Chapter: 567
Mrs. Dreskin's visit wasn't a trivial matter. Should he fail to keep her, his tenure at the company would become redundant!
Jackson experienced his own apprehension, though he masked it well. He consoled his assistant, "Don't overthink it. Mr. Dreskin isn't the miserly sort."
Naturally, this was a fabrication for the sake of his assistant! Journeying with trepidation, Jackson entered the office and confronted Bennett, who occupied the sofa. "What's the purpose of this meeting, Mr. Dreskin?"
“Do you have any antacid by chance?"
Jackson paused momentarily, replying, “Yes, I keep some in my desk drawer. Do you require it?"
"Yes."
“In that case, I'll retrieve some right away Startled, Jackson exited the office. Despite serving under Bennett for numerous years, this was the first instance where he witnessed Bennett indulging excessively!
Was it due to the delectable cooking of Mrs. Dreskin?
Certainly not!
Bennett wasn't someone who reveled in food. For him, palatable dishes were mere sustenance.
So, why this excessive consumption now?
No need for further contemplation!
Naturally, it stemmed from love!
Returning to the secretary's office, Jackson delivered a thumbs-up to his fretful assistant, who sought an explanation, asking “What are you implying?"
“I'll brief you on it later," Jackson stated, procuring antacid from his drawer.
Upon sighting the antacid clutched by Jackson, the assistant also displayed astonishment.
“Wait, is it Mr. Dreskin who needs it?"
"Yes!" Jackson affirmed before hastening back to the CEO's office. "Mr. Dreskin, here's the antacid you requested."
Accepting the antacid, Bennett cast a glance at Jackson. "Notify the staff not to disturb my wife when she visits the company in the future."
His delicate wife was easily intimidated. He wished to prevent her from feeling too fearful to come back here again.
Comprehending his intention, Jackson nodded.
“Understood, I'll take care of it."
Truth be told, he envied Mrs. Dreskin a little.
This marked the first time his boss had exhibited such deep concern for someone!
