Chapter 33 Mikayla returned to her room, showered, and changed into a fresh outfit.
She applied some makeup and decided to meet Taylor after breakfast.
However, when she approached her computer she noticed her USB drive was missing.
Despite searching around, she couldnât find it anywhere.
She had stored important data on it the previous night. Where could it have gone?
She asked Amy, but Amy shook her head. âI knocked on your door this morning, but you didnât answer. Since the door wasnât locked, I entered your room but never touched your things.
âDid Jerome enter my room this morning?â Mikayla asked.
Seeing Mikaylaâs solemn expression, Amy grew nervous. âHe did. He saw your phone in your room. So he assumed you hadnât left. Is the USB drive important, Mrs. Miller? Would you like me to help you search for it again?â
It wasnât about the USB drive. It was the crucial data inside. If Jerome saw it, all her efforts would be in vain.
âIâll manage it myself. Thank you.â
Mikayla immediately called Jerome, but he didnât answer.
Damn it. What was the use of having a phone if he wouldnât answer it?
Mikayla put her phone away and had a light breakfast before driving to the Miller Group.
When she arrived at the lobby she thought the receptionist would stop her again.
However, she was met by a new receptionist who greeted her warmly with a bright smile.
The receptionist politely said, âMrs. Miller, welcome! Let me escort you to the CEOâs office immediately.â
Puzzled, Mikayla asked âDoes Jerome know Iâm coming â
The receptionist smiled and replied, âWe havenât received any notification from Mr. Miller. However, itâs our policy that nobody stops you when you visit. We should escort you directly to the CEOâs office.â
2/2 Mikayla was utterly confused.
Why would Jerome approve such a ridiculous rule?
Moreoverâ¦
âHow do you know me?â
The receptionist replied promptly, âThe first thing we need to learn during our onâthe- Job training is to familiarize ourselves with important personnel at the Miller Group and those to Mr. Miller.â
Mikayla was utterly confused. She wasnât affiliated with the Miller Group, and she definitely was not an important person to Jerome.
Did she enter the wrong place?
âMrs. Miller, this way, please.â The receptionist courteously extended her hand.
âAlright, thank you.â
Mikayla didnât want to dwell on it. Perhaps because she was Jeromeâs wife, the staff considered her an âimportantâ person.
Upon reaching the CEOâs office, the secretary informed her that Jerome was in a meeting. The secretary guided her into his office and even politely offered her coffee.
Previously, unless she came with Wanda, she could hardly step into the CEOâs office, let alone receive such good treatment.
As Mikayla was speculating about what Jerome was up to, the office door suddenly swung open.
She glanced over and saw the wellâdressed Jerome entering with Mike.
Mike was reporting something to Jerome. He greeted her when he saw her. âMrs. Miller.â
Mikayla smiled in response. Then, she coldly turned to Jerome. âDid you drive?â
take my USB Jeromeâs gaze darkened. He walked over to the sofa where she was sitting.
âIâve read the proposal with Ansoft. It was done quite meticulously.â
Jerome gestured to Mike, and Mike promptly handed over a set of documents to Mikayla.
She frowned and looked down.
