Chapter 736 The sight that was truly astonishing was that of the child perched on Ms. Pritchardâs shoulder.
Wasnât he the same child that the CEO often brought into the company, rumored to be his illegitimate son? That rumor had spread throughout The Tim Group like wildfire.
The child was alleged to be the product of a secret affair between the CEO and that actress Sharon. But why was he with Ms.
Pritchard now?
The intricate circumstances werenât something the receptionists were privy to.
The voluptuous receptionist was particularly enthusiastic this time, âMs. Pritchard, are you here to see the CEO? Iâll escort you to the private elevator.â
Agnes didnât want to attract attention, so she briskly walked towards the elevator. Once she stepped into the elevator, she breathed a sigh of relief.
The elevator smoothly ascended, halting at the 66th floor. Stepping out of the elevator, she arrived at Jaredâs secretarial department. It was a vast openâplan office.
It was lunchtime, and most of the staff had gone out for a bite. Only a few remained, hard at work Agnes spotted Anita Drake.
Anita was dressed in a sharp professional attire. She seemed much more composed than before Anita was visibly surprised to see Agnes, almost not recognizing her, âAgnes, is that you?â
Agnes nodded with a smile, âItâs been years, Anita.â
âItâs been too long, Agnes. How have you been these years?â
Anita had been at The Tim Group for four years, and sheâd heard much about Agnes. Everyone knew that four years ago, the CEO and Agnes divorced. The once darling of Hollywood had suddenly vanished from the public eye.
Who would have thought that four years later, Agnes would return?
Agnes managed a smile, âIâm doing well, how about you?â
Iâve recently been promoted, Iâm a senior secretary now Agnes nodded, âWho wouldâve thought the former gossipâloving intern would become a professional workaholic?â
Anita blushed, noticing the child on Agnes shoulder. âIs this your son?â
Agnes nodded Anita was taken aback, because this child was known by everyone in the secretarial 3 department.
The CEO used to bring this child to work daily.
So, this was Agnesâ child. Does this mean the CEO and Agnes have reconciled? It was indeed a surprise. But there was no time for Anita to catch up with Agnes.
Seeing Agnes holding the child in one arm and struggling with a food container in the other, Anita quickly asked, âAre you here to see the CEO? Heâs in his office.â
Agnes nodded, âYou carry on with your work, Iâll head there.â
Without knocking, Agnes stepped into the office.
Anita watched Agnesâ retreating figure with a sense of wonder.
With Agnes back, the dynamics at The Tim Group were bound to change.
When Agnes walked inside, Jared was engrossed in his work.
He didnât even notice Agnesâ arrival.
Agnes walked over, placing the food container on Jaredâs desk, âMr. Busybody, youâre making all this money, do you even have time to spend it all?â
Jared finally looked up. Seeing Agnes, there was a clear flicker of surprise and delight in his eyes âWhat took you so long? I was starving.â
He got up, smoothly taking Nocturne from Agnesâ arms, setting him on the couch and tucking him in with a blanket.
Agnes started to unpack the food container on the table, âItâs been quite a while since I cooked, not sure how it turned out.â
