Chapter 1286 Flint‘s presence made the atmosphere much less stuffy than it had been before.
The meeting went exceptionally smoothly.
In just half an hour, the meeting was over. Odell adjourned the conference , took Flint into his arms, got up, and
went out.
Outside, Shermaine was talking to Cliff by the side.
Upon seeing him come out with Flint in his arms, she immediately showed an apologetic look. “Master Carter, I‘m
sorry. I didn‘t keep an eye on the young master.”
“It‘s fine,” Odell replied and walked straight past her while carrying Flint.
Shermaine frowned as she watched Odell walk away.
At that moment, Cliff smiled at her and said, “Didn‘t I tell you? Master Carter won‘t get angry. Go back to your
station.”
Shermaine snapped back to her senses and smiled. “Yes, I didn‘t expect Master Carter to be so indulgent with the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyoung master.”
She thought that he would be unhappy about the child interrupting his meeting.
Cliff laughed. “Flint is his son. Even if he causes trouble, Master Carter won‘t hold it against the boy. Don‘t think too
much about it and go back to work.”
Shermaine pursed her lips. “Okay.”
While Cliff did not say anything else and walked in the direction Odell left, Shermaine took a breath and walked
toward the elevator.
Not long after, an MPV stopped outside the gate.
Sylvia got down from the car and quickly walked inside. Jacob was right by the entrance of the building and
hurriedly welcomed her when he saw her. Sylvia asked him, “Where‘s Flint? Is he inside?” Jacob replied, “Assistant
Bogard said that the young master broke into the conference room. Master Carter brought him back to the office.”
Sylvia breathed a sigh of relief. “Good.” She had just left him unattended for a little while, but that little brat actually
urged Jacob to bring him here. Fortunately, he did not get lost.
Sylvia continued to walk inside.
The security guard recognized her and let her in directly.
However, when she passed by the front desk, the
receptionist called out to her, “Miss, who are you looking
for?”
Sylvia looked over and saw two young women wearing uniforms. One of the women looked familiar. Before she
could recall who she was, the familiar–looking woman smiled at her and said, “Oh, it‘s you, Mrs. Carter. Are you
here to see Master Carter?” “Yes.” Sylvia noticed that the woman was polite and smiled at her. “I seem to have
seen you somewhere before. Have we met?”
“My name is Shermaine Cole. We met two years ago.” Shermaine smiled back at her.
Sylvia instantly remembered her. It was the girl who had saved Madam Carter. Since Shermaine resembled Sylvia
slightly, Madam Carter had even mistaken her for the latter at that time.
Sylvia smiled at her and asked curiously, “When did you start working here?” Shermaine replied, “I joined two years
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmago. Assistant Bogard arranged for me to work here.” Sylvia nodded. Odell had most likely asked Cliff to arrange it
in order to thank her for saving Madam Carter. However, would it not have been better to just give her a sum of
money directly?
Nevertheless, Sylvia did not think much about it. She remembered Flint and headed to the elevator after saying
goodbye to Shermaine.
Shermaine maintained a polite smile . Even after Sylvia went into the elevator, she still held a kind and
approachable smile on her face.
Her colleague beside her immediately asked, “Shermaine, I didn‘t know that you knew Mrs. Carter. Do you have any
relationship with Master Carter‘s family?”
Shermaine replied, “We were acquainted in an accident two years ago. We‘re just ordinary friends at most. There‘s
no other relationship.”
“But Mrs. Carter and Master Carter are very courteous to you.”
Shermaine smiled and said nothing.
When the colleague saw that she refused to mention their past, she pouted and did not ask again.
Meanwhile , the elevator Sylvia took soon arrived at the top floor. Coincidentally, just as the door opened, she saw
the man holding Flint. The man in the suit stood tall and straight.
