Semua Bab Mr. CEO, I Came Back To Love You: Bab 71 - Bab 80

Maddison angrily grabbed the envelope that contained the documents, but before she could pull it over to her side, Yael revealed, "Do you remember Yasmine Jones? She was Darren Westler's secretary when you worked for The Aces Wine?" All of a sudden, Maddison's entire body stiffened. Yael smirked and said, "Guilty aren't we, Maddison?" Yael turned to Robert, one of his colleagues, and ordered, "Play the video." "I don't want to see it! Whatever it is, it's just a lie!" Maddison claimed. "What is this about?" Maddison's lawyer asked. "Just watch," Robert said as he opened his laptop and played the video. In the recording, a woman in her late fifties explained her relationship with Maddison Buck. "Maddison and I used to be partners in crime, back in The Aces Wine. She was obsessed with the boss, Mister Darren Westler," Yasmine said, her voice shaking as she described. "What happened that night at Mister Westler's party was all Maddison's plan. Maddison created this elaborate sch

"Misses Walker, we would like to get your full statement, including how you met Mister Walker and then how it all connected to Maddison Buck," the detective requested, and Charlene nodded. She looked past the officer and saw Charlotte get up. "I'll leave you to it, Mother. Liam and I will wait for you outside," Charlotte said, exiting the room. Charlene understood that her daughter did not want to hear about how her relationship formed with Jeremy. It almost broke Charlene's heart, but she knew it was Charlotte's way of not dwelling on the past. When she was alone with the detective, Charlene began, "Okay, so. Jeremy. I met him because of work. I used to be an account manager for an office supply company. Jeremy, at that time, attempted to penetrate Braeton. He was new and needed a whole package of office supplies and equipment. I landed his account - rather, I must have impressed him that he accepted my offer." "Our relationship was purely professional. I met Jeremy only when w

"I have a favor to ask," Charlene asked. She fiddled with her fingers before requesting, "I don't have a lot of money, so I can only request this of you." "What is it, Mother?" Charlotte asked. Early in the morning, Charlotte was rushing to the living room because she was going to take a flight to Swaxon and go straight to the office with Chadwick. She found her mother waiting for her. Charlene's eyes were puffed, and it looked like she had been crying overnight. "I was wondering if you could help renovate our old home. No one has lived there for years, and It could use a lot of help. I'd like to live there so I can be closer to your father - visit him now and then. I probably will get a part-time job," Charlene said. "Do you want father's remains to be shipped to Swaxon?" Charlotte asked. "I've always wanted to do that." "No, maybe not now," she said. "Besides, you are planning to occasionally stay here in Braeton." Charlotte only nodded. A tear fell down Charlene's face a

"Coffee, Miss Strauss?" A man in his early fifties said. Charlotte learned that this was Drew Richard, Aiden's father. "No, thank you," Charlotte said. "Water will be fine." She watched as Drew left for the kitchen to get her and Chadwick a glass of water. Then Aiden asked, "So, Miss Strauss, how did you know I was the one who created DuraPay?" Could she say that she knew the future? Of course, she couldn't. Thus, Charlotte created an impromptu answer, "I know somebody, who knows somebody, who overheard somebody at the Glaco Corporation and hinted that an intern was the one who created the software. Only that no one would dare question the supervisor who introduced it as his - yeah, that's right." Charlotte nodded as if trying to convince herself. She described, "It was a long list of hearsay from another hearsay, that I couldn't quite say who it was." From the corner of her eye, Charlotte saw Chadwick frown. He probably knew she was lying. He was her constant companion, after

"A healthy work environment starts with a healthy mind and body. So, let's exercise," Charlotte said before one HR associate turned on the music, and everyone began to dance. After taking over HR, one of Charlotte's first initiatives was to run a health drive within the company. She had announced a Zumba class every five in the afternoon. Aside from health reasons, her other goal was to create a good relationship with other departments. Their office building had a spacious lobby. Thus, Charlotte converted part of the lobby for their dance area. As they danced, Charlotte turned to the groups of employees. Seeing them form their groups, she encouraged them, "Mix it up, guys! Why is IT with IT and admin with admin? Get to know each other's fine asses. Come on!" "Miss Strauss. I did not know you have a funny side!" One remarked. Charlotte chuckled. She suggested, "Beyond the office, I am also cool. Like you guys, I am also human." "She is the coolest boss ever!" Ming announced.
