Chapter 334 Gardner Residence
Without waiting for Whitney to react, Nicole turned and left in a hurry once she finished saying that.
In the meantime, there were two people sitting in a private room of a high-end cafe.
These two were none other than Tony and Colton. After glancing carefully at the man who sat by the window with his head resting on his hand, Tony retracted his gaze and stared at his phone.
While staring at his phone, he asked, “President Gardner, Miss Nicole Anderson has called you 3 times. Are you sure that you’re not going to answer her call?”
After Tony asked that, he thought, Not only did he not answer his phone, he also prohibited me from answering mine.
Hearing Tony’s question caused Colton to retract his gaze from the window. Then, he looked at the screen of the phone he placed on the table with an idle demeanor. Showing a meaningful smile, he said decisively, “No, I’m not answering.”
As Tony looked at Colton’s confident look, he couldn’t help but feel strange. President Colton’s behavior is rather odd today. For some unknown reason, he actually instructed me to tell Whitney that we’re going to have an important meeting outside of the office. But as his assistant, more specifically, his top-notch assistant, how could there be any meetings that I’m not aware of?
Thinking that I might have missed out on some important orders, I simply let him drag me out of the office building, but I didn’t expect that he would directly drag me out only to spend our time sitting in this cafe.
What’s more, we’ve been sitting here for 3 hours or so, and we even drank 3 cups of coffee. Since I have no idea what President Gardner has up his sleeves, I can only accompany him here in this cafe.
A curious Tony asked under his breath, “President Gardner, how about you utter something and tell me what’s on your mind? Or at least tell me the reason why we’re here in this cafe.”
At the sound of Tony’s voice, Colton simply glanced at him lightly. Nevertheless, he didn’t intend to hide from his assistant. “My grandpa is critically ill.”
Tony nodded upon hearing that. I know about this matter. According to the doctor, the brain tumor was pressing against Old Mr. Benedict’s cranial nerves. Furthermore, taking his age into consideration, the success rate of the surgery is exceptionally low.
Even after receiving Colton’s answer, Tony was still puzzled. Therefore, he asked again, “But what does that have to do with you being here?”

What a waste of reading! This could have been an excellent novel if it hadn't skipped chapters after 531 and then everything is garbled. Get your act together if you still want a reading audience!!!...
