Female NovelChapter 2951 Then a thin wisp of smoke began to rise in front of him.
But all of a sudden, there was the sound of high heels smacking the ground outside the smoking room. This sound was quickly followed by the voice of a store clerk, “Miss Brown, we will do our best to meet Mr. Waston's requirements. It would be great if you could put in a good word for us. I know he has high regard for you.” Marcus curled his lips slightly as he listened to this.
Frankly, he was quite indifferent about such conversations. But just as he was about to ignore it, he overheard the response-a soft, sweet voice. “I'll do what I can.
The clerk shook her head and complained, “Mr. Waston just has too many female companions!” Marcus had been stunned when he heard the second voice.

There were a lot of feelings swirling around, except for relief.
Even though many years had passed, they both still hadn't found closure. Now that they had met unexpectedly, even a simple polite greeting seemed difficult.
The store clerk hesitated for a moment before asking Melissa in a low voice, “Do you know Mr. Fowler?” Melissa finally regained her composure and forced a smile to her face.
“Yes, I used to be his secretary,” she explained.
“Oh,” the store clerk gasped in surprise. She now finally understood the situation. “Let me go get some cups of coffee while you and Mr. Fowler catch up.” She did not even give Melissa a chance to decline before rushing off.
But as the sound of the clerk's footsteps died away, a young woman suddenly came from nowhere and jumped into Marcus’ arms playfully.
“Marcus, this dress is not really convenient for me to move around,” she complained with a pout.
