Chapter 51: Payment of labor 30,000 times
– This ends here-
Adam’s indifferent words surprised Olivia.
If the person who made the mistake today was someone else, she did not believe that Adam would end this matter so easily, compensation or dismissal, he would always deal with it, today Adam’s euphemistic attitude was obviously abnormal.
– But what about the loss of more than $40 million? The financial side has already reported it … This is not a small project. If the board of directors asks …
Adam said calmly, “I will complete the missing $45 million.
Did it really make up for the $45 million for Estrella?
Olivia’s face was pale, she took a deep breath, bit her lip and said, – Adam, even if she loses 300 million, aren’t you willing to let Estrella leave Grupo Rouco? She has promised to resign as long as you agree, there’s no need for you to pay the three hundred million for her.
Where is the Star woman worth forty-five million dollars? Even a fraction of this amount is not worth it!
Adam’s dark eyes were slightly dazed. He closed the laptop, raised his hand and caressed the cufflinks carelessly, – Estrella is Mrs. Rouco, if she is expelled from Grupo Rouco, I will be ashamed. Spend 300 million to avoid it. Any questions?
– But no one in the outside world knows that she is Rouco’s wife, you don’t have to do this…-.
Adam stood gracefully, moving slowly. When he looked at her, his eyes were lazy, but a sigh of embarrassment hovered, -principal Olivia, if you want to make things worse, I’m afraid you’ll embarrass yourself-.
Olivia’s heart was surprised.
Adam’s tone was light and gentle, but fierce and cold.
She had already spoken on this point, and Olivia should understand even if she was stupid. She swallowed her tight, dry throat, forced her face up, pursed her lips and said, -I’ll go to Dante’s school first. Don’t be late-
As the words tumbled out, she stomped on her high heels and hurried out of the office.
Adam called on the inside line of the desk, -Let Estrella come to my office- -Let Estrella come to my office-.
…
As Estrella walked to the office door, she took a few deep breaths before knocking on the door and entering.
Although she was mentally prepared to be scolded by Adam, she was still frightened when he walked in. She stood at the safest distance from Adam, face down, eyebrows lowered and a complacent look in the man’s eyes. Like a student who had done something wrong and is afraid of being punished.
– Ven-
Did the man look at her with dark eyes, standing so far away from him, so afraid of him?
It was not a monster, if it was it would have swallowed her in the abdomen long ago without leaving any bones behind.
Estrella advanced a few steps, still defensively backing away from him. Adam reached up and pinched his brow bone, exhaling deeply with impatience. Estrella heard a faint sigh of impatience. Thinking he was going to be mad again, when he raised his eyes, the man had come up to her with long legs and grabbed her wrist.
The man stared at the striking red scratch on his thin white arm, the scar was oozing yellow water and was a little red and swollen, he had broken it with a folder a few hours ago.
The man took the thin calloused fingertips and gently stroked the wound, “Does it hurt?
She frowned and nodded her head, -Yes, a little-.
She thought Adam was so compassionate that he would pity her. Who knew, the man looked at her coldly, -Pain is the best, let yourself be reminded-.
He licked his lips, -It doesn’t matter if I remember or not. I’ve already written my letter of resignation and I plan to resign-.
The large hand that touched her wound suddenly exerted force, pinching her numb wound, and she almost burst into tears of pain, -It hurts, it hurts …. lighten up!
– Do you know it hurts? Wait here obediently-
He saw Adam enter a room in the office and quickly grabbed the first aid kit.
The two of them sat on the side of the couch, Adam took her arm and used a cotton swab to clean and disinfect her with iodine.
When the atmosphere was calm, Estrella could not help but ask, “This time Grupo Rouco has lost 300 million, will the impact be great?
The man just lowered his head and concentrated on helping her with the medicine, his tone was inattentive, making people unable to hear the seriousness, -Well, yes, three hundred million is not a small amount of money- -Well, yes, three hundred million is not a small amount of money-.
…
But from his mouth, why was it so strange, his calm tone seemed only to have lost three hundred, where was the panic of losing three hundred million?
Star asked tentatively, – So … what should she do?
He was so afraid of having to bear this huge debt after having resigned, and even more afraid that Adam would not be happy and let him take Villa Berrocal as a mortgage.
– Three hundred million, how do you plan to pay it back?
The man tended to the wound on his arm, his black eyes lifted to meet her clear eyes.
– What …? I have already written my letter of resignation. Do I still have to pay back the three hundred million?
Adam took her by the arm and pulled her arms, his breath was closer to her, the breath intertwined, and his burning eyes looked at her for an instant, -Do you want so much to be fired like this?
She lowered her eyes slightly, “This is not the result you and Director Olivia want?This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
But the man turned a deaf ear and said quietly, “Did you deliberately write the wrong amount just to let me fire you?
– No…
She was really aggrieved, obviously Olivia wanted to frame her!
– You can stay in Grupo Rouco, and I didn’t need to hold you responsible, but that didn’t mean you didn’t have to pay the three hundred million losses.
…
Estrella almost vomited blood, was this also called to not hold me accountable?
– I, I don’t have that kind of money-
Adam’s large hands wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her tightly. Star was surprised, her face flushed. She hadn’t realized what Adam was about to do. She only heard the man’s low, magnetic voice ringing over her head, -I don’t care if you pay for it in labor- -I don’t care.
Pay, pay for labor?
Estrella was embarrassed, did she stay with Grupo Rouco to continue working for him?
The man suddenly overwhelmed her on the couch, with a slender arm resting against her red little face, his eyes were deep and lovely, just listening to the man’s ambiguous and low tone in her ears- If it works out to be 10, 000 at a time, then you must hit 30, 000 times-
Estrella’s eyes suddenly widened, her little face flushed and blood was about to drip, what was this man thinking?
They looked at each other, Adam stared at her nervous little face, laughed in a very good mood, pinched her beautiful little chin with long fingers, looked at her clean, flushed face, joking- Of course, I might also get tired of making love to you before 30. 000 times-.
This man was simply a kisser!
