Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 959

After finishing the call with Atlas, I glanced at the precious stone and carefully placed it in the safe in my office.

I didn’t care much for money, but I couldn't just leave a priceless gem that was worth billions lying on my desk, could I? To those who didn’t know, it was just an ugly rock that clashed with my office decor. To those who did know, it might seem like I was showing off.

Honestly, I wished I could return it. Accepting such a valuable gift without reason didn't sit well with me.

I looked at the small glass bottle, remembering Atlas's words. I hesitated for a moment, then placed it back in my bag. One thing was certain—it wasn't an ordinary item.

At noon, we all went to the second floor of the building for our working lunch.

In the evening, while at work, I happened to encounter Adelaide Mcclain.

It wasn't a deliberate encounter, but a 'coincidental' one.

Before that, Carol had come to my office and mentioned that the girl didn’t look as good as her resume.

And I understood what she meant.

"Will you see her?" she asked me.

"There’s no need for that. Just keep her under your watch for now and evaluate her," I instructed. "Tell her about our rules, regulations, and professional ethics that she needs to follow. We should keep any important documents from her for now."

Precautions were necessary. I had mastered the art of being cautious.

Carol understood my meaning. "Alright."

I chose not to meet her because she was just an ordinary employee, and I didn't need to engage with every recruit. I wasn't fond of how she had come to us, either.

I didn’t expect her to take the initiative to come to me.

Hana was in my office, and we were discussing a few interior design proposals.

My impression of Hana had always been positive. For some reason, I had always felt close to her since the day we met.

At that moment, Adelaide knocked on my office door and entered with a tray that held two cups of coffee.

The moment she walked in, I could tell she was Adelaide.
