CHAPTER 55: CHAPTER 55: THE PRESIDENT’S REMINDER

"That’s so nice." Faye Turner was happy for him. "It’s also your mother’s good fortune."

Mr. Mark requested of her, "If he returns, please send my regards to his elderly mother, and you can inform me too. I’ll make a special trip back to Argent to see her."

"Before Master left, he said he would travel for a very long time, maybe ten years, maybe twenty..." Faye mentioned, feeling a bit of longing. "So, in a short time, it would be very difficult to meet him."

Mr. Mark couldn’t help but feel a bit sad. Perhaps this farewell would be forever.

Old Mr. Downey is already over sixty now...

In the presidential suite, the two were recounting old times.

In the Lamborghini heading back to the company, Mr. Kerr was driving.

Ivy Jennings was sitting in the back seat with Adrian Lancaster, while Dustin Shepherd was in another car. The atmosphere in the car turned a bit oppressive in silence.

Ivy knew the contract had been successfully signed, but she was not happy. Instead, she felt intensely jealous.

No matter how strong her work ability was, what was the use?

A billion-dollar deal could be settled with just a word from Faye Turner.

Adrian Lancaster was wearing a fitted black custom-made shirt, looking impeccably refined. He was frowning as he gazed out the window.

Honestly, today he saw Faye in a new light. Everything that just happened was completely unexpected for everyone.

But at the same time, Adrian also noticed Ivy’s mood. She was distracted and not that happy.

Then he recalled last night’s recording, and his thin lips parted, "Ivy."

The woman in a little suit snapped back to reality, turning her eyes to look at the man’s handsome profile, "President."

When their eyes met, she was slightly dazed, wanting to get closer, yet it felt like there was a vast distance between them.

"If you’re not adapting to the Prestige Group Headquarters, you can continue staying at the branch office," Adrian’s tone was light, with no intention of reproach.

Ivy’s body stiffened, but she detected another meaning, nervously asking, "President, is there something I didn’t do well enough?"

Adrian looked at her for a few seconds, "I reflect on myself three times a day." Then he withdrew his gaze, turning to look out the window again, not saying another word.

Ivy felt inexplicably guilty, did he know something?

Did Faye tell him anything?

Remembering in the hospital when he opened the car door and let Faye sit in the Lamborghini seat she longed for, Ivy should have faced reality.

Faye and the president had a deep relationship.

Sitting beside him, Ivy’s heart was like a jar of mixed emotions, deciding to first secure her job and remain by the president’s side, she decided not to target Faye for a while.

As long as Faye wasn’t Mrs. Lancaster, Ivy believed she had hope, and how could a trivial little employee like Faye possibly become Mrs. Lancaster?

In the afternoon, Faye Turner also returned to the company.

On the 11th floor, just as she stepped out of the elevator, she coincidentally ran into Dustin Shepherd, her steps paused, and their eyes met.

Dustin’s gaze was full of emotion, as there were no others around at that moment, and he’d been looking for a chance to be alone with her.

"..." For a moment, Faye didn’t know what to say, and the atmosphere became inexplicably a little awkward.

Looking into her eyes, Dustin asked, "Why did you get married so young?" His face carried a smile, but his heart was full of unwillingness.

Before the girl could answer, Dustin asked again, "Is your husband good to you?"

At this moment, the exclusive elevator for the president opened, and Adrian Lancaster was about to step out when he heard Dustin’s voice outside—

"Can he accept your original family?" Dustin asked worriedly, "If your husband is not good to you, if you are forced into marriage, you can tell me. Divorce him, and I’m willing to marry you."

Inside the elevator, Adrian’s previously calm expression immediately tightened. Who was encouraging a divorce here?

"No, no, no..." Faye smiled and quickly explained, "I think you misunderstood. I married early, not due to coercion, and it has nothing to do with my family. It’s because I found love!"
