Chapter 1667: Impressive as always

[PRIME GROUP: CEO's Department]

Shawn furrowed his brows, looking at the empty spot where Hayley would usually spend her day working.

"Teddy, what do you think is going on?" he asked, shifting his focus to Teddy. "Not just Hayley, but Patricia was also absent. Then Miss Penny is running late today."

"Miss Penny has an emergency to attend to." Teddy kept his focus on his work while responding indifferently. "Didn't you get the memo? I had to move her schedule. You should be up to date with that as well."

Shawn sighed. "I know that Miss Penny has an emergency, but isn't it strange that she suddenly approved Patricia and Hayley's leaves when the two of them were in the middle of a task?"

"Don't overthink it," he said. "There's probably a good reason for that."

After saying that, Teddy resumed his work. However, unlike his detached demeanor, he couldn't help but wonder the same thing.

Shawn sighed once more, nodding as he reluctantly picked up where he left off. With that, the two of them quietly worked in the department. It didn't take long for them to notice the difference in Hayley's and Patricia's absence.
