Chapter 56
Caroline was embarrassed by that remark.
What does this bastard mean?
How dare you mock her!
Upon hearing the noise outside the corridor, Caroline quickly put her phone back in its original position and stood to the side.
Jaxson and Cynthia walked into the office.
The former glanced up, furrowing his brows slightly, “Have you been discharged?”
“Yes, the doctor said I’m fine, just need to rest for a few days.” Caroline walked towards him, seeing him sitting in the office chair, picking up his phone, she immediately changed the subject, “It’s been a while since we last saw you, Jaxson. Let’s have lunch together with Collin at noon?”
He did not open the call log, just glanced at the work group chat within the company, and nodded, “Okay.”
Caroline was overjoyed.
On
the other side, Charlotte hung up the phone and soon after went to the restaurant to meet Reynald.
Seeing Reynald waiting at the location early, she quickened her pace to reach the spot. “Sorry for keeping you waiting for so long, right?”
“Just wait a few more minutes, it’s no big deal,” Reynald set down his tea cup and sent the recovered surveillance footage to her phone. “Luckily, the person who deleted this footage wasn’t a professional, otherwise, it would have taken much longer to recover!”
Charlotte looked at the complete surveillance footage on her phone and then looked up, saying, “Thank you.”
By the way, how much did you pay for your coat? I’ll reimburse you the full price.”
After all, she felt quite embarrassed since her coat, which had been borrowed by Jaxson, was lost like that.
Reynald seemed to have guessed something early, with a slight raise of his eyebrows, “You don’t need to compensate, just a piece of clothing. I originally thought you wouldn’t make this call, being able to help you, I also fulfilled James’s instructions.”
