NovelBookChapter 323: 323. This guy has hit the muzzle of the president's gun_1 Upon seeing Elly Campbell, Robert Green immediately greeted her, "Madam." Tired of correcting Robert Green's appellation for her, she simply ignored it, gave a nod, and walked out. "Madam, are you leaving?" "I'm in a hurry, Assistant Baker, mind your own business and leavebe." Robert Green's repeated calls of "Madam" started to irritate Elly Campbell.
"But, Madam..." "Assistant Baker!" Finally losing patience, Elly Campbell interrupted Robert Green, "How many times do I need to emphasize to you that I have divorced your President Jones? Can you change how you address me?" Startled by Elly Campbell's shout, Robert Green's face froze for a moment.
This was the first the had seen Elly Campbell get so angry over a form of address, showing a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe knew that in the past, she ignored his repeated calls of "Madam"; why would she care so much at this moment? Did his clueless boss do something to displease her again? Robert Green's heart, like that of an old mother's, began to boil.
Would his emotionally unintelligent boss ever give him a break? "Alright, Miss Campbell." By then, Robert Green certainly wouldn't dare to provoke Elly Campbell further and promptly changed his way of addressing her. "However, Miss Campbell, could you wait a little longer before leaving? Don't you want to know what happened with those thugs who troubled you last night?" Elly Campbell's gaze fell upon the man in front of her once more when Robert Green mentioned this, and then she said, "What else could it be if not the work of Sophie Baker and her daughter?" She scoffed coldly, her gaze shifting towards the man held in the middle, turning somber. The man met her scrutinizing eyes, and his pupils contracted sharply, as if frightened by her.
"I'll leave this matter to you, Assistant Baker; I won't be going up," she said.
Having said this, she didn't wait for Robert Green to speak and walked away.
Robert Green didn't stop Elly Campbell, nor did he insist, only turning to give an order: "Take this man up to report to the CEO." At that moment, in the CEO's Office on the top floor of Jones Corporation, Adam Jones sat in front of his desk with a dark expression, exuding a chill that deterred anyone from approaching.
Shortly after, someone knocked on the office door.
"Cin." The deep, husky voice, tinged with harshness, made everyone outside shudder.
The middle-aged man being held shivered uncontrollably, and the next moment, he was pushed into Adam Jones's office.
"President Jones, the men who troubled your wife last night were instigated by this one," someone reported. Adam Jones's gaze slowly shifted towards the middle-aged man, the sheer coldness in his eyes terrifying the man into dropping to his knees.
"President Jones, this is a misunderstanding, really! Please investigate clearly, have no grudge against Miss Campbell, why would I send people to trouble her?" the man pleaded. The icy stare of Adam Jones now looked at the middle-aged man as though he was seeing a dead person.
Seeing him slowly rise from behind the desk, like the Grim Reaper, Adam Jones moved step by step towards the man.
Even Robert Green, who had been by Adam Jones's side for many years, was frightened by the killing intent emanating from him at that moment. Clearly, the CEO's mood had reached a terrible low point; this man had run into his firing line.
"Ah!"
The next second, a sharp scream echoed in Adam Jones's office as the middle-aged man clutched his stomach and collapsed on the floor, trembling with fear.
