Chapter 34 accident, but he suddenly realized that the words he uttered just now were very mean. After pondering for a moment, he decided to call Emma again to apologize and ask whether she was injured. However, his calls did not go through again. It was obvious that she was deliberately ignoring his calls. He subsequently summoned Theo to his office through the internal line and instructed, “Send a driver to the hospital in the countryside to pick up somebody.” “Okay.” Theo responded before he followed up with a question. “Who are we picking up?” Trevor spat out a name with some difficulty. “Emma.” Theo was taken aback, but he accepted the task and prepared to leave. Just then, Trevor stopped Theo and said, “Actually, forget it. Go and pick her up yourself.” Theo is a trusted subordinate who has a calm and level-headed temperament. I can Having worked for Trevor for many years, Theo had some understanding of how Trevor’s mind worked. Therefore, he suggested, “Mr. Bateson, why don’t you go yourself?” Trevor rejected the idea. “No. You go.” The relationship between him and Emma was so tense now. If he went there himself, it would probably only worsen their relationship even more. Theo accepted the orders and went off to pick Emma up. Approximately forty minutes later, a phone call came from him. His voice sounded rather troubled over the phone. “Mr. Bateson, Miss Yates refused to take my car. On the contrary, President Zurich himself came over and picked Miss Yates up.” || Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Trevor asked through gritted teeth, “Wesley went to pick her uphimself?” I knew it. Wesley’s intentions toward Emma are not that simple. If he only regarded her as an ordinary employee, then there was no reason for an employer like him to personally visitan employee who had gotten into an accident. Theo answered, “That’s right. President Zurich was already there when I arrived.” He continued, “I made some inquiries. Miss Yates was not injured. It seems that she only suffered some scratches on her arm. Also, I conveyed your apologies to her. And she… she replied.” Trevor asked grimly, “What did she say?” Theo answered honestly, “She said that it doesn’t matteranymore. You’ve always liked to indiscriminately cause trouble for her anyway. Besides, whatever she does is always wrong in your eyes,” When he thought back to Emma’s expression and tone as she uttered those words earlier, even an outsiderlike him could keenly sense just how badly his employer had treated her in the past. Trevor clenched his phone in silence for a long while before he said, “You can come back now.” Theoquickly followed up with another report. “By the way, Mr. Bateson, Miss Yates came to the countryside today because it was her mother’s death anniversary. Her mother’s death anniversary is today. In order not to cause delays for today’s meeting, she came down to the countryside yesterday afternoon and took the bus early this morning to return after paying herrespects to her mother in the morning. She never expected to be involved in a car accident.” After Trevor finished listening to Thco’s report, he was utterly distraught inside.

Her mother’s death anniversary? He knew that her mother had passed away many years ago, but henever knew that her mother was buried in the countryside. He never knew the date of her mother’s death anniversary either. She had never told him before. Or rather, he had never bothered to care even if she told him anything. Furthermore, she went down to the countryside yesterday in order to prevent any delays to the meeting. He had scorned her for regarding the workplace as the marketplace when she obviously attached great importance to this meeting… At this moment, Emma was sitting in Wesley’s car as they returned to the city. Her eyes were slightly reddened. She was not hurt by Trevor’s words previously. On the contrary, she was furious. She was furious over why he was still causing trouble for her when they were already divorced. Upon further consideration, she realized that he could be considered her boss at work even though they were divorced. In the entertainment circle, the investors were regarded as the sugar daddies, the bosses, and the kings. That was why it was only natural for him to question her when she was absent from the meeting. This was probably the cruelty of the workplace.
