Chapter 243: Chapter 243
Seeing Nancy Sutton coming out from the direction of the office, the assistant was extremely puzzled.
Didn’t Miss Sutton just say she had something to discuss with the President? But why did she come out so quickly?
Nancy Sutton’s eyes were slightly red, but to avoid others seeing her lose composure, she tightly pinched her fingertips, "Don’t tell him I was here."
Although the assistant didn’t know what had happened, she still respectfully complied.
Nancy Sutton no longer lingered, quickly stepped into the elevator, which stopped at the 5th floor, and a group of employees walked in, discussing loudly.
"Did you hear? Our President Everett has a girlfriend!"
"Oh, what? President Everett has a girlfriend? Isn’t he always uninterested in women?"
"Yes, yes, aren’t you afraid this might be fake news?"
"Of course, it’s not fake! I heard from the receptionist, that Miss Langley is President Everett’s girlfriend, she even came to see President Everett today!"
"Yes, yes, I heard too, today that Miss Langley will accompany President Everett to the banquet, being his date..."
Nancy Sutton listened silently to their conversation, feeling even more hurt inside, no wonder he suddenly became so distant with her, turns out he has a girlfriend, worried his girlfriend might misunderstand...
Luckily, she didn’t get a chance to confess to him, or else she would have really become a joke...
Nancy Sutton fought back her unwilling emotions and took out her phone to block him on WeChat.
Even though she likes him, she’s not someone who clings endlessly!
"Nancy, what are you doing here?"
As soon as Nancy Sutton exited the elevator, she bumped into Miles Keaton, who looked delighted to see her. Nancy Sutton nodded lightly and turned to leave.
But Miles Keaton immediately reached out to stop her, his smile radiant, "I followed my dad to the Everett Group for business, didn’t expect to meet you, Nancy, we truly have fate!"
Ever since receiving a warning from Elliot Everett, Miles Keaton indeed dared not cling to her again, but never thought he would meet her today by chance, instantly throwing Elliot Everett’s previous warning out of his mind.
"Nancy, for tonight’s banquet, I just happen to need a date, as a favor to me, accompany me to the banquet as my date!"
Nancy Sutton worked hard to suppress her emotions, putting on an indifferent attitude, "Alright, sure."
Miles Keaton obviously did not expect her to agree, immediately overjoyed, "Nancy then it’s settled, I’ll come to pick you up at that time!"
"Elliot, I didn’t... I just accidentally lost my balance earlier, it wasn’t intentional..."
Liana Willow bit her lip slightly, showing a pitiful look, making people soften towards her involuntarily.
Unfortunately, Elliot Everett was not moved at all, his expression cold, tone impatient, laced with heavy warning.
"Leave, and never enter my office uninvited again, or don’t blame me for being harsh on your family."
Listening to Elliot Everett’s merciless words, Liana Willow’s face turned even paler, but still endured the embarrassment and softly spoke.
"But Elliot, Auntie asked me to be your date today..."
"Leave." Latest content publıshed on ɴovelfire.net
Elliot Everett’s remaining patience ran out, he cast a cold glance, full of pressure.
"Don’t make me repeat myself."
Liana Willow was intimidated by his strong presence, not daring to stay, covering her mouth and ran out sobbing.
Seeing Liana Willow crying as she ran out of the office, the assistant was already accustomed to it, after all, their president was always indifferent and distant except towards Miss Serena and Miss Sutton.
Elliot Everett took out his phone, but hesitated to send a message, his handsome face full of restlessness.
Last time she got drunk, doing some boundary-crossing things was understandable, but he was sober and did the same, although she forgot all those things upon sobering up, he couldn’t forget them.
He couldn’t comfortably say anymore that he only sees her as a sister.
He didn’t know how to face her, so he chose to avoid...
"President Everett, the evening dress for the banquet has been delivered, would you like to take a look?" The assistant reported respectfully as she entered.
Elliot Everett refused indifferently, then immediately noticed a faint scent of perfume, his brows furrowing instantly.
This scent was very familiar, but he couldn’t recall it for a moment...
"No... President Everett, no one came..."
Thinking of Nancy Sutton’s instructions before she left, the assistant had no choice but to lie to Elliot Everett.
Elliot Everett’s deep dark eyes narrowed dangerously, evidently not believing, but before he could inquire further, his phone suddenly vibrated intensely.
Elliot Everett calmed down and answered the call.
"Mom, what’s the matter?"
As soon as the call connected, Jocelyn Sterling’s displeased voice came through.
"Elliot, what happened with you? Miss Willow went there to be your date, you weren’t appreciative but also made the girl cry!"
Elliot Everett frowned, "Mom, don’t do this in the future."
On the other end of the phone, Jocelyn Sterling snorted proudly, "Do you think I want to? It’s because you’re not making an effort, I’m worried you won’t have a date for the banquet today!
If you don’t want Miss Willow as your date, there’s still the Miller family daughter, the Langley family daughter..."
Elliot Everett’s expression grew even more helpless, interrupting her in a low voice, "I already have someone in mind for a date."
Hearing this, Jocelyn Sterling immediately became excited on the other side of the phone, "Really? That’s so rare, you actually took the initiative to find a date!"
"Hehe, wonderful, wonderful, my son finally knows how to pursue a girl!"
Elliot Everett: "..."
On the other end, Jocelyn Sterling was clearly very excited, "Honey, did you hear that? Our son finally knows how to chase after a girl, soon enough he’ll bring us a daughter-in-law! With a daughter-in-law, can a grandson be far behind?"
Listening to this increasingly absurd conversation, Elliot Everett, feeling quite head-ached, rubbed his temples before hanging up the phone.
After thinking for a moment, Elliot Everett opened the chat box, [Nancy, are you free tonight?]
Once the message was sent, a red exclamation mark immediately popped up.
Elliot Everett frowned in confusion, he hadn’t seen this red exclamation mark before?
"President Everett, you’ve... you’ve been blocked?!"
Standing beside, the assistant couldn’t help but burst out laughing, it turned out there’s someone daring enough to block their President Everett!
Elliot Everett cast a cold glance over, emitting an intimidating chill.
The assistant instantly became quiet as a chicken, not daring to make a sound.
Looking at that red exclamation mark, Elliot Everett’s lips tightened, his expression extremely serious.
The little heartless one, actually blocked him!
