Chapter 337

What’s there to be afraid of? We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it.”

Mia Carter gave Stella Lewis a reassuring look.

Across the lobby, Julian Cole limped toward them, rubbing his hip and glaring at Stella.

Ms. Carter, Mr. Henderson and the young Mr. Henderson are waiting for you.”

His tone wasn’t outright hostile, but he sounded exactly like the loyal lackey he was.

Stella rolled her eyes.

After working together for a few days, her initial crush on Julian had completely evaporated.

I already told Ms. Carter. Stand aside and stop blocking the way.” She gave Julian another shove.

ulian straightened his back and refused to budge.

Stella didn’t hesitate. She lifted her foot and stomped hard on his toes.

Ow-!”

ulian hopped on one foot, clutching his toes. “You Southern women are so crude and arrogant!”

Stella ignored him and shielded Mia as they entered the building.

The atmosphere inside the company was tense. Everyone was on edge.

Yesterday, the executives had gathered to condemn Mia, only for her to skip out on them. A group of powerful nen had been left staring at each other, effectively slapped in the face by thin air.

When the gods fight, it’s the mortals who suffer. Every executive was fuming, and the employees had become heir punching bags.

Because of the chaos, the staff didn’t even know if they should greet Mia when they saw her.

Mia walked straight to the elevator without looking left or right. When she reached the top floor and stepped out, she headed directly for her office.

However, Winston Henderson blocked her path at the door.

‘Ms. Carter, the executives are waiting for you in the conference room. Colin is here, too.”

He held his arm out, physically barring her from entering her own office.

Mia stopped, her brows knitting together slightly.

“I thought you weren’t coming in today either, Ms. Carter,” Winston sneered, his voice dripping with

passive-aggressiveness. “Running away won’t solve anything. You didn’t get to this position by being ignorant of

how things work, did you?”

Mia looked at him coldly.

‘I understand. Since the department heads are so eager to see me, I’ll go have a look.”

She handed her bag to Stella. “Have the secretarial staff prepare some tea and bring it to the conference room. I wouldn’t want anyone to go thirsty.”

Stella looked worried. “Ms. Carter…”

Just do it, Mia said simply before turning toward the conference room.

The massive room was packed.

Executives from various departments sat on either side of the long table. At the far end, in the center seat, sat

Colin Henderson.

Colin was in his early thirties and was considered somewhat successful in business circles. If he wasn’t so incredibly ugly, he’d probably have a family by now. As it was, he hadn’t even found a wife.

“Ms. Carter, this is Colin Henderson,” Winston introduced him.

Mia took the seat at the head of the table, her back straight and legs crossed.

She met Colin’s gaze across the long table for a few seconds.

Winston spoke again, emphasizing the point. “Colin is the son of Mr. Henderson, the director.”
