Chapter 302
Without a backward glance, the duo fled the scene with a haste that would put the most seasoned sprinter to shame.
In the executive suite of Thomas Group, a senior executive emerged from the CEO's office, his expression a mix of confusion and surprise.
The CEO had inexplicably started munching on an egg during the briefing.
Initially, the senior executive believed it to be a high-end item, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be an egg. And it came enclosed in that extremely inexpensive plastic pouch.
While the executive mulled over this puzzle, a sudden jostling interrupted his train of thought.
“Move aside.”
The authoritative command was issued by none other than Rhea.
Bewildered by Rhea’s abrupt entrance, the senior executive could only frown and look back at her.
Rhea promptly halted, spun around, and asked in a soft tone, “Is Marcus in there?”
The unexpected encounter with Millie had thrown her off balance. She reminded herself that she couldn’t afford to be overly assertive in Marcus’ company.
Earlier, she had publicly humiliated Analia, slapping her twice. The memory of consuming Analia’s saliva was still disgustingly fresh in her mind.
The sudden shift in Rhea’s demeanor startled the executive.
However, Rhea’s father was a figure of power. Despite his current overseas engagement, they couldn't risk offending his daughter. Thus, he nodded.
“Yes, Miss Evans.”
Opening her posh handbag, Rhea refreshed her lipstick and touched up her makeup using a compact mirror. She approached the door and knocked softly.
“Enter.”
“Marcus.”
Elegantly, Rhea swung open the door.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
Seated in a plush, black leather chair, Marcus cast a glance towards the door, his penetrating gaze remaining unaffected by Rhea’s meticulously applied makeup. He returned his attention to the document in his hand.
“What brings you here?”
The distant look in his eyes stung Rhea’s heart.
