Chapter 38: Boss Xu, Is She Your Secret Love Child?
CEO Xu’s office was on a corner of the floor. The wide expansive windows allowed one to witness the panoramic view surrounding the area. It went beyond the bustling business districts.
Natural sunlight poured into the office through the window panels, basking its light on every object.
Calix walked to the huge desk sitting in the middle. His deft fingers unbuttoned the dark gray jacket before he hung it on the back of the swivel chair.
Edward followed Calix until he stood opposite the desk, facing his boss. He was waiting for the next order.
At the same time, Leslie quietly made her way to the seating area. Pursing her lips, she slowly sat on a corner of the long couch. Her eyes wandered around the office. She was still so eager to explore this place.
Calix briefly glanced at Leslie. Laughter almost slipped out of his mouth. He could see her eyes overflow with curiosity yet, she behaved well like an obedient student.
"Boss Xu, do you have a new task for me?"
Edward’s voice pulled Calix’s attention away from Leslie. He coughed once, thinking back on his promise to her just now. He needed to make the first move now.
"I want you to find someone for me," declared Calix clearly, "Do it discreetly. This is unrelated to the company."
Edward was not the only one who was intrigued by Calix’s words. Leslie abruptly shifted her focus to the two men. Her eyes slightly widened, silently expressing her anticipation.
Well, Leslie didn’t expect to hear Calix instructing Edward about finding Calliope this soon.
