Chapter 270 Apologize to You on Behalf of Daddy
Adele quickly retracted his gaze and his body unconsciously tensed up. He straightened his face and stood in place.
Assistant Liu also saw this and immediately stood in a proper manner.
When Damon approached, they respectfully bowed and greeted him. “Good morning, Mr. Yusuf.”
Damon raised his eyes and his gaze swept past Adele’s face. Seeing that her complexion was rosy and her spirit was much better than last night, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
His gaze only paused for a second before quickly moving away. “Bring me a cup of coffee,” he said indifferently.
Adele agreed and immediately went to the pantry to prepare.
When the coffee was ready, she carried the cup to the office, walked to the table, and carefully put the cup down.
After that, she bowed and turned to leave.
“Who told you to leave?”
The man’s voice suddenly sounded. Adele stopped in her tracks and immediately turned around to look at him.
She was a little flustered. If he didn’t let her go, what was he going to do…
Adele took a deep breath and glanced at Ben who was beside him. He was a little confused about Damon’s meaning and asked, “Mr. Yusuf, do you have any other instructions?”
Damon raised his eyes and looked at her with his dark and deep eyes.
The man paused for a moment, then asked, “Have you drunk the medicine?”
Adele was stunned. She obviously did not expect him to ask such a question. After all, they were in the company, and there was a Ben standing next to them. This question sounded ambiguous.
However, he had already asked, and she had to answer. She could only bite the bullet and say, “Eat it.”
“Okay, let’s go out.”
When the man heard this, he retracted his gaze and continued to flip through the documents in his hands as if nothing had happened.
Adele bit her lips and walked out of the office, feeling a little strange.
Was Damon concerned about her? But why did she feel that something was strange?
Shaking her head, Adele did not think too much about it and immediately returned to her office to start working.
Unknowingly, an entire morning passed. Adele’s stomach rumbled several times. She was about to go to the company staff cafeteria to eat something when her phone suddenly rang.
She picked it up and looked at it. When she saw the caller ID on the screen, her face suddenly paled and her scalp felt a little tight.
This person was someone she had never expected.
Her heart was beating faster and faster. Adele took two deep breaths and slowly recovered.
She pressed the answer button and put the phone to her ear. “Hello? Miss Moore.”
The next second, a woman’s soft laughter came from the other side. “Miss Wes, are you free now? I want to see you.”
The woman’s voice was very gentle, completely consulting with her, so she had no way to refuse at all.
Although Adele could not guess the purpose of Clara coming to her, she was embarrassed to refuse directly since she had said so. She had to agree. “Yes, where do you want to meet?”Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Let’s go to the coffee shop downstairs. I’m already here. Just come down directly.”
Adele was a little surprised when she heard this, but she still agreed. “Okay, I’ll go down now. Wait a minute.”
Clara was already waiting downstairs, indicating that she was ready to look for her today.
After hanging up the phone, Adele did not have time to eat. She immediately stepped into the elevator. Looking at the descending numbers on the elevator, she felt a little uneasy.
Did Clara come to find her because Ye Fengpeng smashed her with a porcelain cup yesterday, or something related to Damon?
Before she could think clearly, the elevator rang and pulled her back to reality. She stepped out of the elevator and unconsciously straightened her back.
In a row of bright windows on the first floor of the office building, there was indeed another coffee shop. Adele had been there often before and arrived at the door in a few minutes.
Pushing the door open and entering, she looked up at the entire coffee shop. When she saw Clara, she was slightly stunned.
She did not come alone. Beside her sat a long-haired woman in a black dress. The two of them sat side by side and were whispering something to each other.
As if sensing Adele’s gaze, Clara looked up and saw her. He smiled slightly at her and waved.
Adele took a deep breath, walked over, and sat down opposite them.
Adele nodded at her and greeted, “Miss Moore.”
“What do you want to drink?”
Clara said, raising his hand to call the waiter.
“A cup of pure water is enough.” “I wonder why Miss Moore is looking for me?” Adele said lightly.
Although Clara had a smile on her face, she could feel that she was not very happy.
Seeing her cut to the chase, Clara no longer beat around the bush. He glanced at her forehead and said softly, “I heard that Dad accidentally hurt you yesterday, so I wanted to come and see you. Are you okay?”
Adele looked up and met Clara’s eyes. He paused and said softly, “Nothing. Thank you for Miss Moore’s concern.”
“I understand my dad’s personality. He is not someone who will lower his head, so I came today to apologize on his behalf.”
As Clara spoke, she suddenly stood up and deliberately walked to the side. She bent ninety degrees at Adele and said sincerely, “I’m sorry, Adele.”
Adele was a little surprised. She did not expect that a young lady of the Ye family had such good upbringing. Her father had done something wrong, and she actually ran over and bowed to her to apologize. Her heart softened. Just as she was about to say that it was okay, an unhappy female voice suddenly came from the side.
“Clara, what are you doing? Why are you so serious!”
The woman in the black dress stood up indignantly and reached out to pull Clara. At the same time, she glared at Adele fiercely.
“Xuanxuan, Dad was indeed wrong in this matter. I should apologize to Adele on his behalf.” “Adele, don’t mind.” Clara looked up at Adele and said softly.
Hearing this, Adele looked at her with a complicated mood.
Originally, she was really disgusted with Ye Fengpeng’s behavior, but she did not expect that he had a good daughter who actually apologized to her on his behalf. The anger that had accumulated in her heart had mostly dissipated because of her.
Adele shook his head and smiled at her. “It’s okay. It’s all in the past. I won’t take it to heart.”
Hearing her say this, Clara smiled. He took out an exquisite small box from his bag and pushed it in front of Adele. “This is a small gift for you. It’s a bracelet. See if you like it.”
Adele was stunned and quickly said, “No need. Thank you, Miss Moore. I won’t accept the gift…”
Xuanxuan, who was sitting next to him, couldn’t help but roll her eyes. She stared at Adele with a strange hostility, which made people shiver in the bottom of their hearts.
“Clara, aren’t you being too good to her?” Xuanxuan’s voice rang out. “Women are always acting like this. Don’t be fooled by her!”
Clara seemed to be in a bit of a dilemma. He reached out and tugged at the corner of her clothes. “Alright, Xuanxuan, stop talking.” He said softly.
However, the more she refused to tell her, the more excited she became. Xuanxuan swept a cold glance at Adele and then turned back to look at Clara. “Clara, are you stupid? It’s not like you don’t know where Damon spent the night yesterday! Why are you so good to a woman who stole your future husband!”
Xuanxuan’s voice was very loud. When she said these words, everyone around looked at her.
Even Adele was stunned. She twisted her hands together and looked up at Clara.
Clara actually knew about what happened to Damon at her place yesterday?
