Gracie was super worried about the whole thing, and Sebastian had no clue from start to finish. He might think she and Ashley purposely approached Stephanie to seek his help. So she explained everything in great detail. After she finished talking, she carefully looked at Sebastian.
At this moment, Sebastian's face was as cold as ice.
Gracie figured that with his expression, things probably wouldn't go well.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMartin, who was deep in thought, said, "So back then, Ms. Bishop convinced you to agree by using this method?" Gracie forced a smile, "Yes. I had already agreed with Cyrus Damon that unless Ms. Bishop signed with the company, there was no way I'd take her, let alone Ms. Owens.
The people I, Gracie, bring in are those I personally choose because I see potential in them.
Although Ms. Bishop and Ms. Owens seem alright, they haven't reached the level I approve of yet." Martin nodded and looked at Sebastian: "Boss, about this matter..." He seemed like he wanted to say something, but seeing Sebastian's expression, he didn't dare continue. Gracie stood up with a bitter smile, "Forget it, I just wanted to ask for your help with this. Although it might be a small matter to you, for Ashley, it's a turning point in her life, as well as for her daughter.
Anyway, whether you help or not is your choice. Even if you don't, Ms. Bishop is very caring toward me, and I will properly guide her and follow your standards.
Since that's the case, I'll excuse myself." Martin quickly said, "Ms. Gracie, letwalk you out." Just as they were about to leave, Sebastian suddenly said, "I'll give you an answer tomorrow." Gracie couldn't help but feel happy, "Thank you for considering, boss. I'll wait for your reply." He didn't directly refuse but promised to consider.
Gracie thought that this was already the best she could hope for in an unfortunate situation.
Martin winked at her and while sending her to the elevator, said, "Don't worry, Ms. Gracie, whether this works out or not mainly depends on our boss's wife. Just wait for the good news." Gracie asked in surprise, "Can Ms. Bishop have such a significant influence on President Ingram?" Martin raised his eyebrows, "Based on my understanding of our boss, I guess the reason he looked so upset just now wasn't because of the favor you asked for today, but because Ms. Bishop had asked Ashley to be her teacher and never told our boss. That's what he's angry about." Gracie was even more surprised, "So I unintentionally screwed over Ms. Bishop?" She hadn't expected Sebastian to be that kind of person. If that was the case, it could only mean that Stephanie held an unusually high position in his heart.
Only if someone had a special place in their heart would they care so much about not being told about something, and getting angry because of it, right? For sreason, Gracie suddenly felt more hopeful about Ashley's situation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMartin smiled and said, "Don't worry, Ms. Gracie, the boss is really fond of Ms. Bishop, he even bought ..n Rebecea's castle as her dowry and a bunch of jewelry for her. So he won't really do anything to her.
At most, he'll just lecture Ms. Bishop a bit, and all she needs to do is just needs to coax him a little, and then this matter will pass."
Gracie was shocked, "Rebecca...that castle built by the Spider family for her when she was born?"
"That's right...didn't expect that, did you? Our boss spares no effort im spoiling his wife. Do you know how much money he spent to buy that villa?"
