Chapter 28
Only then did they realize that Tom was not here.
"Tut, where else can he go? He must be hiding."
"That's right. Tom is such a gigolo. Now that his wife is going to accompany Mr. Cook, can you expect
him to come out and stop her?"
"I get angry when I think about what happened last time. This guy just can't do anything right. He spent
his whole life's luck saving Samuel's life, but he didn't get any benefits! He can't even take back the
birthday gifts that Samuel gave to our Scott Family. I've never seen such a stupid man before!"
"Exactly. If I were the one who saved Samuel, I would have had a meteoric rise and led the Scott
Family to create new glory!"
"Anyone with a normal intelligence to whom Samuel owes such a great deal would not mess things up
like Tom, let alone you!"
"Stop it, I'm so angry!"
Because of what happened last time, they all had a lot of resentment towards Tom. Now that the Scott
Family was in trouble, Tom, who had done such a big favor to Samuel, actually gained nothing from
this. Especially when they thought of how submissive they were in front of Tom, they became even
angrier. It was a lifelong humiliation for them!
They made up their minds that they must teach Tom a lesson when he came back.
As they were cursing happily, Phoebe scolded them with a cold face, "That's enough! If any of you still
mention the word Tom in front of me, I won't go to accompany Mr. Cook tonight!" Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
They were all frightened by Phoebe's serious look and fell silent.
Phoebe was in a bad mood mainly because of Tom. She was going to accompany Mr. Cook now. Tom
didn't even show up. He shrank. What a coward! He was not a man at all.
At this moment, Richard stood out and said, "Okay, let's not talk about those unimportant things.
Phoebe, I've fulfilled all your requirements. Now it's time for you to fulfill your promise."
Phoebe nodded expressionlessly and got into the car.
"Phoebe, it's really hard on you. It's all Tom's fault. He had the chance to save you, but he wasted it!
Alas..." Elizabeth held Phoebe's hand, sad and angry.
James said, "Phoebe, I think Brian has a deep affection for you. When you come back this time, why
don't you divorce Tom and marry Brian?"
Phoebe smiled sadly and said, "Dad, do you think Brian will marry me after I accompany Mr. Cook?"
"This..." James was speechless. He lowered his head and smoked crazily.
Twenty minutes later, when they arrived at the ZQ Building, Phoebe said, "Dad, mom, go back. I'll go
home myself in three days."
Elizabeth and James's eyes turned red as they watched Phoebe leave.
Phoebe walked into the ZQ Building alone. She felt extremely cold and had to exert great strength
every step she took.
Her appearance attracted the attention of a lot of people in the ZQ Building. It was just that she was too
beautiful, and she was wearing such a sexy sheath dress, which had an extremely strong visual
impact.
Many people guessed that she was a new employee who would be packaged as a superstar by the
company in the future.
A man immediately approached her to chat her up, but she ignored him with a cold face. She directly
walked to the front desk and said, "Hello, my name is Phoebe. I'm here to see Mr. Cook."
The receptionist asked, "Mr. Cook? Do you have an appointment?"
Phoebe bit her lip and said, "Just tell him my name."
The receptionist looked Phoebe over seriously, twitched her mouth, and then called Elliot. "Hello, Mr.
Cook, there's a woman named Phoebe here who wants to see you."
Elliot was smoking in the office. When he heard the phone call from the front desk, he trembled and
said excitedly, "Hurry up and invite her up!"
After thinking for a moment, he added, "Forget it. I'll go down and pick her up myself!"
After hanging up the phone, Elliot quickly put down his cigarette, ran to the bathroom to wash his
mouth and chewed gum, making sure that he did not have bad breath. Then he groomed himself and
went downstairs to receive Phoebe.
He was almost sure that Phoebe was the woman the new chairman liked. He had to serve her well.
Now that the new chairman had been in the office for a few hours, he must be waiting for him to send
Phoebe in.
When he got downstairs, he saw Phoebe at the front desk. His eyes lit up and he was amazed.
He had seen the photos of Phoebe and knew that she was a beautiful woman. Now it seemed that the
real person was much more beautiful than the photos, especially in this sheath dress, which made her
both sexy and elegant. What a stunner!
Unfortunately, he couldn't taste such a woman... Bah! As soon as this idea came to mind, he quickly
shook his head and threw it out. This dangerous idea could not exist. She was the woman that the new
chairman liked. If the new chairman knew that he had a crush on Phoebe, the new chairman would
definitely not spare him!
Elliot cleared up his mind and walked over with a smile that he thought was friendly.
Phoebe also saw Elliot. Her pupils immediately contracted, her heart beat faster, and her nerves
tightened.
Elliot was a fat man with a big belly. When he walked up, his whole body was trembling. Imagining
herself being pressed down by such a fat man, Phoebe felt her heart trembling and was overwhelmed
by sadness.
She was really unwilling to lose virginity to such a fat pig! If she had known, she would have lost it to
Tom! At least Tom was not bad looking and had a good figure...
Eh? Wait, why did she think so? Threw it out!
"Hello, hello. Are you Miss Scott?" Elliot walked up to Phoebe and smiled at her without looking
sideways.
Phoebe's mind was in a mess and she wanted to squeeze out a smile, but it was awkward and even
uglier than crying. She remembered what Richard had told her before she came. Enduring the
grievance and disgust, she took the initiative to reach out her hand. "Mr. Cook, hello, I'm Phoebe."
When Elliot looked at her so closely, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. She was so beautiful.
The man instinctively got excited and subconsciously reached out to shake Phoebe's hand. But
immediately, a light flashed in his mind. Thinking of Tom's dignified face, the evil thoughts in his mind
disappeared completely. He quickly withdrew his hand and said, "Miss Scott, you're beautiful. Let's go
upstairs and talk business!"
Just kidding. Now that he knew that Phoebe was Tom's dish, how could he dare to touch her? Besides,
this was ZQ, and there were cameras everywhere. If Tom saw it, he would be finished.
Phoebe was stunned. She didn't expect Elliot to retract his hand. What was going on? Was he not
satisfied with her?
With this question in mind, she was very worried. The Scott Family was in a very bad situation now.
She had to get the 20 million tonight.
When she got to the elevator, she couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Cook, are you unhappy to see me?"
Elliot was stunned. And then, seeing Phoebe in such a state of anxiety and panic, he understood that
Phoebe thought he was not satisfied with her.
"No, no, I'm happy to be with you..." When he said this, he realized that he had said something wrong
and quickly changed his words, "No, no, I didn't mean that, but..."
He was at a loss for words and didn't know how to explain it. He waved his hand and said, "You'll know
when you go up."
Phoebe was even more confused when she heard this. She did not understand what Elliot was
planning, but no matter what, she was ready to sacrifice herself. No matter what was waiting for her
ahead, she would grit her teeth to the end!
"Mr. Cook, you promised that as long as I stayed with you for three days, you would lend 20 million
dollars to the Scott Family without interest for three years. You won't go back on your word, will you?"
Phoebe stared at him.
