CHAPTER 563

Chapter 563 Just Him?

It was already late when he arrived at the Drew Group. Because he had talked with Miley for a while. Bridger called Paisley but was told by the secretary that she had already left. He could not help but be upset.

Bridger was afraid that Paisley would lie to him again. He deliberately looked around the parking lot for a long time. But he did not see the Drew family’s car. He was worried and waited downstairs until the night screen had hung down. Almost all the people in the company had left, but he did not see her. Paisley was really a capricious woman!

Bridger was angry, while Mallory was also uncomfortable.

Mallory originally wanted to wait for him. But after delaying for a while, she did not see him. He didn’t call her. And she did not dare to take the initiative to call him and could only wait. In the end, she received a call from Paisley.

Mallory did not dare to delay and could only go home.

Mallory did not give up and looked out the window. However, she still did not see that person. Her eyes were full of

disappointment.

Mallory had just entered the room when she keenly sensed that the atmosphere in the room was charged with tension.

She restrained her thoughts and walked over to Paisley. “Paisley.”

“You have become rebellious. After letting you go for a while, you are having fun again. You don’t want to come back,

do you?” looking at the time, Paisley said unhappily.

She had slept for a long time. When she woke up, she found that it was already afternoon, but Mallory had not

returned.

Mallory didn’t need to deal with the company’s affairs for so long. It seemed that she had been wandering outside.

“No, Paisley. I had always been in the company. I hadn’t been to other places. And I was working at the company. If you don’t believe me, you can check or get surveillance videos!” She had been in the Drew Group for half a day and had never stepped out of the company, so she was naturally not afraid of being investigated.

Paisley said with a snort, “I don’t need you to teach me. I will naturally investigate!”

She had indeed never left the company today. Paisley knew this clearly, but she didn’t trust Mallory completely now.

“Did Bridger call you?” Paisley raised her eyebrows and asked casually.

“No!” Mallory shook her head.

Before Paisley responded, Mallory continued to say, “He always calls you, and the only person he is looking for is

you.”

Paisley pursed her lips and suppressed her anger. “Did you see him?” she asked.

“No,” she lowered her eyes and answered clearly. “I had just made a call. He said he wanted to cooperate with you and

asked if you had thought it through.”

“What did you say?”

“I didn’t agree to discuss it on the phone. He wanted to meet me, but I said that I didn’t have time to see him.”

Paisley frowned and said, “Why can’t you reach an agreement with him on the phone? Do you have to meet each other? You still want to cause me trouble!”

Biting her lower lip, Mallory said, “I don’t know what he wants to tell you, and I don’t know your attitude. So I don’t

dare to agree or refuse directly. I can only delay it.

“If you don’t want to cooperate with him, I will reject him directly next time.”

Her words had successfully suppressed Paisley’s anger.

In fact, she also understood that what Mallory said was not wrong. In the past, when she encountered similar problems, she also had similar answers. Mallory did not know the truth about the issues, but she could not let others. find out the clues. So she responded vaguely.

She did not agree or refuse to let Paisley make her own decisions.

However, she met Bridger this time. Paisley was always afraid that Mallory had selfish motives and would still care about him, so she had a great fluctuation of mood.

“Well, I get it. Did he say anything else?” Paisley leaned against the sofa and relaxed a little, which meant that she had calmed down and was not so angry anymore.

Mallory shook her head lightly and seemed to have thought of something. “Well, he also said that the Palmer family would have a family meeting on Saturday. He wanted you to attend and witness how he obtained the power of the Palmer family.”

“Just him?” Paisley laughed out loud. She was laughing so hard that tears were about to come out of her eyes. “Is he still dreaming?”

Mallory pursed her lips and didn’t speak. She didn’t say a word about it.

Paisley pondered for a moment. “The Palmer family will have a family meeting on Saturday. It’s Interesting. But he invites me to go there. Isn’t he afraid of being criticized?”

“Then… are you not going?” Mallory hesitated for a moment before asking.

“Of course, I have to go! Why will I miss such an interesting scene? Even if I see him lose face, I will just take it as a show. Besides, I also want to see him again.”

She was extremely interested in Simon and his wife. She had disdained them before. After all, she had encountered too few worthy foes. However, she did not expect that both of them were actually stronger than her.

She had obtained this scripture. Although she had not cultivated for long, she was more skillful in martial arts than before. This time, she might be able to take a chance and see the gap between them.

“That person… Will you be in danger? Why don’t I go?” Hearing that she might be in danger, Mallory immediately said

nervously.

“It’s not your turn yet! I have my plan!” Paisley glanced at her and said. “Do you want to take the opportunity to see

that man?”

“Of course not! I have no affection for him. To me, he is just a man good at saying flowery words. Paisley, you are the

most important person in my heart.” owns this text.

Although Paisley liked to hear these words, she was also tired of them. She dug her ears and said, “Well, don’t show your loyalty for no reason. You were not like this in the past. I naturally can see that you are loyal, but if you have any

selfish motives, you also know that I would take action.”

Mallory answered, “I know, Paisley.” She took off her coat. “I’ll go back to my room first.”

Tapping her chin, Paisley did not speak. This was her acquiescence.

Mallory then quietly returned to her small basement and closed the door. The dark room was her small world.

Although the sunlight couldn’t come in here, the room belonged to her alone.

She sat down in a corner. After a moment of silence, she seemed to have thought of something. She dug out a small gold ring from the corner of the bed. She could no longer see its original appearance, but it was the most precious gift

she had ever received in her life.

Saturday?

Bridger said that he wanted to obtain the power of the Palmer family. Mallory believed him because his tone was so firm. She felt that he would make it since he was so confident. If he really obtained the power and became the leader of the Palmer family, would Paisley change her mind and marry him? In the future…
