Chapter 35 Handling Affairs_1
Upon hearing this, Glades Horne laughed, quite impolitely. After his laughter subsided, he said, "Granny is getting more and more like a greedy little cat as she ages.

She even wanted Julia to be privy to this greatest secret.

"Drive carefully, I’ll wait for you," he said, then added, "Hang up. Don’t talk too long on the phone while driving; it’s not safe." Having said this, Glades Horne hung up first, not wanting Julia Bluen to continue speaking.
The streets were packed with cars. Using a phone while driving could easily lead to an accident if one wasn’t careful. He would rather have a proper chat with her later than talk while she was driving.

One of Glades Horne’s secretaries, Layla Perez, gently pushed open the door to the office, taking two steps in before stopping. She respectfully said to Glades Horne, "CEO, Mr. Jonathan Allen is here. Would you like to see him?"
Glades Horne acknowledged with an "Mm," then stood up, walked around the sofa, and headed outside.
The secretary was a bit surprised but quickly turned and followed him. She assumed he was going to meet the visitor in the VIP Room.
Little did she know.
