Fatal Love：CEO, please let me go

Sherry suddenly reacted and couldn’t help but be shocked. The questions that had been stuck in her heart became more and more complicated.

Could it be that there was really some hidden secret between Adele and Damon?

This thought flashed through Sherry’s mind, and in the next second, she denied it herself.

How could Mr. Yusuf like a woman like Adele? She must be pestering him relentlessly and shamelessly!

Watching Adele walk further and further away, Sherry slowly clenched her fists. She was silently determined in her heart. If she caught any evidence next time, she would definitely not let this woman off easily!

“Achoo!”

Adele inexplicably felt a chill on her back. As soon as she got into the lift, she sneezed loudly.

Did someone miss her?

She rubbed her nose and didn’t think too much about it. She watched the lift stop on the floor of the Administrative Department and then got out of the lift.

Just as she walked to the Administrative Department, a colleague walked toward her. “Ms. Wes, Corine is looking for you. She is waiting for you in the office.”

Corine?

Adele’s heart tightened and she immediately straightened up. She thanked her colleague and hurried in the direction of the supervisor’s office.

It was almost time to get off work, and why would Corine want to find her at this time?

Adele’s heart was beating fast. When she arrived at the office door, she raised her hand and knocked on the door. When she heard a reply from inside, she pushed the door open and walked in.

Corine sat in front of the desk and waved at her. “Adele, come here.”

“Corine, what’s wrong?”

“I have heard that you are responsible for the holiday welfare. You have just been promoted and this is your first task. It will be more or less difficult for you, but you must do it well. First of all, you also know that this holiday benefits concern the morale of the employees, which is very important for the company.”

“Second, now that you have been promoted to the position of administrative assistant, many people in the department are not convinced. This is the first task you have taken over after you have been appointed. You must do it well. Only in this way can everyone be convinced. Do you understand?”

Corine’s words made Adele’s heart tighten. She nodded. “Corine, I understand.”

It was not that she did not feel the change in the attitude of her colleagues in the department. Therefore, the first task was very important to her. She also wanted to prove herself through this opportunity.

“It’s good that you know.” Corine nodded. “You also know my temper. If things don’t go well, I won’t give you any face.”

“Don’t worry, Corine. I won’t let you down.”

“I’m just reminding you. Don’t be too nervous. Go and do your work.”

Adele took a deep breath, turned around, and walked out of the manager’s office.

Today, she had been running outside for a whole day. Her feet were injured from running, but the matter had not been settled yet. It could be seen that this matter was not as simple as she had imagined.

“Sister Grace, shall we go eat barbecue tonight?”

“Sure, up to you guys. Anyway, we don’t have to work overtime recently.”

“…”

Hearing the sounds of laughter, Adele looked up and saw several female colleagues chatting in the tea area. The one who was surrounded was Grace.

Adele’s eyes lit up. She suddenly had an idea and walked towards them.

As soon as she approached, the few people who were joking over there fell silent at the same time. Grace looked up and saw Adele. A trace of coldness flashed through his eyes.

“Sister Grace, do you have time? I have something to ask you.”

Corine said that she could ask Grace about things she did not understand at any time. Now that she had encountered a difficult problem in her work, Grace should not sit idly by.

“What is it?” Grace held a cup and took a sip of tea. Her attitude toward Adele was clearly a little distant.

Adele looked at her colleagues who were standing beside Grace, unwilling to leave. She took a deep breath and said, “It’s about work. I want to ask you alone.”

“Work?” Hearing this, a hint of ridicule appeared in Grace’s eyes. “You shouldn’t ask me about work, should you?”

She straightened her back and continued without waiting for Adele’s reply, “It took me three years to get promoted from an ordinary employee to an administrative assistant, including my internship period. As soon as you graduated, you only stayed in Yusuf Group for two years, and now you have been promoted. It means that you must have something that others can’t compare to! I should learn from you.”

As soon as these words came out, several colleagues at the side laughed at the same time, and they looked at Adele with some inexplicable irony in their eyes.

Adele stood where she was and felt her cheeks burning.

There was nothing wrong with what Grace said at first, but anyone with discerning eyes could tell that this was slapping her face in front of everyone, clearly saying that her position was not justified.

Seeing that she did not say a word for a long time, Grace smiled and said to her colleagues, “This holiday welfare is handled by Ms. Wes. Everyone should be looking forward to it. I wonder if this year’s holiday welfare will be more surprising than previous years?”

Adele bit her lips, still unable to say a word.

Originally, she had thought that Grace was a good person, at least she was kind to her.

Rather than continuing to stand here and be humiliated by them, it was better to leave.

Adele glanced at Grace, clenched her fists, turned around, and quickly walked in the direction of her office.

Now that things had come to this, it seemed that there was no other way. She could only rely on herself.

With a sigh, Adele prepared the documents she needed. After work, she went straight back to the villa.

After returning to the villa, she was not in the mood to eat at all. She ate a few mouthfuls and went back to the bedroom to continue checking the information.

The problem she had to face now was how to use the limited funds provided by the company to prepare some welfare gifts that could please most of the employees.

How to use the limited funds to the greatest potential was the biggest problem.

Adele focused on looking at the information and did not notice that the door was gently pushed open.

Damon stood at the door and saw that the woman sitting at the table did not respond at all.

He took a light step forward and slowly walked behind her.

The woman was like a primary school student taking notes, writing and drawing with a few different colors.

Damon stood in place and silently watched her every move. Adele flipped through the information and then bit the pen to think about something, but there seemed to be no progress.

In the end, he finally could not help but ask, “What are you looking at?”

Suddenly, she heard a voice coming from behind her. Adele was shocked. Her body trembled and the documents in her hands fell to the ground.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

She turned around in a panic and was surprised to see Damon standing behind her. “Why are you here?”
