Chapter 65 Vincent looked up from his computer. "You read the whole thing?" "Yes, sir," Alex answered.
"Alright, then." Vincent checked the time. "You can get off work since you're done." Alex was flabbergasted. "But... you haven't toldwhat's wrong with it." "Oh." Vincent took the document back from him. "Nothing's wrong with it. I just wanted you to read it a few more times. What if there was a mistake somewhere?" Alex was rendered speechless. Vincent ignored him and called out to Tiffany, who was packing her things. "Hold up." She stopped. "I've finished all my work, Mr. Lewis. Or did you needto stay back for a while?" She was fine with working overtime, but Teresa was still in the hospital. She wanted to spend stwith her. "No, that's not it." Vincent turned off his computer as he spoke. When he saw Alex still standing there, he asked, "Aren't you leaving?" "Oh... Yeah, I'm going to go. See you tomorrow, Mr. Lewis. You, too, Tiffany." "See you, Mr. Zander."

Should I give you a ride?" She shook her head. "I'm heading to the hospital." "The hospital?" She pursed her lips, not wanting to say more on the subject.

Have you applied the ointment on your shoulder?" "Yes. I did it in the restroom." "Good." Vincent was afraid of scaring her off, so he grabbed his briefcase and asked, "Should we get going?" Tiffany fell behind him. "You can head off first, Mr. Lewis." He turned to look at her. "But why?" She shook her head. "It's nothing."
She just didn't want to give others the chance to gossip about her. It was fine if they wanted to badmouth her, but she didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble for Vincent. en
