Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson)

Chapter 167

“President Walker, it’s me, Lilian Hawkins.”

“Oh? So it’s Mrs. Hawkins. Do you need anything from me?” Eric’s voice was indifferent, almost

callous. I could imagine what he looked like at that moment – eyes slightly narrowed with legs crossed

– as he patiently waited for his prey to fall into his trap.

“President Smith asked me to pass a document to you. I am currently waiting in the front lobby of your

company.”

“Pass me a document? Just hand it over to the hostesses; they will bring it to me.”

“President Smith said I must personally deliver this document to you.”

“And even? So please wait a moment.”

I thought the receptionists would let me through right away. Contrary to my expectations, I had to wait

another 30 minutes before a beautiful lady dressed in a designer suit approached me. “You must be

Mrs. Hawkins. Please come with me!”

Following the beautiful lady, we took the elevator to the 28th floor, where the president’s office was

located. As I expected, there were more people than I thought working on the same floor as the

president. So that beautiful lady took me to where Eric’s office was. Knocking on her office door, she

pushed open the door and announced, “Mr. Walker,

Mrs. Hawkins is here.

“Let her in!”

After that, I walked into Eric’s office under his unnerving gaze. Worried that his employees would get in

on my apology, I casually closed the door behind me.

He looked at me with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes. “Mrs. Hawkins, my schedule is very tight. You

can put the documents on the table and go.”

“Mr. Walker, actually, I came here today to apologize to you.”

“Apologize? Mrs. Hawkins, have you done something wrong?” He gave me a puzzled look.

Seeing that expression on his face, I thought to myself, Well, keep pretending. Pretend as much as you

can. Despite this, I outwardly displayed a sincere attitude. “Mr. Walker, please allow me to explain why I

missed your calls last night. Turns out I was in the shower when your call came in, so I didn’t hear my

phone ring. After getting out of the shower, I went straight to bed. It wasn’t until this morning that I saw

your missed calls. I wanted to return his calls immediately, but it was still too early. As I was afraid of

disturbing your rest, I decided to call you as soon as I arrive at the company. I didn’t mean to ignore it.”

“Hmm.” he gave a noncommittal answer.

“Mr. Walker, I admit I was wrong not to respond to you immediately. Please have mercy on me! Please

accept my apologies and forgive me this time!”

“What if I refuse to accept your apology?”

“Mr. Walker, you are a genius in the business industry. No matter how liberal you are, how can you

stoop to my level?” I said smiling.

“I will not fall for your tricks!” Eric narrowed his eyes at me. “What if I insist on stooping to your

level? What can you do?” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

“There’s nothing I can do. Mr. Walker, as the saying goes, anyone can make mistakes, so one should

forgive them whenever possible. Please find it in your magnanimous heart to forgive me!”

“I didn’t know you knew that saying too, Mrs. Hawkins. Did you take pleasure in hitting a man so hard

he was disfigured last night?” Finally, we come to the main topic.
