Love at first sight novel (Judith Cooper) novel Chapter 1013

Chapter 1013

Complying with her husband’s request, Mrs. Newman reluctantly put a gift together.

She then saw Mr. Newman out the door.

Once Mr. Newman was gone, Mrs. Newman murmured to herself, “She’s just a country bumpkin. I doubt Mr. York will love her forever. The girl’s just a breath of fresh air to Mr. York for now. The country bumpkin won’t be the lady of the house for long once he’s bored of her.”

Half an hour later, Zachary got a call through the intercom. Mr. Chaplin relayed Mr. Newman’s wishes to meet.

“Mr. Newman, our CEO will see you upstairs.”

Mr. Newman rose to his feet and thanked the receptionist before following the receptionist with a gift in hand.

The absence of Mr. Newman’s bodyguards was to show Zachary that he came in peace.

In the CEO’s office, Zachary put Mr. Chaplin’s call down and dialed the intercom to reach Callum. Zachary said, “Come to my office, Callum.”

“Zack.”

Callum closed the door behind him and asked, “What’s the matter?”
