Chapter 350

Just as we walked into the office, we saw Toby. Seeing Dennis coming back, he was happy, “Mr. Dennis, the Mrs. Knight is very difficult to deal with.

Now that they take the initiative to come, they might be interested in cooperating with us. Do we need to talk with them?”

Toby was just an assistant. What he could do was to give advice.

I knew Dennis was just in a meeting. Hearing Toby’s words, I said, “I'll wait for you in the lounge."

He took a glance at the cloudy sky outside. The dark clouds had dispersed, and it was only raining lightly.

Then he looked at me and scraped the tip of my nose, "Okay, I'll be ready in a minute!"

There are two levels of office space dedicated to him, and the conference room is on another level, so I went into the break area.

Toby took some fruit and snacks five minutes later. Looking at me, he said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Dennis doesn’t eat those so we don’t have too much. You can pick something you like to eat while waiting for him.”

I thought Toby had changed a lot over the years, in a positive way.

I knew that Dennis doesn’t like to eat apples. Basically he would not even have one bite if he was not forced.

Therefore, it was normal for the office to have no fruit and snacks.

He came back in about twenty minutes. Seeing that I had cut all the fruit on the table into pieces but hadn’t eat them, he asked, “You don’t like that?”

Shaking my head, I took a toothpick and inserted a piece of fruit to his mouth and smiled, “I’m waiting for you.”

He wrapped his arms around me and looked a little apologetic, “The meeting might last long. Will you fell boring staying here alone?”

I knew that he was busy. Besides, I just wanted to walk around, so I won’t delay his work. “No, I will pick Clariana up later.” I said.

Dennis nodded and kissed me on the forehead. Feeling a little tired, he hugged me and closed his eyes to recuperate.

An hour has passed. Dennis seemed to had fallen asleep. Toby knocked and came in. Seeing Dennis closing his eyes, he turned to me and said in a low voice, “Is he asleep?”

I nodded and asked, “Will there be a meeting?”

Toby said with urgency, “Yes, there will be a meeting in ten minutes’ time with Mr. Bennett from Country M.”

Mr. Bennett?

“Mario Bennett?” I asked.

Toby nodded.

Wasn’t Mario going to H Town?

“Go to the lounge and have a rest if you are tired later.” said Dennis. He had waken up, and was arranging his grooming.

Not minding my presence, Toby said directly, “The company in Country M has sent me the information, and Mr. Mario is waiting for you to do the handover.”

Dennis stood up and said, “Let Marcus handle it.”

“I see.” said Toby.

Seeing him leaving, I stood up and said, “Wait!”

I stood in front him. “You don’t want me to leave?” he smiled.

I glared at him and smiled lightly, "Your hair and tie are crooked."

I raised my hand to help him fix his hair, which was a bit messy, and straightened his tie.

He smiled lightly, “Go to Toby if you want anything. Mario is going to H Town. The handover is a little complicated so it might take a long time.

I nodded and said goodbye to him.

He didn’t say more but left because of the urgent meeting. I started to read in the office, feeling a little bored.

Then I heard the sound of argument outside, so I went out to see what happened.

It was Bernice, who was different from what I remembered. Her hair was messy and her complexion was waxy and haggard. Although her clothes were designer clothes, it seemed a little cheap.

Two secretary ladies blocked her out of the door, "Miss Bernice, I’m sorry, but you are not allowed to go inside if you don't have an appointment with Mr. Dennis."

Bernice was like a wild woman. She didn’t give up even though she was blocked by the two secretaries. “Tell Dennis! I want to meet him!” she said in a hoarse voice.

However, it didn’t work. After all, the secretaries had their own work.

But I shouldn’t get involved. Toby had just left, so I didn’t know what to do.

I turned around and was intended to go back to the office.

“Wait, Clara!” said Bernice.

I turned around and saw her looking at me angrily, “Are you happy now?”

Feeling a little displeased, I frowned.

I looked at her messy clothes. It would be a little tired if I talked with her in a long distance. Now that she saw me, I chose to face her.

I walked to her and looked at her indifferently, “Miss Bernice, maybe you should be elegant even if you are down and out.”

Her conditions were not that bad. After all, she was young, beautiful and well-educated. Besides, she had good figure. She still had other choices except being a star.

She sneered, “Are you talking to me as a winner?”

I shrugged, "You can interpret it any way you want."

She disdained, “Dennis regarded me as a stand-in. You think you are better than me? He cannot forget the one that he really loves!”

I didn’t want to talk more about this, because it seemed useless.

She was doing that because she was not reconciled to the situation.

Looking at her, I said, “Although I don’t know how you got him to notice you, the matter of stand-in doesn’t mean much. Maybe I can help you if you talk to me in a polite way, Bernice. But if you can’t control yourself, I think we can talk about all the grudges between us. You have caused a lot of trouble with the rumor about me. It seems only natural to me that as the victim, I should defend my reputation."

She was turning angry, "Who can you blame for your proliferate behavior? Everything I said is true."

Please Love Me, Mr. George Chapter 349 The One to Protect 5 I said, not really angry, “I married Dennis seven years ago, formally. I don’t know who had provided you with the news, but I am able to guess. I don’t care about it, because I think I con’t need to, but not because I am a cowardice. Well, I really don’t want to waste my time on something like this.”
