Chapter 44 Call Him By His Name
"Wait!" Since Nina was leaving, John didn't want to go on pretending to be in pain anymore.
He stood up and straightened his slightly wrinkled clothes. Without asking for her permission, he simply said, "I'll drive you to school."
"What did you say?" Nina asked, flabbergasted. What did she hear just now?
"Are you seriously sending me to school?" she asked again when he didn't reply, and felt that something was out of line.
Was he scheming to play tricks on her again?
"Is there anything wrong?" John probed. Why would she not believe it? Did he look like a bad guy who was out to hurt her?
Besides, why would it be strange for him to send her to school?
He didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Nina had already become his woman. Of course, there was no issue to send her by himself.
"No, but don't you need to go to work today?" Nina raised her hand in protest and indicated him to look at his own watch. It was already eight o'clock in the morning.
There was still plenty of time before her class began, so she would not be late. But for John, that was not the case. If he went straight to work now, he could still arrive at the company on time. However, if he insisted on bringing Nina to school, he would definitely be late for work.
"No, I don't," he argued. Could the company not operate normally by itself if he didn't arrive at work on time? If not, then why did he have to spend so much money on employing so many people?
For the time being, sending Nina to school was the most important agenda for the day.
Nina blinked incredibly. With such an uncaring boss, the company would definitely go bankrup
a first for John not to go to work on time. Everyone in the company began to feel nervously agitated and uneasy because it was out of the ordinary. Through their WeChat group messaging, they asked Henry for the reason why he was late.
As a result, Henry's phone kept vibrating throughout the whole morning. Since he was following John around, he was made to suffer a lot.
"I can hear you've got plenty of messages, remember to reply one by one," John casually said and turned around. This was another precedent because it was quite unusual of him.
Henry was speechless for a moment. After confirming for several times that John wasn't blaming him, he replied apprehensively, "Yes, I'll reply to them right away."
"Okay, do that," John told him as he pushed the door open and entered the office unhurriedly.
Henry had to gasp for breath after John went inside. He had not expected John to let him go that easily and he did not even scold him just now.
He quickly replied to the WeChat group message. "Mr. Shi is in a very good mood today. Those who need him to sign the documents, please come up quickly before his mood changes."
In a flash, there were more than ninety-nine messages that popped out in the WeChat group. Someone even asked Henry out of curiosity why John didn't come to work on time this morning, and Henry didn't bother to give any reply.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Henry sent another message in the WeChat group that surprised the employees even more.
"Mr. Shi has left and got off work earlier than usual."
By then, Henry really felt that John would become a fatuous and witless CEO sooner or later.
