Chapter 591
Sylvia immediately turned around and went downstairs to a street next to the Art Academy.
It was the end of school hours, so most of the snack bars were occupied by students.
Sylvia came to a small but cozy restaurant.
The owner was very welcoming and asked her what she wanted to eat as soon as she entered.
She ordered a main and two sides before going inside, intending to sit down at the innermost window
seat.
However, before she could do that, she saw that someone was already sitting there.
That person was Thomas Carter.
What was even more embarrassing was that the moment
she saw him, he also looked up and spotted her. His eyes were clear and cold as usual, but his lips
were curled up in a shallow smile.
“…Hi.” Sylvia smiled stiffly.
Thomas asked, “Did you come here to get take-out?” Sylvia’s eyes twitched. She was just about to look
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfor an excuse to bluff her way through when the boss brought
her order over and asked with a smile, “Your order is ready, Miss. Where would you like to sit?”
The expression on Sylvia’s face froze.
Thomas looked at her quietly.
After choking for a moment, she pointed to Thomas’ table. “I’ll sit here.”
She sat down in the empty seat opposite Thomas. The boss also put down the dishes that she had
ordered.
Thomas had come earlier than her and also ordered something. However, his meal looked clear and
bland.
She did not think much of it and picked up the cutlery to eat her meal.
Thomas did not mention her supposed take-out order, so Sylvia had a pretty smooth lunch.
After eating, they went back to the Art Academy together.
Their journey back was very quiet, and only when they reached the office door did Sylvia say to him,
“I’ll be heading back to my office now. Bye, Thomas.” Thomas hummed in reply. She turned around and
went into her office.
Thomas looked at her closed door and silently smirked.
At the same time, in Carter Tower.
At the top floor, in Odell’s office.
Cliff knocked on the door and entered. When he saw the man working inside, he frowned and said,
“Master Carter, the police sent word that Mr. Weiss has run away. He was gone when they tried looking
for him at his house. His wife and children also left Westchester City a few days ago. However, the
police have already sealed off all the entrances and exits of Westchester City. They won’t allow him to
escape.”
Odell’s eyes turned cold, and he said, “Put up a reward. Whoever finds him first will get a cash reward
of five million.”
Cliff quickly said, “Understood , Master Carter. I’ll make the arrangements.”
Spencer Weiss was a senior executive of the company, as well as a small shareholder. Some time ago,
the company had gotten into trouble because he had embezzled the public funds of a large project,
leading to massive problems with the project. If not for Odell’s swift and decisive efforts to turn the
situation around in one night, Carter Corporation would have been facing a larger crisis now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFurthermore, Spencer had been promoted to his position by Odell, yet he had still dared to do such a
thing behind Odell’s back. With the issuing of the order offering this
reward, Spencer would most likely be caught soon. With Odell’s temper, he would probably rot in jail for
the rest of his life.
However, he would reap what he had sowed. Cliff finished speaking and headed out.
As he walked to the door, he suddenly thought of something and gave a careful look at Odell.
Odell noticed it and said in a cold voice, “What is it?”
Cliff whispered, “I just received news that the Madam ate lunch with Second Master Carter. They ate in
a small restaurant next to the Art Academy.”
Odell’s expression instantly darkened.
Cliff quickly said, “However, they went to the restaurant separately, so it seems that they met by
accident. Furthermore, they went straight to their respective offices after eating. There was no other
communication.”
Odell’s expression was still extremely cold.
Cliff shivered and said in a low voice, “Master Carter, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave now.”
Odell did not say anything, and the atmosphere was very quiet.
Cliff bowed his head and went out.
The man sat where he was, his hand squeezing the pen so
