After Divorce I Became A Queen (Aurora and Sion) -
Chapter 184 His Attitude
Chapter 184 His Attitude
"That's why the wedding party was cancelled. Mr Carroll found the little girl looks very much like someone and it reminded him of the woman he loves the most. It turns out to be her..." The other employees were all convinced by her imagination.
"Gosh! You are a damn good scriptwriter!"
"There goes the old saying, exclude the most improbable possibilities. There is only one truth!"
"It made sense!"
A bunch of people nodded to agree.
"So, it means Mr Carroll has a darling daughter?"
"Gee! I'm afraid so!"
Sion went into the office and put Morgan on the couch. He rubbed the top of her hair and said gently, "I've gotta work. Can you play by yourself?"
Morgan clutched his shirt, looked at him innocently and shook her head. Both mommy and Theo had told her not to stay with strangers. She knew no one else here but her deadbeat dad. So Sion got her a glass of water and told her to stay in the office.
At that moment, David came in to report, "Mr Carroll, the meeting will start in five minutes."
He was stunned to see Sion get the little girl water and make an exception of keeping her in the office.
"OK." Sion said when he gave Morgan a napkin paper and stood up, "Let's go."
Morgan held one of his fingers and followed him out of the office.
David was shocked to see that. He wanted to remind Sion of something but he dared not object to Sion. Not surprisingly, he would see how shocked the employees would be.
As expected, the employees in the meeting room were discussing work at the last second. However, they were as quiet as mice when they saw Sion and Morgan coming in. David smiled and put one more chair next to the CEO's seat.
Sion turned on the computer and said indifferently, "Let's get started."
Morgan saw everyone staring at her and clung to Sion timidly. And she was nearly covered by his arm. Out of curiosity, she blinked her eyes and looked out through the gaps. Quite a few of them were attracted and wanted to interact with her secretly.
David cleared his throat to draw their attention back to the meeting. Sion looked poker-faced and glanced around at them. His ruthless voice gave them chills.
"I think that's well understood that this is a very important chance for our company, and you know Queen very well. So, go all out to make the best plan!"
"Mr Carroll, regarding working with Queen, I've got one idea..."
Morgan didn't understand a word of it. She turned to look at Sion and poked his face curiously, wondering why he looked like a heartless robot when he worked.
Did he have magic?
Seeing that, the employee stopped speaking.
Holy shit! What did he just see? That little girl had poked their poker-faced boss's face at the meeting. He thought Sion must fly into a rage and throw the girl out. Not only he, but the rest of them thought that way.
David was looking at them anxiously. But everyone was all taken aback the next second. It turned out that Sion just frowned and went back to his work.
"Go ahead."
During the meeting, everyone had seen the bored little girl pull his sleeve buttons, and play with his computer and she was busy doing something all time. But Sion wasn't mad at all.
The employees could finally say something when the meeting was over. They felt like they just had a dream.
"It seems that Mr Carroll does have a darling daughter!"
"Can't agree more! I've been working in Carroll Group all my life, but I've never seen him is so patient and gentle like that!"
"Gee! Unbelievably, Mr Carroll turns out to be a very considerate father!"
Sion carried Morgan back to his office and didn't give a shit on the gossip. He even didn't know someone had texted the news to Nevaeh.
At that moment, Nevaeh was drinking water. She was so mad to read the text message that she smashed the water glass on the floor.
Who was this damn little girl? Why did Sion spoil her so much?
She must do something, she thought, or the employees of Carroll Group would laugh at her. Nevaeh gnashed, put on her shoes and stormed out. She drove to Sion's company directly. Surely, the receptionist knew her and let her in.
"Miss Burns, what are you doing here?" asked David.
He looked at her and freaked out.
"Where's Sion? I want to talk to him." Said Nevaeh. She was still mad and wasn't in the mood of playing nice. All she wanted to do was ask Sion what he meant by doing that.
"Mr Carroll is in the office..."
Nevaeh went straight to his office before David could finish talking or do something to stop her. She opened the door and saw them sitting shoulder to shoulder. Morgan was watching cartoons on an iPad while Sion was working on his laptop.
What a nice father-daughter picture!
Hearing the door, Sion frowned and looked up.
"Sorry, Mr Carroll," said David, who had followed Nevaeh's back. He didn't see that coming and didn't know what to do at the time.
Sion glanced at Nevaeh and turned to David, "Get back to your work."
He said indifferently after David went out and closed the door, "What brought you here?"
He didn't want to see this woman. She owed him an explanation for spreading the wedding news behind his back.
Morgan saw Nevaeh and lost the mood of watching cartoons instantly, wondering what this bad woman was doing here.
"Sion, sorry. It's our fault." Nevaeh organized her words but couldn't hold back her anger, then blurted out, "But this kid has ruined our wedding party, right? Why did you bring her back?" Nevaeh thought Sion meant to embarrass her.
"What does she have to do with it?" Sion glared at her heartlessly and said sarcastically, "So you thought the wedding would be held as planned if she hadn't ruined it?"
