After hanging up the call from Lucas, Mary looked through her phone to find the name of William in the contacts.
She texted the message, "Text me back as soon as you receive the message. Hurry up."
No way. She deleted it and sent it back. "Where are you now? Call me back now."
However, it didn't work. Mary repeated sending the message for several times. She typed and deleted the messages. She felt that she had a lot to ask him, but she didn't know where to start.
After struggling for a while, Mary threw away her phone angrily and didn't type the message anymore!
Maybe he would come back tomorrow. Well, sure.
The next day, Mary went to the company early in the morning to pay attention to the latest news. The good thing was that there was no rumor in the company, and the bad thing was that William hadn't come back yet.
She had no choice but to put it off.
Mary had been busy all morning. Mary had no choice but to hold a temporary meeting for the senior officers of the company to explain the current situation and make them prepared. On the other hand, Mary went back and forth to the public relation department to ask them to create more topics to shift the attention, and not to let the reporters pay attention to William.
"Mary?"
It was almost noon. When Mary was about to go back to the CEO's office, she met Victor.
"Victor, why are you here?"
"Come here to sign the contract." "It seems that you are in a hurry. Do you have a lot of things to do?" asked Victor
"Yes, it's a little troublesome." Mary nodded and said, "You go ahead with your work. I'm leaving now."
"Go ahead." Seeing her running into the elevator quickly, Victor smiled.
"Get back to your senses!" Jorge patted him on the shoulder and said, "Stop looking. It's time to go."
"Okay, let's go." Looking at the direction in which Mary left, Victor nodded.
"I heard that the CEO is sick and can't meet everyone." Jorge said, "He didn't show up in the company yesterday."
"Really?" Victor frowned and asked, "What kind of illness is so serious?"
"I don't know." Jorge shook his head and said, "But it seems that the senior officers of the company are restless."
Victor didn't speak for a long time. He took a few steps and said, "Do you believe that William is sick?"
"Ha ha," Jorge laughed. "So what if I don't believe it? It's none of our business. Just leave it alone."
Victor turned his head and took a deep look at Jorge. Jorge also gave him a meaningful smile and said, "You know what I mean."
When Mary returned to Floor 32, Jane saw her tired face and was about to persuade her to have a rest and have lunch, but she saw Kevin rushing in.
"Mary... Something bad is happening." Kevin gasped and said.
Again?! As soon as Kevin rushed in, something bad must have happened.
"What's wrong?" Mary frowned.
"Something happened to the construction site."
"What happened?"
"The land project developed by our company not long ago has reached the stage of tearing down. It was going well, but something bad happened today." Kevin said with a grim face, "There is one person who doesn't want to tear down. The whole family guarded the house, but the forklift pushed the house to the ground all of a sudden. They are all buried underground."
"What? !" Mary was very scared and asked quickly, "Are you hurt? !"
"The middle-aged couple were slightly injured, and the children and the elderly were seriously injured. They have been sent to the emergency room." Kevin continued, "The staff of the general manager office has rushed to the hospital..."
"I will go there too!" "I have to go to the hospital too." Mary interrupted Kevin and said.
"No way, Sister Mary." Jane stopped her in a hurry. "Their family must be very excited now. If you go there, you may suffer losses!"
"Yes, Mary." Kevin also persuaded, "You'd better not go now."
"No, I can't," said Mary, shaking her head. "It's not that I'm flaunting my superiority, but that I have to go. It's related to the company's credibility, and I have to go for both public and private reasons."
"Then I'll go with you." Said Kevin.
"Me too!" Jane said anxiously.
"Jane, don't go there. Just stay here and wait for me. Call me if anything happens, okay?" Said Mary.
"Okay." Jane nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, Sister Mary."
The three of them came downstairs. Jane saw Mary and Kevin off. When she was about to go back, she was stopped.
"Hello, beautiful lady."
"Oh my God!" Jane turned around and screamed, "Vi... Victor!"
"Yes, I am." Victor smiled at her and winked at her "Beautiful lady, may I ask you a question?"
"Okay, please." Jane's eyes turned red and she kept nodding.
"Where is she going, Mary?" Victor smiled like a spring breeze.
Jorge raised his eyebrows and thought, 'Oh, my God. Victor has already mastered the handsome man trick.'
"Going to the hospital." Jane said shyly, "Something happened in the construction site. Sister Mary went to comfort their family."
Victor frowned and said to Jorge, "You can go back first. I have to follow her."
"Mind your own business!" Jorge grabbed his arm.
"For the last time." Victor broke free from Jorge's grip and strode away.
"Victor, can you explain why you are here?"
"What's the relationship between Victor and the CEO's wife?"
"Who was Victor calling just now?"
The crowd made way for Victor automatically, trying to create a topic for him and peace. At the same time, they stood aside and kept asking questions. With a cold face, Victor quickly ran to the peace of the road and pulled her up with [王特助].
"Are you okay?" Asked Victor.
"I'm OK." Mary smiled.
When the reporters saw this scene, they were even more excited. They surrounded them at once. And the light in their eyes made them even angrier.
"Stop shooting!" Kevin got angry. He grabbed the camera nearest to him and threw it to the ground. "Stop shooting!"
"Damn it... What? Do you want to hit me? !" The reporter got angry at once.
"What do I want to do? I'm going to hit you!"
Kevin was 1.8 meter tall and he was not afraid at all. He was about to fight with the reporter.
"Madam!"
"Kevin!"
Several people rushed out of the hospital gate at once. It turned out that they were from the general manager's office. When they heard that they were surrounded by reporters at the gate, they hurriedly came out to rescue. They didn't expect the situation to be so bad.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" All the security guards of the company rushed over and pulled Kevin away from the reporter.
"All right, all right. There's a misunderstanding," a manager from AJ Group stood out and said, "If you have any questions, just ask me. Don't make things difficult for our Madam."
"Let's go, Kevin." Seeing that someone had helped them out, Mary pulled Kevin's sleeve and hinted him, "Don't make trouble. Let's go in first."
"They have gone too far!" Kevin] rolled up his sleeves, still angry.
"Don't mind them." Victor pressed his shoulder and the three people came into the hospital under the protection of the security guards.
However, the reporters behind them didn't stop their cameras. They kept flashing between Mary and Victor.
It was really a hot topic that the wife of the CEO had an affair with an actor of his company!
"Mary, are you okay?" Kevin asked.
"I'm all right."
"Your clothes are almost broken. How could you say that you are all right?" Victor frowned and said, "Don't you feel it? Look at your wounds!"
Mary looked at her jeans. They were covered with dust. Her knees were rubbed and her arms were grazed, but she smiled bitterly and said, "I am really injured."
