Chapter 598
“Shush, Nicole just fell asleep.” Gale quickly asked him to be quiet.
Joshua scrambled over, whispering into her ear, “Mommy, someone’s looking for you. He called over a dozen times. It kept ringing, so I answered it for you. Here, see for yourself.”
Gale took the phone.
Why was Arthur looking for her again?
Was it about that big company?
She had already told him clearly that she would not go.
Gale stared at the phone. Joshua said, “Mommy, are you not going to call him back.”
“I’ll call them back later. I’m not free right now.”
Joshua blinked. How could he allow that?
Then would his mother not miss out on an amazingly rich and handsome man?!
“That man made it sound like it was important. He said there was something urgent!” Joshua said with an exaggerated expression.
Gale patted him on the head. “Children shouldn’t meddle in adult matters.’
Right after she said that, her phone rang again with a call from Arthur.
Worried that she would wake her daughter up, Gale had Zoe keep an eye on Nicole while she got up to answer the call.
“Mr. Hughes.”
“Molly, my driver is at your place. Hurry up and get in the car.”
“What is it? If it’s still about what we talked about that day, then there’s no reason for me to go,” Gale asked.
Arthur answered, “It’s not like that. The company’s big boss is here. He said he wants to see you!”
“Big boss?”
“Yes, yes. He’ll be here in half an hour!”
Gale could not really believe it. “Mr. Hughes, how could someone insignificant like me end up having anyone so high up from a company come over? You are overthinking it.”
She felt like it was probably just a department manager.
