Chapter 533 A Foreboding Thought

"Miles..."

Harriette smiled. It was best to act casual in that scenario. She believed Miles wouldn't suspect anything, given his feelings for "Harriette". As expected, he didn't find her sitting at his desk strange. "Are you hungry? It's time for lunch. Let's go." Miles reciprocated her smile.

"Right on time! I'd like to try what you always eat!" She cheerfully ran toward him and unreservedly linked arms with him. Then, the two left the office.

The phone continued ringing unattended in the office. It wasn't until they returned from lunch that Harriette rushed into the office and saw the many missed calls on the phone.

"Miles... I'm sorry. I forgot about this..." Harriette seemed apologetic.

Miles reacted calmly and affectionately. "What's there to be sorry about? It's just a few missed calls. Don't worry about it."

He grabbed the phone, knowing that not many knew his private number. When he saw multiple missed calls from the same number, he knew it was probably important and promptly returned the call.

The originally calm Miles shifted his expression after hearing the hospital director's words. "Come again?"

"I thought you knew, Mr. Miles..." How would he know?

His first reaction was to find Rose after the call, but Harriette stopped him. "Miles, is this about Rosie?" He frowned, refusing to say anything.
