Chapter 476
For now, going to the Northern Eulast branch was still considered being with SZ Technology, still part of Frank’s team, which was already quite fortunate.
Frank did not deny it. “Aren’t you going to leave?”
“Leaving?” Alan was stunned.
Frank had punished Paulina but hadn’t punished him yet.
Frank glared at him. “This is the last time. If it happens again, don’t wait for me to tell you–just leave on your own.”
“Yes, thank you, Frank!” Alan felt as if he had been pardoned. He got up and looked at Frank. “Don’t worry, I will never betray your trust again.”
Frank lifted his hand lightly. “Get out.”
Alan quickly followed.
Hurrying as best he could, he caught up with Paulina just as she was starting her car to leave. He grabbed her lowered car window. “Paulina, I need to talk to you.”
Paulina turned her face away and wiped her tears. “If you’re going to say something like ‘I should have listened to your advice,‘ please just be quiet.”
“No.”
Alan leaned in, looking at her through the car window. “Paulina, I won’t sleep with anyone else. I’ll wait for you to come back.”
Returning to Frank’s side was impossible, but as long as she performed well and made no more mistakes, it was possible she could be reassigned back to the country.
Paulina sneered. “Wait for me to come back? If you were really affectionate, why won’t you go to the Northern Eulast branch to find me?”
Alan frowned. “Someone needs to stay by Frank’s side.”
Jane had an evening engagement with clients and left after dropping me off downstairs at my apartment.
I went upstairs alone and found an aunt waiting outside my door, carrying two large
eco–friendly bags filled with fruits, vegetables, meat, and eggs.
Chapter 476
A lady quickly approached. “Are you Ms. Wilson?”
“Yes, I am,”
I was slightly taken aback. “And you are?”
“I’m Julie. Mr. Smith asked me to come and take care of you.” Julie looked very kind and friendly, Perhaps she was worried that I might not be used to it, she added, ” Don’t worry, I won’t disturb you. I’ll just cook the meals and clean up before I leave.”
I realized what was going on. “So Frank sent you?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Julie smiled warmly, “Frank, was concerned about you. His voice sounded off when he called me.”
It was clear that Julie was an old acquaintance of the Smith family and was very familiar with Frank.
As I opened the door, I said, “Please come in. I’ll record your fingerprint later so that it’s convenient for you to come and go.”
Once Julie entered, she went straight to the kitchen and started working methodically.
I took a shower in the bedroom. In this hot weather, just being outside for a few minutes made me feel sticky.
After showering, while I was doing my skincare routine, I picked up my phone and
called Frank.
He answered quickly, his voice slightly raised. “Yes?”
But it carried an unspoken intimacy.
I couldn’t help but smile, shaking off the earlier gloomy mood. “Thank you, Frank.”
He laughed. “For what?”
“For Julie.”
“Really want to thank me?”
I lightly asked in return, “Do I seem like a hypocritical person to you?”
