Cecilia’s expression contorted into a sneer. She found Mark’s behavior utterly incredulous— taking his female subordinate on a business trip with inappropriate intimacy while still seeking affection from his old flame.
In her mind, Mark was nothing but an insufferable jerk.
Downstairs, Mark trailed after Cecilia and noticed the car window open.
He furrowed his brow and approached Cecilia, stating, “I brought her here for business.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUnperturbed, Cecilia responded calmly, “Mr. Evans, there’s no need to explain anything to me. Besides… Can you honestly claim that you’ve never been intimate with her?”
Mark fell silent.
It was true, they had a one-night stand in the past but now they were nothing more than ordinary colleagues.
Cecilia said nothing further. She got into her car, fastened her seatbelt, and accelerated away.
As the red sports car zoomed past him, Mark glimpsed what seemed like teardrops gently tracing down her cheeks…
Was Cecilia crying?
Mark pursed his lips, gazing at the exhaust fumes from her car.
His subordinate Cathy alighted from the vehicle and approached him. “Mr. Evans, is there a misunderstanding between you and Miss Fowler? Would you like me to clarify things for her?”
His heart sank.
Mark turned his head, instantly adopting an impassive expression when he faced his beautiful female subordinate.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith a composed smile, he inquired, “Misunderstanding? She’s merely standing up for her brother.”
He had no intention of revealing his past relationship with Cecilia.
Cathy smiled subtly.
Peter approached, having witnessed the earlier scene. He wiped his brow and chastised the driver, “Why did you bring the car here?”
The driver felt embarrassed and explained, “Miss Wilson requested it.”
Peter then addressed Mark, “Mr. Evans, what do we do now?”
Mark nonchalantly replied, “You head back to the hotel first. I’ll go see Alexis.”
Peter knew Mark’s intentions well. He turned to Cathy and grinned, “It looks like Mr. Evans will be staying at Miss Gordon’s place tonight. It’s a chance for us to relax a bit… Cathy, I’ll take you out for some drinks tonight. Czanch is not as lively as Duefron when it comes to nightlife.”
