During that day's meeting, everyone noticed that there was something wrong with Maddox. From the moment he stepped into the conference room with a livid face, the gloomy vibe around him instantly made the entire conference room chilly.
Everyone glanced at each other, not knowing what was going on.
This meeting had gone on multiple times, but there was no satisfactory verdict each time.
Every time, Maddox would delay the meeting due to personal matters.
They wanted to tell him this was not how things should be done. How could personal matters interfere with work? However, it was Maddox, after all. They would rather have more meetings than infuriate him. Therefore, no matter how discontented they were, they could only hold it in.
However, Maddox brought his unresolved emotions into the meeting. They were more terrified. How were they going to have their meeting? After they stared at each other, someone carefully tried to say something.
"Mr. Yardley, did you send the gift you mentioned?" Hearing the word "gift", Maddox instantly looked up at the person who asked the question. His eyes were like piercing knives. That guy immediately shut up and did not dare to speak again. After a while, Maddox said indifferently, "Let's start the meeting." Everyone fell silent and was doubting whether they were seriously going to have this meeting. Thus... In the beginning, everyone was trembling with fear. Later, when they found that Maddox was staring at them indifferently, they gradually began to discuss boldly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhile listening to the discussion, Maddox's mind was filled with the aggrieved look on Minerva's face. Beanie's innocently cute expression appeared too.
"Mr. Yardley?" Maddox suddenly cto his senses. Someone was calling out to him. He looked up at the person.
"What do you think of this suggestion?" Maddox paused for a moment before parting his thin lips, "Alright." He said so although he didn't hear anything earlier.
Everyone was silent and then they subconsciously looked at each other. Everyone knew that he wasn't paying attention to their discussion.
Sam, who was standing by the side, could not bear to watch any longer. He walked up to Maddox and whispered something into his ear.
At first, Maddox's expression was normal, but after listening to Sam's retelling, he suddenly frowned and sneered.
"Who was the one who cup with this proposal? You've worked at the Yardley Corporation for so many years. How could you suggest such a stupid idea?" Everyone was speechless.
He just said that it was okay, didn't he? Was he biting his own tongue now? Maddox glanced around the room with his piercing eyes, "Has everyone ran out of things to do at work? So you think that you can use anything to prevaricate me?" Sam clenched his lips and coughed lightly. Then, he whispered something into Maddox's ear.
However, his thoughts drifted away again. After Sam finished, he sat there as if he was possessed and didn't respond.
One of the bolder people asked in a low voice.
"Assistant Sorrento, why don't we dismiss the meeting? We can continue this meeting once Mr. Yardley is done with his personal matters." Hearing this, everyone's faces changed as they glanced at Maddox.
They were afraid that he would suddenly get mad.
Never did they expect Maddox to remain in his seat without moving an inch. It was as if he didn't hear anything. Everyone was stupefied.
Sam was silent for a moment, and then he said, "All of you are dismissed. We will continue this meeting once Mr. Yardley is done with his matters." Sam had already spoken. Everyone did not continue to stay in their seats. One after another, they packed their things and left the meeting room.
When Maddox regained his senses, he realized that the meeting room was empty.
He was taken aback for a moment, and then he frowned unhappily, "Where is everyone?" Sam stood beside him speechlessly. "I told them to leave." Upon hearing this, Maddox's sharp eyes suddenly swept over him. Sam only felt a chill run down his spine, but he straightened his back and said, "I didn't mean to let them go, but you're way too absent-minded. You were not listening to everything they said. If you weren't who you are... I'm afraid they would be mad." Maddox pursed his thin lips and then said indifferently, "Are you asking for a death wish?" This murderous vibe...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSam took a step back and felt nervous down his back. He coughed lightly and then said, "No, but there are sthings that I have to say. You have been handling Young Madam recently, right? In the past, you treated your work professionally and wouldn't let your private matters affect your work, but recently, your private matters are intervening with your work. This is not a good sign." Hearing this, Maddox looked up.
"Are you blaming me?" Sam's mouth twitched, "Young Master Yardley, I'm not blaming you. It's just my personal opinion!" "Get lost." Maddox did not show any mercy as he told him to scram. Sam was a little discouraged as he helplessly opened his mouth and "If this there will be no end to this meeting. Sir... I have been very occupied with work recently. I don't mind taking up this case myself. Why don't you... go and handle the Young Madam first?" Maddox thought of Beanie and Minerva meanwhile. He pursed his thin lips and then stared at Sam.
"Letask you. If there are two people in the world who look exactly the same, who could they be to each other?" Sam did not know why he was asking this question, but he could not figure out what Maddox was thinking. He looked into his eyes and asked after giving it sthought, "Two of them look exactly the same? Are they... twins?" Just as he finished speaking, Sam felt Maddox's brows furrow.
Was this not the answer he was expecting? Sam immediately rephrased, "Unless it is cosmetic surgery?" Maddox was speechless.
He raised his head and swept his sharp gaze over him.
"Are you asking for a death wish?"
Sam was dumbfounded. Why did Mr. Yardley suddenly ask this question? Unless they were twins, it should be pretty difficult to find two people who looked exactly the same, right? An idea cto Maddox's mind, "Perhaps they might be father and son?"
"Father and son?" Sam finally got him. He stood still and thought for a while, and then he suddenly reacted, "Young Master Yardley, do you mean..."
He thought of what Young Master Yardley was doing lately and how he o bought many childrens toys. Now he was talking about the father and the son... Unless? Sam was so shocked that he stared at Maddox with wide eyes.
"Sir... Did Young Madam give birth to a baby..." Maddox's eyes were inexplicable. He sat there and did not deny what Sam said. He swallowed hard and walked up to him. "A son?" "And he looks exactly the sas you?" Maddox furrowed his brows in annoyance.
Sam cto his senses and immediately said, "I'm going to look into this matter right away." After that, he turned and headed out. After a few steps, Sam heard a cold voice echoing behind him.
"Stop right there." X
