Chapter 529
“No way,” the vice president thought to himself.
“Did Avery Tate leave?”
He took a deep breath, then knocked on the open door to Elliot’s office.
Elliot looked up, saw who it was, then immediately said, “Come in and shut the door.”
The vice president was terrified!Elliot’s tone was no different than usual, but there was something scary about the way he said the words “come in and shut the door”.The vice president timidly walked into the door and closed the door behinde8 him.
“Where’s Miss Tate, Sir?”
Elliot pushed the file he was working on aside, then said coldly, “Do you need to talk to her about something?” He paused, then continued ominously, “You scared her off.”
The vice president’s back broke into a cold sweat.
“I’m so sorry, Sir! I’ll go and apologize to Miss Tate right away!”
Elliot’s brows furrowed tightly as he asked, “Don’t you think you’ve embarrassed her enough?
The vice president humbly hung his head. His face said, “Do what you want with me.”
“I don’t want a word of this going out!” Elliot snapped.
The vice president nodded furiously and said, “Don’t worry! I won’t say a word!”
“I’ve still got some work to do. Bring the others to come see me in thirty minutes.” Elliot’s tone returned to its usual calm.
The vice president let out an internal sigh of relief.
“It looks like the boss really is in a great mood today!” he thought.
Avery drove her car aimlessly on the road.
She had yet to calm down from her earlier fright.
How humiliating!She never dreamed of anything like that happening in her life.
