Chapter 243 Something Bad Will Happen _ _
When the alarm clock went off , I had just slept for a few hours . _ _ _
My brain was throbbing with sleepiness , but the need to go to work prompted me to get out of bed and head to the bathroom to freshen up . _ _
Looking in the mirror , I found my face particularly swollen and the two dark circles under my eyes so obvious . _ _ Then I had to put on a foundation to cover them . _ _ _ _
Suddenly I heard a knock on the door _
coming_ ” I pursed my lips . When I was sure that the lipstick had been applied evenly on my lips , I ran to my door . ”
“ Adenauer ? _ ” This was the first time I saw him so early in the
tomorrow
” Do you want some coffee ? _ Adenauer had a coffee cup in each hand and he passed one to me . ” You look very beautiful today . ”
” Thank you . I drank the coffee and looked at him . _ _ I had thought about many questions last night . _ _ I could n’t contain myself anymore . _
” You … ”
” me ”
We talk at the same time . _ _NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
” You go first . ” He was already used to it . _
Adenauer looked at me gently . _ ” I’m sorry about last night . ” _
“ You know you do n’t have to tell me that . Was everything going well last night ? I asked the question I wanted to ask in a different way . _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Last night , I walked around and around the house for a long time . _ _ Two hours later , I couldn’t help but send Adenauer a message .
Of course , I only asked out of courtesy , not really caring how Aaron was doing . _ _ _
Even if he had been an ordinary patient , he would have asked . _ _
Adenauer , who still seemed to be working at the time , gave me only a brief answer . After that , there was no news .
After seeing the “ problem solved ” , I admit that I did n’t sleep well . _ _
Maybe I thought too much , or maybe words could n’t convey emotions like conversations . I felt that Adenauer ‘s response was so cold . Various random thoughts filled my mind , making it hard for me to calm down . _ _ _ _ But I didn’t dareto ask. more so far .
“ I was busy all night , but we got to the hospital on time , so it was a false alarm . I already taught him a lesson , ” Adenauer said . _ _ _ _
“ A lesson ? why ? _ I asked subconsciously .
” Because it ruined my coffee hour . ” Adenauer looked at me with very sorrowful eyes . “ Can I have the coffee at your house again tonight ?”
Seeing his weird childish look , I laughed , “ Of course . _ _
You had no reason to turn it down , right ?
His eyes lit up immediately , and his tone even had a hint of emotion . ” That ‘s settled then . ” I will take you to a very interesting place tonight . Are you going to work now ? _ I will take you ” .
” Okay . ”
I grabbed my bag , closed the door , and jumped into the passenger seat of his car . _ _ _
“ By the way , did he mention anything about me last night ? I finally asked the question that had been bothering me all night . _ _ _ _ _
” Yes . ” Adenauer did not even raise his head .
I immediately felt a bit nervous , but I tried to appear calm . ” What did she say ? ” ” _
“ He seems to have a good impression of you . We chat casually . We talk about nothing important . Oh … ” Adenauer suddenly remembered something , looking at me . _ _ _ _ _ _ “ I told him that you told me about your relationship with him . _ _ Noyou care , right ? _ ”
our relationship ?
Oh … he’s referring to the relationship between the sponsor and the only graduating student from the lab . _
So Aaron did n’t mention anything else ?
“ Okay . _ That ‘s not a secret , ” I told him with a smile , stopping talking .
I probably thought too much . _ _
I thought the phone call last night was your deliberate attempt to ruin the relationship between me and Adenauer . _ But I was probably wrong . _
He was a playboy who could get a new woman soon after breaking up with the old one , so how could he not put aside a love experience three years after the breakup ? _ _
When we got to TWH , I asked Adenauer again where we were going tonight .
” It’s a secret , ” he winked at me . ” You’ll know when we get there . “
Seeing the rear lights of the car disappear , I turned around and entered the company , heading towards Laboratory 3 .
“ Dr Archer ? Good morning , but what are you doing here ? ” As soon as ! _ he entered the laboratory , I was surprised to see our leader , who usually rarely
appeared _ _
Today , Dr. Archer was wearing a black suit and looked very professional .
He nodded to me as a greeting . _
I leaned in close to Charlotte and whispered , “ Is there any great news ? ” .
Charlotte frowned and nodded seriously .
But before he could say anything , the entire lab staff had assembled . Then Dr. Archer announced the so – called ” big news ” .
”
“ I think all of you must have heard a lot of news about our CEO a few days ago . Today I am here to announce one thing . Due to health reasons , CEO Eric Schutze is officially retiring today and the new CEO will be looking over __ each Department soon . I hope Lab 3 can prepare a full progress report and introduction to the project in a couple of days . ”
Dr. Archer soon left after making the announcement .
As soon as the door closed , everyone in the lab immediately looked at one person : Charlotte Charles .
Charlotte raised her hands very consciously : “ No more news , but Mr. Schutze definitely did not retire early for health reasons . I saw him leave the company in a dejected state . He definitely didn’t look like the ones who normally retire . “early _ ”
” That ‘s easy to understand . It means that although our former CEO did not fulfill his duties From him, he probably did not cause much loss to the interests of the company . Therefore , the headquarters decided to give him a decent retirement . Li shrugged.and said pitifully , “ It ‘s too bad for Miss Monica . _ She did not receive any benefits and even lost her job and her reputation . _
” That doesn’t matter to me . ” Chloe looked at Charlotte and asked , “ Honestly, do you know who the new CEO is , a man or a woman ? what kind of _
per se
is it he or she ? ”
Chloe asked the questions that most of those present wanted to ask .
” I don’t know either . This news is too sudden , ” Charlotte said innocently.
“ You’re always well informed , are n’t you ? ” _
“ Being well informed does n’t mean you know everything , okay ? _ I just enjoy being part of the crowd . All people like to gossip when they are together . _ _
Unable to get any information on the new CEO , they dispersed in disappointment and returned to their respective jobs .
“ Who will make that report then ? Charlotte asked , following me . _
Yo
He gave her a sly smile .
As the lowest – ranking research assistant in the lab , who else was better suited for this report than her ?
Charlotte understood my smile and froze with a stunned face .
The morning work time passed quickly . During lunchtime , Chloe and I have lunch together in the company cafeteria . Snuggling in the nearby crowd . Charlotte soon noticed us .
” Breaking news : The new boss sent by headquarters is said to be a young American ! _ Charlotte exclaimed . _
I froze with a sandwich in hand . _
A young American from the Morris Group headquarters !
I had a strong feeling .
Something bad will happen .
