Crawling Back To Her Series Redemption and Refuse

Book7 Chapter4.

I had never been a drinker, but I got drunk and passed out again.

The next morning, I was awakened by a string of urgent phone calls.

I saw it was my boss, Austin Stevens.

"Ariella, shouldn't your vacation be over today? Why aren't you at the office yet?" "Sorry, Mr. Stevens. I was planning to take one more day off, but I overslept..." "Do you remember when I mentioned opening a new market in Crawford?"

Half a year ago, Austin saw my potential and wanted me to be the general manager of the Crawford branch.

But the office was in Hawkin, and I carefully mentioned it to Xavier, who immediately rejected it.

He didn't give me any reason, just said he couldn't accept a long-distance relationship, let alone one in another country.

He said if I decided to go, we'd break up.

I refused Austin without hesitation, choosing to stay by Xavier's side.

"I remember. Didn't you send Vincent instead? Why..."

"Sigh, just yesterday, Vincent suddenly passed away from an illness. It really caught me off guard. I thought about it, and only you have the ability to take over the branch."

To be honest, I deeply regretted giving up that opportunity.
