Chapter 538

作者: Ink the Seventh
Sierra originally planned to hire a personal assistant to handle the day-to-day work at the office a month earlier. Before HR could even post the opening, Marcus had already volunteered.

What did he say back then again?

It went something along the lines of, "I'll be your assistant."

She had asked him, "Why?"

And then, his answer was, "I'm with you around the clock as your bodyguard anyway. I'm the best person for it."

"No." She had turned him down without a second thought. "It would be

    "Kenneth!" Danny shouted at Kenneth, furious.Kenneth kept a cold look on his face, his attitude perfectly clear. Bringing up the past had stirred up his emotions too. He walked to the door, pulled it open, and told them to leave. "Please."The moment he said it, he saw Sierra standing outside. At the same time, Danny and Agnes walked over as well, and their eyes met.Danny turned all his anger on Sierra. "You've still got the nerve to come here!"Sierra stayed perfectly calm. "If you two can be here, why can't I?""I really don't know what John ever saw in you," Danny snapped."Viciousness and heartlessness." Sierra calmly threw the words back at him without the slightest change in expression. "Or maybe coldness and greed."Kenneth froze as his mind went blank for a few seconds. Was this really Sierra?"I told you she was up to no good. Now you've heard it for yourself!" Agnes seized the chance and started making a scene again.Danny gave Sierra a hard stare and threw out t

    Sierra wasn't as worried anymore once she heard what Marcus had to say. "What did you do before this?"Marcus was good in a fight, good-looking, excelled as an assistant, and he could even easily handle Medicare Software's work. Why would someone that is capable of multiple angles choose to be a bodyguard?"A man," Marcus answered.Sierra didn't get it at first. "Hm?"Marcus repeated himself. "I was being a man."Sierra looked at him. "And you're not doing that now?""Now I'm a bodyguard, an assistant, and a driver." As Marcus spoke, his thoughts drifted back to money. He changed the subject and called her. "Miss."Sierra raised her eyes.Marcus drove as steadily as usual. "How about paying me a driver's salary, too? I'm pretty good behind the wheel.""Sure." Sierra was usually generous with people whose requests made sense. Paying him more was not a problem since he was just that capable. Still, she wondered if his answer just now was a deliberate evasion or something insti

    "No need to thank me," Solomon said as he looked at Robin. "Just get John to give me the CEO position at Henderson Group."Robin kept his tone polite. "You must be joking. If a single word from me could do that, I would've asked the boss for a huge payout ages ago and gone home to retire.""Then you can tell me about all the mistakes John's made over the years," Solomon said."Mr. Henderson doesn't make mistakes," Robin replied.Solomon chuckled. "I'll pay you double. Come work for me.""Sure," Robin said.Solomon was momentarily caught off guard. A hint of surprise crossed his eyes. He clearly had not expected that answer.Before Solomon could think it through, Robin finished the rest. "Anyone in Henderson Group can be assigned wherever the CEO wants. You're treating me very well by giving me a chance to get double pay for doing the same work."Solomon laughed softly. Robin really was something.Sierra watched Solomon's car drive away. Even after it disappeared from view,

    Solomon looked at Sierra, as refined and gentle as ever. "Long time no see.""You probably didn't come here to catch up." Sierra was as direct as ever. "My mom said you wanted to see me. What for?""Do you know something happened to John?" Solomon asked."I do," Sierra said."Go back and see him," Solomon said."We're already divorced." Sierra gave the same answer as she did everyone else and refused to show even a little of her emotion. "You came to the wrong place.""When I made that deal with you back then, you promised to spare his life." Solomon brought up the past again, his voice calm. "I came to collect on that promise.""We left on our own back then," Sierra said.Solomon nodded. "Indeed.""So the deal doesn't count," argued Sierra."Whether it counts or not depends on whether I did what I promised, not on whether you used it," Solomon said. "As the head of Medicare Software, you should understand that."Sierra knew that, of course. But she did not believe it was

    "Whatever. Sierra was at fault too!" Kenneth could not win the argument with Robin, so he started being unreasonable."You should go back and get some rest," Robin suggested to him. "I'll stay here with Mr. Henderson. I'll give you a call the second he wakes up.""It's fine." Kenneth refused. "I'm staying here with him."John's wife wasn't here. His best friend could not abandon him like that, either.Seeing that Kenneth would not budge, Robin said nothing else. When he saw John was still unconscious, he sent Sierra a message.[Ms. Bell, you don't need to worry too much. Mr. Henderson has only collapsed from exhaustion because he didn't have enough rest. It isn't as serious as Mr. Gomez made it sound.]Sierra replied almost at once. [Okay.]Robin sent another message. [Please rest soon.]Sierra bit her now pale lip as she looked at that sentence that was still as respectful and polite as it had always been over the past five years.Her fingers typed a few more words. [Why did

    "Sierra, where are you?" Kenneth sounded anxious, speaking faster than usual. "Something happened to John. Can you come to Jade City?"Sierra froze. "What happened to him?""He collapsed. He's in the hospital now." Kenneth tried to explain as clearly as he could.The tightness in Sierra's chest eased a little.For the past month, no one had mentioned John in front of her. John had not contacted her, either. She was so swamped with work and stressed about every dinner that she had no free time to think about anything else. That was why when she heard something had happened to him, her heart tightened on instinct.Maybe she just didn't want anything to happen to Tommy's father. Or maybe those five years of love had rooted deep into her heart."He's been doing really badly this whole time." Kenneth stood outside the hospital room, looking through the small window at the man lying in bed, pale and exhausted. "Can you come see him?"Sierra was silent for a moment. "I'm not a doctor

    Kenneth was wondering why John was so calm after the plan had failed. It turned out there was a backup plan.Everyone in Jade City knew Nicholas didn't get along with the rest of his family. He and his father were always arguing, so much so that his father, Michael Young, once lost his temper and t

    "He can paint as many targets on my back as he wants," Nicholas said to Sierra. He had never been afraid of anyone. "You don't need to worry about me. Just live your life like you always do.""Nicholas," Sierra called him, feeling he was being stubborn again."You think I came back because I f

    It had been four years since they last saw each other. But their three-person group chat had never gone quiet, so they were just as close."No matter how the world changes, I'll never change," Nicholas declared with absolute confidence.Sierra chuckled.Nicholas glanced at the martial arts cent

    "Didn't I tell you not to disturb us unless we call for you?" Nicholas said the instant the door opened, impatience clear in his eyes.The floor manager's heart was pounding, but he kept his cool as he walked over to Sierra with a bouquet. "These flowers are for you, Ms. Bell."Sierra paused.She
