Reckless Marriage Unyielding Love

Chapter 176

After the meeting today, Mikayla felt quite inspired.

Coming out of the meeting room, Mikayla locked herself in her office and began a new round of work.

It wasn't until 5:30 PM when her phone rang right on time.

Typing away, Mikayla glanced at the blinking name on her phone screen. Sliding to answer, she put the call on speakerphone. "Wait for me for half an hour," Mikayla said.

"Haven't you finished work yet? You're really becoming a business powerhouse, Mikayla," Juliet's voice boomed over the line. Mikayla sighed, "I'm not as free as you think!"

"Whatever! I'll be waiting for you at Universal Mall! Since you have plenty of drivers, I won't come to pick you up," Juliet said.

After the call, Mikayla remembered that Carlos had left early in the morning and hadn't told him that she was going shopping with Juliet after work. Mikayla paused her work and dialed Carlos's number.

"Hey, Mika." Carlos picked up after just a couple of rings.

"Carlos, Juliet invited me to go shopping after work today, so you don't need to come pick me up."

"I'm already downstairs," Carlos replied.

Mikayla glanced at her work and said, "You probably need to wait about ten minutes."

"Okay."

After the call, Mikayla finished up her remaining tasks, tidied her desk, and went downstairs.
