Chapter 155

When the press conference started, everyone was asked to turn off their phones. No one was allowed to take pictures.

As Caroline turned her phone off, Bryan returned. He looked a lot better, but he was still nervous.

“Are you really okay?” She took a bottle of painkillers from her bag and asked, “Do you want some medicine?”

Bryan smiled bitterly and waved his hand. “I’m fine.”

Fortunately, the project manager for Dragon went on stage then, diverting Caroline’s attention. Bryan finally had a chance to breathe. He wondered if Avery had warned Kirk yet.

He was so uneasy that he didn’t even listen to all the concepts that usually interested him.

Meanwhile, Charles walked backstage and ordered, “The president is coming soon. You have to handle the security work properly. Got it?”

Everyone backstage stopped what they were doing and nodded in unison. These people were all Charles‘ experienced subordinates. Charles had no doubts about their abilities.

Charles walked away, then turned back around. He said, “Oh, yeah. Show me the registry.”

The staff member responsible for the registration turned pale and handed the registry to Charles with trembling hands.

Charles glanced at the paper, then frowned. “Why are all the words the same?”

“Oh.” The staff fiddled with his fingers. “I accidentally spilled something on the registry just now, so I wrote a new copy.”

Charles only warned him to be careful next time before returning the registry. Then, he left to pick up Kirk.

After watching Charles leave, the staff members let out a sigh of relief.

Charles walked out the back door, where a black car was discreetly parked. It wasn’t noticeable at all. He approached the vehicle and said through the window, “Sir, everything is ready. You can go in 15 minutes.”

The window rolled down, revealing Kirk’s handsome face. He was wearing sunglasses, and he

Kirk looked over to Charles. His gaze was cold, but his expression was much softer than usual.

Charles boldly asked, “Are you in love with her, sir?”
