GoodReadChapter 239 “Mr. Sunderland, welcome to our company. Sorry for not receiving
you downstairs. Please, come in.”
Mr. Roberts grinned as he walked over. He appeared respectful and humble.
When Trent saw the group of people that suddenly surrounded him, he was a little dumbfounded
He was the general manager of Sunderland Corporation. This building belonged to Sunderland Corpor
ation, and there was also a floor devoted to his
office. Therefore, he thought the people around him were also staff members of LaStar Technology Cor
poration.
He dared not offend the staff members under Adina either.
So, he nodded politely. “Has she reached the office?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen he threw them the question, Mr. Roberts was taken aback.
She?
Who
was she? Who was he referring to? Was Mr. Sunderland asking if the distant relative of the staff‘s cousi
n was there?
Mr. Roberts kept signaling at his secretary.
His secretary took the hint, so he turned around and went back to the office. He got ready to ask the st
aff to summon the girl over immediately.
At that moment, the elevator doors opened on their floor.
Adina walked into the corridor in a pair of high heels.
When she showed up, the secretary was shocked.
Trent was famous for being a playboy. He would have a new girlfriend every five days, and all his girlfri
ends were extremely beautiful. Ms. Daugherty from the company next door was the most beautiful wom
an in Sea City! If Mr. Sunderland saw Ms. Daugherty, their business would definitely be stolen!
When Mr. Roberts‘ secretary thought about that, he immediately walked toward Adina. “Ms. Daugherty,
can you please walk through the other side? A very important guest is visiting our company.” Adina had
dealt with Mr. Roberts before. He was quite bright and cheerful. On top of that, he was very easy to get
along with.
She nodded indifferently. “Sure.” Therefore, she decided to enter
her company the other way. Just as she turned around, she heard some footsteps behind her.
Trent immediately rushed over. “Ms. Daugherty, you left right after you saw me. Are you still angry at w
hat happened yesterday?” Adina slowly turned around and saw Trent‘s face. She squinted.
Trent felt a cold shiver down his spine when Adina stared at him. He

thing. Look at my face. I‘ve been punched. There‘s also a huge bruise on my leg. I‘ve been terribly
beaten up. Please forgive me.” When the secretary heard the way Trent talked to Adina, he widened hi
s eyes. Was the noble Mr. Sunderland asking Adina for forgiveness? What was going on? Did Mr. Sund
erland not come here for Mr. Roberts?
Mr. Roberts was just as stunned!
Mr. Sunderland had been wandering outside their company for so long, but he was not there
for him? It looked like Mr. Sunderland was really close with Ms. Daugherty?
Mr. Roberts slowly moved closer. He wanted to see if he could take the opportunity to say a few words
… However, before Mr. Roberts could reach them! Bang! A loud thud was heard. “Argh!”
Then,
a scream of misery rang out. Trent, who was 1.8 meters tall, was thrown to the ground with great force,
stirring up dust. Everyone in the corridor was shocked. Adina patted her hands and coldly said, “Don‘t
mess with me again.” After she spoke, she pushed open the glass door and entered her company.
