Michelle's sudden appearance startled me. Why was she here so early in the morning?

After calling me, she nodded and bowed toward Atlas's car obsequiously.

I closed the car door, looked at her, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Oh... It's nothing important. I was just thinking, and I might have gone too far. Nana instigated it all, and I said the wrong things. You're the bigger person here, Chloe, so don't..." She trailed off, trying to apologize.

I glanced at her coldly, not wanting to engage, and said indifferently, "If you're sincere about your apology, then go back. I have things to do."

After saying that, I walked toward the building.

She followed me closely. "Won't you invite me into your office to chat, Chloe? I haven't been to your company yet."

"I'm busy today. Sorry, I have no time to show you around." I refused decisively. Since she had come to apologize so early in the morning, she must have ulterior motives. I didn't have time to deal with her. "Oh, come on, why are you being like this? I don't need you to take me anywhere. I just want to see what your company looks like. We're classmates. That makes us practically family." She clung to me like a parasite, unwilling to let go.

As we reached the entrance, we ran into Carol. Before I could say anything, my phone rang again. I checked, and it was Adrian.
