Chapter 815
Will raised his eyebrow, "Can't hold it anymore?"
Cole's expression changed slightly; he hacked a sheepish cough. His small eyes now looked as if they
had shut closed.
He rubbed his nose before speaking, "Mr. Darcey, you... you know she's hurt and is worried. Why didn't
you ask her directly?"
"If I asked, it would only make her feel like I'm monitoring her."
Cole was at a loss for words.
You're observing her twenty-four hours a day. Doesn't that count as monitoring?
Even if he had no ill intention but to protect her, she would still be unhappy if she discovered his action
without consulting her will.
Cole held his tongue. He could only nod, "Ah... you're right."

Will swept a glance at him, and Cole immediately got frigid. He thought for a while and spoke again,
"Then...should we continue with the preparations you asked of us previously? They may not be able to
make it back at the moment."
"Get it ready."
Will said assertively.
Cole acknowledged the task. Seeing that Will had no other requirement, he continued to brief Will on
the other work matters. Linda was in no mood to do anything else after talking to Elisa. She languished
for about half an hour and finally got off work! Without further ado, she dashed to Norman's office!
She wanted to go home with him!
She tried to hold back her frustration and probed her parents only after they got home.
Norman didn't expect his daughter would come to his office. He asked, "Why are you here?"
Seeing that there were other shareholders in Norman's office, she beamed courteously, nodded at
them, and then said to her father, "I want to go home with you."
The shareholder laughed, "You have such a caring and thoughtful daughter, Mr. Benett."
Without a doubt, Norman was delighted to receive the compliment. He smiled, "She is indeed very
caring and thoughtful. You have a good daughter yourself too. She was cute and polite when I saw her
last time."
The shareholder smiled and said, "My daughter is such a tomboy. I think cute doesn't suit her. I better
get going since Mr. Benett wants to go home soon."
Norman reciprocated with a smile without saying anything else and then left the office with Linda.
He hadn't felt so peaceful in a long time.
Norman turned to look at Linda, "Why did you suddenly want to go home with Daddy, Linda?"
"I'm worried that you'll have to attend networking functions. You'll then drink too much and damage your
health."
"Huh?" Norman was confused, "Isn't it common nowadays to go out and socialize?"

Networking and drinking came hand in hand in business.
Linda smoldered with resentment. She stood aside quietly as she wasn't in the mood to talk to her
father.
Norman was oblivious to Linda's frustration and thoughts. He carried on and said. "How was your day?
Did you enjoy working today?"
"No." Linda gave a perfunctory response.
Linda was cold and aloof when Norman casually asked her some more questions.
Their dull and desultory conversation faded as their driver drove them home. Linda dozed off in the
back seat. Norman didn't bother her and quietly browsed his phone.
When they arrived home, Linda promptly opened her eyes and strutted down the car.
Norman followed behind her.
When Rose saw her husband and daughter come home together, she smiled and said. "You guys are
back. I've made dinner. Come, let's eat together."
Quivering with anger, Linda couldn't contain her burgeoning emotion after hearing her mother's words.
