Chapter 264 I Asked for Leave Because I Felt A Little
Uncomfortable
The next morning, Evelyn went to the company with Huston. The small incident last night did not affect
the atmosphere. between them. On the contrary, Evelyn skipped work for a few days and returned to
work, which made her a little uneasy.
She didn’t say a word along the way. Sitting in the passenger seat, she was unusually quiet. Huston
could tell what was on her mind and comforted her in a low voice, “Don’t worry. Matt
has already informed your boss.”
Of course, Evelyn knew that Huston would deal with it, but
even so, it could not dispel the fear in her heart. After all, her
relationship with Huston was well-known in the company and even in society. No one dared to make
trouble for her openly, so she needed self-discipline more.
Now that she had skipped work for so long, how would Flora
look at her?
She nervously arrived at the entrance of the company. After getting out of the car, she took the elevator

her. She met their eyes and smiled cautiously. “Good morning,
everyone.”
Ada blinked and thought that she had seen it wrong. She waved at her and gave her a way out. “You’re
finally here. I’ve been very busy recently. Come here quickly.”
Evelyn walked over. The moment she sat down, she finally felt
at ease.
Ada poked her head out and said, “You’re finally here. I couldn’t get through to you, and I couldn’t find
you. I thought you had resigned.”
“No.” Evelyn stroked her hair guiltily. “I’ve been feeling a little unwell recently, so I asked for leave.”
“Tsk.” Ada clicked her tongue. “You may be able to deceive others, but you can’t deceive me. You’re
not the kind who quits when you’re not feeling well. I guess it has something to do
with Mr. Lloyd, right?”
Hearing her words, Evelyn’s expression became even more
unnatural.
Ada didn’t make things difficult for her. She handed her the document in her hand and said, “Take a
look at the recent
meeting minutes.”
“Thank you, Ada.” Evelyn was very touched. It was really
difficult to have such a close friend at work.
Ada waved her hand and said, “You’re welcome.””
She hadn’t been there for several days, and her workload had piled up. She needed time to reorganize,
and it took her the entire morning to get it done. When she finally looked up, it was already past
lunchtime. Suddenly, she better understood
why Huston had been working late into the night.
She was just an ordinary employee, but she was already like
this, let alone the company’s boss.
Evelyn raised her hand and rubbed her sore neck. She kept
her head down for too long and was stiff.
The phone on the table vibrated twice. She picked it up and saw a text message from Huston: Have

These four words were concise without any unnecessary
words.
She curled her lips slightly, and her fingertips were beating happily on the screen, just like her heart at
this time. “Not yet.
I’ve been busy with work just now.”
Fing it, she clicked to send it. The green progress bar
had not been read yet. Behind her, Flora returned to the office in advance after dinner and called her
name. “Evelyn, come here.”
She immediately put down her phone and followed her into the office.
After closing the door, Flora walked to the sofa in the middle of the office and sat down. She pointed to
the seat opposite her and said, “Sit.”
“I’m good, Ms. Atkins. I’ll just stand there.” Evelyn quickly waved her hand.
Flora smiled and said, “It’s okay. Have a seat and chat with me. Don’t be shy.”
Only then did Evelyn sit down respectfully opposite her.
