CHAPTER 22: CHAPTER 22: JUST STARTED AND ALREADY GOING ON A BUSINESS TRIP WITH THE CEO

Absolutely unbelievable!

Two completely unrelated people!

"It’s okay." Her tone was indifferent, not intending to flatter the team leader.

Asher remained smiling, "I heard you can speak four languages?"

Laura Quincy nodded, "Yes."

Asher immediately said, "Great! You’ll be the CEO’s translator for the trip to Aquaria next week."

Laura Quincy widened her eyes in disbelief, "I... I’ve just arrived, I’m afraid I can’t handle such an important task!"

Asher’s charming eyes squinted slightly, "Oh? Are you doubting your professional skills?"

Laura Quincy hesitated for a second, "No."

Asher finally said satisfyingly, "Go ahead and get busy. I’ll have the secretary inform you of the specific travel time."

Laura Quincy nodded and then left.

She was puzzled that the Cold-Blooded Demon King actually agreed to Team Leader Thorne’s decision?

After Laura Quincy left, Asher put away his playful smile, sitting on the other side of the sofa, "Jason, is she that woman?"

Jason Hawthorne lit a cigarette, "Mm."

Asher swirled his teacup gently, "She doesn’t look like the kind of woman with deep schemes!"

Jason looked up and glanced at him, "Are you good at judging people?"

Asher was rather hurt, "But she looks so transparent like one of those little girls!"

Jason snorted coldly, "That suggests even more that she’s calculating and a good actress! Otherwise, why would she hit Twinkle, and Twinkle would still actively want to go back with her?"

Asher pondered for a moment, "Your reasoning is sound, but you overlooked one thing."

Jason exhaled a puff of smoke, "What?"

Asher pointed out each word, hitting the mark slowly, "She is, after all, Twinkle’s biological mother; this kind of mother-child blood relationship is unbreakable, maybe that’s why Twinkle likes her so much."

His words caused Jason to be momentarily stunned; he had never thought about it this way. Initially, finding her to give birth to Twinkle was an accident, and afterward, he had John hypnotize her to make her forget everything that happened at the seaside villa, also hoping they wouldn’t have any more interaction.

"Mother-child blood relationship?"

"Yeah! Blood relationships are a magical thing; if you don’t believe it, you can ask John."

Jason frowned, pondering deeply. If what Asher said was true, have I really misunderstood Laura Quincy?

Asher continued, "Don’t fret! White is back from The Sunken Isles, how about calling Donnie and going to ’The West Court’ tonight?"

Jason nodded, "Mm."

Laura Quincy had just returned to her cubicle, and Crystal Langley seized the opportunity to come over while delivering stationery, "Met Young Master Thorne?"

Laura Quincy nodded, "Your description was spot on, he’s clearly a playboy!"

Crystal blinked, "What did Young Master Thorne say to you?"

Laura Quincy shrugged, "What else could it be? Just another interview! But his office is quite impressive! Does the team always go to the fifty-ninth floor whenever there’s something to settle?"

She casually tossed the topic back to Crystal, who was quite happy to answer, "Of course not! The fifty-ninth floor isn’t somewhere anyone can go! It’s not just Young Master Thorne’s office, but also the CEO’s domain."

As she said this, her gaze never left Laura Quincy, trying to detect something from her eyes.

Laura Quincy wasn’t new to the workplace; how could she not understand Crystal Langley’s probing intent?

She deliberately acted shocked, "Young Master Thorne is actually on the same floor as the CEO? They must have a close relationship?"
