Chapter 22 

Madeline was held by someone 

She looked up and found that the sun above her was a late dazzling 

However, she could see the person holding her clearly when she narrowed her eyes. 

It was Steveil 

He still looked tall and sturdy, with a hamdiome but cold fare. His eyes were also dark art intimidating. 

He exuded a cold aura that warned others not dis

She could not remember that Vanguard Corporation was under Sevens name, 

What she remembered was that the man was the CEO of Imperial Grmupi 

Madeline lowered her head. Cold sweat was already forming on her forehead, sloch was mainly caused by the pain she felt 

She forced herself to ignore the pain in her ankle. 

Once all the other people left, she would not have to force herself to endure it anymore 

soon as possible. 

She only hoped that they could get ins as soon as 

The security guard glared at Madeline fiercely with a pale face 

He thought the situation turned terrible as the woman was trying to make a scene just when the CEO armed here right then. 

Brandon Kromer, who had just reminded Madeline to get out of the way, said, “Mr. Wagner, the weather is hot today: Shall we go in now 

It was quiet around.

There were many people following behind Sa not respond 

Madeline’s body shook, and she felt slightly annoyed, wondering why the man had not entered yet. 

She thought. “Is it really Steven whom I saw in the internet cafe last time?” 

Madeline secretly glanced up and immediately saw Steven looking at her. 

Take her in and call for a doctor. Finally, Steven left directly after saying the under coldly 

Madeline sighed with relief, feeling fortunate 

If she continued to endure the pain, she might faint from in 

She but her lips and squatted down to rub her ankle. “What an unlucky day” 

If she had not been a background actor in her previous life and experienced a lot of times in pain, she would not have been this calin today. 

The little sprain was not even worth mentioning if the were in her past Ulife, as she would just need to rub it to ease the pain. 

On the other hand, Madeline did not expect that Steven, the Grim Itraper, could be quite homunë. 

He even called a dorror for her. 

“Ms. Larson, let me help you” Brandon came back in hold Madelne up

The oiber receptionists were also surprised by Madeline’s identity upon sering the se 

They thought that Steven never bothered to show any kindness to a stranger, as kindness was an extremely scarce thing in the man’s eyes, 

Madeline returned to the office. 

The spacious office was huxuriously decorated, with the CEO’s private lounge within the room. 

Madeline did not dare to enter the lounge and tely the area. 

In the office, her seat was only located in a small comer 

It was not eye–catching, but Madeline could be available on call at any time. 

Madeline said. “Thank you” 

Brandon fell embarrassed instead. “It’s okay. We’ll be colleagues in the future to serve Mr. Wagner ingether. Today was my fault, so please don’t take 

it to heart. 

“No, no. It was mine.” Madeline waved her hand. 

“Haha, you’re very kind to say y that,” Brandon said and got ready to leave “Well then, I’ll go to the conference room downstairs. There will be a meeting soon. 

Madeline replied, “Okay”

Queenie came in with a glass o 

Madeline replied, “The fine. I just twisted my ankle accidentally, but it doesn’t hurt much anymore 

Queenie noticed a noticeable deep purple bruse on Madeline’s ankle at first glance, “Oh, my: Why did your ankle become like this? It must hurt Madeline, don’t endure it on your own Doctor, please take a look at her injury quickly.” 

It was a busy time at work at this moment. If it were for other people, they would not care about such a minor injury at all 

The doctor was a little surprised. He thought someone had a serious injury and hurried over, but it turned out it was just a small wound instead. 

He could not help but be curious about the identity of this secretary 

“It’s not a big deal” After rubbing the pain relief cream on the bruised ankle, the doctor reminded Madeline. “Take it easy for the next couple of days, avoid excessive movement, and stick to your medication schedule.” 

Madeline nodded but thought that her work required her to nin errands everywhere, so it was difficult not to walk around. 

Queenie waited for the doctor to leave before she said, “Mr. Wagner may come to work here after today’s meeting. Just tell me what you need so you don’t have to move around” 

She continued, “You must be feeling pain from your injury. Take a good rest. We will be colleagues from now on, so don’t be too considerate to me. Madeline wanted to say something but hesitated 

When alone in the office, she pursed her lips and asked herself in her 

er mind. “Is everyone in Vanguard Corporation this humane? I’m a newcomer. but I can slack off directly on my first day of work?* 

Moreover, the people here actually addressed her as their colleague. 

Madeline wondered if this was what a workplace really looked like. 

It was completely different from the atmosphere of a filming set. 

Madeline had vaguely heard before that Vanguard Corporation seemed to be a company with strict regulations in the industry 

At that time, Winslet had only sent a documem late but almost got fred 

It took d 

the Larson family a long time to solve the issue. 

Therefore, Madeline always ranembered that Vanguard Corporation was not an easy working place. 

She ramally toyed with the pain relief cream and thought, “After all I’m just starting my jub right now, not an einployer i year. Maylic the regulations will become strat a few years later‘ Forget it. It doesn’t matter to me. But about Steven..”
