My Super Sassy Dad: Stop Running Away, Mrs. Quinn!-Chapter 150: Donโt Get the Wrong Idea
Jared Quinn looked down at her walking back with bare feet, a slight furrow between his brows, then he prepared to move over and scoop her up in his arms. ๐ป๐โฏโฏ๐ค๐๐๐๐ฐ๐๐๐.๐ธ๐๐ฎ
"Mr. Quinn," the person following behind spoke up, sharp-eyed spotting the woman entering inside, "When did Jared Quinn have a woman by his side? Is this a case of hiding beauty?"
With a slightly troubled expression, Jared Quinn turned around and lazily sat in the seat Melody Thorne had just been in, which seemed to still carry the warmth from her, making him even more distracted.
"Mr. Quinn?" Kenneth Young felt uncertain about the manโs mood. He had come today for a matter involving Sheryl Lancaster, since Jared Quinnโs position in Stellaria was incredibly influential.
If he could be present at tomorrow afternoonโs event, the media wouldnโt dare make things difficult for her, and perhaps even leverage his identity to stir up some further publicity.
"Mr. Sutton, please speak directly," Simon Sutton coughed lightly,
During the meeting earlier, their CEO unexpectedly spaced out, rejected all the submitted project proposals with a grim face, and astonishingly ended the meeting within half an hour, something that had never happened before.
"Hereโs the thing, Sheryl Lancaster from my company used to be Mr. Quinnโs girlfriend, and sheโs facing some issues nowโcan Mr. Quinn step in to help resolve them?" Kenneth Young spoke up.
As soon as he finished his words, Jared Quinnโs gaze sliced over like a knife,
His office and the room inside were not soundproof, so normal volume could be heard inside.
Simon Suttonโs eye twitched, and he immediately said, "Mr. Young has mistaken, actually our CEO and Miss Lancaster never had anything between them. They were just nominally together, each needed something from the other, never even held hands, let alone having talked about them being in a relationship."
Kenneth Young was incredulous, "How could it be? Last time, at Sheryl Lancasterโs banquet, Mr. Quinn personally sent me wine. Wasnโt that a signal for me to take extra care of Sheryl Lancaster?"
"What wine?" Jared Quinnโs eyes flashed coldly.
"It was the wine you had a server send to me that day, it really was good. I only took a few sips and was drunk," Kenneth Young said, "It seems like someone named Melody Thorne sent it, she said she was your secretary or something."
Melody Thorne "..."
She heard what was said outside, she had sent the wine that day to save Kiki Sutton, damn, why did she end up revealing her name?
Jared Quinn turned back and glanced at the bedroom with a cold expression, speaking in a low voice, "So it was from my secretary, indeed."
"So?" Kenneth Young prompted,
Jared Quinn signaled Simon Sutton with a look.
Simon Sutton coughed again, "Our CEO doesnโt associate with any random people, and the collaboration with Miss Lancaster has concluded. Weโve heard Miss Lancaster and Mr. Young always had an unusual relationship, so the wine that day was merely our CEO wishing you and Miss Lancaster an enjoyable time, Mr. Young, donโt read too much into it."
Kenneth Youngโs face turned completely ashen, his dealings with Sheryl Lancaster were private, "Um...um."
"Please leave, Mr. Young, donโt involve our BOSS with Sheryl Lancasterโs matters next time," Simon Sutton saw their CEOโs persistent displeasure, so issued an eviction order.
Kenneth Young had no choice but to leave,
Finally, peace returned to the office, Jared Quinn casually flipped through a few documents before tossing them aside again.
