The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1038

Jordan did not say anything and merely stared at me with a pair of dark eyes. I felt a tingling in my scalp.

Why did he keep staring at me?

To ease the awkwardness, I cleared my throat. "Have you had breakfast, Mr. Fredericks?"

I nearly forgot that my main job now was to be in charge of this guy's three main meals.

I did not prepare breakfast for him this morning, so he most probably had not eaten yet.

Jordan did not reply to my question and seemed too lazy to entertain me as he lowered his head. He began to handle the documents in front of him.

After mulling it over, I finally went downstairs to buy breakfast.

When I came back, Jordan was not in the office and neither was Lally.

I remembered later that there was a morning meeting today. I rushed to the conference room.

The meeting had already started. After going in, the person who was making the report stopped talking and everyone turned to look at me.

I stood on the spot, feeling tremendously

embarrassed. After calming down, I quickly said, "I'm sorry for the interruption and for being late."

Jordan looked deeply at me before signaling the person on stage to continue.

After a long morning, the meeting finally ended. Before I could leave the conference room, Jordan called out to me.

I stopped in my tracks and looked back at him, smiling a little unnaturally. "Mr. Fredericks."

"You didn't know we had a meeting today?" he asked, sounding a little stern.

I nodded, then shook my head. I wanted to cry but had no tears. "I'm really sorry, Mr. Fredericks. I promise this won’t happen again."

He pursed his lips, his tone sounding a little heavier." You've worked in Zimmer Corporations and Grant Corporation before. That shows that you're capable, which was why I allowed you to join the company without going through the HR department. However, that doesn't give you the right to ignore the company's rules and regulations. I hope you can take your job seriously."

Cally nodded. "I was surprised when I learned about it too, but that's really adorable, don't you think?"

I laughed. "Indeed."

Very few men had a sweet tooth. Take Theo, for example. He was basically insensitive to all things sweet. Hence, when coming across a man like Jordan who liked to eat sweets, it did seem a little adorable.

Cally continued, "Mr. Fredericks has gastric problems and they'll often act up if he skips his meal.

Remember to prepare some gastric medicine with you."

She went back to work after saying that.

I stood rooted on the spot and reflected on myself. I was indeed not treating work seriously enough right now.

When I was done reflecting, I returned to my office. After picking up the documents I had gone through, I went to look for Jordan.
