Chapter 265 Take My Girlfriend to Have a Dinner
“I heard from Mr. Harrison that you haven’t been in good health recently. Are you all right now?” Flora
poured two cups. of tea and handed her one. Her tone and posture were very normal.
With a guilty conscience, Evelyn couldn’t raise her head and naturally couldn’t relax. “Yes…”
Evelyn was a person who didn’t lie. Seeing her reaction at this time, she already knew what was going
on, but she didn’t expose it. She just felt a little disappointed. When she spoke again, her tone was a
little cold. “Since you’ve just recovered, I won’t give you too many heavy tasks recently. You deal with
the things at hand first. When you’re in a better state, I’ll
arrange other tasks for you. Is that okay?”
Evelyn lowered her head and looked at the exquisite porcelain teacup in her hand without saying a

Flora reminded her, “Evelyn?”
“Ms. Atkins.” Evelyn lifted her head and sighed, “Although I feel sorry, I still want to be honest with you.
The reason I took the
extended leave is not just because of health issues but also due to some personal matters. I apologize
for allowing my personal affairs to affect my work progress.”
She apologized twice in a row, and her words were full of guilt.
It was not the first time that she had been like this. She was really a little overcautious and looked down
on this job.
Flora was stunned for a moment. She didn’t expect her to tell the truth. The displeasure in her heart
dissipated a little. After all, this was a good thing.
“Since you’ve made it clear, I hope such a situation won’t happen again. Although you’re an individual,
you’re an indispensable part of the team. You need someone else to share your work with when you’re
not around. Since you need someone to do it for you, it’s reasonable to tell them beforehand. I hope
that you can pay attention to it in the future. Everyone’s labor is worthy of respect.” Flora was famous
for being strict. Even though Evelyn and Huston were very close, she didn’t go easy on her.
Evelyn felt uncomfortable being criticized, but she still accepted it modestly. “I’m sorry. I promise I won’t
do it again.”
Flora looked at her self-blame and nodded. “Okay, I believe
you.”
After making it clear, the atmosphere in the office finally relaxed a little. Flora no longer made things
difficult for her and said half-jokingly, “But it’s the first time I’ve received a call from Mr. Harrison in
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmperson. I guess I’m benefiting from your connection.”
Evelyn quickly shook her head. “Don’t say that. I’m so ashamed…”
While they were talking, someone suddenly knocked on the office door. The door was closed, so they
couldn’t see who it was. Flora straightened her posture and said clearly, “Please come in.”
As soon as the door was pushed open, both of them were stunned, especially Evelyn. She was
surprised to see her lover walking in briskly and then going straight to her side.
Huston was wearing a blue shirt. The color was very light, somewhere between blue and grayish-white.
The tie around his neck was what she had given him, making him look very capable.
Evelyn blinked and couldn’t come to her senses. “Why are you here?”
Huston raised his eyebrows slightly, grabbed her arm, and turned to look at Flora Atkins next to him.
“Ms. Atkins, it’s 12:40 now. There are still 50 minutes left before work. I’ll take my
girlfriend to have a meal. Is it okay?”
