Seeing Ethan Sinclair heading towards Kiana Sutton’s room, Chelsea Chapman hurriedly stopped him.
"Sir, Young Madam is quite pitiful. She can’t speak, and many things she gestures might be misunderstood by us. Moreover, she hasn’t eaten all day today and didn’t seem to sleep last night either. If she did sothing to upset you, please be generous and forgive her this ti."
Ethan Sinclair frowned tightly.
Not sleeping all night and not eating all day!
Huh...
This damned woman, is she planning to use a hunger strike to threaten him?
Ethan Sinclair, full of anger, opened Kiana Sutton’s door and coldly said, "Kiana Sutton, you’ve got so nerve..."
Before he finished his sentence, he saw Kiana Sutton fast asleep on the desk.
Ethan Sinclair: "..."
Chelsea Chapman craned her neck to look inside, but Ethan Sinclair shut the door, cutting off her view.
Looking at Kiana Sutton’s furry head, Ethan Sinclair suddenly felt like he had exerted all his strength to throw a punch, only for it to land on cotton.
Extrely powerless.
She had been restless all day, yet she could still sleep soundly.
Isn’t it uncomfortable to sleep like that?
He walked over, picked her up, and placed her on the bed, then saw the tears lingering at the corner of her eyes.
Her little face was completely pale, with only her nose remaining quite red.
Perhaps she had cried too sorrowfully; even in her sleep, she was still sobbing, looking utterly wronged.
Seeing that she had written quite a bit, he got up to take a look and almost fainted with anger.
He thought she was crying so sadly, presumably realizing her mistake, and had written a thousand tis "I’m sorry."
Who would’ve guessed she had densely written at least a thousand "I’m not wrong," not a single "I’m sorry."
Really... getting bolder!
Or rather... she really didn’t push Kate?
But the surveillance clearly showed it, and her lack of motive to push Kate seems so unconvincing.
Moreover, Kate can’t swim; there’s no reason to risk her life to fra her.
Besides, Kate hasn’t pursued Kiana Sutton’s oversight.
All these facts just make it look like Kiana Sutton did wrong yet remains unrepentant.
Ethan Sinclair let out a heavy sigh, feeling a headache.
He turned to look deeply at Kiana Sutton before leaving the room after a long while.
Once out of the room, he called Connor Grant.
"Look into the incident of Kate falling into the water thoroughly."
...
Early the next morning, Kiana Sutton woke up to find herself lying on the bed.
Two days and a night without eating had left her very weak.
But wasn’t she writing all night? When did she get to the bed?
"Young Madam... Young Madam, are you awake? I’m coming in."
As soon as the words were spoken, Chelsea Chapman pushed the door and entered.
She was still carrying a steaming and fragrant breakfast.
Seeing Kiana Sutton looking a bit dazed, she said with a smile, "Sir said after breakfast you should hurry to the company. You’ve already been absent from work for a day; if you’re absent again, your salary will be deducted."
Kiana Sutton was taken aback and stretched her sore and weak hands to gesture, "Ethan Sinclair ca back last night?"
"Yes, he was the one who carried you to bed!"
Kiana Sutton frowned slightly, feeling a bit complicated.
Her gaze fell lightly on the table with the papers that hadn’t been put away; since Ethan Sinclair had returned, he must have seen what she wrote.
Not only did he not wake her up angrily, but he actually kindly carried her to bed?
What’s going on?
At that mont, Kiana Sutton’s phone suddenly rang; it was a ssage from Nathan Lawson on WeChat, "Secretary Sutton, there’s a Stellaris Technologies file on President Sinclair’s study desk. Please deliver it to the company as soon as possible."
No matter how much resentnt Kiana Sutton felt, she couldn’t joke about work.
After quickly eating sothing, she gained so strength and took the file to the company.
Arriving on the eighteenth floor, Kiana Sutton handed the file over to Nathan Lawson.
Nathan Lawson looked at the panting Kiana Sutton with sowhat guilt, "Actually, the file isn’t needed urgently; you didn’t need to rush."
Nathan Lawson handed a cup of water to Kiana Sutton, who gestured "thank you" before taking it to drink.
Having not eaten all day yesterday, even though she had so breakfast, she was still feeling weak.
Apparently, no matter what happens, you shouldn’t joke about eating.
Kiana Sutton glanced at the file, and Nathan Lawson, understanding her, said casually, "President Sinclair is having a eting, and I’ll deliver the file later."
Kiana Sutton nodded and then rested at her workstation for a while.
Her phone started to ring again, receiving a text from an unknown number.
Upon opening it, Kiana Sutton stood up abruptly.
"et you at Milantia on the fifth floor of The Zenith Tower.—Zoe Xavier."
Kiana Sutton never expected to one day receive a ssage from Zoe Xavier.
Zoe Xavier isn’t filming? Has the shoot been completed?
Nathan Lawson noticed Kiana Sutton’s troubled expression and asked concernedly, "Is sothing wrong?"
Kiana Sutton checked the ti; it was already her lunch break, and she didn’t dare keep Zoe Xavier waiting too long, so she gestured quickly to Nathan Lawson, "Secretary Lawson, it’s lunch break now; I need to et a friend."
Nathan Lawson thought for a mont, and this file Kiana Sutton brought wasn’t actually important, at least not necessary within the next few days.
But since President Sinclair arranged things this way, he must have his reasons.
Thinking about how President Sinclair was upset all day yesterday, combined with Kiana Sutton’s absence, Nathan Lawson decided after so consideration to say casually, "President Sinclair might want to see you later."
Between her mother-in-law and her husband, Kiana Sutton decisively chose her mother-in-law.
Who let Ethan Sinclair, her husband, be so distrustful of her?
"If President Sinclair asks, just tell him it’s lunch break and I’m out to eat."
Saying this, Kiana Sutton left.
Nathan Lawson: "..."
Isn’t Secretary Sutton usually obedient to President Sinclair? Why has she beco so bold?
When Kiana Sutton arrived at The Zenith Tower, her heart was racing.
She and Zoe Xavier hadn’t spent much ti together; due to Zoe Xavier often filming, the number of tis they t could be counted on one hand.
When Hannah Lowell took money from Zoe Xavier that one ti, Zoe Xavier’s attitude towards her was extrely cold.
But during the last visit to Whitecloud Village for the shoot, Zoe Xavier seed less hostile towards her and chatted with her quite a bit.
That day, she cried quite badly, even causing Ethan Sinclair to misunderstand, leading to a big mix-up; she had no idea what business Zoe Xavier had with her today.
Worried that she looked too haggard, Kiana Sutton went to the restroom before heading to the restaurant, applying so powder and using lipstick as blush, patting her face to make her complexion look better.
Milantia is an Italian restaurant, and as soon as Kiana Sutton walked in, she saw Zoe Xavier in the corner.
Zoe Xavier was dressed in a white long dress, her slightly curled hair draped over her shoulders, exuding a cold and aristocratic aura. Without doing anything, simply sitting there, she looked like a painting.
She was so beautiful.
Ethan Sinclair’s looks were completely inherited from her.
Noticing Kiana Sutton standing a bit dazed not too far away, Zoe Xavier smiled lightly, "Why are you standing there, co here."
