Chapter 473
Chapter 473 Replenish My Strength If it weren’t for Carol’s phone call, 1 wouldn’t have wanted to get out of bed.
I felt like all the energy had been drained from me.
I found that the spot beside me had gone cold. It seemed he had been gone for a while.
With gritted teeth, I pushed myself up and glanced around the bedroom. It was impeccably tidy. I muttered under my breath, “Is this guy a wolf? He nearly devoured me.” After a quick shower, my legs still felt shaky. I changed into some fresh clothes and headed downstairs. I saw breakfast was already laid out on the table, along with a note.
~~
Scoffing, I picked up the note. Was this some kind of trend now? His handwriting was bold and powerful. The note reminded me to eat and replenish my strength.
My face flushed as I cursed. This guy had no shame. He just had to point it out.
I lifted the lid off the dishes. The dishes were exquisitely prepared, and he even made some soup. Maybe it was because my energy was depleted, but I dug into everything with gusto. It was satisfying, and not one bit went to waste.
Then I drove straight into the office.
The online gossip was still buzzing, but I couldn’t be bothered. Atlas and I both
understood what was going on.
Let them say what they want. I couldn’t enjoy the benefits and still act coy, could I? Thinking about it, I couldn’t help but smile. I felt safe with someone like him watching over me. To think that just recently, Matthew had brought me such misfortune.
Now, it was all in the past.
Ryan wasn’t around, so all the issues were piled onto me. In the afternoon, Eleanor came to see me and said she was going to a trade fair. I asked her to take an assistant along and gather more information. Eleanor hadn’t even left yet when Grayson walked in. She talked to him briefly, asking if he had any additional requests.
Iwas pleased with my current team.
They all had great understanding, and there was no backstabbing or scheming. This was my most significant success. Once they sorted everything out, Eleanor bid me farewell and set off.
Then Grayson came over, standing in front of me with a self-assured smile. I knew he must have some good news.
Sure enough, he did. There was a major project in Bourdamun, and he handed me a stack of documents. “These are the relevant materials for this project.” If Grayson hadn’t mentioned it, I might have forgotten. Before Ava was
kidnapped, I met a man named Jeremiah. He claimed to be a developer from Bourdamun, and he provided this information.
Grayson looked at me and said, “But Jeremiah isn’t an ordinary person.” “What do you mean?” I asked. Since Grayson brought it up, it meant this person was suspicious.
“Chlo, do you remember Christopher Bill?” Grayson asked, his lips quirking.
“Of course, the project manager from Echelon Group. Atticus fired him because of that incident with Keegan,” I said. “Do they know each other?” “They’re cousins. Jeremiah is Christopher’s cousin!” Grayson
1 WY TO BONUS explained. “So, when Jeremiah came to you, it was because of Christopher’s connection.” vie Ah… Bourdamun, Christopher, and Jeremiah.
Christopher sent over Jeremiah to cause trouble for me. Little did he know, he had brought me valuable information. I ought to thank Christopher.
I’looked at Grayson and asked, “Has this project been confirmed? Don’t tell me it’s in Jeremiah’s hands.”
