Chapter 649 Face to Face
Carter called to ask if Cora could check on his aunt today.
She was not gravely ill. She was blind, yet she refused to undergo surgery. And because of that, she stumbled around and bumped into things repeatedly every day, causing numerous injuries to her body.
Cora did promise to check on Carter’s aunt before, so she didn’t
refuse him.
But she didn’t expect Carter to set the meeting place at his office at the Hansen Group.
Cora was secretly opposed to this idea because she would most likely bump into Byron if she went to the Hansen Group.
And after yesterday’s heartbreak and despair, she had actually put an end to her relationship with Byron in her heart.
But Carter said, “Miss Lane, I’ve been so busy lately that I really don’t have time to take my aunt to meet you at other places.”
Cora had no choice but to agree. “All right, then.”
Hence, she went to the Hansen Group after she took Martin back to the Yoris Mansion.
Then she discovered that everyone at the Hansen Group was like

a taut string, and they walked so fast that they seemed to be almost flying.
She had been to the Hansen Group before, yet she had never seen the employees here so strung out to this extent.
Just when she was wondering why each of the employees here looked as if they had gears rotating in their bodies, Carter appeared in a hurry.
“Miss Lane, I’m sorry for making you come here.”
“Carter, don’t be so formal with me. Let’s see your aunt first,”
“Then please follow me, Miss Lane.”
Carter led Cora to his office, and they passed the meeting room on the way.
Coincidentally, a meeting just ended, and many executives of the company were walking out of the meeting room.
The passing executives greeted Carter, each calling him “Mr. Pope“.
Of course, some had their interests piqued upon seeing a beautiful young woman behind Carter.
A middle–aged man walked over and said, “Mr. Pope, this beautiful lady is…”
He was Adolph Mays, a man in his early forties and one of the
Chapter 649 Face to Face company’s shareholders.
He was proficient in the business field and was very popular in the company.
Yet, his only flaw was that he was a pervert!
Many new secretaries in the company’s secretarial department had tragically become his victims.
And now, he found Cora.
He assumed she must be a newly hired assistant, thus explaining why Carter was taking her.
Moreover, since Cora took Martin to kindergarten today, she had specially put on light makeup and wearing a pink dress, making her look so gentle and beautiful that it was difficult for Adolph to connect this person with Dr. Lane, who appeared on
the Internet before.
Adolph stared at Cora so intensely that his eyeballs almost bulged out of their sockets.
But Carter didn’t want to reveal any information about Cora to him, so he just said, “Mr. Mays, she is not someone you can get your hands on.”
“Tch! Do you fancy her yourself? Then let’s see which of us is more capable.”
Adolph didn’t bother to say anything more to Carter and only

showed Cora a determined smile.
And he left.
He had decided that he must sleep with her if he had a chance to get in touch with this woman next time.
Over the years, Adolph had slept with quite a number of women in the company, and most of them had just become regular employees.
In order to keep their jobs, these female employees usually chose to let things go.
Regardless of their reputation, when those individuals made a fuss about it that reached the company’s senior management’s ears, the board of directors would also choose to cover it up for Adolph in consideration of his outstanding ability.
So Adolph had gotten used to these methods and felt he could move freely in the Hansen Group.
Carter wasn’t aware of what Adolph was thinking, only taking Cora directly to his office.
But at this moment, Byron walked out of the conference room and bumped into Carter and Cora face to face.
