- Chapter 377 Ignoring His Orders
- “The meeting documents are on your desk. Take a look when you have time.”
- “Thanks!”
- Anna grinned. “No need to be so polite–it’s no trouble at all.”
- Caroline was reaching for the files when her desk phone rang unexpectedly.
- “Hello, this is Caroline from the R&D department. How can I help?”
- Boris’s voice was firm. “Come to my office. Now.”
- “Understood, Mr. Boris.”
- Finished
- She had no idea why he was calling her in, but she didn’t hesitate. She immediately got up and headed over.
- It was already 9:30.
- Boris stood behind his desk, his gaze unreadable as he studied her.
- Something about it made her uneasy.
- “Mr. Boris… Is there a problem?”
- “Did you and David have another argument?”
- Caroline was caught off guard.
- How did he know? Sure, he and David were close, but it wasn’t like they discussed everything, especially something as private as last night.
- “Mr. Boris, I don’t see how that’s relevant to work,” she said calmly. “Did you call me in just to ask this?”
- Boris let out an exasperated sigh. “As much as I enjoy a bit of gossip, I wouldn’t waste time on it before a major meeting. I have no time for this nonsense.”
- “Then… why am I here?”
- “It’s not me. It’s your husband.”
- Caroline frowned. “What do you mean?”
- Boris spread his hands. “Mr. Ellison told me to send you to his office before the meeting starts. Until you see him, the R&D meeting cannot proceed. In other words, this entire meeting is being held up until you go to him first.”
- Caroline’s jaw tightened.
- David was seriously pulling this stunt? Leveraging work and my colleagues to force me into seeing him?
- “I’m not going,” she said without hesitation. “Start the meeting as scheduled, Mr. Boris. If there are any consequences, I’ll take full responsibility.”
- “Work and personal matters should stay separate.”
- “True, but Mr. Ellison doesn’t think that way. He’s the CEO. His orders matter.”
- Boris gestured at the clock.
- 9:35.
- Caroline’s voice was firm. “Mr. Boris, start the meeting. Ignore that lunatic.”
- Boris let out a chuckle. “You’re probably the only one brave enough to talk about him like that.”
- “Am I wrong?”
- Finished
- “Oh, by the way,” Boris added, his expression turning playful, “remember the rumor about Mr. Ellison kissing someone in the elevator? That was you, wasn’t it?”
- Caroline said nothing, but the way her face turned red said everything.
- “Got it,” Boris smirked. “Alright, let’s start the meeting. With you here, I’ve got no reason to worry.”
- At 9:40 sharp, the meeting room was filled, and the discussion began on time.
- Meanwhile, in the CEO’s office, David’s eyes flicked toward the clock. His lips pressed into a thin line.
- Caroline had really ignored him.
- She had completely brushed him off, disregarding his orders without a second thought.
- She was getting bolder by the day…
- At home, he had tolerated her defiance. But here, at work? Did she really think he had no control over her?
- A cold chuckle escaped his lips as he stood up, straightening his tie. Without a moment’s hesitation, he strode toward the R&D department.
- Caroline, focused on her notes, had no idea what was coming her way.
