My Ex-Wife Is A Big Shot In Disguise novel Chapter 218

No one dared to ask, and there was no need to.

If their boss was in a good mood, their lives would be easier. They couldn't wait for the boss to smile so happily every day.

Sergio did not stay in the meeting room for long.

When Sergio received the news from Madison that she had arrived, he got up from his chair, took his phone, and quietly left with a smile. He threw the project reflection to John.

However, no matter how quiet Sergio tried to be, he was still the big boss. He could not help but attract the attention of many, including John.

John coughed lightly and rapped on the table to draw everyone's attention back. "Keep going."

Everyone turned their attention back. The meeting continued.

John's thoughts drifted.

His father had always cared about his image when he was outside. He always had a dark expression even when he was in a somewhat serious situation. Other than his mother coming to the company to visit him, Sergio had never lost his composure.

However, since his mother's health deteriorated, she rarely came out of the family residence, let alone came to the company to see his father.

If it wasn't his mother...

John thought of another possibility, and his expression suddenly softened. He ignored the employees still talking about the PowerPoint presentation and got up. "That's all for today's meeting. Each group can keep records of the meeting. We will find time to continue tomorrow. Also, try not to work overtime tonight. If there's anything else, deal with it in time or tomorrow."

Then, John took his phone and left.

Everyone in the conference room looked at each other.

Those who weren't curious had already left with their laptops. They were all smiles as they were glad they did not have to work overtime today and could go back early to sleep.

Those who were curious asked John's assistant, Serena Bright, in a low voice, "Miss Bright, is there any good news today? Why did Mr. Daves leave without even finishing the meeting? He even told us not to work overtime. It's amazing!"

Serena was helping John to pack up the laptop and documents on the table. When she heard that, she replied coldly without raising her head, "It's Mr. Daves's private matter. How would I know?"

One of them did not give up. "Tsk. Who doesn't know that you have been with Mr. Daves for seven years, Miss Bright? You have been with him since he took over the company. If you don't know, who knows?"

The teasing words made Serena frown slightly.

Serena carried the laptop and looked up at the person coldly. "Since you're so curious, why don't you ask Mr. Daves directly? You're not as diligent about work as you are about Mr. Daves's private matters."

With that, Serena left, not even bothering to look at the latter.

"What's there to be arrogant about? She's been with Mr. Daves for so many years, but I've never seen Mr. Daves take notice of her. She's just a lousy assistant, not his wife. Why is she so arrogant? She can't be the CEO's wife even if she wanted. She's also hot-tempered. When Mr. Daves marries some rich family's daughter, let's see if she won't be sent packing!" the man cursed as he packed up his stuff.

At the door, Serena lowered her gaze slightly. Her expression was calm, and no one could tell what she was feeling.

Serena did not leave immediately. Instead, she turned around and returned to the meeting room. "Mr. Hamish, why didn't you say this in front of me just now? No matter how bad my temper is, I've been working for Mr. Daves for seven years. What about you? How long have you been in the company? What have you achieved? If you leave before me one day, do you think it's more embarrassing for me, a lousy assistant who can't be the wife of the CEO, or for you, an overseas graduate?"

Serena smiled at the man and left.

As for the string of curses coming from behind her, Serena was no longer interested in listening.

Outside the office of the CEO of the Quadmart Group, the arrival of Madison and Charlie made it suddenly lively. They kept going on about how cute children were.

When others praised him, Madison would chime in, too. Charlie blushed furiously.

Charlie was already shy and did not like to talk. He was currently surrounded by many beautiful ladies praising him. He felt at a loss. Charlie hid behind Madison and did not dare to speak.
