Chapter 219
Sensing Maxim’s displeasure, Briana initially wanted to say a few words to lighten the mood, but then she remembered that she hadn’t yet decided whether to give each other another chance, so she lowered her gaze and didn’t speak.
Because they were the only two people in the entire restaurant, the food was served very quickly.
Although Maxim was upset that Briana didn’t want others to see them eating together, he still took the initiative to chat with Briana during the meal.
“Right, what was the main purpose of your business trip to Rosecliff Village?”
Briana swallowed the food in her mouth, her expression nonchalant as she said, “MY Corporation planned to collaborate with the fabric factory in Rosecliff Village, so they sent me to check it out.”
“Didn’t you say you were a cleaner last time? Does your company require cleaners to do this kind of work?”
Briana: “……
After a few seconds of silence, she finally looked up at Maxim and said, “Did you really believe me when I said I was a cleaner?”
“Of course I didn’t believe it, so what exactly you are doing at MY Corporation?”
Briana took a sip of soup, looking calmly at Maxim and said, “You must have already investigated what I do at MY Corporation, haven’t
you?”
When she returned to MY Corporation, she had Melody create a fake employment record for herself. If anyone investigated in the HR department, they could only find that fake information.
Maxim frowned, “You just don’t trust me?”
Ever since he found out that she didn’t like him investigating her
affairs, he had not let Rayan continue the investigation. He would only occasionally ask Rayan to check her location.
Seeing the displeasure in his eyes, Briana’s hand unconsciously tightened around her chopsticks. She murmured, “I’m sorry, I misunderstood you.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t pry into things you don’t want to tell me in the future. After all, everyone has secrets they don’t want to share with others.”
Similarly, he also had some things he couldn’t tell Briana.
Briana felt that Maxim had indeed changed a lot. He never used to consider other people’s feelings, but now he was willing to take care of her emotions.
Thinking of this, Briana chuckled and said, “I was just an ordinary employee at MY Corporation, doing work similar to a secretary, I guess you could say I was an assistant.”
Maxim also knew that Briana didn’t graduate from high school, so this kind of job wasn’t difficult for her.
Thinking about how Briana was always criticized for not graduating from high school, Maxim looked at her with a serious expression and said, “Have you ever thought about finishing high school? It’s not too late for you to go to college at your current age.”
Surprise flashed in Briana’s eyes, then she shook her head and said, “No, a college diploma is of no use to me.”
Briana fell silent for a moment, her gaze becoming indifferent.
“Mr. Yoder, it seems you made a mistake.”
