Vivian came to her office in the morning for the contract with the Domen Group. At noon, however, she found that Grace was still working in the CEO\u2019s office.<\/p>\n<p>She thought that it was because of the cooperation with the Domen Group that Grace worked so hard. But in the afternoon, she learned from the Secretary Department that Grace asked them to bring her all the relevant documents.<\/p>\n<p>Vivian realized that something was wrong. The door of the president\u2019s office wasn\u2019t closed. Just as she reached out to knock it, it opened automatically. Vivian found that Grace was completely dedicated to her work.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrace,\u201d Vivian strode in and said sullenly, \u201cIt\u2019s not a good idea to keep working. I know there are still many problems to solve. But we have signed the contract with the Domen Group. Take it easy. OK?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not about Domen.\u201d Grace was still busy with her work and did not even raise her head. She signed a document and responded indifferently.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat?\u201d Vivian frowned. \u201cThen why are you doing this?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOK. Stop, Vivian. Go.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Grace still didn\u2019t raise her head and said.<\/p>\n<p>Vivian was angry that Grace kept working. She smacked her hand down on to the table and said, \u201cI heard that you didn\u2019t have lunch.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not hungry. Get out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Grace said coldly.<\/p>\n<p>Vivian was slightly stunned. She had never treated her like this since she started to work for her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGet out.\u201d Grace raised her head from the pile of documents and looked at Vivian.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat happened?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Vivian pondered for a moment and felt that something was wrong. She had never treated her like this. \u201cI can go out now. Grace, I understand why you focus on your work, but you should eat something.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI told you I\u2019m not hungry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Vivian frowned, \u201cIf you skip meals, I can\u2019t finish my task.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Vivian was provoked by Grace.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTask?\u201d Grace raised her eyebrows. \u201cWhat task?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Vivian realized she had spilled the beans. As this was the case, there was no need to keep the secrets.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBefore President Shaw left for Italy, he asked me to supervise you and make sure you have your meals on time. Although he lost his memories, I must keep my promise.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Grace became more upset when Vivian mentioned Caden. \u201cWho\u2019s your boss? Vivian, mind your behavior.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then Grace realized she had gone too far.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrace?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGet out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is something wrong, right?\u201d Vivian knew Grace well. She wouldn\u2019t treat her like this for no reason.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTell me about it. Maybe I \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Grace suddenly slapped the table and stood up. She knew that Vivian cared about her, but she could not bear her constant chatter. \u201cGet out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She tried to push her out of the office.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCome on.\u201d Vivian said, \u201cThere must be a way. Did Caden do something bad? Tell me. Maybe I can help &#8230;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What Vivian said made Grace even more annoyed. Her words stabbed at her heart like sharp arrows. She shouted, \u201cYou can\u2019t!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She didn\u2019t want to hurt Vivian, but she also didn\u2019t want to hear anything about Caden.<\/p>\n<p>She just \u2026 wanted Vivian to shut up and leave her alone.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s about Caden, right?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She opened the door and found the room was dark. She breathed a sigh of relief \u2026 It seemed that Ingemar had taken him away.<\/p>\n<p>However, she felt somewhat upset.<\/p>\n<p>She tried to calm down.<\/p>\n<p>She turned on the light. The room was light.<\/p>\n<p>She looked into the living room and saw nobody on the sofa \u2026 He used to lie on the sofa.<\/p>\n<p>She put down her backpack and slowly went into the bedroom. As she turned on the light, she still found no one was here.<\/p>\n<p>She turned around and slowly walked out of the bedroom to the balcony.<\/p>\n<p>On the balcony, there were only telescopes.<\/p>\n<p>She touched the telescopes. It felt very cold.<\/p>\n<p>She found herself in a daze.<\/p>\n<p>When she passed by the living room again, she suddenly found the dishes on the bar. She looked at them for a long time. Then she stretched out to touch the plates. The food had already got cold.<\/p>\n<p>He had gone. Nobody would cook her a hot meal.<\/p>\n<p>He had gone!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGood. He has gone.\u201d She said.<\/p>\n<p>However, she picked up the chopsticks and started eating.<\/p>\n<p>She also turned all the lights on. Every room was bright.<\/p>\n<p>However, she frowned \u2026 Somehow, she felt something was wrong.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1514","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1514","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1514"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
