strong sense of annoyance.“What are you doing, Dumbo? Why are you only consoling him, not me? Am I not comparable to a rascal like Josiah?”One by one, Winnie pried open Xavier’s fingers from her chin. Chuckling wryly, she answered, “That’s because everything you said is correct. There’s no need for consolation if you don’t need one, right?”Satisfied by Winnie’s reply, Xavier proudly said, “Heh, so you do know how to please me, after all. Very good. As expected from my woman!”There he goes again, blurting out cringy CEO lines.Winnie calmed herself down. If Xavier was not ill, she would have given him a strong punch. Soon, the elevator reached the eighteenth floor. Winnie and Josiah could finally escape the suffocating atmosphere.This was not Josiah’s first time coming to Xavier’s office. Hence, he was familiar with the layout.After exiting the elevator, he directly headed left.On the other hand, Xavier and Winnie headed right.After everything that happened today, Josiah did not feel like talking to Xavier anymore.He dragged Louis, who was behind Xavier and Winnie, with him.Curious, Josiah asked, “Where is he going? Isn’t that the employee working area?

Everyone would know how intimate they are with each other. Oh well, I’m not getting involved in this one. Tell him I’ll be waiting in his office.”“All right. Do you want anything to drink?

You guys just be quick.”Louis nodded.A thought then came to his mind, and he uttered, “Dr. Houghton, please don’t take to heart what Mr. Fairchild had said to you before. From what I can see, Mr. Fairchild is just very sensitive when it comes to matters regarding Mrs. Fairchild. He’s no different from usual when dealing with work.”“Don’t worry. I don’t mind at all,” Josiah replied smilingly. “We’ve been best friends for decades. I’m not going to be pissed just because of a few words.”I can only say that Xavier is too obsessed with Dumbo
