Chapter 125 Busy Forgetting Your Grandma!
Jennifer’s eyes flickered. She looked at Albert thinking he would side her, but he didn’t. She blurted out a compliant out of resentment, “Fine! It’s just an apology. I’ll go then!”
After speaking, she went to Elisa’s office.
She was unsure but she knocked on Elisa’s door anyway.
Elisa looked up and responded, “Come in.”
Deep down in Jennifer’s heart, she was flustered, but she tried her best to pull herself together before she entered Elisa’s office.
Charli was not around, only Elisa was in the office. She was sitting in front of the computer, no idea what she was doing. She looked like her normal self when she realized it was Jennifer, “What’s up?”
She sounded neutral and calm. Elisa didn’t snub Jennifer for her misconduct against her prior to this.
But Elisa had always been this calm and neutral. She wasn’t pretentious.
Jennifer breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Then, she faltered and said, “I… I’m here to apologize.”
Elisa raised her brow. And before she could speak, Jennifer was already apologizing to her, “I was wrong for belittling you before. I hope you…you would forgive me.”
Elisa studied her with unwavering attention, and then she responded, “I didn’t take your words to heart. I won’t pursue responsibility as long as you work hard in this firm.”
Jennifer was surprised to hear Elisa’s response, “Really?”
“Of course.” Elisa looked indifferent, “Is there anything else?”
Jennifer was stunned. She thought Elisa would give her an earful, but she was wrong.
The serenity and peace in the air prompted her back to reality. She shook her head awkwardly, “No… no more.”
Elisa nodded and carried on with her work without saying a word.
Jennifer looked at Elisa for a while. She left the office upon confirming that Elisa really didn’t mean to pursue her fault.
When she got to the door, she was relieved that Elisa had forgiven her.
The other lawyers saw the smile on her lips and knew that Elisa didn’t shame her in the office. Olivia smiled, “Look! Aren’t you feeling better now?”
Jennifer nodded agreeably, “Now that you mention, I do feel much better indeed!”
…
The following two days were easy and calm.
Sheena’s father dissolved the marriage agreement with the Helm family and retweeted the announcement. The matter had finally come to an optimistic end.
And Renee had disappeared after sorting out the matter. Although Elisa was confused, she respected Renee’s will and didn’t look for her.
Time was ticking. Julia’s birthday was around the corner.
Elisa had already prepared a gift for her. She gave Julia a call on the eve of her birthday.
Julia happily answered the call, “I thought you’ve forgotten grandma, my naughty girl!”
Elisa defended herself, “How could I ever forget grandma? It’s just that I’ve been busy lately…”
“Hmph, you’ve been busy forgetting your grandma!”
“Of course not, Grandma. I’ll find you right away. Are you home?”
“Yes, yes. Grandma is always home! I’m always waiting for you! When will you arrive?”
Elisa smiled, “I’ll be there in one and a half hours.”
“Okay, then grandma is anticipating you. Have lunch here today!”
Elisa was hesitant for a moment, but she quickly said with a smile, “Sure.”
After hanging up the phone, Elisa went to the Wickam Manor with the gift.
Although…
She was unwilling to step foot into the Wickam Manor she had to go because there was someone who was like family to her. Someone whom she endeared and loved.
Just like what Elisa told Julia, she got to Wickam Manor in one and a half hours time.
