Chapter 434: There Is One Other Thing I Can Do
With a large pile of files in his hands, Garrett made his way toward Charis’ office in good spirits.
“I heard that I could find Mr. Larson here” When he caught sight of Charis’ assistant standing outside the office, he paused for a few seconds He had just finished meeting up with some business partners. At this time, Seacisco was going to develop a new plot of land. He was planning to talk it over with Brandon first. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Before Charis’ assistant could say a word, the door was opened from the inside. Charis probably didn’t expect Garrett to be standing outside. Embarrassed, she was startled for a few seconds. After that she chose to ignore him and ran away.
“Did the two quarrel inside the office?” Garrett pointed his finger at the door and asked the assistant
“I have no idea, Mr. Harding. If you don’t need anything else, I’ll be on my way now.”
The office just so happened to be soundproof. The assistant didn’t hear a word, Staring at Charis’ back which soon disappeared around the corner, Garrett could guess what was going on. He let out a long sigh and thought that Brandon’s guess should be right at this time. He knocked on the door and proceeded to go inside.
“You’re really heartless! You’ve been friends with Charis for so long. Are you going to really punish her regardless of your friendship? What are you going to do about her?”
e knew that Brandon was always decisive, especially when it came to his own personal interests. When his interests happened to be threatened, he would turn into a ruthless person. Janet should also be a part of his personal interests. With a very unhappy look on his face, Brandon made his way out of Charis’ office and said, “I asked her to resign from the Larson Group.”
Garrett followed him closely behind. After hesitating for a bit, he said, “That might be a good idea. After she’s gone, she may give up on you entirely. I’ve already reminded Charis before, but she’s way too stubborn. Don’t take this matter too seriously. She’s just a girl anyway.”
Brandon shot Garrett a cold glance.
“Janet is also just a girl, and Charis shouldn’t have bullied her like that.”
Garrett rolled his eyes at him and pouted. Fine, Brandon always protected his beloved no matter what.
“How are you and your wife doing? You’ve come to settle things with Charis. I’m guessing you must’ve reconciled with Janet, is that right?” When Garrett heard that Janet had left Seacisco, he became even more worried about the relationship between the two of them.
After all, Brandon had been in bad spirits the past few days. His face was so overcast that the senior executives were too frightened to even speak up during the daily meetings. Brandon suddenly stopped in his tracks and said, “I wanted to discuss this matter with you. Janet has returned, but she still doesn’t believe me.”
Garrett put a finger to his chin and said, “The trust issue can’t be solved in such a short amount of time. What are you going to do next?”
Simply peering down at the leather shoes on his feet, Brandon mulled it over in his head for a while and suddenly smiled.
“I think at least there is one thing I can do.”
Ever since Janet had returned, she had been sitting on the sofa in a complete daze. She really had no idea what to do. She had already let Tiffany know about her resignation from Larson Group. Now she was just a jobless vagabond who didn’t have a lot of savings in her bank account.
After watching TV for a bit, she began to swipe through her cell phone. Soon after, she felt bored again, so she went to cook something
But for whom?
Who else could it be other than for the master of this house?
Thinking about Brandon, Janet proceeded to put down the cooking utensils in silence,
She didn’t want to cook for that lying man! She angrily stormed back to the living room and then idly Nipped through some fashion magazines, thinking about where she should go in the future and what she should do about her relationship with Ethan. Janet had no idea when Ethan came back because she soon had fallen asleep.
When the smell of delicious food came to her nose, she woke up in a daze and could make out Ethan in the kitchen.
He had tucked in his shirt casually and his tie had not been taken off. Right then, he was wearing a pink floral apron around his waist.
That damn contradictory charm.
Ethan heard her stirring in the living room and guessed that the sleeping beauty on the sofa had just woken up.
He walked out with the steaming seafood risotto, pulled off his apron, squatted in front of Janet, and asked her, “How about we go for wedding dress shop tomorrow? My little lazy princess.”
