Chapter 83

Madeline was wondering if Elizabeth had Multiple Personality Disorder. The way she treated her was so inconsistent.

At this moment, a tall and slender figure appeared at the door.

Elizabeth’s eyes lit up. “Mr. Whitman, why are you here?”

Her attitude changed. She was now extremely gentle.

When the rest of the employees heard this, they placed down their bags and smiled respectfully at Felipe. “Mr. Whitman.”

Madeline finally came back to her senses. However, everyone had already finished greeting him. It would be as if she was trying to stand out if she greeted him now. So, she only nodded and smiled at Felipe.

Felipe smiled at Madeline before walking in. He had an imposing manner to him. He was very handsome and elegant.

“Everyone, thank you for your hard work. Good luck on the new project,” he said with a gentle tone.

Elizabeth eyed her colleagues immediately and everyone understood what she meant immediately.

“Thank you for your concern, Mr. Whitman. We’ll do our best!”

“Okay.” Felipe nodded.

Elizabeth played with her long and curly hair. As she waited for Felipe to approach her expectantly, she saw him walking past her and headed directly to Madeline.

Elizabeth’s smile cracked. The other employees looked over in curiosity.

Madeline felt something was going on. It seemed that Madeline had feelings for Felipe. However, when her brain finally registered that, Felipe was already standing in front of her.

“Maddie.” He called out gently, “How are you holding up?”

Madeline stood up quickly. “Mr. Whitman, I’m fine. Thank you for giving me such a great opportunity.”

“We’re family. You don’t have to be so courteous to me.” Felipe’s smile was gentle.

However, when everyone heard his response, the entire office exploded.

Everyone looked at Madeline in shock and puzzlement. They desperately wanted to know how Madeline was related to their boss.

“We’re having a family dinner tonight. I’m going home as well so I’ll take you along.”

Madeline hesitated and rejected the offer. “No need, I can go myself.”

“We’re going to the same place anyway. Why are you being so courteous?” Felipe asked with a smile.

His tone was gentle.

Madeline did not know how to reject him anymore. She would look pretentious if she rejected him again.

However, if she did not, they would look too intimate.

When the atmosphere was getting awkward, Felipe opened his mouth.

“Even though Maddie and I have a special relationship, she got into our company with her own talents.

Maddie is still new here, so I hope you’ll take good care of her.”

“Don’t worry, Mr. Whitman, I’ll take good care of Maddie!” Elizabeth ran over just in time. After that, she even patted Madeline’s shoulder intimately. “Maddie, just ask me if there’s anything you’re unsure of.

Mr. Whitman’s friend is my friend!”

Hehe.

Madeline looked at Elizabeth’s pretentious smile and felt extremely awkward.

Then, Madeline and Felipe left under everyone’s complicated gazes.

When the lift was on the first floor, Madeline’s phone rang. It was from Jeremy.

She looked at the caller ID. After a few seconds of hesitating, she hung up the phone.

This was the first time she hung up on him.

“Why didn’t you answer?” Felipe asked curiously.

Madeline smiled lightly. “It’s just a scam caller.”

After she said that, the lift arrived on their floor. When the door opened and Madeline was about to walk out, she saw Jeremy dressed in all black standing in front of her with cold air around him.
