Instead of chatting aimlessly with him here, I'd rather go straight to the design institute. I could meet Joyce there and discuss the wedding arrangements with her directly, and I could also see Hana. I hadn't seen her since my father was rescued.
I also had to visit the Reese family and the little one at noon. It had been too long since I had last seen that child; I couldn't neglect them.
The Reese family had worked tirelessly to ensure my safety at the construction site, so of course I had to go see the child. Besides, I really missed the little guy.
I decided to leave immediately, which surprised Ryan. "Why are you leaving?"
"Do you have anything else to do? If we can't communicate, then there's no point wasting time." I looked at him unapologetically.
Ryan quickly stood up from his chair. "I really don't understand. Is this your wedding or mine? Why are you so nervous?"
"Thank goodness I didn't marry you. It wouldn't have lasted long." I glanced at him in disdain, grabbed my bag, and left.
I could hear him muttering behind me. "If you had married me, you wouldn't have this attitude!"
I rolled my eyes and silently cursed him in my heart. What a jerk! He was so stubborn!
Carol saw me striding out of the office and hurried over. "Where are you going, Chloe?"
"I'm going to the design institute." I responded to Carol's question while continuing to walk toward the elevator and press the button.
Carol immediately stood next to me. "Let me accompany you. I'll drive!"
I looked at her, about to refuse, but she quickly said, "I haven't seen you in forever. Don't say no!"
I sighed and retracted what I was about to say. It was true; I hadn't been in the office for a long time.
"I’m lonely!" Carol complained. "I’ll go wherever you go today. I'll also tell you all about the trivial things that happened. It won’t be a waste of time."
"She brought it upon herself. Who is she trying to blame?" I muttered. "Besides, we've already clarified this matter face to face. Why is she still bothering us?"
"People like that are twisted; they can't stand seeing someone else happy. Of course they’d be angry that Eleanor’s doing so well here," Carol said angrily.
If that was the case, then it seemed like Eleanor would have a difficult time.
I had confronted this woman before. She had associated with someone as rotten as Liora, so it was clear that she was not a good person.
We had just kicked out Timberlux. She was probably holding Eleanor responsible for that, which made sense.

This story would be interesting if there weren't so many garbled paragraphs. Half sentences and missed paragraphs. It's too much, give us a proper story. I'm done reading...
