For the past few days, Connor had been terrified.

His boss had returned from Meyer Corp, where he had discussed medical cooperation, looking completely transformed.

Although his boss was demanding in the past, he did not have a strict approach.

He was as cold as ice these few days, and not a trace of the famously easygoing Kayden could be found.

The day before yesterday, Shawn made a small mistake when he received the partner, and the boss directly ordered the director to fire him.

He was Lucy's cousin, and the boss had told her that she needed to get him into the company.

Because Shawn had been fired, Connor was wary about making any blunders.

Every day, he trembled.

If Connor had known that his boss's trip to the Meyer Corp would not only fail to cajole Anika but would also end up like this, he would not have allowed his boss to talk too much there.

Right now, he was remorseful, really remorseful.

Connor squeezed his sweat for Director Adam, who had just handed in the proposal, as he saw his boss's grave expression.

His phone vibrated twice in his pocket.

Connor slipped his phone out of his pocket and checked the familiar caller ID.

Kayden's eyes were filled with displeasure, so he quickly cut the phone off.

Kayden cast a sidelong glance before averting his gaze.

His expression was as frigid as it had been previously.

He dialed the inside number after turning off the Lake Project Plan that he had submitted to the director.

"Hello, President Jenkins.' Director Adam said nervously.

"Who is the research section..."

Kayden overheard a faint noise and an argument from him before he could continue his sentence.

"What happened to you?"

he frowned, putting away the reproach on his lips.

Director Adam appeared to pause for a moment before speaking slowly and clearly, "Manager Cooper is dubious about his dismissal.He's looking forward to meeting you."
