She thought it was Monica Usher, but when she saw the na displayed on the screen, Barbara Sutton’s eyes widened!
Even her breathing skipped a beat!
CEO Kingston??
She quickly picked up her phone, the ringtone was still going, this was definitely not a dream!
Before the ringtone ended, Barbara Sutton hurriedly swiped to answer the call, "Hello, CEO Kingston." Her voice lacked confidence.
"Take so paid leave these days," Justin Kingston’s tone was calm, "Spend more ti with Monica Usher, help her through this rough patch in life. When you feel she’s okay, co to the company anyti."
Barbara Sutton was absolutely incredulous, "..." Did CEO withdraw that decision?
"Are you listening?" Justin Kingston asked.
"Yes, yes..." She stamred, "Thank you, CEO! Thank you!"
Afterward, Justin Kingston hung up the phone, and Barbara Sutton held onto her phone in disbelief.
Is this real?
Justin Kingston isn’t firing her?
"Yay~!" Barbara Sutton changed her clothes and headed straight to Monica Usher’s apartnt, bringing breakfast along from downstairs.
She input the fingerprint password and it verified successfully.
Barbara Sutton entered and saw the woman coming out of the bedroom, she asked in good spirits, "Monica, have you had breakfast yet?"
Monica Usher stopped in her tracks, her hair swept back behind her head, "Just got up, not yet. Why are you here so early?"
"I brought breakfast for you, quick, eat it while it’s hot."
Monica Usher told her, "By the way, I went to see Mrs. Kingston last night, she agreed to plead for you in front of CEO Kingston."
"CEO Kingston just called ." Barbara Sutton smiled, "He wants to return to work at the company, thank you, Monica."
"That’s great." Monica Usher accepted the breakfast from her, "I could make noodles, you could have just called with this news. Aren’t you supposed to head to the company? What ti is it?"
"I don’t have to go soon." Barbara Sutton said to her, "CEO Kingston gave a long paid vacation, he wants to help you through this rough period first."
Monica Usher didn’t believe it, how could Justin Kingston care about her well-being?
"Don’t ask for leave around him like this, focus on doing your job well." Monica Usher understood Justin Kingston, he’s always strict, this ti it’s out of respect for Mrs. Kingston.
If he gets bothered, he would find a reason to secretly fire her later.
"Monica, it was really Justin Kingston who called , if you don’t believe , look!" Barbara Sutton showed her the call log, "He asked to go to the company later."
Monica Usher saw the call from Justin Kingston but wasn’t sure what exactly he had told Barbara Sutton.
From Monica Usher’s perspective, Justin Kingston wouldn’t care about her well-being.
At this mont, Mary arrived at Erald Cove.
She had just gotten out of the car, and Mia Lane greeted her in the courtyard.
"Madam!" Mary was very happy.
Mia Lane held her hand, "Long ti no see, from now on call Mia, no need to call madam."
"How could I do that?" Mary smiled, unable to change what she was used to.
"Co on, let’s talk inside." Mia Lane took the suitcase from her hand and linked arms with her as they walked toward the living room.
"I can carry it myself, madam!" Mary was flustered, "I can manage."
"It’s okay." Mia Lane glanced at her, "Didn’t I just ntion? Call Mia, not madam."
"..."
In the living room, Mia Lane said to Aunt Zhou, "Aunt Zhou, please take the luggage upstairs for Mary, she’ll be staying next door to us."
"Yes, madam." Aunt Zhou took the suitcase and went upstairs.
Then Mia Lane said to Mary, "Starting today, you’ll be my assistant."
Assistant? Mary looked into her eyes.
"I’ll take you to the recording studio, the work hours are short every day, and the work is easy."
"Recording studio?" Mary was still confused because she didn’t know about her voice acting role.
"Let’s talk while we walk." Mia Lane again held her hand and led her out of the living room.
Walking so closely together made Mary feel a bit embarrassed, given their differences in status.
The driver opened the car door.
They both got into the car, and Mia Lane started telling her about Gina’s story.
