My Supermodel Wife-Chapter 970 - The Time Has Come!
Merry automatically ignored that she had been trapped.
With excitement in her eyes, she leaned closer to Anna. "So, I have to be with him?"
"Why not? He is not your real brother and sometimes, girls like older men because they are more nurturing. There's no need to be ashamed to admit your feelings, it's all natural."
Anna's reminder made Merry's heart instantly calm.
Turns out she really likes Chris!
She really wanted to be with Chris because he was more mature and handsome!
When this conflict of her heart was over, Merry jumped out of bed and ran to the bathroom to take a shower.
She wanted to go to bed early, so she could leave tomorrow as soon as possible, and to confess her feelings!
Anna was surprised by Merry's words that she would tell her heart to Chris tomorrow, and so she couldn't help but smile.
Little Merry has found someone she likes! But why does she suddenly want to fall in love too?
...
The next day, Merry woke up early before Anna, and she quickly finished breakfast before going to the company.
When she arrived at Gaia, the little girl texted Anna with her cell phone while walking.
Her head lowered at her screen as she got out of the elevator, then she only walked a step before finally bumping into someone.
She suddenly raised her eyes, and when she saw the other party, she was shocked. "Uncle!"
The person she bumped into was Alan.
It's still less than half past eight, why did this man come?!
Although Merry didn't know much about Hartanto's family affairs, she had also heard some insider stories.
Out of instinct, she was slightly wary of Alan.
At this moment, Alan was standing in front of the little girl, looking at her with downcast eyes. "Do you work here?"
Merry blinked, then pursed his lips and nodded.
"Are you used to it?" Alan asked with a somewhat seniority pride, but his eyes were full of playfulness.
To his surprise, he didn't expect Chris to still like this little girl.
In order to tie Merry to his side, he did not hesitate to let her into his company.
Even though Merry didn't know what Alan was thinking, she was still very smart.
She looked at Alan, blinked her eyes, and answered sharply. "Uncle, you don't have to worry too much about me. Dad told me to work because he didn't want me to be lazy at home and since I'm working at a friend's company, my dad really helped me adapt quickly."
The little girl was very clever, she used her father's name to block attacks.
After all, she wouldn't believe that Alan dared to face her father head-on!
Sure enough, when he heard these words, Alan's eyes flashed in surprise. "It wasn't Chris who asked you to come?"
"Of course not!" Merry shook her head calmly. "My father arranged for me to work here."
"Okay." Alan raised an eyebrow that seemed surprised, and he didn't say much. The man went past Merry and walked out of the elevator.
It seems Chris is not paying much attention to Merry, is it?
Rather, the girl was here because of Samuel's approach. Could it be that he was trying to match Chris and Merry?!
With a mood full of questions, Alan paced around Gaia.
But he didn't think about it for too long, and quickly forgot about the matter.
Even if Chris could join the Hiroshi family in the end, it wouldn't be a big problem.
After all, through his mother's help, the Vanders' seemed happy to hear of the marriage between him and Anette.
Alan left Gaia, went back to the car, and lit a cigarette. 𝑓𝘳ℯ𝒆w𝘦𝘣𝙣𝘰ѵ𝘦𝚕.c𝗼𝓶
He raised his hand to look at the clock, racked his brain for a while, and called Anette.
"Are you free? I'd like to invite you for a light lunch at noon!"
Nobody knew what Anette said on the phone, but Alan's smile slowly deepened. "Okay, then I'll pick you up at noon."
After hanging up, Alan put his phone in his pocket.
Just as the car engine was about to leave, the phone vibrated again.
He slowed down, glanced at the caller ID, frowned and asked. "What is it?"
The caller was his assistant.
"Mr. Alan, I sent you an email yesterday. If you're free... Please check it out."
Alan hadn't been to his company for a while.
After all, it was only the project he invested in, so only the senior partners were mentioned.
"What email?"
Alan took the opportunity to park the car on the side of the road, and after turning on the handsfree, he went to the company's email page.
Hearing the voice, the assistant hesitated and explained, "This is a provisional spending approval. Mr. Alan, we have a fixed budget for our annual expenses, but this time there was an unexpected expense, so the Treasury Department has revised it."
Alan frowned, and his company's highest review authority was indeed in his hands.
Especially for the review of related costs, he had to pass the final approval before the funds could be approved.
When he opened his email, he asked, "Why did this unexpected cost occur?"
The assistant was silent for a few seconds before speaking honestly. "One employee named Rachel passed out at the company a few days ago."
"Since you had changed her previous position to probationary status, the company did not pay her various welfare insurances. After she fainted this time, according to relevant laws and regulations, it is a work-related injury, so the treatment fee needs to be paid by the company. But in this year's annual budget, there is no money set aside to pay for medical expenses, so..."
At this moment, Alan slowed down from scrolling his phone's screen.
Rachel...
Looks like he hasn't heard this name in a long time!
After parting with her last year, he gave her a set of real estate, and at the same time, arranged another lucrative job for her.
Alan always treats his women well.
At the same time, having cut ties completely, he wants Rachel to leave his company.
But this woman was too stubborn, and even if he had personally changed her status as an official employee to a probationary employee, Rachel still refused to leave.
To put it simply, Alan didn't push her anymore, but he's barely set foot in his company since then.
For Rachel, virtue was best.
She didn't want to come to her senses, and she didn't want to let go of her illusion.
Alan immediately agreed to the contents of the email and hung up.
Compared to someone as majestic as Anette, Rachel was like a peasant.
…
At the same time, Merry watched Alan leave, patted her chest with lingering fear, turned and walked to her office.
She thought Chris hadn't come yet, but she didn't know that as soon as she approached the president's office, she vaguely saw someone walking in.
The little girl looked happy and hurriedly put her bag in her cubicle. After standing there for a few seconds, she ran to the kitchen to make Chris a cup of tea.
Regardless, she wanted to show her intention to her older brother, and she didn't want to carry this burden on her heart any longer.
Merry made a cup of tea, held the saucer and smelled the aroma. The smell wasn't strong yet, she remembered that her brother liked to drink strong tea.
The little girl slapped the corner of her mouth and dipped the tea bag back into it.
Seeing the color on the teacup getting thicker, she walked into the president's office with a satisfied face.
