Errr…
It was obvious that Evan wanted John to be the one to bring Tussaud back.
In other words, finding a translator for the company had become John’s responsibility.
That way, even if Nicole were being asked to return to the company, it wouldn’t be Evan’s doing. John would be the one who had brought her back. What a brilliant way for boss to preserve his dignity!
But Mr. Seet, does it not prick your conscience to get another person to sort out your mess! Argh!
“Go ahead and get it done!”
“Errr… “
“Is there a problem?” Evan cocked his eyebrows and asked in a cold tone.
“Oh, no. No problem at all,” John had no choice but to give in begrudgingly.
John hung his head in defeat as he left Evan’s office and let out a bitter laugh. Just then, he suddenly remembered that Sophia’s intention was for Evan to bring Tussaud back personally.
He rang Sophia immediately.
After Sophia heard John’s grievances, the corners of her lips curled up into a smile. Shirking responsibility, eh? Seems exactly like what my son would do.
Hmm, as the president’s assistant, John should also share the president’s burdens. Otherwise, what’s the point of hiring assistants?
“What should we do next, Mrs. Seet?”
“Just go and bring her back!”
“Errr… me?”
“Yup, you’re the president’s assistant, you should… “
John let out a heavy sigh after Sophia finished speaking and decided to do according to her wishes. If Mr. Seet knew what I have done, I wonder how mad he would be!
At that moment, John only had one thought in his mind, It’s not easy to be a president’s assistant! However, it’s arduous to be President Seet’s assistant!
To be…
Thoughts were running wild in John’s head when he decided to stop thinking about it as it was more important for him to complete the task he was entrusted with.
He took out his phone and dialed Nicole’s number while walking out of the building.
Nicole was on her way to pick up her kids when she heard her phone ring.
When she saw John’s number flashing on the caller ID, it was as though Evan’s detestable face was flashing in front of her.
Nicole frowned and ignored the call.
Call all you want but I’m definitely not answering!
After the first call went unanswered, John tried calling a second time but Nicole continued to ignore it.
