Chapter 1115

"You..." Although Rowane was angry, she still shut her mouth when she saw Evan's angry facialexpression.

She then turned around to scrutinize the machinery and then described the damage done in a loudvoice.

I got that she was doing that on purpose, just so I would hear her.

It was then I noticed the marks on the wall, and I couldn't help but go up and took a closer look atthem. The place where the machine had smashed into just then had a layer of white paint chippedoff, revealing the bricks inside.

Seeing that I was looking at them carefully, Evan said, "Madam, there are too many people hereand it's so chaotic. Why don't you head over into the office?"

I looked back at him and asked, "Was this base built by the Milton Group or the Roberts Group?"

Despite feeling that my question was strange, he still replied, "The Milton Group. What's thematter?"

I shook my head. Looking at the wall, I subconsciously knocked on it. It sounded hollow

to me.

However, nothing else looked out of the ordinary!

"Miss Reid, can you come over and verify the data?" Hugo came over with a large pile ofdocuments in his arms.

I nodded and withdrew my gaze. I took the data from Hugo's hands and asked, "All of these haven'tbeen taken care of?"

Hugo nodded as he replied, "It's almost the end of the month. I had to sort out these items earlierand report them to the higher-ups. I'm getting old and didn't receive much education. I'll have totrouble you!"

I scanned the files in my hands and nodded. Then, I asked, "Mr. Lance, are the walls of this basebuilt according to the specifications of the temporary buildings?"

He shook his head, "No, this base was built strictly in accordance with the management standardsof a residential house. In order to ensure that the base is quiet, the foundation was built one and ahalf times wider. The walls are really thick!"

The answer wasn't what I anticipated. I couldn't help but look at the spot that I'd crashed into justthen. However, since Hugo was in a hurry, I stopped asking questions and started working on thefiles.

My back started to ache after a long day. After I got off work, Hendrix sent me a text, telling me thathe had already arrived in Jarold City.

I was so tired that I went back to the hotel without having dinner. When I came out of the bathroomafter a shower, my phone rang.

It was Hendrix. I picked up the phone and laid down on the bed with my eyes closed. I greeted him,"Good evening, Mr. Roberts!"

He laughed a little in reply, "Have you had dinner? What are you doing?"

If I told him I hadn't eaten anything, he would certainly continue to nag me, so I simply lied, "Yes, Ihave. What about you? Have you eaten?"

"Yes, I'm eating now!" As he spoke, I heard the sound of glass clinking on the other side.

I couldn't help but ask, "You're eating outside?"

"Yes!" He replied.

My hair was still damp, and it was hanging down on my back, causing my back to dampen. Icouldn't help but turn over and asked, "With who?"

He smiled lightly, "A...woman!"

I pursed my lips, "A young woman? Or an older woman?"

"A young woman!"

I couldn't help but slightly narrow my eyes, "Is she

beautiful?"

He replied, "Yes, she's beautiful!"novelbin

I curled my lips as I asked, "Prettier than me?"

On the other side of the phone, he smiled and said, "You're both equally pretty!"

I took a deep breath and looked at the phone. Already feeling a little unhappy, I said, "Hendrix,please explain yourself, or I'll hang up."

The people on the other side of the phone laughed loudly, as if impossibly merry.

The laughter was quite pleasant to the ear. I had thought that he was really having a meal with awoman, but as I listened to the laughter, I couldn't help but narrow my eyes. I think I knew the

person he was actually having dinner with!
