Daryl had an unattractive appearance. He didn't expect that she would figure it out, so he was nervous.
Those beautiful eyes revealed uneasiness. He licked his lips and tried to explain to Trixie.
"Sorry, honey, I admit that I was wrong today and shouldn't have lied to you..."
"Daryl." Trixie sighed and continued, "I'm tired of listening to the three words 'I am sorry. Do you think
that as long as you finish saying these words to me, things will be fine in an instant, and I will not be
angry?" Looking at Daryl's embarrassed face, Trixie couldn't help sneering. "Even at Kinsley's age, she
knows how useless the word 'I'm sorry is. If anything can be solved by apologizing, then what are rules
for?"
Trixie's words made Daryl unable to refute. He also knew that Trixie was furious at the time.
"Hailey showed up at work this afternoon and announced that she wanted to ask me out. I didn't want
to, but she insisted on asking me to do a favor for her. Aiden's student status isn't here. Therefore he'll
have to be moved forcefully next year. The school they are now attending is one of the tops in the city
and in New York. If they refuse, it will be impossible for them to reclaim their entrance quota, and they
may have to study for two years, night shift. Even though this had nothing to do with us, Hailey knelt in
front of me today and pleaded with me, and I was moved." Daryl was like a child who has done
something wrong, explaining and looking at Trixie's face.
Trixie's expression was still frigid, but Daryl clearly noticed a hint of emotion on her face. Children are
always the most convincing excuses.
"Then why didn't she do a good job for her kid before sending him to school?"
"Aiden's registered permanent residence followed his father, and his student status fell in New York,
and he would not be able to turn around for a while. Hailey wants me to help find someone to see if I
can follow her child's account."
Trixie asked, "What about Aiden's father?"
"He's dead, car accident."
Daryl's words were very concise, but Trixie couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable.
That's her and Hailey's business. People like Hailey knelt down to Daryl for the sake of the innocent
child. If she is adamant about it once more, she appears to be merciless in Trixie.
"What are you going to do?"
"Help her one last time." Daryl also looks helpless.
He looked troubled into Trixie's eyes as he says, "My dear, I swear. This is really the last time I'll help
her. I really didn't want to make you angry. I met her at that restaurant today. I was always worried that
you would pass by and see us there, and then we would quarrel over these small things. So I
especially called Rick to come over. I didn't expect Rick to leave as soon as he came. I thought it
wouldn't look good if Rick came without drinking, so I stayed there with Rick for a while... and you saw
it. " When Daryl explained, his tone sounded so wrong.
From time to time, he glanced at Trixie's face and was relieved to see that Trixie's emotions had
subsided little by little.
"Actually, I didn't see it." Trixie sighed lightly. "I met Hailey when I picked up Kinsley. She told me that
you are having dinner with a young girl on that road, and so I passed."
"In any case, I don't owe her anything after this matter is handled, and there is nothing to say to her in
the future."
"Hmm."
Trixie deliberately mentioned that Hailey exposed him in a bad light, but Daryl did not respond to
Hailey's behavior after that. Not even a little angry.
This puzzled Trixie.
But her confusion didn't last long because Daryl carried her directly into the bedroom without waiting for
her to think about it.
The following day, Daryl left breakfast as usual and sent Kinsley to school. Trixie finished eating in a
hurry and drove to the company.
Her recent work was not too busy. She handled the things in less than two hours and sent them to
Director Frank's mailbox. Just less than two minutes after the file was uploaded, she suddenly received
a WeChat from Frank.
"Come to my office."
A few words but left Trixie in confusion. She constantly recalled whether there is something wrong with
the file she uploaded just now.
Walking to the door of Frank's office, Trixie held some courage to knock on the door. When she heard a
"come in" inside, she pushed the door and went in. Frank sat on the sofa with a computer and a cup of
coffee on the table. He seemed to be busy.
Trixie sipped his lips and asked carefully, "Director Jacob, what do you want me to do?"
"There is one thing I almost forgot to tell you. I just remembered it when you sent an email."
At this point, he picked up his mobile phone and clicked it a few times. Then Trixie's mobile phone
received a message, which was a photo he sent. Trixie hesitated for a moment and finally clicked on
the image. Looking at the contents in the photo, her shallow smile gradually disappeared, and the hand
holding the mobile phone could not help shaking.
The photo showed a man hugging a woman. From the perspective of the photo, the two seemed to be
kissing. She can only see the back of the man, but she can clearly see the woman. That face is none
other than Hailey. Even the background of the picture shows the street where she went to find Daryl
yesterday.
Trixie suppressed his anger and asked Frank calmly, "Where did you take this photo?"
"The street behind the school. But it was taken several days ago. I forgot whether it was five days ago
or a week ago. I went to dinner with two friends and saw this. I wanted to send it to you at that time, but
I forgot when I drank too much."
Frank took a sip of coffee and looked at Trixie's trembling hand. The expression on her face was so
complicated to tell. Seeing Trixie not talking for a long time, he couldn't help explaining, "Don't get me
wrong, I took it by chance, not..."
"I know." Trixie took a deep breath and smiled at him. "Can I take half a day off, Director Frank? The
work has been dealt with almost and will not delay the company's affairs. I want to go back and solve
some private affairs."
Trixie's reaction made Frank regret telling her about it, but the words had already been said and could
not be taken back. Even if he is not allowed to take this leave, Trixie will still go to Daryl after work
because Frank can see that although Trixie was calm on the surface, the trembling hands and feet
show her anger. Frank left some selfishness. He wanted to allow Trixie's request for a leave.
"Of course, the company has nothing to do anyway. Go ahead." His eyes have been looking at the
computer screen, afraid to look directly into Trixie's eyes.
It was not until Trixie thanked him and left that he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the back of
Trixie leaving quickly.
