Corey was taken aback momentarily and immediately understood what Colbert meant. He sighed dejectedly, "Those guys are stupid, and they messed things up. Ms. Stanford refunded the deposit and refused to take their jobs."
"Those good-for-nothings!"
Colbert said coldly.
Knock knock...
Suddenly, there was a knock on the office door.
Colbert raised his eyes, gazing at the person who entered the office. It was Derek.
He stood up unhurriedly and said, "Uncle?"
Corey turned around. When he saw Derek, he nodded and bowed. "Mr. Derek Steele, you are here. I'm going first."
Corey left them to have a chat.
Derek nodded but said nothing.
Corey walked out of the office and closed the door.
Now left one man standing and the other sitting in the office. They stared at each other, their deep and complicated gazes mixed with too many unpredictable feelings.
Colbert said, "Uncle, if you have something to say, you may as well say it."
He knew Derek too well. Derek would not come if he did not want to ask for something.
