Chapter 109
"Mr. Skyler, how do you like this outfit?" Aveline asked, stepping back as Russell took a photo.
Russell smiled, his handsome face carrying a hint of mischief. "It's great."
"Then let's go with this one," Aveline said, pulling out her card to
pay.
Russell didn't stop her, his eyes lingering on her with a mysterious glint..
Just as the payment was processed, Aveline's phone rang. It was a call from her department manager, Glen Lane.
"Hello? Mr. Lane," she answered.
Glen's voice sounded a bit strange. "Miss Young, are you busy right now? There's a data set that doesn't seem right. Can you come back. and check it? It's important for the project."
Aveline frowned. "Is it the data I worked on?"
Glen replied, "Yes, it is."
Aveline was puzzled. She had double-checked all the data before leaving work yesterday. How could there be a mistake?
"Alright, I'll come back to take a look," she agreed.
Glen added, "Great, thank you. Don't worry, you'll be paid for the overtime."
Aveline thanked him and hung up. She turned to Russell and Selena. "I need to go back to work."
Selena said, "What kind of lousy company makes you work overtime on a Saturday? You should quit."
+15 BONUS
Russell added, "I agree. Why not come work for me? Name your terms."
Selena perked up, giving Aveline a knowing look.
Aveline pretended not to notice, smiling. "Thank you for the offer, Mr. Skyler, but I need to finish my current work first. I'll consider other options once I'm done."
Russell said, "No problem. Take your time. You can call me anytime when you're ready."
Aveline knew she needed to end the conversation before it got out of hand. "I should get going."
Selena said, "I'll drive you. Mr. Skyler, do you need a ride somewhere?"
Russell replied, "No, thanks. I have to visit a friend who lives nearby. Drive safely, you two."
"Alright, see you later."
"Goodbye."
Once they were in the car, Selena asked, "What's going on?"
Aveline sighed. "I just need to go back for some overtime."
Selena frowned slightly, "Why do I feel like this isn't that simple?"
Aveline looked at her. "What do you suspect now?"
Selena replied, "I have a feeling this has something to do with that scumbag."
Aveline didn't respond, just reached over and fastened her seatbelt.
At DK Group.
Glen was sweating nervously as he faced Desmond. "Mr. Blake, is
Desmond sended sightly. No need to be so tense. Mr. Lane. Dreching's fine now. You can go back to your day off."
Glen haurriedly replied, "Okay, thank you."
He left quickly, feeling puzzled. Desmond had called him in with a serious tone, insisting that Aveline had to come back. He thought there was a major issue with the project.
But that was it?
Glen left the company, still full of questions
As soon as he walked out. Aveline arrived.
She got out of the car and said to Selena, "No need to wait for me. I don't know how long this will take
Selena replied, "Alright, call me if you need anything."
"Okay."
Aveline closed the car door and watched Selena drive away before turning and entering the company.
It was Saturday, and the large company was completely empty.
As she stepped out of the elevator, she looked up and saw Desmond standing not far away. When he saw her, a professional smile appeared on his face.
