Chapter 1315 Make An Exception

Upon hearing his words, Cecilia couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt. "I've been too busy lately."

She pulled out a chair and said, "Please, sit down. Are you feeling any better?"

Calvin walked over, his gaze inadvertently fell on Cecilia's belly. "Much better now."

His gaze shifted upward, landing on Cecilia's face. The sight of that scar left a bitter taste in his heart.

Standing to the side, Madeline realized that the two individuals actually knew each other.

"Ms. Smith, do you two know each other? In that case, I'll excuse myself first."

In the presence of her colleagues and outsiders, Madeline always addressed Cecilia that way.

"All right." Cecilia nodded.

After Madeline left, Cecilia sat down and chatted with Calvin.

She found out that his health had almost fully recovered, and he was sent over to develop his family business.

"That's wonderful. We can see each other often from now on."

Calvin gave a slight nod. "How have you been lately?"

"It's still the same. I'm doing pretty well."

"That's good, then."

After some thought, Cecilia decided to say, "I've decided to start over with Nathaniel."

Calvin's gaze tightened, and he picked up a glass of water, concealing the unusual look in his eyes. "Are you sure?" "Yes." Cecilia nodded heavily.

Calvin took a sip from his glass. The water was supposed to be bland and tasteless, yet it tasted particularly bitter.

"As long as you're sure, that's all that matters. No matter what, I'm on your side."

"Thank you."

After expressing her gratitude, Cecilia asked, "Shall we discuss our collaboration?"

She knew clearly that Calvin's arrival at this moment was to bring business her way, and she was absolutely determined not to let Calvin suffer any disadvantages. "All right."

The two individuals were in the office, discussing a collaboration.

Outside, early in the morning, Eric had already arrived to prepare for the upcoming filming and promotional activities.

He arrived at Cecilia's office only to find it empty. He couldn't help but ask Madeline, "Where is Ms. Cecille?"

"Ms. Smith is discussing work."

"How long will it take?" asked Eric.

Madeline wasn't sure either, so she shook her head and said, "I'm not sure. The client visiting this time is a friend of Ms. Smith, so the meeting might take a while. Do you need something? I can let her know when she's done."

"No need. It's not something important. I just came to see her," Eric said before heading off to his filming site. Madeline watched his retreating figure, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Seeing Charlotte approach, Madeline couldn't help but ask, "What's the relationship between Eric and Ceci?" Charlotte looked puzzled. "They're just friends. What's the matter?"

"Why do I not think that's not the case?"

"What do you mean?"

Charlotte was rather oblivious, failing to notice the difference in Eric's behavior toward Cecilia.

Madeline shared with her what had just transpired and asked, "Well, why would Eric come here just to see Ceci?" Upon hearing those words, Charlotte also realized that Eric's attitude toward Cecilia was somewhat out of the ordinary.

After all, he declined all the

countless big corporations that

Wangato sign him on. Surprisingly,

he was willing to sign a lifetime contract with Cecilia.

"This isn't something we know enough to discuss. After all, Boss Is not only attractive but also

competent. Any man would see her

in

a different light."

With that, Charlotte turned to look at Madeline's beautiful face. "Did he ever make an exception for you?"

Madeline shook her head.

"That's odd, then."

In truth, Madeline's beauty was in no way inferior to Cecilia's.

While the two were sharing hushed words, Lucille also leaned in to join them.

Lucille was also intrigued. "Now that you mention it, I'm also inclined to think that Eric might have feelings for Ceci."

"All right. Enough chit-chat. It's time to work," Charlotte said, worried that saying too much might not be beneficial.

Lucille was left feeling somewhat unsatisfied. As she sat in her seat, she couldn't help but discuss the happenings of the place with Mason.
