In this world, only Madeleine would ask her what Steve did when she saw her being wronged, instead of asking her to accommodate Steve.
Ruby felt a sourness in her nose. She lowered her eyelids slightly, and after a while, she took a deep breath, calming her emotions before raising her head and smiling at Madeleine. She still avoided Madeleine’s question just now: “Madeleine, did you bring me any gifts from abroad?”
A good best friend is someone who accompanies you when you’re upset, not someone who investigates why you’re upset.
So, when Madeleine could tell that Ruby really didn’t want to talk about Steve, she didn’t force her. Instead, she went along with Ruby’s words and took out the gift she had brought for her.
On the ninth day, Madeleine had a busy day at work, so after talking to Steve alone in the morning, she forgot to tell him about her visit to Ruby the day before.
As a result, in the afternoon, Steve called Madeleine to his office several times.
When Madeleine was called into Steve’s office for the fifth time, Howard finally realized that something was wrong and asked, “What’s with our boss today? He keeps calling Madeleine to his office.”
“Madeleine, did we talk about anything particular?”
Madeleine was also puzzled: “No, he just asked a bunch of irrelevant questions.”
“Madeleine, did you do something wrong?” Edward asked.
Madeleine was startled by this question, and after thinking about it, it seemed that something was indeed amiss. Then, she asked, “I just came back to the country yesterday, how could I have made any mistakes?”
Howard looked helpless: “You’ll have to think about that yourself.”
Edward also looked unconcerned and aloof.
“You two traitors!” Madeleine angrily cursed, then looked expectantly at Rusell, who had been sitting quietly working on a report and hadn’t said a word.
Only then did Rusell slowly move his head away from the computer, staring at
Madeleine and pointing out: “Our boss’s behavior is clearly sulking again.”
“Rusell means, it’s not that Madeleine made a mistake, but that our boss wants to ask her something and is too embarrassed to ask,” Edward continued analyzing.
Howard bluntly asked: “Madeleine, what does our boss want to find out from you?”
Madeleine was still baffled.
Rusell looked at the three of them with a headache, feeling a bit anxious for their IQ: “Our boss has always been sulking towards only one person.”
When Rusell said this, Madeleine suddenly understood.. She secretly slapped the table and said, “How could I have forgotten about that!”
