Chapter 107
Rebecca had just arrived, dressed in a denim outfit, her hair in a
high ponytail, with a pair of sunglasses on, looking cool and
stylish.
Madeleine ran over to her. “I told Roderick we’re going shopping
and out to eat, so if he asks, don’t blow our cover.”
။
“Got it.”
Behind her sunglasses, Rebecca rolled her eyes.
She thought she must be crazy, agreeing to go with her to some
mental hospital to visit Zoe instead of sleeping in on a
weekend.
Crazy, just crazy. This whole world has gone mad.
Shortly after Madeleine left, Gerry called, saying the ring
Roderick had re–ordered from the Malikanian artisan had
arrived.
“I’ve already arranged for someone to deliver it to you.”
After saying that, Gerry had an idea. “Sir, do you need me to
Chapter 107
book a restaurant for you?”
“A restaurant?”
“Aren’t you planning to give your wife the ring? You can’t just hand it over plainly.”
As a competent executive assistant, Gerry’s greatest strength
was thinking ahead.
Helping the CEO solve his problems was never just empty talk
for him.
Roderick raised an eyebrow, thinking Gerry had a point.
“Mm, book it.”
“Okay, I’ll send you the time and place later.”
။
After hanging up, Gerry immediately contacted the city’s most luxurious cruise ship restaurant, personally spoke with the head chef to confirm tonight’s menu, and then found a professional planning team to prepare a wonderfully romantic dinner.
He did all this not just to make his boss happy, but more so to
ensure his own survival.
After all, the boss had been visibly happy lately!
Chapter 107
Who would have thought that the CEO, who usually had a sour
face and would occasionally blow up like a lit firecracker, would
do a complete 180?
Not only was he smiling more, but his temper had also
softened.
The number one rule for an employee: don’t aim for speed or
quantity, just aim to never make a mistake.
Putting a little extra thought into the CEO and his wife was
definitely the right move!
After Roderick hung up, he thought for a moment and sent a
text to Madeleine.
Roderick: Are you coming back for dinner tonight?
Madeleine: I am. Rebecca said she has plans tonight.
Roderick’s lips curved into a smile, but then he frowned at the
name ‘Rebecca‘.
He had found it strange just now. When did Madeleine and
Rebecca get so close?
“Sir, I just made some Steamed Milk Custard for the young
Chapter 107
master. Would you like some?”
Kirsten came out of the kitchen with a bowl, about to go
upstairs.
“No, thank you.”
“Alright then, I’ll take it to the young master.”
“Mm.”
Roderick nodded, then suddenly thought of something and
asked, “Kirsten, has anything been off with Kev lately?”
“Off?”
Kirsten stopped and thought carefully. “I don’t think so. The
young master has been getting along well with the madam
lately, the boy has been much more behaved.”
Roderick breathed a sigh of relief.
“Speaking of which.”
Kirsten found it strange. “Sir, hasn’t Dr. Clark been here to treat
the young master in a long time?”
Roderick’s expression darkened a bit. “She won’t be coming
Chapter 107
anymore. I’m looking for a new therapist for Kev.”
“Oh my, that won’t be easy. Didn’t Dr. Clark say that it’s very
difficult for children to build trust? It will probably take a long
time to get used to a new doctor.”
Then her brow smoothed out. “But I don’t think it’s a big deal.
The young master is doing great now, he’s laughing and talking
with the madam every day.”
Roderick also smiled gently.
“A mother’s love truly is the cure for all pain.”
Kirsten took the bowl to the playroom. Inside, Kevin was looking
