Mr. Powell Is Hunting for His Wife novel Chapter 54

“I’m sorry, Mr. Gibson.” Diana’s voice was extremely soft, almost making Harper’s legs weakened.

Harper couldn’t help but shiver. “Anna, could you speak in your normal tone, please? I can’t stand it...”

In his opinion, Diana had an ambiguous relationship with Mr. Powell.

If Anna kept speaking to him ambiguously and Mr. Powell found it out, Harper was afraid that Mr. Powell would fire him.

Not to mention others, in the incident that happened this afternoon, Mr. Powell was obviously partial to Anna. If they looked into the matter, probably Ashley wouldn’t have lost so fast. However, Mr. Powell didn’t send anyone to investigate and instead he compared their perfumes.

How could Ashley be comparable to Anna in terms of the blending skills?

Hence, she suffered a big defeat.

Diana turned around and put her finger on her lips to hint at Austin and Emily, who were sitting in the backseat, to keep silent. Then she continued, “Mr. Gibson, could you please send my message to Mr. Powell? I’m not interested in becoming the manager of the perfume department at all. I only want to be his assistant. Would it work?”

It would be quite convenient for her to obtain Mirabelle’s whereabouts on time if she stayed to be Brooklyn’s assistant.

If she were transferred to the perfume department, how would she be able to get Mirabelle’s information?

She didn’t work here for the money.

Upon hearing her request, Harper was unable to answer her for a moment. Others always wanted to get promoted and raised in salary. He wondered why Anna wanted to be Mr. Powell’s assistant s much.

Probably she fell in love with Mr. Powell at the first sight, didn’t she?

For the sake that he had a good relationship with Diana, Harper reminded her calmly, “Anna, I must tell you one thing -- Mr. Powell has already had a fiancée. It’s not good for you to do so.”

Diana slightly rolled her eyes.

How come all others felt that she must like Brooklyn?

“Mr. Gibson, I want to be Mr. Powell’s assistant not because I love him, but because he appreciates my blending skills,” Diana lied expressionlessly.

Harper was speechless.

He had never seen a person who could make her secret admiration so high-sounding.

“All right. I’ll pass your message to Mr. Powell.”

“Thank you so much, Mr. Gibson. I’ll treat you for dinner when you are free.”

Harper shook his head immediately. He didn’t want to be fired by Brooklyn now.

“Not necessary, Anna. Thank you, though.”

Harper hung up the phone and passed Diana’s message to Brooklyn.

Brooklyn frowned slightly.

“Did she truly say that?”

Harper nodded.

He was quite worried. As an assistant and secretary to Mr. Powell, he didn’t think he should get involved in his boss’ personal life.

However...

“Mr. Powell, I wonder if Anna has a crush on you... If Mrs. Moss and Mrs. Powell knew it, probably Anna couldn’t stay in Sliwell City at all.”

Those women from rich families had a lot of cruel means.

Since Harper worked for Brooklyn, he had seen a lot of rich women persecuting women with no background.

Brooklyn had a meaningful smile on his face.

Did Anna have a crush on him?

From the way Anna looked at him, Brooklyn didn’t see any love. She pretended to be quite mature, but he guessed that probably she had never fallen in love before.

Brooklyn’s slender fingers slowly knocked on the desk. He realized that Anna had her purpose to stay by his side.

“Mr. Powell, what do you think about it...”

Harper’s voice brought Brooklyn back to his senses.

“Let her stay,” Brooklyn uttered a few words.
