Relentless Pursuit After Divorce -
Chapter 965. This is just embarrassing.
Chapter 965: 965. This is just embarrassing.
It was a privilege not just anyone could enjoy, only those accompanying Adam Jones.
Once, Sophie Baker had daydreamed countless times of riding in the Jones Corporation’s CEO-exclusive elevator, proving she was special to Adam Jones compared to others.
But she had never had the chance, even when she came with Lily Jones, they took the regular employees’ elevator.
This time, as she followed Adam Jones, she kept a composed face, but inside, she was brimming with delight.
She was convinced that it was Adam Jones who had taken the initiative to bring her, and she would definitely share the CEO-exclusive elevator with him, heading straight to his office.
That way, even if nothing happened between her and Adam Jones, the employees of Jones Corporation would conjure up their own dramatic stories.
She believed that this time, she had a golden opportunity to turn her fortunes around.
But just as she was indulging in these pleasant thoughts, as they approached the CEO’s elevator, Adam Jones pointed to an elevator next to it and said,
"Take this elevator, once you’re at the top floor, a secretary will take you to my office."
The beautiful dream Sophie Baker was living in her mind was abruptly drenched in a bucket of cold water, and her expression froze in an instant.
Even though she tried her best to hide it, the stark contrast between reality and her imagination made it impossible for her to control her facial expression.
She looked at Adam Jones with eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief.
After saying those words to her, Adam Jones walked straight to the CEO-exclusive elevator, without even glancing at her.
The expressions of the few Jones Corporation employees standing near the elevator were also somewhat awkward at this moment.
Not just Sophie Baker, even they had assumed that since the CEO had personally brought Miss Baker over, she would certainly be taking the same elevator as him.
Even when Aide Green came to the company with the CEO, he would go directly up with the CEO—unlike this time, where the CEO actually took the initiative to tell Miss Baker to take the regular employees’ elevator next to them.
This was, quite frankly, awkward.
Just earlier, they had thought that Charlotte and the others would share power equally, but it turned out they were thinking too much.
Seeing the embarrassingly stiff expression on Sophie Baker’s face, the employees nearby suppressed their laughter and headed to another elevator, not daring to cram into the same one as Sophie Baker.
Even though she still enjoyed the privilege of riding an elevator alone, Sophie Baker’s heart at that moment had plunged to the bottom of the valley.
Sullen as she entered the elevator, it took her several deep breaths to suppress the anger rising in her.
She continually consoled herself, thinking that Adam just hadn’t thought things through and didn’t intend to embarrass her on purpose.
After all, what could signify his regard for her more than personally going to the women’s jail to release her?
When the elevator reached the top floor, she faced the onlookers’ gazes with full confidence and familiarity as she walked towards the CEO’s Office of Jones Corporation.
Robert Green stepped out of his own office just in time to see Sophie Baker, straight-backed like a proud peacock, walking unwaveringly towards the CEO’s Office.
Even if he didn’t look it up himself, the matter was on the Hot Search, and the secretaries in the secretary’s office had asked him countless times; it was hard not to know.
Watching Sophie Baker, the peacock, Robert Green was at a loss, having no clue what the CEO was up to.
Why on earth did he personally go to the women’s jail to bring Sophie Baker back?
And what’s more, even he, the personal assistant, learned about it through the words of a secretary.
Robert Green thought back to the man who visited Jones a few days ago, remembering he was a member of an investigation team in the United States looking into Mr. Jones’s death.
