Chapter 521

It’s not yet office hours and not all employees were in place, but someone was already prepping for work at the secretary’s desk by the CEO’s office door.

Upon seeing the boss, Ellinor quickly got up, gave a small bow and said, “Good morning, Mr. Howard!”

Balfour paused in his tracks, looked at her, scrutinized her for a moment, and said quite sternly, “Ms. Mendoza, you look in high spirits, it seems like yesterday’s problems didn’t get to you. Good on you”

Ellinor kept her smile, “You flatter me, Mr. Howard.”

Balfour looked away, like he couldn’t bear to look at her any longer, then walked into his office.

Quinton stayed behind and asked her quietly, ‘Ms. Mendoza, no troubles yesterday, right?”

Ellinor replied. “I’m good, no issues.”

“Good.” Quinton sighed, seemingly sympathizing with Ellinor’s situation.
