Chapter 59
Samantha had initially planned to use this opportunity to get closer to Ethan–maybe try to talk some sense into him, work on shifting his mindset little by little.
But now, she couldn’t even see him. How was she supposed to do anything if she didn’t even get the chance?
“I’ll take the tray out first. You should take your medication about half an hour after your meal. You can apply the ointment now. If you need any help, I’ll check in on you when come back.”
“Alright, thank you.” Samantha thought the doctors and mirses at this private hospital were really kind and gentle
As soon as the nurse lett, Simon appeared at the door. “I came to pass on a message.”
“Mr. Garrett said he’s unblocked your mumber,”
–
Samantha’s response was completely indifferent, giving away nothing
Simon hesitated before adding, “Ms. Newton, maybe you should try being a little nicer to Mr. Garrett. If he’s in a good mood, it will make things easier for everyone at the company.”
Simon was too embarrassed to admit that Leonardo had been in a bad mood for the past few days because Samantha had stood him up. Everyone at Evergreen Corporation.had been walking on eggshells, afraid that any mistake would get them ticed.
If Samantha were willing to say something to make Leonardo feel better, their lives would be so much easier.
Samantha kept her head down. Simon couldn’t even tell if she was actually listening.
He sighed. He’d done his part. Whether she took his advice or not wasn’t his problem. With that, he left the hospital.
At Evergreen i
en Corporation, Simon handed Leonardo the medical report from the hospital. Leonardo flipped through it, confirming everything was fine before putting it awON.
When he looked up, he noticed Simon was still in his office, “What is it?”
Simon forced a smile. He seriously didn’t want to bring this up, but he didn’t have much of a choice. He was just an assistant, after all. He didn’t have the authority to make decisions for his boss, especially when the person involved was connected to Yvette.
“Ms. Johnson is here again. She brought a fruit basket this time. She said she wanted to see y you. Should I let her in?
The moment Leonardo heard that name, his irritation spiked. He didn’t even speak he just shot Simon a look so sharp that the latter instinctively shrank back Simon’s gut told him this wasn’t going to end well.
He made a last–ditch efion to explain himself, “I did stop her from coming up this time! I won’t let her in without your permission.”
“Tell her to get lost!”
“Understood. I’ll send her away immediately.” Simon quickly left the office to handle it
Leonardo picked up his phone and dialed a number. Yvette’s pleasant voice came through from the other end of the line. In all these years, this was the first time Leonardo had ever called her.
“To what do I owe the pleasure, Leo?”
“If you ever send someone to bother me again, I’ll never work with your company again.”
Pannerdlop opportunities with Evergreen Corporation were among the most sought–after in the industry.
Yvette had taken advantage of the shows long–standing ties with the Games plenty of times, whether it was securing exclusive fashion pieces or antists special deals. Losing thus connection would be a huge loss for her.
