“Quickly fetch the first-aid kit!” Lucy immediately ordered.
Calmly and steadily, she quickly walked to the president’s office.
Charlotte’s heart thumped wildly in her chest. She wanted to see what happened but could only wait.
Besides, if she went there, she might make things worse for Hector.
“Mr. Sterling, you are leaving already? I have a first-aid kit with me. I’m sorry for Mr. Nacht’s behavior. He is not in a good mood today. Let me send you to the hospital...” Lucy trailed on.
“It’s okay.” Hector turned a corner and disappeared into the restroom.
“Owen, this is the first-aid kit. There is some medicine in it.” Placing the box in Owen’s hands, Lucy continued, “Maybe you can use it?”
“Thank you.” The other party took the kit and said, “I will take care of it. You should get back to work.”
Nodding, Lucy returned to her desk and instructed the other secretaries, “I want all of you to be busy with work. When Mr. Sterling comes out, don’t stare at him.”
“Okay.” The secretaries had common sense and understood that he left the president’s office because of his pride. The more they stared at him, the more embarrassed he would feel.
While at her desk, Charlotte was frowning and felt uncomfortable. She did not understand why Hector had to give in to Zachary’s requests and bow down to him when the Sterlings were so well-off.
Isn’t it better for him to manage his own business?
Is Zachary the only client in the world?
At that moment, the injured man emerged from the restroom with a handkerchief covering his forehead. Owen followed behind him.
Charlotte could not help but steal a glance. His forehead was still bleeding, and his white shirt was soaked with blood. He looked miserable.
Feeling bad, she clasped her hands together tightly. All she wanted to do was to show concern, but she did not dare to.
Till Hector entered the elevator, she did not make a move. However, she caught him raising his head and looking at her with bloodshot eyes, along with an inexplicable expression.
Her heart ached and tears welled up in her eyes.
Finally, Hector left as the elevator door closed.
Charlotte lowered her head, overwhelmed.
“Charlotte, go to the president’s office with Dani to clean up,” Lucy ordered.
“Huh? I...” Danielle trembled in fear. “Ms. Wright, I’m afraid...”
