Chapter 126 His Partiality for Her
“But…” Speaking of this, Ada paused for a moment and said hesitantly, “I was praised at the meeting.”
“Praise?” Evelyn was confused.
“It’s also because of your incident that I was praised for my kindness towards colleagues and bravery. Can you understand?” Ada shook her head as she spoke. “Lawyer Athena did more than me, but the company gave me more recognition. This is the first time I’ve received so much high praise since I joined the company.”
This time, Evelyn understood it. There might be some mistakes in Eva’s work, but no matter what, she was a supervisor. Even if the company wanted to fire her, they would have to wait until the investigation results were out. It was estimated that it was Huston’s order to suspend her directly, let alone Charlie’s
matter. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Evelyn was helpless and amused. She hadn’t realized that Huston was such a childish person before.
“Okay, you should be more careful yourself. It is critical now.” Evelyn reminded her.
Ada nodded and looked at her, asking, “Do you really have nothing to do with President Lloyd?”
pretended to be calm and asked, “Do you think President Lloyd will like me?”
Hearing this, Ada also felt that it was a little absurd. “Although you are very good, I always feel that President Lloyd is not someone that ordinary people can handle. In my heart, he is not a human, but God.”
Evelyn didn’t reply, but she sneered in her heart, “God? You’ve never seen him behave like a beast.”
While they were talking, the office door was suddenly pushed open from the outside. Charlie came in, looked around the office, and finally fixed his eyes on Evelyn. “Evelyn, come with
me.”
Evelyn was chatting with Ada. When hearing that, she was shocked and immediately followed him out.

At the corner of the corridor of the office, Charlie looked her up and down and asked, “Why didn’t you tell me you were coming to work? How are you feeling?”
Evelyn smiled and replied, “I’m fine. It’s just a mild concussion. I’m already recovered.”
After hearing the words “concussion”, he frowned and said,
“You can still smile now. You were not scared at all.”
“I was scared. I didn’t have time to think about the situation at that time.” She handed him the documents in her arms. “I’ve
in the mailbox. I’ll check them in the afternoon and give them to you.”
Charlic took it but did not look at it. Instead, he said to her, “You’ve just recovered. There’s no need to be in such a hurry. Take your time.”
“It’s okay. Since I’m here to work, there must be no problem. And I also want to finish this lawsuit as soon as possible.” She had a lot of sympathy for John Lee, and she had a sense of urgency to contact Nick.
“Don’t be too anxious. Just do what you can,” said Charlie.
Suddenly, he saw a scab on her frontal angle under her hair. He subconsciously took a step forward and raised his hand. He wanted to lift her hair to have a look.
She frowned slightly and was startled. She took a few steps back and looked at him warily with her big eyes.
Only then did Charlie realize that his actions were a little frivolous. His eyes dimmed a little because of her resistance, and he casually found an excuse. “There’s something on your hair.”
She raised her hand and touched it, feeling embarrassed. “Oh, thank you.”
Seeing that she was about to feel uncomfortable, Charlie hid the disappointment in his eyes, pretended to be relaxed, and joked, “Look at how scared you are. Are you worried that I will do something to you in broad daylight?”
