Chapter 245 Attendance at the conference
There were all kinds of eyes around her, curious, gloating, sarcastic, contemptuous,
indifferent, all looking at her.
All the gazes were like arrows, leaving Niki in a daze.
Joey stood next to her with an awkward expression on his face.
After all, he used to be a popular one around Niki in the company, and he spent all day
around her.
At that time, Niki was in her best times, and the boss doted on her very much, so she,
along with him, was also “superior”.
Many people in the company envied him for being able to be around Niki, and he was
considered as having good days for a while.
But now Niki has lost Julian’s favor, and even when she came to the company, Julian. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
didn’t even want to look at her…
Niki was looked down upon by others, and he would also be looked down upon by others. The two of them have already become grasshoppers on the same ship, both.
prosperous and damaged.
The people around were looking at Niki, but Joey felt as if they were also looking at
himself.
“Julian…” Julian didn’t answer, so Niki continued to knock on the door with a stiff face.
Anyway, she couldn’t just walk around like this.
Otherwise, wouldn’t it look like that she’s abandoned by Julian? Did she have to be laughed at by these employees?
She, Niki, absolutely did not allow this kind of thing to happen.
She’s the future Mrs. Graham!
Not only that, but she also wanted to become the owner of this company. How could
she be looked down upon by these employees in advance?
Niki thought this way, knocking harder on the door.
But there was no movement inside the door.
She stubbornly knocked a few more times, but there was still no response. The further
she knocked, the colder and more disappointed she became…
No, she couldn’t accept it.
Since Julian was unwilling to open the door, there should always be another way!
Niki turned to look at Joey and wanted to seek his help.
Joey caught a glimpse of Niki. He quickly dodged and looked down at his unfinished.
work, pretending not to see her.
He didn’t want to get involved between Niki and Mr. Graham.
But his movements were a bit slow.
Niki had already seen his disguised actions.
Niki sneered. At this moment, was he too anxious to ignore her? How ungrateful!
Even if she died, she still needed to get someone to the hell with her.
Niki raised her eyebrows and deliberately shouted loudly, “Joey, can you help me?”
Joey still pretended not to hear her. He lowered his head, with his eyes fixed on the folder, his hands constantly flipping, as if busy.
“Joey…? Joey, do you hear me?” Niki deliberately shouted louder.,
All the eyes around now gathered on Joey… The awkward atmosphere suddenly shifted to Joey.
Now he couldn’t pretend not to hear her.
Joey twitched the corners of his mouth a few times and stiffly adjusted his expression, “Oh…”
He pointed at himself blankly, “Miss Linch, were you calling me?”
Niki smiled when she saw Joey’s pretentious expression, but her smile was fake.
“What do you think? Of course I was calling you.”
She waved at the man, gesturing for him to come over.
Joey looked over. Although the woman wore a smile, there was a malicious intent hidden in the deepest part of her eyes.
Her fake smile made her look like a tiger. It seemed like the next second she would come
over and tear him into pieces.
Joey immediately shrank his neck and felt a chill in his heart. He walked towards Niki.
Watching the man walking towards her, Niki then withdrew her gaze.
She made room for Joey.
Before Niki could speak, Joey knowingly knocked on the door of the CEO’s office.
“President Graham… I have a document for you to sign.” Joey kept his tone as calm as
possible.
After all, if Mr. Graham found out that he was deliberately making excuses for Niki to
open the door, he would definitely be unable to bear the consequences.
After about half a minute, there was still no movement inside.
Just when Niki thought that Julian wouldn’t open the door, a cold voice from inside.
“Come in.”
Joey quickly grabbed a stack of documents and opened the door. He glanced inside at
the boss’s face, then turned around and gave Niki a look.
Niki also pushed the door and entered.
Julian was sitting in a chair, with a pair of golden glasses on his tall nose, and he looked
so elegant, not as cold as before.
“Sir… this is the document that requires your signature.”
Joey placed the document on the table and pushed it in front of the man.
“Okay… put it there.” Julian didn’t lift his head and focused on his work.
After a long time, he seemed a bit tired, so he raised his head slightly and moved his
neck.
Then he extended his hand with distinct joints and removed the glasses from his nose,
revealing a pair of narrow and beautiful black eyes.
In his remaining sight, he caught a glimpse of a figure in front of the table.
Julian instinctively furrowed his brow and said, “Why haven’t you left yet?” He thought Joey put down the documents, but he was still in the office.
Niki spoke with grievances coquettishly, “Julian…”
The man’s face suddenly changed.
Without saying a word, he picked up the phone next to him and dialed Joey’s phone,
“Take her away.”
“Don’t, don’t…” Niki quickly stopped him, “Julian… don’t be so cruel to me.”
Julian remained unmoved.
The next second, Niki reached out directly, took out two invitation cards from her bag,
and threw them on the table.
Julian’s movements in his hands suddenly stopped.
The air also seemed to be stationary for an instant.
“Is this the invitation?!”, the man’s tone was shocked.
A few days later, in Chicago.
The medical conference was located in the most central area of Chicago, adjacent to the city government to the east and the moat to the west, surrounded by commercial area.
The venue for the event was naturally noble and luxurious.
At the conference, Natalie was wearing a low-key black evening dress with silk on the
Get Boys
hem and dark floral embellishments on the fabric, which, although low-key, looked
luxurious and decent.
On her shoulder, there was a white shawl, and there was a pearl necklace on her slender
neck, which made her very noble.
Surrounded by well-dressed people, the guests came and went, making it very lively.
Natalie, holding a glass in her hand, stood alone in the outfield.
She stood there with no one around, out of place with the bustling scene next to her.
Moreover, she specially wore a black dress today, making herself even more low-key. As
she stood in the corner, almost no one could notice her.
Natalie felt at ease.
Because she didn’t want to come, just because she couldn’t resist her uncle’s orders… she had to come to this banquet.
Staying in the laboratory all day and devoting herself to studies in a quiet laboratory has made her a quiet person.
Moreover, during her three years at the Graham family, as Mrs. Graham, she had to attend many banquets every month and wore masks all day to meet various people.
She has long been tired of this atmosphere.
