Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 1409

Chapter 1409 Preliminary Success

After the man's departure, Darcy turned her gaze towards Kendrick, her eyes filled with anticipation as if awaiting the unfolding of events. However, Kendrick appeared reluctant to divulge more, his attention seemingly absorbed by the documents in his hand, his lips sealed.

Unable to bear the suspense any longer, Darcy quickly reminded, "Mr. Hofstead, you didn't finish what you were saying just now."

Kendrick had just confessed his feelings for her, and she was not about to let this moment slip through her fingers.

She had suspected it for a while now, given that they had been through thick and thin together over the years. She wasn't unattractive either, so it was entirely plausible for Kendrick to have feelings for her.

Upon hearing her words, Kendrick seemingly snapped back to reality, recalling the recent events, and said, "Is something wrong at home? If you have time, I can accompany you. After all, I am your boss."

"What?"

This time, it was Darcy's turn to be taken aback, as Kendrick had never made such a proposition before.

"What's wrong? Is it inconvenient?" He sounded somewhat hurt, his tone unusually gentle.

She quickly shook her head. "No, it's not inconvenient at all. Whenever you have time, Mr. Hofstead."

Kendrick nodded and smiled gently in response. "You carry on with your work then. There's a lot to be done recently, so don't overwork yourself."

Darcy, unsure of how to react, simply complied with Kendrick's instructions. She nodded and exited Kendrick's office.

She felt that many eyes were on her as soon as she left the office, and she suspected that the words Kendrick had uttered in his office had already spread among the employees.

A hint of satisfaction crept onto Darcy's face. That person could continue to rise through the ranks; he had handled this situation quite adeptly.

"Darcy, congratulations!"
