Love You Can’t Say

Samuel’s face immediately darkened and was a bit irritated, “Well, it seems like that Miss Kennedy doesn’t like me handling this matter in an amiable way. Sure, let’s change this another way, but I do hope that Miss Kennedy won’t find our approach too brutal this time.”

“Let’s wait and see!” Then I just left. I got to thank my grandma for though she was quite austere these years, she had never taught me to adopt shady means and kept me quite good-natured.

Leaving the café, I went straight to the company.

To be honest, I was in a shitty mood but not to the point that I couldn’t bear.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

I met Luis downstairs who was clearly in a hurry, so I just pretended that I didn’t see him, but he just approached and stopped me, “I haven’t seen you for days. What have you been up to?”

“Working, obviously!”

He twitched his mouth, “What are you being so cold for? I’m your admirer, all right? Would it hurt you to be slightly sweet to me?”

I ignored the question and asked back, “Where is your biological father?” If Luna was Luis’ mother, where was his father then?

Maybe it was because my question was a bit abrupt, his face immediately changed and stared at me, “Why are you asking me this question?”

“I’m simply curious.” Luna was kind of a drama queen and got many men around.

“He’s dead.” He said indifferently and continued, “I will tell you everything that you want to know if you have dinner with me tonight.”

“I’m not interested.” Passing him, I went into the elevator.

“I’ll cook myself.” He hurriedly said.

The elevator door closed and kept him outside.

After entering the office, I called Jackie who clearly looked terrible, so I asked, “What happened?”

She sighed, “Well, the audit thing. President George wants to look over this matter himself. I’m under a lot of pressure.”

I grinned, “What for? We’ll check the files the same way. As long as you have proofread everything, there won’t be any problems.”

Remembering the man that she met yesterday downstairs, I asked, “Was that your boyfriend who picked you up yesterday?”

She froze and was obviously surprised, “What?”

“The man driving the black Cadillac. He’s quite dashing. Is he your boyfriend?” I was simply chatting around and didn’t expect her to be so nervous.

I giggled and said, “I just bumped into you guys yesterday. What are you being so edgy for? I’m married and certainly wouldn’t snatch your man.”

She let out a forced smile, “Director Clara, I don’t mean this. You know that I’m quite private about my personal life within the company. Plus, many girls in the company mentioned that they wouldn’t get married and be pregnant within the five years when they interviewed for the job.”

The George Group was a great company, but grandpa Freddy deliberated that female staff would miss work by having maternity leave or marriage leave after taking the offer, so he made a rule that women can’t start a relationship or get pregnant within five years.

This rule was at its nature a flawed one, so Dennis actually disagreed this idea after taking over the company, but he can’t just abolish it since it was grandpa who created it. Therefore, though it was a rule, it wasn’t legally-binding and certainly won’t make things difficult for girls having maternity leave.

But since this was her personal life, I was in no place to question, so I just beamed, “It’s okay. I’m just curious since I saw you yesterday.”

Handing her the files that I’d processed, I said, “You can go on with your work then. Spend more time on the AC audit since Dennis said that he would verify it himself. Moreover, give me a summary of Jo Turner Credit’s audit report.”

“Sure!”

After Jackie left the office, I checked the time and it was already noon.

I actually felt odd since Dennis should be here and taking me to lunch at this time.

I was taken aback when the office door was suddenly pushed open. I paused and saw Mario rushing into the office and he just dragged me out.

“Doctor Bennett, what happened?” I can’t keep the pace since I was quite petite and was literally running.

Brows knitted, he said solemnly after entering the elevator, “Dennis had a car accident and is getting the emergency treatment in the hospital now.”

Car accident?

I was quite muddle-headed. Wasn’t he quite fit last night?

“How is he? How come that he got into a car accident?” He drove the car basically like a pro racer and there was no way that he can have a crash.

“Let’s go over there and see what is going on first!” Getting out of the elevator, Mario directly raced me to the hospital.

I followed him hurriedly to the emergency room and saw Marcus standing by the door.

“What’s going on?” Mario was short-breathed.

Marcus looked fine and instead of answering Mario’s question, he gave me an awkward glance and then looked at the end of the hall.

I followed his sight and froze when I saw disheveled Olivia with bruises on her hands.

“I wasn’t there and didn’t know what happened.” Marcus answered and went to Olivia.

Well, it wouldn’t take me much effort to figure out that Dennis got into the car crash with Olivia in the car.

“Who’s the patient’s family member?” White-clad doctor run out of the emergency room with medical record.

“What happened? Is Dennis okay?” Hearing the doctor’s voice, Olivia hurriedly stood up and asked.

Mario was a doctor and was quite clear-headed, “How is the patient now?”

“His head received a blow and he is currently in a coma. We’ll get to know his exact condition once he wakes up. what’s more, there was a glass in the patient’s rib and we have to perform an operation. The glass is a bit deep. We need the patient’s family member to sign this form.” The doctor then took out the consent form and scanned around.

Olivia replied hurriedly, “Here. Let me sign it!”

The doctor nodded and asked. “Who are you to this patient?”

Olivia paused and bit her lips.

I stood aside with my arms folded and said, “Does the form have the legal validity if the patient’s lover signs the form?”

The doctor knitted his brows, “The patient is in an urgent condition. I advise you to treat this seriously. Moreover, the operation consent form is only legal when it’s signed by the patient’s parents, wife or kids.”

I took over the form and signed my name coldly, “Are there any other forms that I have to sign?”

The doctor paused and shook his head, “Are you related to this patient?”

“I’m his wife!”

Then I continued, “I will go back to work if there are no more forms for me to sign. I’m quite swamped today.”

Sensing that we got quite a complicated relationship here, the doctor examined me and Olivia, “The admission procedure has to be completed later. Since you are the patient’s wife, you got to stay over and look after the patient.”

I got agitated, “Will he die?”

All the people present were shocked by my words and looked at me.

The doctor frowned, “No. He isn’t seriously injured and is just wounded.”

“Okay!”
