Chapter 1083

Jordan narrowed his eyes. "Really?"

I nodded. "I have absolutely no knowledge o f what Lally said to Shannon last night."

Jordan's countenance sank, and his gaze gradually grew unkind when he looked at m e.

I silently cursed myself for being an idiot for mentioning the wrong thing.

It seemed like I should express concern for his body instead, so I asked carefully, "A-Are you doing

okay now, Mr. Fredericks?"

Jordan frowned slightly. "What do you mean if I'm doing okay?" 'Your body," I blurted out, just short

of asking him if he had gone to the doctor and if it was a serious case.

He looked at me with indifferent eyes and asked coldly, "Why would my body not be okay?"

I had no way to continue asking if he decided to play dumb.

I awkwardly smiled. "You have a healthy body. You've always been healthy."

I planned to retreat after Jordan signed the papers I brought.

Jordan put down his pen and looked up at me, saying, "The guys from Grant

Corporation will come over for a meeting later. You’re the person in charge of this project and have

to attend this meeting. Don't be late."

I nodded. "Okay, Mr. Fredericks. I understand."

"You can leave now."

I noticed that Jordan’s left hand was wrapped in gauze earlier, but seeing that h e refused to reveal

more about last night, I did not ask either.

If he did not stop me, then I would not have asked. However, he happened to stop me, s o I could

not help myself anymore.

I cleared my throat and pointed at his left hand, asking tentatively, "Did you hurt your hand, Mr.

Fredericks?”

Jordan glanced indifferently at his left hand and said nonchalantly, "I accidentally injured it last

night.”

Hence, it was not what Shannon and I thought. He did not get injured on the bed.

I felt a little speechless and got out of Jordan's office in a hurry. I gave Shannon a call.

As soon as the call connected, I quickly asked, "What did you do last night? Why is Jordan's hand

injured?”

"I don’t know what I did either. I don’t remember anything." Shannon was equally dumbfounded. "I

asked him but he wouldn't say. I can't remember a thing either. I'm super annoyed."

Shannon yawned. "I didn't sleep well last night and am dead tired. I'll talk to you later. I'm taking a

nap. We'll talk after I wake up."

She hung up after saying that.

I looked at the phone and let out a long sigh. "Are these two even trustable at all?”

I did not worry much about their relationship problems because my own relationship was a mess, so

it made me less concerned about other people's relationships.

When I returned to the office, Lally sent me a file for the meeting later and reminded m e. "This will

be our first meeting with Grant Corporation. It's especially important. Keep your chin up and don't

make a blunder."

I nodded. "Don’t worry about it."

Since I had taken over this project, I must keep my chin up and do a good job.
