After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 647

Chapter 647 Susan Overheard Henry’s Conspiracy

The news didn't make a stir. People simply read it and forgot about it soon. But, it caused some inner riots in Phillips Bank. Now, the thing was exposed, leaving the staff wondering how the senior managers were going to deal with it.

It was hardly possible for Manuel to reach his primary goal. But it was still unknown if the company would bow to the pressure and gossip and make Manuel quit. People could judge these from the current situation.

As the central figure in this event, Manuel didn't act like one. Instead, he clocked out on time and left calmly while the other employees were watching. So, more people joined the discussion and guessed what the catch was! Reasonably, he should keep up appearances, which at least would be one good reason for the senior managers to make him stay.

Susan held a low position in the company and she'd joined some staff chat groups. That was how she read their comments on Manuel, most of which were positive. Quite a few of them thought it was a pity that Manuel would be fired. Undoubtedly, the majority of these people were female. Susan bet they must have been attracted by Manuel's charm.

But, to be fair and square, she also thought it was a pity if Manuel would be fired. She didn't believe her father was so stupid as to make Manuel quit. Maybe Manuel thought the same way and that was why he took it lightly. Susan suddenly thought of something and realized it was time to get off work.

"I'm off. Wanna go with me?" she texted Henry. That was how they communicated in the past two weeks. Things between them were way too dry and dull. Passion had worn off. It seemed they were back together only because they thought they should be.

"I'll work overtime today. Take care. I'll bring you night snacks." Henry texted back.

"OK. See you later."

"OK."

Susan turned off the computer and left the office. She was bored to death in the car, wondering what she was going to do with the long night. She looked out of the window and saw the sun still glowing in the sky, thinking that she would have dinner alone again.

Then she phoned Hannah, "Hi Hannah. Wanna dine out tonight?"

"Oh, sorry, Susan. I've got a plan tonight."

"Are you gonna work extra hours?"

"Nope."

"Then why did you stand me up?"

"It's Oscar's birthday. We'll celebrate."

"I'm coming over to join you guys." Said Susan immediately.

"Sorry, Susan. I'm afraid not!" rejected Hannah.

"Hannah! Why not!" said Susan angrily and thought she had abandoned her for Oscar.

"Not tonight."

"Aren't we friends?" Susan got mad and snapped.

"How about tomorrow? Come over to my place. I'll tell Max to cook your favourite dishes."

"What kind of friend are you? Bye."

"Hello...."

Susan hung up the phone abruptly and was pissed off. She couldn't accept the fact that Hannah had turned her down for Oscar, and felt she had been abandoned by the whole world.

She thought about it and dialled another number, "Dad."

"Susan? What's up?" answered Edward surprisingly.

"I'll go home for dinner tonight. Tell the servant to cook some of my favourite food."

"I'll be out tonight." Said Edward frankly.
