After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 628

Chapter 628 Sorry, You Misunderstand Me

Manuel drove to work after having breakfast.

It was the first time that he had been so nervous.

He parked the car in the garage and took a deep breath before getting off the car.

When he walked into the Phillips Bank building, everyone could not help staring at him.

On the one hand, he was a senior leader. On the other hand, he was a real looker.

Manuel went into his office, and Callie walked forward, "Good morning, Mr Johnson."

Manuel nodded and looked at the desk on the side.

Callie said immediately, "Miss Phillips hasn't arrived yet. Do you want me to call and ask her?"

"No." Manuel said, "Please make me a cup of coffee and then show me the progress of Botter Group."

"OK."

Before that, Callie had seen pictures of his outfit in some private chat groups. With Manuel standing in front of her, she found him even more stunning than the pictures. Something had changed in him. And at the thought of seeing Manuel walk Susan into her apartment, Callie couldn't help smiling.

Susan seldom came late but she hadn't arrived yet today. Besides, looking at Manuel's expression just now, she found that he was very considerate and spoiled to Susan. Observing all these signs, Callie got excited about her discovery that they were making a progress in their relationship.

Manuel sat in the office working and looked a little absent-minded.

While drinking the coffee, he had gotten his mind on Susan.

He was thinking about whether Susan was on her way and whether she would come to his office first when she arrived.

This was the first time that he was distracted at work and even on pins and needles.

He thought for a while and called Callie, "Let Susan come in. There is something she needs to do."

"Mr Johnson, Miss Phillips hasn't arrived yet."

It had been 10 o'clock.

Manuel was kind of confused.

"Do you want me to call her?" asked Callie.

"She slept too late last night. Let her sleep more." Manuel said casually.

It sounded strange after he said it.

"Yes. She was too tired last night. Let her sleep." Said Callie.

Manuel didn't say anything and hung up the phone.

There went the morning but Susan didn't show up in the company.

In the afternoon, Manuel found he could not focus on work because of Susan.

He thought about the way Susan smiled all the time. He felt thirsty and had drunk several cups of coffee. Finally, he couldn't bear it and called her.

And he pretended to be cold and serious when he picked up the phone.

When the phone was answered, Susan didn't speak.

"It's too late. Why don't you come to work?"

She was silent.

Manuel thought his tone might be too serious. After all, he should be gentler since they just opened their hearts. But his tone was much less horrible than those before and it was just different from the way he treated Susan before.
