Perhaps he couldn’t subdue this guy and gave up, deciding that even being friends was fine. Elijah Wilson didn’t know that this decision would be the best one he ever made in his life. If Dylan Harding knew that Elijah Wilson wanted to subdue Kisia Primus, his jaw would definitely drop. Even as the current heir of the Harding family, his status was not inferior to Elijah Wilson. He even had to obediently address Robin as his master. They were not yet qualified to be Robin’s friends.
“Summon Marie,” Elijah Wilson gave an order.
Soon, Marie, who was still lingering in the office, received the message. She became even more anxious, but she encouraged herself in her mind, “It must be because of my previous actions, blocking this person. The CEO wants to promote me, give me a raise, or even invite me to dinner.”
She felt a little happy about it.
In her opinion, how could that boy who couldn’t afford branded clothes have any influence on the CEO? He probably somehow got the CEO’s phone number and fooled him, and now he was calling her over to explain.
Thinking like this, she arrived on the top floor.
The office where Elijah Wilson was located.
“CEO, is your leg better?” Marie walked over and immediately saw Elijah Wilson standing by the window, standing up with his straight long legs. She couldn’t help but cover her mouth, astonished.
It was fine.
“Mmm,” Elijah Wilson nodded.
Marie thought about earlier when she saw the doctor who always accompanied Elijah Wilson leave the office. She instantly understood that the doctor had always been by Elijah Wilson’s side and would not leave unless he had cured Elijah Wilson. So he left.
The task was completed.
Thinking of this, a blush crept up on her face. Originally, she liked Elijah Wilson, mostly because of his status and background, which would allow her to live the life of a noblewoman. But now his leg was healed, and he was not disabled anymore.
And the moment his leg healed, he called her over.
What did it mean?
What did it mean?
Elijah Wilson liked her. His leg was healed, and he wanted to tell her right away. Then they could be together, living a romantic life. The life of a noblewoman she had always dreamed of was about to come true.
“You…” Elijah Wilson was about to say something.
“I accept,” Marie lowered her head, clutching her clothes, feeling a little shy.
Elijah Wilson frowned. She was so happy to be fired. Did she not want to work in the company anymore?
“Fine, then go fill out your resignation form. From today onwards, you are no longer part of our company,” Elijah Wilson said and turned away.
“Fine, let’s go to the hotel… What? Resignation form!”
At that moment, it was like a beautiful dream being abruptly shattered. Marie suddenly froze, “What resignation form? Why should I resign?”
“It’s not resignation, I fired you.”
“Why?”
“No reason.”
Elijah Wilson’s gaze turned cold. She had offended his benefactor and still wanted to stay in his company. How audacious of her.
As for explanations, what kind of person was he, Elijah Wilson, that he needed to explain himself to her?
“No, I won’t resign. I won’t.”
Marie shook her head frantically. How could this happen? Wasn’t he here to take her on their honeymoon? Wasn’t she going to live the life of a noblewoman? How could she be fired?
It was completely different from what she had imagined.
“Why don’t you throw her out,” Elijah Wilson said, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes. He didn’t like this kind of crazy woman. In his world, only power fascinated him. Women were dispensable.
“Yes.”
There were several security guards near the office.
They quickly grabbed Marie, dragging her outside.
“No… CEO… What did I do wrong… Why are you firing me…”
“No… What did I do…”
“CEO… No…”
Marie cried out desperately, but Elijah Wilson seemed to not hear her at all.
He didn’t care about such a small character.
Especially a small character who offended Robin.
…
Outside Dahlia Tower.
Several vans were parked about a hundred meters away, including an Aston Martin. Joe Braton, Tiger, and others were waiting while smoking.
Tiger exhaled a mouthful of smoke and said, “Mr. Braton, why did that guy go into Dahlia Tower? Could he be one of their people? I can’t afford to provoke anyone from Dahlia Tower.”
He felt a little uneasy.
After all, Dahlia Tower held a special position in the entire North Coast.
“What’s there to be afraid of? That guy is just a poor boy. Rest assured, if he were from Dahlia Tower, would he take the bus? He’s probably there to apply for a job, maybeas a janitor or restroom attendant at Dahlia Tower. But even for a janitor at Dahlia Tower, a bachelor’s degree is required. With that poor boy, he wouldn’t be able to get the job,” Joe Braton sneered from the other side. He couldn’t stand the cheap cigarettes these hooligans were smoking, so he stood beside his Aston Martin.
“Don’t worry, I have a good eye for judging people. I say he’s just a poor boy, so he must be. A poor boy who dares to offend me, Joe Braton, is seeking death,” Joe Braton sneered.
Just then, the butler pointed to the entrance of Dahlia Tower and said, “Young master, they’re coming out.”
Joe Braton looked towards the entrance, and it was indeed Robin coming out. There was another person with him, dressed in a black suit.
“Why is there another person?” Tiger was puzzled and asked.
“Probably his companion. Both of them came to apply, but they failed. Dahlia Tower is not so easy to get into,” Joe Braton waved his hand dismissively. “Let’s go.”
The other person was Abner Wilson.
As Elijah Wilson’s personal bodyguard, he rarely left Elijah Wilson’s side. Elijah Wilson seldom appeared in public, and those who knew him were a series of important figures, which certainly didn’t include Joe Braton. So Joe Braton didn’t recognize Abner Wilson.
Abner Wilson was sent by Elijah Wilson to see Robin. He was very grateful to Robin for healing Elijah Wilson’s leg, so he respected Robin greatly.
“Sir, I…” Abner Wilson was about to ask whether he should drive them here or take Robin back.
But at that moment, a group of people appeared in front of them, a bunch of characters who looked like thugs. Leading them was Joe Braton, who looked down on Abner Wilson and scolded, “We’re going to teach this guy a lesson. A fool who doesn’t know better, get lost!”
He was scolding Abner Wilson.
“Sir, I apologize,” Abner Wilson apologized to Robin. Encountering such a situation at the company’s doorstep, he then turned to look at those people, his eyes filled with killing intent.
They insulted him, a small person.
But insulting a distinguished guest of the Wilson family was a serious matter!
