Chapter 837


    "She was recruited by me as an assistant," Linda replied calmly.


    Monica paused for a moment. "Your assistant? Do you still need an assistant? I can also be your assistant.”


    As a secretary''s assistant, she would definitely be able to see Maddox every day.


    Linda could not hide herughter when she heard this. "Miss Dormer, you''re really making things difficult for me. I''m just a humble secretary at the


    Collins Corporation. I can''t make the decision of hiring assistants on my own. Plus, there aren''t so many matters in thepany that I require two


    assistants."


    Monica was very disappointed. "Then what can I do? I only want to help Seb. Miss, can you help me think of a solution?"


    They had already entered the elevator. Linda pressed the floor button, shook her head helplessly and replied, "I am just a secretary. I can''t do


    anything.”


    Monica pouted her lips, feeling a little angry. “Then I''ll go find Master Collins and ask him to arrange a position for me.”


    Since Monica had already said so, then it was even more difficult for a secretary like Linda to interfere. Seeing that they almost reached the intended


    floor, Linda passed on Sebastian’s message to Monica.


    "Miss Dormer, the Collins Corporation is usually very busy. Hence, Mr. Maddox would like you to stop disturbing him during working hours in the


    future."


    Hearing this, Monica immediately red at her. "What did you say?"


    She was still trying to think of a way not to offend Linda. She did not expect that Linda would not tter her the next second.


    Linda felt the change in Monica''s expression and took a small step back. "This is what Mr. Maddox ordered. Did you disturb him today?"


    Disturb?


    Monica was so angry that she bit her lower lip. "I was only in there for a short while. How is that disturbing? Don''t tell me you''ve misunderstood Seb''s


    instructions? In the past, when he was feeling unwell, I was always the one taking care of him. I have a very good rtionship with him, and we will


    be engaged in the future.”


    She blurted out everything in one go as soon as she got anxious.


    Linda was not surprised when she heard that they would get engaged


    In fact, if the news of the engagement between the Collins family and the Dormer family were to be spread, she felt that it was quite normal.


    After all, it was normal for two influential families to have a marriage alliance.


    However..


    Mr. Maddox''s words were with anger, and this marriage alliance.. might not necessarily happen.


    Ding-


    Just then, the elevator door opened. Linda stood still and said with a smile, "I will be sending you off here. If you have any other questions, you can


    go to the Collins family at night to ask personally after getting off work."


    Monica walked out of the elevator, out of her wits.


    When Linda returned to the secretary''s office, Minerva was printing the documents. When she saw Linda walking in, she called out to her, “Linda.”


    "Yes." Linda nodded.


    Minerva hesitated for a moment before saying, "Thank you for helping me out just now, Linda.”


    Hearing that, Linda raised her eyebrows and said,


    "Help you out? What do you mean by that? Since when did I help you out?"


    Minerva went silent.


    It seemed that she did not want to discuss this matter further. Since this was the case, Minerva could only smile faintly and did not continue.


    Linda didn''t want to care about these things at first, but when she saw her quiet down, she suddenly became curious and walked to her side to ask in


    a low voice.Copyright by N?v/elDrama.Org.


    "What''s going on? Why did you meet her in the bathroom?"


    Speaking of this, Minerva felt a little emotional. She didn''t expect to meet Monica in the bathroom. She was going to hand the matter over to fate


    when she entered the bathroom.


    But fate had truly given them the chance to meet.


    Thinking of this, Minerva chuckled and said, "I went to the bathroom. She came in, hence we met.”


    Seeing her talking in such a light way, Linda thought for a while and still felt that something was wrong. "She is so hostile to you. Can you feel it?"


    Minerva nodded.


    "Because of Mr. Maddox?"


    The next second, Linda asked a question that Minerva did not expect. She froze for a moment before turning to look at Linda.


    Linda looked at her calmly and said,


    "You don''t haye-to say anything


    more. I think thave already guessed


    it. I knowthat young women all like~

    have you ever thought about <


    whether his family will ept you or


    not? I''m not trying to embarrass you,


    but there are many things in the


    world that are realistic and we have


    to ept them."


    Linda''s words were not euphemistic, but they were not too direct. However, Minerva could still tell that she was kind and that she spoke in a light


    tone.


    "Linda, about that...I have thought about it.”


    "What, you''ve thought about it?” Linda was a little surprised. "It seems that.. I underestimated your rtionship with Mr. Maddox. Then how far have


    you guys gone?”


    Gossip was a person''s nature, including Linda.


    Minerva''s ears were a little flustered. "Linda, I..."


    "Okay, okay, okay. I won''t ask.” Linda waved her hand and said, "I shouldn''t have gossiped like this, in case I get into trouble. You young people really


    After that, she turned around and went out.


    Minerva stood there alone. After Linda left, the shyness on her face disappeared, reced by a solemn look in her eyes


    From the moment she entered thepany, she thought that one day she would definitely meet Jarold


    It was just a matter of time. Now that she had met Monica first, how long would it be before she and Jarold met?


    Auntie Stark.. Minerva didn’t know how her situation was.


    She was also embarrassed as she kept calling and urging. It really bothered others.


    At the Collins family.


    "Master Collins, you have to stand up for me. I truly like Seb. As long as we can get engaged, my heart will never change even if I die. Master Collins,


    help me, please?"


    She had been crying since she came back from thepany, and Jarold''s headache because of her. He retired and let Sebastian take over because


    he wanted peace.


    People had to recognise their old age. When reaching a certain age, one would feel powerless to do many things.


    Now that he had found his grandson, he wanted to hand everything over to Sebastian so that he could live with peace and quiet


    However, during this period after

    "Well, don''t be sad. Don''t you just want to enter thepany? I''ll instruct them when the timees and get you a position. Then you can see


    Sebastian every day."


    Monica''s eyes shined. "Really? Master Collins, thank you! It''s just that... there''s this person in thepany.”
