The meeting lasted for a long time. When it was finally over, everyone packed up and was ready to leave the conference room.

Sam held it in for several hours. From time to time, he glanced at Maddox's side profile and wanted to whisper into his ears. He wanted to tell him that Mrs. Yardley was waiting in his office.

However, thinking that Minerva told him not to tell him that she was here, Sam resisted the urge to do so.

Therefore, as soon as the meeting ended, Sam walked up to Maddox and said in a low voice.

"Mr. Yardley."

Maddox's focus was still on the documents.

His thin lips moved slightly, "Speak."

"Mrs. Yardley..."

Upon hearing these words, Maddox paused and suddenly raised his head to look at him.

This sharp gaze gave Sam chills down his spine, and he unconsciously took a step back. "Sir..."

"What are you trying to say?"

Maddox stared at him. He clearly heard Sam say "Mrs. Yardley" earlier.

He didn't think that he heard him wrongly.

"Sir, I just want to tell you that Mrs. Yardley is here, and she is waiting for you in the office."

As soon as he finished his words, Maddox got up in front of him. Without packing up, he went straight out of the conference room.

"What the hell! No wonder Minerva didn't let me tell him. Mr. Yardley is so crazy!"

Sam quickly caught up with him, "Mr. Yardley."

Maddox stopped, somewhat impatient. "Is there anything else?"
