All Chapters of Be Gentle With Me, Mr. CEO: Chapter 321 - Chapter 330

Calla thought Jill and Peggy would be satisfied after beating her up. She didn't expect them to file a complaint with the tourism bureau. Floyd's voice was full of disappointment. Calla understood the consequences of being ordered by the tourism bureau to suspend operations for rectification. The duration of a business closure can vary, but even a two-week shutdown can be a significant blow to a travel agency. This meant all tour guides and employees would be out of work during this period.Calla felt a pang of guilt, regretting not controlling her emotions that day. She had caused such a big problem for her boss and the travel agency. That said, it wasn't like she could have prevented what happened last night. She was backed into a corner. No matter what she did, Jill and Peggy were going to make her life miserable.The next moment, Calla asked Floyd, "Mr. Burrows, are the tourism bureau representatives still there? I'll explain the situation to them myself.""Alright." Floyd

Soon, Pierre parked his car in front of Calla's apartment building. Calla glanced out the window, then turned to Pierre. I don't know how to express my gratitude to you this time," she said with sincerity. "I've told you, you don't need to be so polite with me," Pierre said, looking straight at her.Calla nodded, then unbuckled her seat belt. "I'm leaving now. Bye."As Calla reached out to open the car door, Pierre quickly called out, "Calla!""Yes?" Calla turned back to him, puzzled.Pierre looked down and smiled. "Won't you invite me up for a drink?"Hearing this, Calla stared at him, quickly weighing her options. Pierre was making a pass at her, but she was only a divorcee. Besides, she had no interest in getting involved with any man again.As such, Calla smiled and politely declined. "Honestly, my place is quite a mess. It's really inconvenient for me to invite a man upstairs.""I see." Pierre nodded, seeming to understand.Right when Calla was ready to leave the car,

"Why? Is it because I'm Mercer's cousin? That's not fair to me, and you know that." Pierre's countenance grew stern.Calla felt the onslaught of a headache coming. She had been so unlucky in love these past few years. It felt like every guy she met was nothing but trouble."I don't understand why you don't get it. Look, I'm not looking for anything right now. I don't have any feelings for you. Mr. Garland, if there's nothing urgent, I'm feeling quite worn out and would like some rest. Please see yourself out!" Calla suddenly regretted letting Pierre come in. Still, it was good to clear things up once and for all so that he'd give up.Calla's dismissal left Pierre rooted to the spot. It was a struggle to make himself move, but being the gentleman he was, he forced himself toward the door.Calla crossed her arms over her chest, not looking at him. She was hoping he would leave as soon as possible. She didn't want to be involved with any man anymore.When Pierre reached the door, h

As time went on, even her closest colleagues began to shun Calla. Rumors circulated that she had influential connections. To avoid any potential complications, everyone started giving her the cold shoulder. Calla eventually felt isolated and distressed.After struggling for a few days, Calla decided to resign.When Calla placed her resignation letter on Floyd's desk, he was alarmed. Floyd quickly stood up, his concern evident. "Calla, is the treatment here not up to your standards? Your salary is already quite high. Look at Piper. She works so hard leading tours every day yet still doesn't earn as much as you do."Calla quickly raised her head to explain, "Mr. Burrows, it has nothing to do with how the travel agency treated me. It's something personal on my end.""Then, why are you leaving? We can't do without you here. Remember when your friend helped us out with the tourism bureau? "Things have been great ever since. All the other agencies are green with envy. If you leave,

Calla left Miriam Accounting Firm and headed straight for the hospital. At the hospital, Calla realized how severe this flu outbreak was. The hospital was completely overwhelmed with patients. Calla frowned as she looked at the long line of people ahead of her. She figured it would take a couple of hours to get her prescription filled.Feeling exhausted and weak, she decided to go to a small clinic instead. She soon picked up some medicine and then went home to rest. After taking the medication, Calla drifted off into a hazy sleep.In the evening, she felt chills all over her body. At this point, she somehow managed to get up and pour herself a cup of hot water.Having eaten a few crackers and taken more medicine, Calla went back to sleep. This time, she slept until dawn and found herself too weak to even get up.…At 10:00 am the next morning, Avery knocked on Miriam's office door. "Come in," Miriam said, looking down at an accounting ledger on her desk.Avery entered ju
