Chapter 122 If Only This Lasts Forever

Just as Eileen was about to leave the restroom, someone appeared.

Ms. Ellen!

Richard?

Eileen could tell from his approach that he had something to say to her.

“May I have a quick word with you?”

The voice-activated lights illuminated the emergency exit, while the floor below remained.

dark.

Eileen hesitated before asking, “What is it, Richard?”

“Ms. Eileen, please take a look at this.”

Richard handed her a piece of paper. Eileen unfolded it and realized it was a psychological medical report indicating severe depression.

The report had been completed just over a week ago.

Eileen scrutinized the name column several times to confirm that it was Jasper’s.

Her heart skipped a beat. “W-what’s this?”

He seems perfectly normal in private and at school, as if nothing is wrong.

“As you’ve observed, Ms. Eileen, Mr. Smith hasn’t fully recovered from his illness. No matter how much we urge him to take his medication, he consistently declines, citing his busy work schedule. Mr. Smith also has a bad temper. Just a few days ago, he struck a shareholder who opposed his project proposal during the shareholders meeting. This type of incident has happened repeatedly. If this pattern continues, other shareholders may propose removing Mr. Smith from his position.”

Eileen asked, “So, Richard, what would you like me to do?”

He pleaded, “For the sake of the many times Mr. Smith has helped you, please persuade him to receive treatment. Right now, you’re the only one who can convince him.”

Eileen furrowed her brows and hesitated. “Richard, you’ve been by his side for so many years, and you haven’t been able to persuade him. I’ve only met him a few times…”
