Pearce received a gift from the owner of the gold shop and planned to use it to thank Eleanor and show off in front of everyone.
However, he didn’t expect to meet Mr. Laurence here, what bad luck!
The smile on Pearce’s face suddenly froze: “Dude, this ain’t cool!”
How are we supposed to have fun and celebrate with such a serious guy at the party?
The designers behind Pearce saw the chilling man and their smiles also froze halfway.
They didn’t even dare to enter, standing at the door, shoving each other: “You go first…”
“No, no, no, you guys go
first…”
Eleanor glanced at the hesitant designers and then at Bernard.
She swallowed and whispered, “How about you go out first, and I’ll join you at the hospital after I deal with them?”
Bernard loosened his tight grip and gently touched her hair, “I’ll go to the hospital tomorrow, I’ll be with you tonight.”
He didn’t give anyone a chance to refuse, then lifted his indifferent eyes and coldly stared at the people at the door: “Come in.”
With just those two words, the designers shuddered, not wanting to go in, but their feet involuntarily moved forward.
They sat far away from Bernard, not daring to get close, but Pearce mustered up the courage and approached Bernard.
“Mr. Laurence, your presence at our celebration really adds glory to our company, I’m truly honored…”
He forced a smile, thinking: I don’t feel any glory or honor, just leave already!
Bernard’s starry eyes seemed to have the power to penetrate people’s hearts, seeing right through Pearce’s thoughts.
He patted the sofa next to him, “Pearce, sit down and let’s chat?”
Seeing Bernard’s cold, gloomy eyes staring at him, Pearce felt a chill down his spine.
“Mr. Laurence, I’ll ask the manager to bring something over, you can chat with my boss. Goodbye!” novelbin
He turned to leave but ran into Aidyn, who had just arrived. After a moment of eye contact, Pearce was pushed back in.
“Go have a nice chat with our president…”
Pearce couldn’t resist Aidyn’s force and was dragged to sit down next to Bernard.
He held the gold bracelet and gold slippers in his hand, and couldn’t help but tremble a bit.
He slowly turned his head and looked at the frosty man next to him.
“Uh… Mr. Laurence, we don’t really have anything to talk about, do we?”
Bernard’s cold gaze shifted to his hand, “Who gave you this?”
Pearce lifted his chin, pointing at Eleanor, “My boss gave it to me!”
Bernard raised an eyebrow, his eyes with deep meaning looked at Eleanor.
I’ve never received a gift from you, yet you gave one to another man!
Eleanor seemed to understand his thoughts and tried to explain.
However, Pearce was busy showing off the gold as if he was making an offering, displaying it right in front of Bernard.
“Mr. Laurence, look at this gift my boss gave me. Do you think it looks good and is it high quality?”
Bernard’s fingers on his lap gently rubbed together, then he snapped his fingers.
Aidyn outside the door immediately came in with a group of bodyguards, “Mr. Laurence, what can I do for you?”
Bernard lifted his chin and coldly ordered, “Call a waiter over to keep Mr. Hooper company.”
