Chapter 37
Chloe didn’t utter a word, she just stood there quietly, her back towards Keira, completely ignoring her
That was just how Chloe was, sometimes she didn’t say anything and yet she can make you feel pressured Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Keira gritted her teeth in secret, feeling ignored, but Lance was right there.
Before long, the elevator arrived and Chloe, carrying her bag, casually strolled in Lance and Keira followed behind her into the elevator
Chloe reached out and pressed the twenty–first floor, where the Research & Development Department was located.
As for the two behind her, she didn’t ask nor care, ‘cause that ain’t her job.
She initially planned to tell Lance straight about her resignation when she bumped into him, but seeing Keira, she didn’t even want to say an extra word.
She just loved hogging the limelight and hyping themselves up!
If she brought up the resignation with Lance now, Keira would definitely seize the opportunity to show off. Why gave her the chance to make herself uncomfortable? Keira noticed that Chloe only pressed for her own floor, her heart sank, but then she smirked
She walked up to Chloe and pressed the highest floor number, thirty–six
Then she looked at Chloe with a smile, a hint of provocation in her eyes.
The thirty–sixth floor was Lance’s exclusive area, no one was allowed in without his permission. But now, it was a place she, Keira, can freely enter.
She thought Chloe would care, but Chloe just looked at her, still with an impassive expression, not even a hint of reaction.
Keira clenched her teeth, walked over to Lance and whispered:
“Lance, isn’t there an executive internal meeting at the company? Since Chloe is here…
Lance’s expression stiffened for a moment, looking at Chloe’s back, he was silent for a while before slowly saying
‘Since she’s here, let her join”
The elevator continued upward. Before Lance could finish his words, the twenty–first floor arrived and Chloe walked out without hesitation.
Chloe’s indifference was suffocating for Keira, and her words felt like hitting cotton, never getting through.
Looking at Chloe’s retreating figure, Lance suddenly understood
She really seemed to have let go, not forgiving him, not begging him to stay, decisively leaving no chances between them.
He felt a sense of heaviness in his heart, just like the last time at the hospital, as if he had completely lost something.
“Lance, what can I do to make Chloe feel a little better? Seeing her like this, it really breaks my heart…
Keira’s small voice came from the side, her soft voice trembling, as she looked both strong and helpless, stirred Lance’s sympathy.
He pulled Keira into his arms, lifted her chin with his fingers and wiped the tears from her eyes.
Keira looked even more saddened
“Ever since my sister came back from abroad three years ago, she only went to see grandpa three or four times. Now she has no one to take care of her, I’m really worried she can’t handle it alone.”
Keira’s consideration made Lance treasure her more, her words also hit Lance’s soft spot
Chloe didn’t have a good relationship with her family, and now she was not willing to face him property.
Can she really be okay alone?
Just wait a little longer, until her anger subsides, then I’ll talk to her properly Don’t worry, Chloe is always a sensible person, given some time, she’ll definitely understand
Keira sniffed lightly and nodded, her voice was soft but with a tinge of melancholy, “I really hope so.”
