Chapter 6 Are You Worthy of My Laugh?
The receptionist wanted to check Eloise in, but she whispered something coyly.
“What?” Callan didn’t hear it, and he frowned slightly.
“I have no money,” Eloise repeated in a low voice.
As the design director of the advertising department at Sava Company, she didn’t even have the money for the hotel, which was funny.
Callan still didn’t hear it. He bent down and moved closer to Eloise. “What did you say? I didn’t hear it.”
“I have no money!” Eloise said.
“Where’s your money? Did you spend it on men?” Callan seemed to be sternly reprimanding his subordinate.
“I didn’t!” Eloise retorted with dissatisfaction.

However, she felt that her denial was useless. She treated Callan as a hustler that night, so in his eyes, she might do that kind of thing.
“How much do you have?” Callan looked at Eloise and asked.

Chapter 6 Are You Worthy of My Laugh? “Three…” Eloise’s face blushed more, and she felt embarrassed.
“Three thousand dollars?” Callan asked.
“Three cents. Mr. Barone, you can laugh at me.” Eloise said with a self–deprecating smile.
She only had three cents, but she pestered Callan all day long for a business of six hundred million dollars.
Wasn’t it a farce?
“Are you worthy of my laugh?” Callan looked Eloise up and down.
Eloise’s face was slightly flushed. As she held the suitcase in one hand and the mobile phone in the other, she looked pitifully at her feet.
“Arrange a room of Girado Group for her.” Callan ignored Eloise and said to the receptionist.
“Yes, Mr. Barone.” The receptionist checked Eloise in politely.
Callan took some cash from his wallet and handed it to Eloise.
“For me?” Eloise stared at Callan with widened eyes.
“Otherwise?” Callan was so angry that he was speechless.
“Thank you, Mr. Barone,” Eloise said.

“Call your company and remove the post quickly.” Callan left after saying this.

Eloise went to the room that Callan arranged for her, and it was
a suite.
She counted the money that Callan gave her just now, and it was more than 16 thousand dollars.
Eloise felt uneasy because she owed such a big favor to Callan. She quickly called the technical department of Sava Company and asked them to delete the post.
After that, Eloise began to look for a house on the Internet, and she also posted her post about seeking a house on the Internet.
Medea returned home and showed Eliza the photo she had just
taken.
“Is this man Mr. Barone?” Medea asked.
Eliza zoomed in on the photo and widened her eyes in disbelief. She said, “Yes, they actually went to the hotel. How could Eloise hook up with him?”
Hearing that this man was Callan, Medea was very satisfied.
Eliza quickly sent this photo to Adam, wanting him to see what Eloise had done.
Adam replied to Eliza: [It’s impossible. Eloise is not such a
Chapter 6 Are You Worthy of My Laugh? person!]
This sentence made Eliza hate Eloise even more.

Medea called a magazine and sold the photo to them. After getting a reward of 60 thousand dollars, she was very satisfied.
She thought that Callan seemed to be rich and powerful. If he didn’t allow Eloise to give her money again, wouldn’t all her efforts be in vain?
On Eloise’s note, it said that she would pay back 500 thousand dollars in five years, but now Medea thought she must get the money as soon as possible so as not to get into more trouble.
Soon, the matter about Callan and Eloise appeared in the
newspapers.
Eloise was called into the office by Brian.
Brian looked at Eloise with interest, and his eyes made Eloise feel uncomfortable.
“Eloise, you and Mr. Barone…” Brian moved his two fingers together. “You know what I mean.”
Brian seemed to be quite happy with this matter.
“No!” Eloise lied.
“Photos don’t lie. When I saw the post, I didn’t take it seriously. But I saw the photo on the news yesterday. You know, this is not
Chapter 6 Are You Worthy of My Laugh? groundless.” Brian said meaningfully.

Eloise frowned angrily. Who secretly took the photo of her and Callan? Now, she didn’t know how to explain, and Callan would be angry again. The matter of the post had just been suppressed, but the photo was released.
“If this is true, it will be easy to handle, you know? This is a project of 600 million dollars, and we must work hard. I have always wanted to have dinner with Mr. Barone, but you know, he may not care about a person at my level. But now…” Brian stroked his chin with one hand, and his eyes were meaningful. “How about you call Mr. Barone?”
Eloise didn’t want to make fun of herself.
“Mr. Harper, there is nothing between me and Mr. Barone. Even if there is, we can’t do this!” Eloise said.
Obviously, Brian didn’t believe Eloise’s words, but he didn’t say it directly.
“Eloise, why can’t we do it?” Brian patted the table and said, “Didn’t we lose this project because of you? Girado Group suddenly canceled its cooperation with us, and in the future, other companies will also hesitate to cooperate with us. If things go on like this, we will go bankrupt. You have caused such a big loss to the company, but I didn’t blame you. If you don’t try to save it, I will fire you!”
Eloise’s face became uglier. She lacked money now, and if she lost her job, it would become even worse.

Seeing that Brian wouldn’t give up if he failed to make an appointment with Callan, Eloise reluctantly agreed.

“I owe him 16 thousand dollars, and I will pay him back when I get paid. I’ll try to invite him out then. This is the only chance,” Eloise said.
She thought that Callan wouldn’t come out.
If he came, he would scold her.
“Did you borrow his money?” Brian asked Eloise suspiciously.
Eloise could tell Brian’s meaning. How many things between them that he didn’t know?
“Yeah.” Eloise felt uncomfortable being stared at by Brian. “I’ll call him when I get paid.”
Brian snapped his fingers and said, “That’s it.”
A few days later, Eloise received a salary of 38 thousand dollars.
She dialed Callan’s cell phone in Brian’s office nervously.
Callan had called her before, so she knew his mobile phone number.
In Girado Group.
Today, Beatrice went to Callan’s office, and she sat on the sofa.
Chapter 6 Are You Worthy of My Laugh? When Beatrice came, she caused a sensation in the company.
7/8
The employees were all saying that Callan, who usually didn’t have women around him, had good luck recently. First, he had a rumored girlfriend Eloise, and then the beauty Beatrice came to him.
“Callan, I don’t know why you left that day. I think you left because I was annoying,” Beatrice said pitifully to Callan with tears in her eyes.
“Not really.” Callan was packing up the things on the desk, and he didn’t bother to talk to Beatrice.
At this moment, he hoped that someone would call him out.
“You don’t love me anymore?” Beatrice said, “But I have loved you for many years.”
As Beatrice was looking at Callan eagerly and waiting for his reply, Callan’s cell phone rang.
When Callan saw the phone number, he frowned slightly.
He knew this phone number, and it belonged to Eloise.
If it was usual, Callan would not answer it, but at this moment, this call came at the right time.
He picked up the phone and said seriously, “What’s the matter?”
