Chapter <b>238 </b>
Xander had met Dn before<b>, </b>and he was <b>aware </b>of the rtionship between her and Mnie. He sounded taken aback. “Isn’t she in Hearth City?”
Mnie did not exin. She hung up after saying a few words to Xander.
<b>Her </b>expression returned to normal by the time she came back to the office, but her fingers were still stiff.
Many people were looking her way, but Mnie stood straight and pretended not to notice them.
She looked focused and continued doing her work without interruptions. That was until Julie called her on the phone and told her to go upstairs.
Mnie had no idea what Eugene wanted with her. Her mind felt fuzzy and heavy with thought.
When she got upstairs, she saw Vi present as well.
No wonder Mnie had not seen her in the office.
Mnie pressed her lips. <b>“</b>Is there anything you need from me?”
Eugene’s head was lowered. He was reading something and did not even lift his head when he heard Mnie’s voice. “Hand in all your files on Blue Inc.”
Mnie was silent and said nothing.
Eugene did not hear her speak for quite a while. He tapped the table with his slender finger and looked up at her impassively. “Mnie, you have no authority here. You’re just a secretary.”
Mnie was shaken. Biting her lip, she said slowly, “I know how to handle Mr. Morrison’s issue. Just let me have one more chance at this.”
<b>If </b>the project with Blue Inc was a sess, Mnie would <b>not </b>only <b>get </b>a bonus, but she could even build some connections. She did not want to give up on this.
However<b>, </b>Eugene snorted coldly. <b>He </b>looked up at her and reminded Mnie nonchntly, ” Are you sure you still have the energy to work on the Blue Inc project?”
Blood drained from Mnie’s face. She knew Eugene was talking about Dn.
“Mnie, your mother looked like she <b>was </b>in urgent need of help yesterday. Why don’t you focus on handling your family issues?<b>” </b>Vi stood <b>at </b>the <b>side </b>in a docile manner.
She added sincerely<b>, </b>“Besides, the entirepany seems to <b>be </b>focused on this. Don’t overthink this, Mnie. Everyone <b>is </b>just concerned about <b>you</b><b>.</b><b>” </b>
She sounded sincere, as if she really cared for Mnie.
That video of Mnie was recorded by an employee who had brought her child <b>to </b>the hospital to <b>see </b>a doctor.
However<b>, </b>the <b>real </b>reason for the <b>excited </b>discussions <b>was </b>that someone had asked Vi who that woman was<b>. </b>
The screenshot was still disyed inside the group chat.
In retrospect, Vi could im that she had no idea why everyone had asked her the question, or she could im that she thought everyone knew.
There were too many excuses for her to give.
As for Mnie, she was not even bothered to me Vi.
It was because this was true.
Dn was her mother.
Even if she was a blood–sucking parasite, she was still Dn’s mother.
It was the mother who shared a DNA with her.
Mnie looked upset, and Eugene’s cold voice rang in her ear. “LeapCo isn’t a charity. We won’t take any risks because of you.”
He looked grimly at Mnie for a while before saying, “I can’t be solving your problems for you every time.”
Mnie shut her eyes for quite a while before saying gently, “Alright, I understand.”
Eugene was determined not to let her handle Blue Inc, and there was nothing she could do
about it.
She headed downstairs to put together all the files to bring upstairs. Mnie did not <b>expect </b>Vi to follow behind her.
Vi took the files from Mnie and said crisply, “Give them to me, Mnie. I’ll follow up with Blue Inc. I can ask you anything about it since we’re working in the same office.”
