horny girl from the office right now.
Seeing my appearance, Ms. Monica showed a standard smile, “Good afternoon, what can I do?”
Seeing me, Ms. Monica put on a standard smile and said, “Good afternoon. What can I help you?”
“Good afternoon, Mrs. Monica. I’m Dr. Olive Woods from Lab No. 3. Here are some documents that my
boss, Dr. Archer, needs to pass on to Mr. Schutze. Is Mr. Schutze there now? “
Oh yes, please wait a moment.” Mrs. Monica immediately took the inte from the desk.
I watched her in silence.
Aside from the fact that she was having an affair with Mr. Schutze, Mrs. Monica was doing a pretty
good job. Soon, she told me that she would juste in.
I knocked on the door of the president’s office again.
Very good! The open window had removed the obscene atmosphere in the room earlier, and there was
no trace left of the ce where they had
sex.
Mr. Schutze was sitting in arge chair. He looked at me and said, “Dr. Woods, what documents did Dr.
Archer ask you to give me?”
He looked at me with a normal expression. I breathed a sigh of relief and quickly handed over the
documents.
“Dr. Archer nned toe in person, but he got a call. He seemed to be busy with something. I was
there, so I offered to run him an errand.”
“Do not lie to me”. Mr. Schutze looked at the documents.
My heart skipped a beat, and my heart started beating fast again.
What did he mean? Why did he sound so serious? Could it be that he was more cautious than he
thought, and he had already checked the surveince and discovered my existence?
But Mrs. Monica didn’t seem to know anything when she saw me outside. At the moment.
My mind was spinning fast. I was guessing the reason why Mr. Schutze suddenly said that and held my
breath.
Suddenly, Mr. Schutze looked up and met my eyes.
He was so nervous!
“Dr. Archer is notoriously slow. He must have made the trip yourself because he’s in a hurry to get
approval, right?” He smiled.
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief!
I almost died of fear!
I froze and was a bit out of control.
“Haha…” I thought she must be smiling awkwardly right now. Fortunately, Mr. Schutze had lowered his
head and continued reading the file.
“So what?” Cinder asked.
“Nothing special happened. After handing over the documents, I quickly left and returned to theb. My
lovely assistant gave me medicine for my stomach.” When I remembered the incident, I was still quite
excited and scared, “You know what? Since then, the president’s office had be as scary as the
teacher’s office in high school to me.”
When I was in high school, I had never wanted to go to the teacher’s office to get a lecture. Now I didn’t
want to go to the president’s office to be forced to remember the passionate sex scene!
“Haha… Honey, you’re making meugh out loud.” Cinderughed so hard that she fell onto the bed.
Nick wasughing too, “So you’re going to keep the secret?”
“Of course.” I nodded without hesitation, “After all, I still have to work here. He is the CEO, my boss’s
boss. How can I agree to mess with him?”
Not only that, but even if he was someone of the same rank as me, he wouldn’t expose it.
I was not in a position to do that.
After all, I was also a woman who had cheated on a man and given him my whole heart, foolishly
thinking that I would have a future with him.
Thinking of that man again, I didn’t think the affairs of Mr. Schutze and Mrs. Monica were worth
mentioning.
After all, that lunatic had done that to me outside a charity event, with his aunt and David not far away.
I was the craziest.
“It’s okay to tell others. Ms. Monica’s n is doomed to fail.” Cinder’s words brought my mind back to
reality.
“What do you mean?” He was a bit taken aback.
N?velDrama.Org ? content.
“What do I mean? Baby, do you think the secretary is interested in that old man’s sexual skills?” Cinder
yelled at me jokingly.
“Well… of course not.” I was a bit speechless, “Of course, I know she’s sleeping with a man his father’s
age primarily for profit. But why did you say that his n would fail?”
“Because, as far as I know, the president she’s sleeping with is no longer in his prime.” Cinder picked
up the champagne from the table and took a sip.
“What news have you heard?” Nick also smelled gossip.
77.
Cinder put down her ss and said, “I went back to my parents’ house yesterday. You know my father
has a good rtionship with the Morris Group. Thanks to you, I specifically mentioned TWH to my
father. He told me that the Morris Group has been investigating the president of TWH for a long time.
She could understand every word Cinder said, but… “Wait…what Morris? What Morris? My heartbeat
started to beat fast. Chapter 223 Rtionship between TWH and Aaron “Honey, he’s the Morris you
think he is.” He was stupefied. 288 Vouchers “What? Morris? What does TWH have to do with the
Morris Group?” My mind went nk and I was totally confused. On theputer screen, Cinder saw
my reaction and widened her eyes, “Olive baby, don’t you know that thepany you joined belongs to
Aaron’s family?” “How could I know this?” I couldn’t keep myposure any longer. The snacks were
thrown to the side by me. I got up from the sofa and kept pacing back and forth. I was shocked and
panicked. I sat in front of theputer and looked at Cinder, “So you knew about this all along?”
Cinder looked at me and hesitantly said yes. What the hell! “Honey, I thought you knew. After all, the
rtionship between the two is written in the name.” Cinder exined in surprise. “What name?”
Nothing urred to me, “Thispany is called TWH, which is short for the name of the founder,
Thomas Weber Hoffman. Where is Morris?
Cinder rolled her eyes and said, “Honey, you’ve been sleeping with Aaron for so long and you still don’t
know his middle name is Hoffman?”
His middle name…
I froze in ce.
I remembered the time with Aaron. In fact, we had slept many times. But he had never paid attention to
his middle name.
“So what is the rtionship between this Thomas Weber Hoffman and Aaron Morris?” Nick asked
Cinder, “Is the middle name usually the mother’sst name?”
“Yeah. Hoffman is his mother’sst name. The founder of thispany,
I had thought that I was pulling myself together and that even if I heard the news about Aaron and the
Morris Group, I wouldn’t feel a thing.
But I couldn’t lie to myself.
I cared so much! Damn!
What Cinder had just said hit my heart hard?

“You’ve been sleeping with Aaron for so long, but you don’t even know his middle name is Hoffman?”
If I did not know.
When I met him, I just wanted to use him as a tool to get back at Vincent. He was just a friend with
benefits to me. Who would care about the middle name of a friend with benefits?
But then, I couldn’t lie to myself anymore that he was just a friend with benefits.
I thought that between Aaron and me, I had always loved him more.
But Cinder’s question hit me easily. If she loved him as much as she thought, howe she didn’t
even know his middle name after sleeping for so long?
“Hello? Baby Olive, you don’t look so good.” Cinder waved at the
camera.
“I’m fine.”
But your face seems to suggest otherwise. Cinder had no intention of giving up.
I forced myself to cheer up and looked at Cinder: “The information you just gave me was a bit
overwhelming and I got a little excited. But it’s nothing. It’s all over now. Do not worry about me”.
“You better not be lying,” Cinderined.
I smiled, “Do I have to lie to you?”
“Don’t lie to us. Of course, we know you very well.” Cinder suddenly met my eyes very seriously, “I
mean, you better not lie to yourself.”
He didn’t want to talk about this topic anymore.
“Okay, it’s gettingte. Let’s call it a day, folks.” Nick looked quickly at Cinder and said, “Changed the
subject.”
Cinder and Nickughed at each other a bit jokingly. He was a little helpless, but there was nothing he
could do about it.
“Forget it. Give our poor girl some space. Anyway, now she has a new man, and everything will be fine.
Cinder said goodbye.
“Please let me know if there is any follow up on Mr. Schutze.” Nick also logged out.
After hanging up,
Balu approached me wagging his tail and caressing my hand.
Ms. Krause had recently been back on a business trip to Hamburg. Her husband would not return for
several months. Balu was almost always with me. She had been very aware of my emotions.

“I’m fine.” Looking down at him, I reached out and patted his head with a smile.
Balu moaned a few times as if she was talking to me.
“I’m really fine.” I picked him up, hugged him and nestled my face against his neck.
“I’m just a little sad.”
For the past three years, she had been convinced that she loved Aaron deeply when she hadn’t even
noticed his middle name.
She hadn’t told me much about her family, and I had never gotten curious enough to explore it.
“Balu, you don’t really seem to love him very much.”
That’s why we broke up, right? I asked myself repeatedly, but I couldn’t find an answer.
I couldn’t help but feel a little sad and started crying. Balu turned to look at me, raised his head and
tried to lick my tears away.
At that moment, I realized the benefits of having a dog.
Otherwise, it would be hard to imagine how terrible it would be for me to be crying alone in the house
right now.
I hugged Balu-tightly, and he remained silent, calming my emotions with hispany.
I didn’t know how long I cried.
Every time she missed Aaron, she cried so hard she couldn’t even stop. He would always make me
suspect that he would shed all the tears of my life.
Then I pulled myself together, turned myputer back on, and googled TWH’s connection to the
Morris Group.
I never suspected that Cinder’s news would be wrong, but when the rtionship between the two was
written on the website, I had to ept this reality.
I had chosen toe here to escape my sad memories.
But it turned out that I had somehow fallen into a trap myself.
Fortunately, TWH was not a very importantpany for the Morris Group. It could even be said that it
is quite marginal. The people here were quite independent of the Morris Group.
Aaron couldn’t have known that I worked here.
This made me give up on the idea of quitting.
When I went to work the next day, I quietly tested the Morris Group’s knowledge of the people around
me.
Aside from Charlotte, my very knowledgeable and gossip-loving scientific research assistant, almost
none of my colleagues knew anything about the rtionship between the two.
Even those who had heard of the Morris Group only knew that it was a leading group in the United
States.
They were more concerned with the progress of the approval of the documents presented to the office
of the president than with the gossip of the wealthy families of the United States.
At this stage of medical development, the schedule was very tight. The longer approval was dyed,
the more difficult it would be to manipte the control variables for the new samples. It was what
stressed us the most.
On the third day, two pieces of news arrived at theboratory at the same time.
One was good news while the other was bad news.
