Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 1391

Chapter 1391 Verbal Warning

Chloe was the only person remaining in the private room at the cafe.

Seeing that Kendrick had already left, Chloe secretly let out a sigh of relief. All of a sudden, she felt exhausted as she leaned against the back of the chair.

She looked up at the dim lights above her, then narrowed her eyes as she fell into deep thought.

To immerse their patrons in the experience, the cafe installed dim lights to create a dark atmosphere. It was at times like this that Chloe could calm her heart.

As soon as Kendrick left the private room, his expression turned foul. Even passers-by would avoid him, fearing that they might get into trouble with this man.

When he saw Beryl at the research center today, it was enough to sound the alarm bells in his heart.

If Beryl managed to find Chloe, it meant that Colton was already on the move. Even though Kendrick already guessed that Colton had a feeling that it was him, he never thought it would happen so soon.

"You're finally back, Mr. Hofstead. Everyone is waiting for you to start the meeting."

The female secretary, who had been waiting for Kendrick at the company's entrance, finally caught sight of the man. She hastily ran up to him and spoke.

Kendrick didn't even spare the female secretary a glance as he quickly entered the office. He responded in a low voice, "Prepare for the meeting."

Slightly stunned, the female secretary hastily said, "Understood."

Was she seeing things? Kendrick didn't seem to be in a good mood right now. What happened in the two hours he was away?

The female secretary left the question unasked, but her curiosity burned even stronger.

During the meeting, the female secretary was distracted as she kept wondering what Kendrick had gone out to do.

The meeting ended quickly.

Kendrick frowned slightly when he noticed the female secretary zoning out. He went back to his office and took a seat at the desk. When he looked up at the female secretary, he noticed that she was still in a daze.

"Lisa, how long have you been working for me?"

Kendrick spoke up in dissatisfaction. Anyone who had worked with Kendrick for years would know that Kendrick was close to blowing up.

Lisa, who had worked for Kendrick for a long time, knew that as well. She looked up at Kendrick's face, her own turning pale.

"Six years, Mr. Hofstead."

"If there's nothing else, you may leave for now."

"Understood."

Lisa left Kendrick's office in a daze. She walked back to her workstation with Kendrick's words still resounding in her mind.

Meanwhile, Kendrick lowered his head and dealt with the matters they had decided at the meeting earlier. The company was slowly gaining the upper hand, and this comforted him a little.

As for Lisa…

Kendrick's gaze was dark as he looked at the entrance of the office.

In reality, he wouldn't actually fire Lisa, but he wouldn't pamper her either. He would punish her if it was necessary.

Those words he said just now were simply a verbal warning to Lisa, and he would deal with the rest later.

At that thought, Kendrick suddenly felt a headache coming on. He reached up and massaged his temples, his thoughts drifting.
