It was nothing short of breaking news!
If this got out, the entire company would lose their minds in an explosion of gossip!
The assistant fought to keep his excitement in check, pulled out his phone, and started digging into Jolie’s situation.
In less than ten minutes, he returned, his expression serious as he knocked on Gavin’s office door.
“Mr. Cooper, I’ve got an update. Miss Quin is currently at the Quin family home. I also found out she’s booked on a flight tomorrow morning at 8 a.m. to Montara for a year-long program.”
Gavin, who had been reviewing documents, looked up sharply, his brows furrowing. “Studying abroad?”
“Yes, that’s correct,” the assistant confirmed. “The Quins booked her ticket before she was even discharged from the hospital.”
Such a rushed departure—why the urgency?
The assistant glanced at Gavin’s unreadable expression and cautiously asked, “Mr. Cooper, should I dig further? Maybe find out the reason for her trip?”
“No need,” Gavin replied coolly, before turning his attention back to his work.
The assistant exited, but his curiosity burned hotter than ever.
Mr. Cooper wasn’t intrigued? Really?
Because he certainly was!
Unfortunately, without Gavin’s orders, he couldn’t investigate further.
…
As night fell, the city’s lights glittered like stars, but the villa district remained serene and quiet. Jolie stood on her balcony, gazing at the night sky. Her eyes lingered on the scattered stars, her heart heavy with an indescribable weight.
A soft knock broke her thoughts.
She turned, her voice calm. “Come in.”
The door opened quietly, and a maid stepped inside, balancing a tray of fruit.
“Miss Jolie,” the maid said softly, approaching her. Then, with a subtle movement, she handed Jolie a phone.
