Chapter 22 - Sending Documents

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The secretary at the side had been waiting for a long time. When she heard Noah’s instructions, she turned around to get the document. After rummaging through the document bag for a long time, she realized that the document had not been brought over. She was stunned for a moment. How could this be? It was clearly prepared in advance. How could it not be in the document bag? The secretary started to recall in a panic.

She seemed to have left it at the CEO’s house. The secretary recalled it carefully. Last night, the CEO had a late dinner and Madam was not at home, so she accompanied the chauffeur to send the CEO home. During that time, she seemed to have conveniently placed the document file at the entrance.

What should she do? The secretary was so anxious that she was about to cry.

Noah, who was beside her, was chatting and laughing with the people around him. If she contacted his wife behind the CEO’s back to deliver the documents, and so late at night, if the CEO found out about it, the secretary felt that she would not have long to live.

However, if the documents did not show up today, she probably wouldn’t be able to survive tonight. After weighing the pros and cons, the secretary called the CEO’s wife.

“Please, Madam, you must answer the phone!” the secretary thought anxiously.

The call was picked up after a few beeps. “Hello, who is this?”

Mia’s gentle voice sounded like a heavenly voice to the secretary. It was as if she had found a life-saving straw. The secretary hurriedly said, “Madam, I am President Noah’s secretary.”

When Mia heard this, she was stunned. Why would Noah’s secretary suddenly call her? Could something have happened to Noah? Mia thought and momentarily panicked.

She was about to ask.

The secretary on the other end of the line couldn’t wait to speak first. “Madam, it’s like this. The CEO’s document is left at home. Today is a crucial day for the collaborator to increase the project funds. This document is especially important. Can I trouble you to send it over?”

The secretary, afraid that Madam would reject her request, nervously finished speaking in one breath and could only mention the CEO.

Mia was relieved to hear that from the other end of the line. Fortunately, Noah who wasn’t in trouble, Mia thought.

Seeing that Mia didn’t respond for a long time, the secretary nervously shouted, “Madam, are you listening? I’ll send a car to pick you up immediately.”

Mia replied softly, “Where’s the document?”

Upon hearing that Madam had agreed, the secretary said happily, “It’s on the front porch. You can see it when you reach the door.”

After hanging up the phone, Mia took a short break before going to the bedroom to change her clothes. She had been very tired for the past few days, and his grandfather’s condition had been flaring up over and over again. She hadn’t had a good rest because of her worries.

Moreover, Mia didn’t really want to see Noah’s socializing scene. Previously, Noah had insisted on bringing Mia to the two socializing events, which had left a very bad impression on Mia. Hence, Mia instinctively resisted this occasion now. With this thought in mind, she walked to the entrance downstairs. Coincidentally, the car that was picking Mia up had also reached the entrance. Hence, Mia picked up the folder and went out to get into the car.

The car sped all the way to where Noah was entertaining.

“Madam, we’re here.” The driver opened the door for Mia.

Mia got out of the car in a daze and saw the words “Junyuan”.

Mia instantly recalled the incident at the airport a while back. Back then, it seemed that the reporters were talking about this hotel.

Junyuan… This was where Noah and Jenny met.

What did they do in this hotel? Were they discussing divorcing her? Or were the two of them sharing their heartfelt feelings? Mia felt sad at the thought of this scene. Why did Noah have to come to this hotel for his socializing? Why did he have to let me hear the word Junyuan at the time?

Mia’s heart began to ache again at the thought. She wanted to turn around and go back because she was afraid to see the scene of Noah and Jenny together, but the document was still in her hands.

The secretary’s call came again.

Mia didn’t take it. Then she looked up at Junyuan’s sign again before she got up and walked inside.

“Madam, we’re in the White Elixir Dispensary’s private room on the first floor. I’ll be waiting for you at the door.” The secretary saw that Mia was not answering her phone, so she sent a message over.

Mia walked into the hotel, and a waiter dressed appropriately walked up and asked, “Hello, how can I help you?”

“I’m going to the White Elixir Dispensary’s private room on the first floor.” Mia wasn’t in a good condition at the moment. After several days of exhaustion and sadness, she didn’t speak very loudly, but she ensured that the waiter could hear her.

When the waiter heard Mia’s words, he instantly felt that her voice was really soft.

He looked up at Mia again. Although Mia was not in a good state, it did not affect Mia’s beauty, especially her fragile appearance, which made people want to protect her. Hence, the waiter also changed to a gentle voice. “Come with me. I’ll bring you there.”

Mia nodded and followed the waiter.

When they were almost at the door of the private room, Mia saw Noah’s secretary from afar. She looked around anxiously while waiting for Mia.

When she saw Mia, she hurriedly ran up to welcome her.

“Thank you so much, ma’ am,” the secretary said gratefully..
