Chapter 56 Jason brought quite a few people along with him, and they couldnât all fit in one van, so Eleanor had to call for another business van.
Senior executives took the other cars, and Jason and his bodyguards rode in Eleanorâs van.
Eleanor didnât talk to Jason during the drive, focusing on driving and taking him to a fiveâstar restaurant.
In the luxurious private dining room, Sophie and some of the vice presidents of VitaLife Global had already arrived. Only Bernard had not yet arrived.
After arranging for Jason and his party to be seated, Sophie went out and asked Eleanor, âHave you sent the address to Mr. Laurence?â
Eleanor nodded, âI did.â
Though she wasnât sure if Bernard had seen the WhatsApp message, she had sent the address to him, and whether he came or not had nothing to do with her.
âMs. Ratliff, Iâll be leaving first.â
Now that she had done her job of picking them up, there was no need for her to stay.
Just as she turned to leave, Sophie stopped her.
âEleanor, donât be in such a hurry to leave. Go book a hotel for Mr. Clowers. After itâs all over, weâll have to ask you to drive them back to the hotel.â
Eleanor was about to refuse, but Sophie gave her a pleading look. I know you want to quit, but before you do, this is still part of your job, isnât it? If you take care of Mr. Clowers well today, Iâll approve your resignation request when we get back, okay?â
Sophieâs words were somewhat threatening, but thinking that she could resign after this, Eleanor didnât refuse.
After getting their identification information from Jasonâs assistant, she sat outside the private dining room, took out her phone, and booked a hotel.
This dinner was organized by VitaLife Global to improve the relationship with the Clowers Group.
Naturally, those attending were all CEOs, executives, and the like. As a mere assistant, she didnât need to join in and could wait outside.
After booking the hotel, she put down her phone, intending to go to the restroom.
She got up a bit too quickly, felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground Luckily, a strong hand behind her quickly supported her waist and held her up.
âMs. Shultz, whatâs wrong?â
Eleanor leaned against him, panting for a while before looking up at the person who had helped her.
Due to the lack of blood supply to her brain, her vision was blurry. She could only make out a silhouette, knowing that it was Jason, and immediately pushed him away.
âItâs nothing, just a bit of low blood sugar,â she said, thanking him quietly.
Jason noticed her pale face and frowned slightly âAre you sick?â
âNoâ
Eleanor shook her head.
Seeing her deliberately keeping a distance from him, he didnât ask any further.
He said, âIâm going to the restroomâ and walked away.
Eleanor wanted to go to the restroom too, but she was too dizzy to walk at the moment.
She had no choice but to lean against the door frame and sit back down.
Fortunately, the dizziness came and went quickly, and she soon recovered.
When she tried to get up to go to the bathroom again, she accidentally saw Bernard standing at the elevator entrance.

Chapter 56 He was wearing a tailored darkâblue suit, looking tall and straight.
Soft yellow light sprinkled on him, casting a faint glow that made him look extremely noble.
The face obscured by dim light was deep and breathtakingly attractive.
It seemed like he had been standing there for quite a long time.
Seeing him made Eleanor nervous. As she was thinking about whether she should hide or not, Bernard suddenly walked towards her with his long legs.
With nowhere to hide, Eleanor could only tightly grip her cell phone, swiftly turn around, and face away from him.
The cold gaze from behind once again fell upon her, and she could feel the icy atmosphere gradually surrounding her.
Feeling a bit short of breath, she gripped her phone even harder.
âDo you expect me to open the door myself?â
The cold voice sounded above her head.
Eleanor hurriedly turned around with her head lowered, not realizing how close the man behind her was.
Her sudden motion made her petite and fragile body bump directly into the strong, firm chest of the man behind her.
