Chapter 287 – The Big Guy You Can’t Afford to Mess With
“Mom, what are you looking at?” Steven Glendon got into the driver’s seat and, after buckling himself in, found Cecilia Glendon still looking at her phone.
“It’s nothing.” Cecilia Glendon looked back and smiled at Steven Glendon.
She took a deep breath and put her phone away, not thinking about it for now.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
The incident didn’t affect her too much, and in the words of Debby White, it wasn’t really a bad thing.
After arriving at the company, no one mentioned this matter, it seems that the news was deleted in time, not many people know.
Cecilia Glendon pushed things to the bottom of her heart to focus on her work. Sunny Lee’s order was not urgent, and she probably just heard that Cecilia Glendon was back and came to place this order on purpose, and was not in a hurry to attend any event.
In time, Cecilia Glendon slowed down to do the same.
“Cecilia .” Jane Xue knocked on the door of Cecilia Glendon’s office and walked in, “There’s an order here that you need to run through in person.”
Cecilia Glendon stopped working and lifted her hand to take the folder Jane Xue handed her, she opened it and scanned the client information inside.
John Gary, no photo, just a very simple name and contact number.
Cecilia Glendon hesitated: “Can’t we find someone else?”
“I heard that the other party has a background.” Jane Xue said helplessly, “I can’t be offended. Besides, I can’t help it if you are named to design it.”
People have to bow down under the eaves, their studio just set up, can not offend people at this time, especially this Mr. Tan, or a big head.
“Okay.” Cecilia Glendon just had to take it, “Is there an appointment for an interview?”
“Just this afternoon at three o’clock.” Jane Xue said, “At the Sofitel.”
Jane Xue told Cecilia Glendon the room number: “You can just go and meet too, or refuse if this Mr. Tan is too demanding.”
“Good.” Cecilia Glendon had no objection, “I’ll go after lunch.”
“Don’t worry go ahead, Steven I’ll watch your back.” Jane Xue laughed.
Cecilia Glendon nods her head.
After lunch, Cecilia Glendon gave Steven Glendon a few words of advice before driving to the Sofi Hotel.
When she arrived at the reception desk of the Sofi Hotel, Cecilia Glendon gave her room number: “A Mr. Tan asked me to come over to talk about something.”
“Yes, please wait a moment.” The receptionist smiled and nodded, then dialed the room’s intercom and carefully inquired about the authenticity of Cecilia Glendon’s words and received a positive confirmation before saying to Cecilia Glendon, “Inside, please.”
“Please.” Cecilia Glendon said politely, while turning around and heading for the elevator.
The room was on the top floor, and a few dozen seconds later, Cecilia Glendon stepped out of the elevator door. She looked around and found her way before counting from room to room.
I don’t know why, but when she stopped at the door of that room, there was a small touch of nervousness in her heart.
I don’t know where this tension is coming from.
She took a deep breath, then raised her hand and knocked on the door.
The knock on the door was loud in the silent corridor, and within a few moments, the door to the room was opened.
Cecilia Glendon, upon seeing the person who opened the door, the words she had prepared in advance were surprisingly stuck directly in her throat, unable to speak.
If she remembered correctly, the man who stood in front of her and opened the door was Assistant Gary, right?
Abbott Benson beside Assistant Gary…
Assistant Gary is here, does that mean that Abbott Benson is also here?
Cecilia Glendon’s heart suddenly beat wildly, and she finally understood why she had been nervous earlier.
“Miss Glendon,” Assistant Gary smiled softly when he saw Cecilia Glendon, “Come in.”
Cecilia Glendon had not yet recovered, so how could she walk in as Assistant Gary had hoped, she even took a step back and looked at him warily: “You’re the one who called for an appointment?”
Assistant Gary nodded: “I made the appointment, but it was for the president of my family.”
Sure enough! Abbott Benson is really in there!
Cecilia Glendon was not prepared to meet with Abbott Benson, she thought it would be impossible for her to meet with Abbott Benson in August City, but she never thought that Abbott Benson would find her so soon!
Realizing this, Cecilia Glendon reflexively turned to leave, but the figure of Abbott Benson suddenly appeared behind Assistant Gary.
He looked cold, his eyebrows held a frost, no temperature, handsome face expressionless, so faintly look at Cecilia Glendon, even look at her feet can not move a cent.
As if he sensed Abbott Benson appear behind him, Assistant Gary turned around and bowed his head slightly, “President, I’ll go ahead and get busy then.”
“Hmm.” Abbott Benson hmmed indifferently.
Assistant Gary then walked out with his head down, smiling at Cecilia Glendon as he passed her in passing, “Miss Glendon, you’d better go in, please, don’t make headlines again.”
His words gave Cecilia Glendon a slight jolt… Assistant Gary knew about her headline?
Does that mean the … headline was withdrawn …
Cecilia Glendon’s eyes fell on Abbott Benson, who in turn swept her a faint glance and said, “Come in.” Then turned around and walked inside herself.
His attitude like this made Cecilia Glendon still stand torn in place, but once she thought of him helping herself again, Cecilia Glendon couldn’t do it after all and turned away.
She just had to step inside, closing the door behind her.
This is a presidential suite, decorated with luxury and extravagance, Cecilia Glendon only skimmed two glances before withdrawing her gaze.
She stood at the foyer wondering if she should continue inside, while the man walking in front of her suddenly stopped, turned his head, and narrowed his eyes at her, “What are you doing standing there? I’m not short of door gods.”
Cecilia Glendon felt her face burn a little as she reluctantly moved to walk slowly over to her.
Her actions caught the eye of Abbott Benson, giving him another opportunity to mock her.
His mockery was unconcealed and fell loud and clear into Cecilia Glendon’s ears.
She was discontented and looked up at him, but he had long since closed his eyes and turned his back on her and walked away.
Cecilia Glendon bit her lower lip, how this Abbott Benson is getting more and more obnoxious … and more and more unreadable.
He purposely asked Assistant Gary to call the studio because he was afraid that Cecilia Glendon would not come to see him? That’s why he used this method.
And … why did he help her with that news headline thing this morning?
She thought that day in Greenwich, he suddenly decided to go on a business trip because he didn’t want to see her, or didn’t want to see her again.
But now how to help her solve this?
Cecilia Glendon, even if she thought out of her head, could not understand why Abbott Benson was doing all this.
“What to drink?”
Just as Cecilia Glendon was wondering, Abbott Benson’s voice suddenly interjected.
“What?” Cecilia Glendon asked, not hearing clearly and looking in his direction.
“Drink what?” He wrinkled his brow.
Cecilia Glendon this pursed her lips, “No need.”
Abbott Benson glanced at her, but did not force her, and poured himself a cup of coffee, but still poured her a glass of white water, passing by her side, the glass of water into her hands.
