Jessie shook her head gently, "That's not true, Violet and I are best friends for years, never had a fight or a conflict."
"Then why?"
Jessie lowered her eyes, "It's a little something that happened to me on my own, not quite fit for work anymore."
After saying that, she stood up, "Okay Lorenzo, let's not talk about that, let's go, I'm hungry, let's go eat first, my treat."
"Okay." Lorenzo also stood up.
Jessie smiled, "Let's go."
The two men joked and laughed as they got into the car.
Seeing the reply from Jessie, Violet was about to be pissed off.
What did she mean she didn’t want to come back?
What the hell was she up to?
Violet was angry and anxious, and dialed Jessie’s number.
However, Jessie was just like George, and her phone couldn't even be reached.
Violet was dizzy with anger and rubbed her temples.
Seeing her like this, Bella couldn't help but ask, "Mrs. Murphy, what's wrong?"
"It's Jessie, saying something about not wanting to come back to work." Violet said with a sigh.
Bella pondered for a moment, "Don't want to go to work? Is it because she is in love? I've heard that many companies rule that employees are not allowed to fall in love, because they are afraid that employees will delay their work because of that, could this be the case with Miss Robinson?"
Hearing this, Violet blinked, "In love?"
"I'm guessing." Bella smiled.
Violet rubbed her chin and finally shook her head, "It should be unlikely, Jessie likes George, she shouldn't be with another man, and even if Jessie is with another man, with that career mind of hers, she's not someone who would give up her job just because she's in love."
"In that case, I don't know, why don't you go find Miss Robinson and ask her yourself, Mrs. Murphy?" Bella suggested.
Violet nodded, "Okay, I will do it the day after tomorrow, it just happens to be the weekend, and I'll go see Jessie's parents on the way. Well, Bella, I'm done eating, I'll go to the office first."
"Go on, be careful on the way." Bella admonished.
Violet nodded with a smile, "I will, don't worry, I'll go first."
She waved her hand and left home.
Meanwhile, in the Murphy Group.
Stanley had just finished the meeting and came out of the conference room when Fraser greeted him with a complicated face, “Mr. Murphy, Dr. Baxter is here."
Stanley paused slightly in his steps, "Henry? Isn't he locked up at home? Why is he out?"
"I don't know, but I think he has got it over and that's why he was released, I thought he snuck out at first too, so I even contacted his father, but his father said that he was the one who released him." Fraser replied.
Stanley nodded slightly, indicating that he knew, "Where is he now?"
"In the hall, waiting to see you."
"Well, let's go." Stanley nodded and agreed to meet.
Soon, he arrived at the hall and Fraser opened the door.
Henry was sitting on the couch, a glass of water in his hand, and was bowing his head, seemingly in a daze.
Stanley frowned and lifted his foot to walk in.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Henry immediately snapped back to his senses and looked up at Stanley, a far-fetched smile squeezing out of his face, "Stanley, you're here."
"Don't smile if you don't want to, it's ugly." Stanley walked across to him and sat down in front of the sofa.
Fraser went to the side to make tea.
When Henry heard Stanley saying that he was forcing a smile, his face flushed with embarrassment for a moment and he lowered his head, "I'm sorry."
Stanley was right, he didn't really want to laugh, and he couldn't.
