The Charming New CEO

7

My mother was absolutely the stumbling block on my path to success.

After I hung up the phone, my miserable face was reflected on the black screen.

"Mr. Lowe, let me explain..."

I tried to make my expression look more sincere.

"I really didn't mean to be late..." I added.

Would he forget everything just now if I changed the subject?

Matthias looked at me and said nothing.

I felt as though I was about to suffocate.

"I've already packed up and can head to the office now! I promise to finish my work properly°™"

All of a sudden, Matthias turned around and walked out. "Follow me."

I hurried to catch up.

It was not until we went out the door that I realized Matthias was not going in the direction of the office, but regardless, I had no courage to question my boss.

I remained silent until we stood in the hospital lobby, and then I could not help but query, "Mr. Lowe, are you feeling unwell?"
