Chapter 266 The Bell Had to Be Fixed!
She raised her hand and subconsciously touched her forehead.
When her fingers touched a sticky feeling, she felt a burst of pain from the wound. She gasped and her body trembled unconsciously.
“Secretary Ruan, your wound can’t be delayed any longer. It will leave a scar!” Assistant Liu was a little anxious and reminded her softly.
Adele looked up and saw her sincere and anxious eyes. Her heart felt warm.
She and Assistant Liu had only just met, and they were not that close. She would care about her, and Damon…
As soon as she closed her eyes, she could still think of the man’s cold gaze just now, as if she was really just an insignificant secretary under him.
Forget it.
“Assistant Liu, I will trouble you with the company. I will go to the hospital.” Adele looked at Assistant Liu and whispered.
“Go!” Assistant Liu quickly nodded.
Adele used a clean tissue to wipe the blood. Afraid of scaring the passers-by, she deliberately found gauze to stick to the wound first, and then hurried out of the office.
When the door opened, she saw the figure outside the door. She was shocked.
“You…”
“Secretary Ruan, I’ll send you to the hospital.” Ben took a step back and lowered her head slightly.
Adele’s heart tightened. She moved her lips and said softly two seconds later, “Okay.”
Since Ben had suggested sending her to the hospital, she did not need to be pretentious.
On the way to the hospital, the car drove steadily and quickly. In less than ten minutes, they arrived at the hospital’s entrance.
Looking at the familiar hospital, Adele was a little hesitant.
This was the hospital closest to the company and also the hospital where Professor Wes was hospitalized. She was a little worried that she would meet her parents. If they saw the wound on her head, they would definitely keep asking.
But now that things had come to this, she could not wait for the wound on her head, so she could only go and bandage it first.
Ben sent her to the outside of the dressing room. It seemed that he was going to go in with her. Adele frowned slightly and turned to look at him. “Assistant Johnson, thank you for sending me here. I will be alone next. You go back first.”
Her attitude was a little cold, completely different from when she spoke to him in the office the day before. Ben also noticed something. He pursed his lips and said softly, “Secretary Ruan, it’s Mr. Yusuf…”
Adele’s head buzzed, and she interrupted him before he could say, “I can do it alone. Thank you, please go back.”
Her voice was deep and cold, with a sense of rejection.
When Ben heard this, he could only stop insisting. He nodded and turned to leave.
When he was far away, Adele was relieved.
She did not want to hear anything related to Damon again, nor did she need his so-called help. Just now in the living room, when Damon and Ye Fengpeng sang and sang together, her heart was already cold.
She was naive to think that Damon kept her by his side again and again, helping her to protect her, and should care a little about her?
But the reality was not, there was no at all, even if her head was bleeding and she was extremely wronged, in front of Clara or people related to Clara, he would not even look at her.
She should have seen through it a long time ago.
Adele sniffed and walked into the dressing room.
The doctor saw the wound on her head and frowned. “Little girl, how did you do this? The wound on your face might leave a scar…”
Adele clenched his cold hands and replied with a bitter smile. He did not say anything.
At least every time she looked in the mirror, she would remind her that she was nothing in Damon’s heart.
At the same time, outside the dressing room, Ben stood in a hidden corner, observing the situation in the dressing room at all times.
He raised his hand and edited a message to report the situation to Damon.
Soon, his phone rang and he received a reply, “Continue to guard and ensure that she is safe home.”
And the person who sent this message was sitting on the sofa at the desk, with a faint smile on his lips, looking at Ye Fengpeng opposite him.
From just now to now, Ye Fengpeng had been beating Tai Chi for a long time. Damon knew clearly in his heart, and soon, he was going to tell the purpose of his visit.
“Uncle, have a sip of tea to moistenyour throat.”
Damon picked up the teapot next to him and refilled Ye Fengpeng’s tea. Then, he put down the teapot unhurriedly and took the lead to talk about the main topic. “Uncle, the public opinion of Ye Group has been making a lot of noise these two days. Do you have any countermeasures?”
Ye Fengpeng was a little surprised. It seemed that he did not expect that Damon would speak first about this matter. He paused, and a bit of sadness flashed across his face. He sighed, “Sigh, to tell you the truth, I came this time because I wanted to…”
Before he finished speaking, Damon had already opened his mouth and said in a bright voice, “Uncle, in fact, no one can help you with this matter. Aren’t you very clear in your heart? There is an old saying that the person who cured the bell should be the one who tied the bell. At this time, whether the Ye family can resolve the crisis or not depends on what you do.”
His words directly blocked Ye Fengpeng’s request before he could say it out loud.
Ye Fengpeng’s face was a little green. He paused for a moment, but it was not good to flare up. He sighed, “Now it is not so simple.”
“Indeed.” Damon narrowed his eyes slightly and said word by word, “On the day of the incident, it was the best time for the Ye family to make a move. You only need to apologize to the public and give a reasonable solution. You also promised that such a thing would not happen in the future and that you would be able to save some losses in time. But now, it is a little late.”
“At this time, no matter who it is, as long as they help the Ye family, they will become the new target of public criticism. Uncle, do you understand this principle?”
Damon did not beat around the bush and told the truth of the matter. Sure enough, Ye Fengpeng’s face was a little ugly.
He had already explained that he was obviously not going to help the Ye family.
“Uncle, let me advise you, at this time, publicly apologize, and the only way to compensate those farmers is the only way. Although the effect has been discounted, it is still better than nothing.”
Ye Fengpeng’s eyes moved slightly, and there was hesitation in his eyes, but in the end, he had nothing to say.
Damon’s attitude had already made it clear that they, Yusuf Group, would not help the Ye family. The only person who could save the Ye family was himself.
Five minutes later, Damon swept across the empty sofa in front of him, and his eyes stopped on the teacup that was still steaming.
From the look in his eyes to his face, it was cold inch by inch. In the end, there was only a cold light in the bottom of his eyes.
How could he help that old fox Ye Fengpeng? Not to mention what he had done to the Ye family before, even what he had done to Adele today, he had remembered it all!
The man frowned, raised his hand, and directly swept the tea set used by Ye Fengpeng on the table into the trash can next to him.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
The hospital dressing room.
After wrapping up the wound, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Adele’s forehead.
Needless to say, the wound was quite painful.
“I gave you a tube of ointment. When it scabs, you apply the ointment twice a day.”
The doctor gave a few more instructions, and Adele noted them all down. Only then did she take the list to the hall on the first floor to pay for the medicine.
She didn’t know if it was because of the wound on her head, but she actually felt a little dizzy and her limbs were weak. She really wanted to sleep.
She lined up to receive the medicine, turned around and was about to walk to the door when a gentle male voice suddenly came from the side.
“Adele?”
Hearing the familiar voice, Adele turned around. She didn’t expect to see Owen standing not far away, looking at her with some surprise.
