Chapter 11 She Was Close to Many Men

In the afternoon, Eloise, the representative of Sava Company, and Adam, the director of the advertising department of Girado Group, went to Callan’s office together to hand over the proposal to Callan.
Once Callan signed the proposal, it would take effect, and Sava Company would begin the shooting.
While waiting for Callan’s approval in his office, Eloise saw a large screen projector with a remote controller in front of it.
Eloise at once conceived an idea. Since Julian liked to play games, she could give him a game controller.
“There is no problem with the proposal,” Callan said.
“Huh?” Eloise was distracted just now and didn’t recover for a while.
“There is no problem with the proposal!” Callan was a little annoyed when he saw that she didn’t listen to him carefully.
“Understood, Mr. Barone,” Adam said. Then he glanced at
Eloise.
He thought Eloise was still worried about Derek’s medical
Chapter 11 She Was Close to Many Men
expenses.
Eloise’s cell phone rang again.

Eloise frowned slightly. “Excuse me, Mr. Barone. I’m going out to answer the phone.”
Only Callan and Adam were left in the office.
“The company is a workplace. If you want to date, go to another place,” Callan said to Adam coldly.
Being scolded by Callan, Adam was embarrassed.
“Mr. Barone, we didn’t. There is an emergency today.” Adam didn’t want to be wrongly accused of dating during working hours, so he told Callan about Eloise’s family and confessed that he wanted to pay for Eloise but was rejected by Eloise.
“Is the employee transferred to the front desk Eloise’s cousin?” Callan asked.
Although Callan had met Eliza several times, he couldn’t remember her name.
“Yes.”
“I see. You go out first.”
E
After Callan finished speaking, Adam left the office awkwardly.
Eloise came in after hanging up the phone.

She was on the phone with her back to the office just now, so she didn’t see Adam leave.
“Mr. Barone, where’s Adam?” Eloise asked.
“What’s your opinion on the treatment of your cousin?” Callan remained expressionless.
“What?” Callan suddenly changed the topic, and Eloise was somewhat at a loss.
“As for your family matter, do you need me to find a lawyer for you?” Callan said again.
Eloise knew Adam had already told Callan about her family. At the thought that Callan was aware of her terrible family affairs, Eloise felt ashamed.
“Thank you, Mr. Barone, but I don’t need it.” Eloise was very grateful to Callan in her heart.
“Since you don’t need it, don’t deal with personal affairs during working hours!” Callan said coldly.
Eloise said nothing.
She was embarrassed. Eloise thought he was concerned about her, but it turned out that he cared about his company. He wanted to squeeze her last surplus value. She shouldn’t have been grateful to him.
Chapter 11 She Was Close to Many Men “Okay, I won’t!” After speaking, Eloise turned away.

It was Brian who made the call just now, saying that Medea was waiting at the company to advance Eloise’s commission, but
Brian didn’t agree.
It didn’t mean that Brian treated Eloise so well. He was a miser. Girado Group hadn’t paid the money for the next stage, so Brian wouldn’t agree to pay the commission in advance.
Eloise realized Medea wanted to get 500 thousand dollars as soon as possible.
She had expressly written that it should be given to her within five years, and she had consented. Why had she changed her mind now?
Back at the office, Eloise ordered a game controller online for 6,999 dollars, more than enough to cover the rent spread. She decided to give it to Julian as a gift, without hurting anyone’s feelings, and he would surely like it.
Because she had been working at Girado Group during this period, Eloise left the address of Girado Group.
She wanted the game controller delivered to her first, so she could check it out.
Two days later, Eloise’s parcel was delivered to the front desk of Girado Group.
With sharp eyes, Eliza saw Eloise’s parcel at a glance. The
5/8
Chapter 11 She Was Close to Many Men delivery slip read: [Aurora third generation wireless Bluetooth controller (black).]
Eloise had never played games. This game controller must have been given to a man, but it was not given to Callan. A president like Callan didn’t play games at all.
Didn’t Callan protect Eloise? Eliza would like to make Callan sad to see who Eloise cared the most.
So, Eliza pretended to be careless and put Eloise’s parcel into Callan’s parcels.
At this moment, someone walked in from the hall. It was
Beatrice.
Everyone in the company knew Beatrice and said she was a victim of the relationship between Eloise and Callan.
Eliza hurriedly muttered to the colleagues next to her in a loud voice.
“Mr. Barone has Eloise’s back. I was transferred to the front desk because I offended Eloise over a trivial matter,” Eliza said.
“Yeah, I heard that Mr. Barone gave Eloise a project worth 600 million dollars without going through the bidding process. In this way, Eloise could come to work in the company justifiably.”
“If Mr. Barone wanted Eloise to work in the company, it would be better to let her be his secretary. The private one.”
Chapter 11 She Was Close to Many Men Then, they laughed happily.
Beatrice heard their conversation and then flew into a rage.

“Hush!” Eliza pretended to see Beatrice now and told everyone to shut up.
“Is there any parcel for Mr. Barone?” Beatrice asked the staff at the front desk with a smile.
Every time she went to Callan’s office, she had to hold something in her hand, lest Callan thought she was looking for him for no
reason.
“Oh, yes. I have already packed, and it’s here,” Eliza said with a smile, and then she put some of Callan’s parcels into Beatrice’s hands.
Holding the parcels in her arms, Beatrice entered Callan’s office.
As she placed the parcels on the desk, Eloise’s parcel happened to slip in front of Callan.
Beatrice wondered why Eloise’s parcel was inside, if she had done it on purpose, or if the front desk staff had made a mistake.
“Eloise’s parcel?” Callan frowned slightly and picked it up.
The slip noted that it was a black game controller.
Undoubtedly, it should be given to a man, but Callan didn’t know who the man was.

Chapter 11 She Was Close to Many Men Anyway, Eloise was close to many men.

“Eloise’s? How come?” Beatrice pretended to just find out. “Did
I take it by mistake?”
Callan knew Beatrice’s purpose, but he ignored her. He was already calling Eloise.
Beatrice asked herself if he was so impatient to see Eloise.
Eloise heard that her parcel was taken to the president’s office by mistake, so she came up quickly.
“Your parcel,” Callan said to Eloise expressionlessly, sitting behind the desk.
“Well, okay.” After Eloise finished speaking, she took the game controller from the desk.
Beatrice was here. Therefore, Eloise didn’t want to be an unwanted third party for a long time.
After all, Beatrice was two or three months pregnant.
“Does Eloise still play games?” After Eloise left, Beatrice reminded Callan of the game controller intentionally.
Callan was writing. His hand stopped for a while, but he didn’t make a sound.
