Chapter 161:

? ? ? ? ?

Hank no longer dared to challenge his fate.

The idea of ​​losing his salary worried him deeply.

Caden leaned against the window with his eyes closed.

As the car approached his apartment building, he hit a pothole. The sudden jolt made him open his eyes. At that moment, he saw a familiar figure standing by the window of the second-floor library.

I have focused on the figure.

"Stop the car here," he ordered.

Hank stopped and said, “Mr. Ward, it's raining. “Can I give you a ride to the garage?”

Caden continued to watch the figure in silence.

At first, he felt a slight sense of recognition, but as he looked further, he confirmed that the figure was indeed Alice.

Hank looked where Caden was looking.

From that distance, the figure was a little indistinct, but he could make out that it was a woman.

When she shifted slightly, revealing part of her face, Hank recognized her instantly. “Miss Bennett!” I have exclaimed.

Caden then opened the car door. “Drive back,” he ordered.

Caden remained calm and reserved, showing no outward signs of excitement.

It was like he was preparing for a tedious business meeting instead of going to meet a woman. In a way, I approached it like a project.

And this project was worth billions.

Hank tried to suppress a laugh, but couldn't resist teasing him. "Mr. Ward, there's no hurry. Mrs. Bennett isn't going anywhere. Take an umbrella so you don't get soaked." I have offered the umbrella to him with a smile.
