Chapter 280 Throw A Check At Her Again
The couple walked into the office together. Elizabeth was not bothered by the other people’s stares any longer. They were free to think whatever they wanted.
After all, she had grown accustomed to hearing those rumors about herself.
As soon as Matthew entered the office, he was swamped with work, answering unending calls before heading to the conference room for a meeting.
They had breakfast together on the way there, and she felt he was only hers for that short period of time.
Propping her chin on her palm, she looked at the empty desk, thinking of how busy he typically was.
After letting out a sigh, she began to deal with her work for the day. In fact, her job was fairly effortless.
Around ten o’clock, Matthew had yet to return, so she went into the pantry and poured herself a cup of coffee, sitting by the window to sip it.
Later, Elizabeth took out her phone and planned to call Cody to inquire whether or not the people from the moving company had arrived. They planned to relocate some items from the old house to the new mansion.
Yet, Shelby called her at that moment. Pursing her lips, she answered the call.
“Hello?”
That night, she had already received a warning call from Shelby.
It seemed like Dominic was no longer hiding his feelings for her and had taken the initiative to contact her more
frequently. Maybe he had even talked about those things at home as well.
“Elizabeth, is it convenient for you to come out and meet me now?”
Glancing at the time, Elizabeth answered, “I’m at work. It’s a little inconvenient.”
In truth, she did not want to meet Shelby, as the latter was always harsh toward her. However, she could not refute the woman either, so she felt immensely aggrieved.
On the other end of the line, Shelby sneered as she heard Elizabeth’s reply. “Are you afraid to meet me? Where do you work? I’ll apply for leave on your behalf.”
Hearing that, Elizabeth knitted her brows. Shelby sounded as though she would not give up if she did not meet Elizabeth today.
“Where are you, Mrs. Campbell? I’ll be there right away.”
Hmph. That’s more like it. I’m at the café on the corner of the street. I’m not going anywhere if you don’t come
After hanging up, Elizabeth sent a text to Matthew: Mr. Hilton, I’m taking a leave of absence. I have a personal matter to attend to
