Chapter 34 Emelia Picked Up by Viggo
Julian did not expect that Emelia had suffered a car accident, and for a moment he felt that his words just now were mean.
After a few moments of thought he called Emelia again to say he was sorry and to ask if she was hurt, but the call never went through and it was clear that she was deliberately not answering. Julian then called David Brennan on the intercom and instructed, "Send a driver to pick up a person from the suburban hospital."
"Okay." David answered and asked, "Who is it?"
Julian spat out with some difficulty, "Emelia."
David was surprised, but took this task and prepared to leave.
Julian stopped him and said, "Forget it, you go over and pick her up."
David was his confidant and calm, and he could trust David.
David had also been with Julian for many years, so he understood his mind and proposed, "Sir, why don't you go there yourself?" Julian refused, "No, you go."
He was now in such bad terms with Emelia, and his going there would probably worsen the relationship between them instead.
David then went to pick up Emelia, and about forty minutes later, David's call came through.
David said with some embarrassment on the phone, "Sir, Miss Jones refused to take my car. Instead, Mr. Johansen came over and took Miss Jones away." Julian gritted his teeth and asked, "Viggo went over there himself?"
He knew that Viggo had fancy on Emelia. If he just treated Emelia as an ordinary employee, why would he the boss personally visit her when she had an accident? David replied, "Yes, Mr. Johansen was already here when I arrived."
David added, "I asked Ms. Jones and she was not injured, but it seems that only her arm was scraped."
"Also, I passed on your apologies to her, and she, she did give you a few words."
Julian asked in a strained voice, "What?"
David answered truthfully, "She said it didn't matter, you always like to find fault with her for no reason, and whatever she does is always wrong in your eyes."
David thought about Emelia's expression and tone when she said these words, and he, an outsider, could deeply feel how much his boss had gone overboard with Emelia in the past.
Julian squeezed his phone for a moment before saying, "Come back."
David reported again, "Boss, Ms. Jones came to the suburbs because of her mother's death anniversary."
"The anniversary of her mother's death is today, and in order not to delay today's meeting, she came to the suburbs yesterday afternoon, and after visiting her mother's tomb early this morning, she took the early bus back, but it didn't expect to have a car accident on the way."
After listening to David's report, Julian did not know what kind of feeling he had in his heart.
The anniversary of her mother's death?
He knew that her mother had died many years ago, but never knew that she was buried in the suburbs or which day her mother's death anniversary was.
She never mentioned it, or she did but he never took it to heart.
Also, she went to the suburbs yesterday so she wouldn't miss the meeting, but he still blamed she was treating the workplace like a vegetable market, while she clearly valued the meeting.
Emelia was currently sitting in Viggo's car returning to the city, her eyes slightly red.
She was not hurt by Julian's previous words, she was angry.
She was angry at why Julian was still making things difficult for her after she and Julian were divorced, but then she thought, although she and Julian were divorced, Julian was now considered her half-boss at work.
In this circle, the investor was the boss, the God.
So it was only natural that he questioned her about her absence from the meeting, which was the cruelty of the workplace.-------------
