Chapter 815

Will raised his eyebrow, "Can't hold it anymore?"

Cole's expression changed slightly; he hacked a sheepish cough. His small eyes now looked as if they had shut

closed.

He rubbed his nose before speaking, "Mr. Darcey, you... you know she's hurt and is worried. Why didn't you ask her

directly?"

"If I asked, it would only make her feel like I'm monitoring her."

Cole was at a loss for words.

You're observing her twenty-four hours a day. Doesn't that count as monitoring?

Even if he had no ill intention but to protect her, she would still be unhappy if she discovered his action without

consulting her will.

Cole held his tongue. He could only nod, "Ah... you're right."

Never dispute nor question the boss because he would never make a mistake!

Will swept a glance at him, and Cole immediately got frigid. He thought for a while and spoke again, "Then...should

we continue with the preparations you asked of us previously? They may not be able to make it back at the

moment."

"Get it ready."

Will said assertively.

Cole acknowledged the task. Seeing that Will had no other requirement, he continued to brief Will on the other

work matters. Linda was in no mood to do anything else after talking to Elisa. She languished for about half an hour

and finally got off work! Without further ado, she dashed to Norman's office!

She wanted to go home with him!

She tried to hold back her frustration and probed her parents only after they got home.

Norman didn't expect his daughter would come to his office. He asked, "Why are you here?"

Seeing that there were other shareholders in Norman's office, she beamed courteously, nodded at them, and then

said to her father, "I want to go home with you."

The shareholder laughed, "You have such a caring and thoughtful daughter, Mr. Benett."

Without a doubt, Norman was delighted to receive the compliment. He smiled, "She is indeed very caring and

thoughtful. You have a good daughter yourself too. She was cute and polite when I saw her last time."

The shareholder smiled and said, "My daughter is such a tomboy. I think cute doesn't suit her. I better get going

since Mr. Benett wants to go home soon."

Norman reciprocated with a smile without saying anything else and then left the office with Linda.

He hadn't felt so peaceful in a long time.

Norman turned to look at Linda, "Why did you suddenly want to go home with Daddy, Linda?"

"I'm worried that you'll have to attend networking functions. You'll then drink too much and damage your health."

"Huh?" Norman was confused, "Isn't it common nowadays to go out and socialize?"

Networking and drinking came hand in hand in business.

Linda smoldered with resentment. She stood aside quietly as she wasn't in the mood to talk to her father.

Norman was oblivious to Linda's frustration and thoughts. He carried on and said. "How was your day? Did you

enjoy working today?"

"No." Linda gave a perfunctory response.

Linda was cold and aloof when Norman casually asked her some more questions.

Their dull and desultory conversation faded as their driver drove them home. Linda dozed off in the back seat.

Norman didn't bother her and quietly browsed his phone.

When they arrived home, Linda promptly opened her eyes and strutted down the car.

Norman followed behind her.

When Rose saw her husband and daughter come home together, she smiled and said. "You guys are back. I've

made dinner. Come, let's eat together."

Quivering with anger, Linda couldn't contain her burgeoning emotion after hearing her mother's words.
