A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 87

Jason saw Eleanor staring blankly at the building in front of her with her head up, so he gently nudged her, “Ms Shultz, follow me” Eleanor snapped out of it, following Jason into one of the somewhat floating buildings.

The security system of the Laurence Group was very strict, and outsiders had to verify their identities to enter, otherwise the door wouldn’t open at all.

As they were verifying their identities, Sophie walked in with a group of executives.

She greeted Jason and then turned her head to look at Eleanor who was following behind him. She said, “Mr Clowers, do you mind if I have a few words with Eleanor?”

“Ms. Shultz is your employee, why would I mind?” Jason didn’t like the tone of Sophie’s voice, seemingly polite but with a hint of uncomfortable sarcasm.

However, since Eleanor was an employee of the Ratliff Group, he couldn’t comment further,

He told Eleanor, “I’ll go ahead and wait for you inside.” After saying that, he led the Clowers Group employees in.

As soon as Jason left, Sophie smiled slightly at Eleanor, “Eleanor, it seems you did a good job hosting Mr. Clowers.”

This remark was followed by a contemptuous look from Sophie.

Sophie added, “You know, not just anyone can come to the Lauren Group’s bidding conference, but Mr. Clowers brought you along. Looks like he thinks highly of you.”

On the word “highly,” she deliberately prolonged the sound, as if hinting that ‘he doesn’t appreciate your work, but rather something else.

Eleanor could hear the sarcasm hidden in her words but felt it was pointless to argue with her, so she remained silent.

The ignorance from Eleanor made Sophie’s expression turn cold, but she quickly smiled amiably, “You did well, I’ll give you a raise when we get back.”
