Chapter 36 – Calm down
The more Islene spoke, the smaller her voice became, her hand tugging tightly on Eral’s sleeve, “Please, the company employees don’t have permission to delete internal posts, can you help me and get rid of that video?”
If Aaron finds out, how can she stay at Night Group in the future?
“Whatever you propose, I can agree to it!” Islene’s hands were covered in cold sweat and she was close to kneeling down to Tina on the spot.
Next to the VIP lane, Sherry dragged her suitcase and approached, saying gently, “With Mr. Swift’s reputation at stake, who do you think, without his authorization, would dare to post the video.”
At a single word, Islene’s face turned instantly and unbearably pale, even as she failed to stand and fell onto the luggage trolley.
Eral pushed down his glasses, “Go to the HR department and do the paperwork.”
Her behavior had already caused Mr. Swift’s displeasure and she was to be transferred to a branch office after this trip, but Jane kept putting in a good word for her so that no official order was given.
But now, there is nothing anyone can do to help her.
Eral watched as Sherry walked past Islene as if nothing had happened and didn’t say another word.
A frown followed, “You knew all along that she was the one who shut you and Mr. Swift down?”
Sherry dragged her suitcase and inclined her head sideways, “How could I? I would have been the first to report it to Mr. Swift if I’d known.”
And that’s true.
Eral froze and laughed dryly, “But if you didn’t know, how could you have told the hotel to check the security footage at the entrance to Islene’s room at that time?”
He had already started to find out who was behind it, but there had been no results because there were too many people staying at the hotel at the time to be able to sort them out.
But Sherry’s words actually checked out Islene’s head within five minutes.
Sherry looked at Eral’s surprised and searching look and said with a soft smile, “I was just suggesting something random, it probably happened.”
With that, she headed out the door, leaving Eral with a puzzled back.
Two hours later, Nola’s return flight lands and Gregorio drops his company business and comes to pick her up himself, but as soon as they meet, Nola keeps cursing Sherry.
“She’s the kind of person that Aaron wouldn’t have anything to do with, you don’t have to care so much about her.” Gregorio said as he helped her carry her bags.
He was a man too, and there were times when women were just playthings for people in their position. A plaything.
Nola gritted her teeth, “Brother, you don’t understand, Sherry is very scheming, and I don’t know what she has done, not only did she get into Night Group, but she is also entangled with Andrew, and what’s worse, Aaron actually made her his assistant.”
She could not swallow this anger in any way.
Sherry caused Islene to be sacked, so she told Nola straight away that Sherry had been Aaron’s assistant.
If we are to die, we all die together.
So on the way back, Nola hated to kill Sherry right away.
This was something Gregorio hadn’t thought of, and thinking about the phone call he had made earlier, he murmured, “So it was Sherry.”
“What?” Nola didn’t catch his words.
“Nothing, don’t worry, I have a way to get her out of Aaron’s sight.”
Nola frowned in annoyance, “It had better be.”
Gregorio gave a reluctant smile, “Got it, get in.”
He knew it wasn’t a good idea, but the Garcia family only had one precious daughter, Nola, so it was only natural to go along with everything she wanted, not to mention the fact that her and Aaron’s relationship had long been agreed upon by the elders of both families.
If Aaron dares to betray his sister, just wait for this Garcia Family’s revenge.
…
Aaron returned to the office from the airport for three and a half hours of consecutive meetings.
By the time he walked out of the conference room, he was a little tired.
Push open the office door and it’s dark inside.
“Eral?”
His voice was a little hoarse and he shouted, but no one responded.
Perhaps it was also the wind chill from being on the rooftop for so long in the cold wind.
He felt his head sink a little and thought about sitting on the sofa a little longer when, in a daze, he heard footsteps beside him.
But his eyelids were heavy and he couldn’t keep his eyes open.
A hot towel was placed on top of the head.
The man’s brow knitted tightly, who was it?
He fought to open his cold eyes, but there was no one in the office, and then the door was pushed open.
Nola walks in.
“Aaron, are you all right?” She asked softly, and took the specially prepared soup from her bag, “I had the kitchen at home make it ahead of time, try it.”
She smiled warmly and thoughtfully; her brow full of love.
Aaron lifted his eyes to look at her, not reaching for it, then his eyes subconsciously looked to the door, “Just …”
Nola looked at him gently and took the spoon out and handed it to him.
The more this happens, the less she can compete with Sherry, instead she has to focus all her attention on Aaron and let him know that Sherry is no match for her.
How could a woman who is the daughter of the Garcia Family lose to a woman who has been in prison?
Absolutely not.
“Aaron, don’t you have an appetite?” She blinked her beautiful eyes with a look of concern.
For some reason, she felt that Aaron seemed to be looking at her differently than before.
She hesitated for a moment, “You’re not still angry with me, are you? I was wrong about this time, I won’t say that kind of thing again.”
Nola finally chose to keep her head down.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Aaron lifted his eyes and glanced at her for a long moment, then said with sunken eyes, “You don’t need to apologize to me, with the power and status of the Garcia Family today, Nola, you, don’t need to make such a show of being nice in front of me.”
He whirled around and got up, dryly tugging up his suit jacket.
Nola’s pupils shifted and she got up in a hurry, hugging him from behind.
In the office, the shadows of the two men fell on the curtains, and in the corridor at that moment, Sherry watched the lights come on, and the sounds of conversation coming from inside, and sent a message to the doctor who had made the appointment.
“Sorry, you don’t have to come over.”
What does she have to do with Aaron’s life?
Just as Sherry’s side left, Aaron grimaced and yanked Nola’s hand away, his voice slightly deeper, “I need time to think about whether we should take our relationship any further, and you can think about why you actually chose me.”
Because of money?
Or is it because …
Nola was completely frozen.
“We should have calmed down a long time ago, before it was, well, impossible to close.”
All those years of Aaron finding excuses to push her away, but never saying anything like that!
Sherry, it must all be because of Sherry.
“Aaron, I …”
“It’s late, have the driver pick you up and take you back.” He said, turned around and left.
Nola’s fingertips tightened fiercely and her eyes filled with loathing.
