Mnie said, “It’s fine. I’m hanging up now.


    Eugene and Ca did not approach her. They must have gone straight to the basement parking lot.


    Mnie found a café near the mall entrance and waited there for the rain to subside.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    It felt like the sky had been holding back the rain for a long time, and when it finally poured, it took almost an hour before it


    gradually subsided.


    Mnie had been chatting idly with Yvonne via message when she suddenly received news from Yana.


    Yana wanted to share some gossip, and it felt like she was gleeful about the news she was about to share.


    [Vi caused a huge problem for thepany. It was important to Mr. Scott that thepany worked with the Qaisas. It took a


    lot of effort to finally meet them and discuss business, but Vi ruined the meeting.


    [I heard someone in thepany say that Lee and Julie were called back to the office at night by higher management to work


    overtime.]


    Mnie was not able to leave anyway. She asked: [What happened?]


    She knew long before that Eugene wanted thepany to expand in Oskon City.


    How could Vi ruin this all on her own?


    Yana replied very quickly: [Vi passed out in the office that day and insisted that Mr. Scott take her to the hospital. He had


    initially gotten Lee to do it, but she kept crying and sobbing in Mr. Scott''s office.


    [The people from the non-profit organization were there, so Mr. Scott had no choice but to take her to the hospital.


    [Lee told me that the Qaisas had only given LeapCo one day to meet up. Thepany tried to arrange another meeting time


    with them again, but so far, there hasn’t been any positive reply from them.]


    After Yana was done sending the messages, Mnie was reminded of the day she bumped into Eugene and Vi at the


    hospital. No wonder there was a grim look on Eugene’s face and he looked like he was trying his best to hold something back.


    It turned out that was the reason.


    Eugene probably did not think that Vi did anything serious by ruining the meeting with the Qaisas. After all, he had not


    expressed anything about this issue so far.


    Mnie smiled self—deprecatingly. Eugene did manage to do what he had promised.


    He had said he would be able to cover Vi no matter what trouble she caused.


    Eugene was covering for Vi in something so serious. It must be true love.


    Mnie replied a few sentences to Yana nonchntly and changed the topic after that.


    The same heavy rain was sttering down at other corners of North City besides where Mnie was, and it did not look like it


    was about to stop.


    At a café downstairs in a residential area, Vi was pale and sickly while looking at the man in front of her. “It’s raining really


    heavily. What are you doing here?


    Mason looked at her with a pained expression. “I just came back from Niere City and heard that you were having a fever. | was


    feeling worried, so | came over to have a look at you.”


    He was a handsome man, and when he spoke so softly and tenderly, Vi felt like she was all he really cared about.


    She lifted her gaze and wanted to say something, but when she saw the concerned and restrained look in Mason''s eyes, she


    finally could not take it anymore. She vented all her negative feelings.


    Since returning from the hospital, she suffered from a fever for a few days. She had taken time off from the office during this


    period.


    Vi thought that Eugene woulde to see her. Unfortunately, besides the reply Eugene gave her after she sent hima


    message, there was no sign of him.


    When she asked about this, he kept saying he was busy.


    There were so many people at LeapCo, and Eugene was the CEO. How busy could he be? Was he really unable to make some


    time for her?


    Vi did not believe it.


    She felt that Eugene had gotten tired of her and wanted to dump her.


    Mason did not miss the look of grievance that shed in her eye. He pushed his sses up his nose and said even more


    tenderly, “Vi, | know that there are some things I’m not supposed to say, but seeing you like this makes me a little sad.”


    He paused and seemed determined about something. “I know you like Eugene Scott, but you’re suffering, Vi. It upsets me to


    see you this way. Do you understand what I’m trying to say?”
