President's Naughty Sweetheart

Chapter 42: Brother asking for help

His furious way of speaking stunned Ella into silence.

Silence suddenly reigned in the car and Aiden calmed down a bit now. However, his anger had not completely subsided, so he was still grim and speechless.

After arriving at the underground parking lot of the company, they took the elevator to their own office without saying a word throughout.

Arriving at the department of design, Ella wanted to ask Sofia a few questions. It was not because she suspected that Sofia had drugged her food. After all, they had never had a quarrel nor a conflict when in the previous company, so she thought Sofia had no reason to scheme against her.

But last night she only chatted and drank with Daniel and Sofia in the ballroom, so she could not help but think of Daniel...

She thought he was more unlikely to do such a thing, especially when thinking of his righteous demeanour. Suspecting him would be a humiliation for him.

When seeing that Sophia's seat was still empty, she went back to hers.

After turning on the computer, she stared at the screen in a daze. Although she doubted that someone would really drug her food, her weird symptoms and Aiden's words made her believe! Glancing around the department, she felt that she had to be more careful there.

At this time, her phone emitted a sound of Facebook notification. Entering the password, she saw a message from Arthur, "Ella, when will you return my clothes?"

She smiled, remembering that he said she didn't have to return. She just forgot it recently, and he should rush her!

She typed quickly, "Please give me your address. I'll have it delivered to you. I've washed and ironed the clothes, and the tag is still new. Besides, don't call me by my first name. We don't know each other well."

It took her much time to preserve the tag.
