Chapter 1319: Find a Way to Escape
The executives saw the name Janelle and immediately knew it was a girl, so everyone couldn’t help but speculate whether this girl might be related to Mr. Trevino.They all secretly decided she was his girlfriend.
As the top executive assistant, Simon was unfamiliar with this name.
Who is Janelle? He really didn’t know.
Seated next to Simon, Cecilia Dunn was even less informed; someone who could have the CEO’s WeChat and chat idly must have an unusual status.
Trevor picked up his phone and almost without hesitation, sent back a similar emoji.
Because it was being screened, everyone saw these two emojis clearly.
No one expected that Mr. Trevino would have such cute emojis saved on his WeChat!
He’s usually such a cool and aloof person!
"Pursue your ideals with dedication, be pure in the present moment," Trevor put down his phone and quickly got back on topic, his voice deep and magnetic, "After navigating the devastating pandemic of 2020, this year marks a new beginning. Although it’s near the end of the year, this project embodies everyone’s hard work."
The WeChat notification sound chimed again; the girl named Janelle sent another message.
Everyone looked up at the screen—
’What are you doing?’
A simple five-word message, and anyone who’s been in love knows what it implies.
It’s very simple; it means she’s thinking about you.
Trevor paused his speech; when he picked up the phone and saw the message, his expression changed slightly. He glanced around and noticed everyone was looking at the screen.
He was momentarily stunned and instinctively turned around, only to realize the screen was still displaying after receiving the data!
Trevor withdrew his gaze and calmly turned off the screen casting.
Then, with his long fingers, he replied to Janelle Mills with two words: Meeting.
Though just two simple words, it was his way of showing he wasn’t ignoring her.
After putting down the phone, Trevor reimmersed himself in work and resumed the conversation.
Everyone listened intently, taking notes.
Janelle Mills didn’t send another message to disturb him. The fact that he took the time to reply to her even while in a meeting proved that she mattered to him.
At least from a girl’s perspective, that’s how she saw it.
So, Janelle Mills was even more determined to leave.
She wasn’t going to go on any arranged dates!
Even if Trevor had a girlfriend, she wanted to see Riventhal one last time!
So, she thought it over carefully, held her stomach, knocked on the closed living room door, and started her act, "Open up, open up. My stomach hurts... Ah, I can’t take it..."
Not long after, the door opened.
The two men saw her clutching her stomach in pain, unable to stand, with a pained look on her face, and exchanged glances.
At first, they didn’t believe it because she was fine a moment ago.
"My stomach hurts, take me to the hospital?" Janelle Mills gasped, glancing up in agony, "I’ve had stomach problems since I was a kid; maybe the acute gastroenteritis is acting up again..."
Seeing her in such discomfort, one of the men was about to take out his phone to call.
But Janelle Mills grabbed his wrist and frowned, saying, "Don’t call my mom; she’s busy with urgent matters today. Just the two of you take me to the hospital."
She was in so much pain that speaking was a struggle, "It hurts... Just get some meds from the hospital."
Seeing her persistence, and the situation looking quite urgent, along with her saying, "You two big men watching over just me? Afraid you can’t handle it?"
"My mom asked you to watch over me, but what if I die at home from the pain? Can you still get the money? You’ll probably get into legal trouble, right?"
What she said was logical; lives are more important than anything else.
The men dared not delay for a moment, "Let’s go, to the hospital!" They supported her toward the elevator, "Miss Mills, hold on a little longer!"
