Chapter 1543: Chapter 1543: You Deserve Much Credit

At this moment, the cup shattered into pieces, yet Hayes Simmons didn’t spare it a glance. He suddenly stood up, his hand beside him clenched into a fist: "Alright, you should go to work now."

The nurse finished her task and didn’t linger, nodded and respectfully said: "Director, I’ll take my leave now."

Though she wished to stay longer, she understood that although the Director was desirable to everyone, he was someone to be admired from afar, not to entertain other thoughts about.

He already had a perfectly matched fiancée.

Someone like her was not even in the same world as him.

No matter how appealing this man was, she had no share in it.

But... but why would such an unattainable man like the Director care about the words and actions of a little nurse?

Is there some unspeakable relationship between him and Stella Nelson?

No, that can’t be right.

After all, Stella Nelson is just like them, with average family background and appearance, very mediocre in every aspect. What connection could she have with someone like the Director?

The little nurse left with a belly full of doubts.

She vaguely felt that the Director seemed to care a lot about Stella Nelson, but just now when she carefully observed, as she reported Stella Nelson’s situation, the Director’s reaction was very calm, without any unusual expression.

If there was anything amiss, it was that broken cup.

The Director wasn’t a careless person, and that cup shouldn’t have been broken.

Once the little nurse left, Hayes Simmons’ expression suddenly darkened.

He stood by the table, his clenched hand pressed onto the tabletop, staring at the shards of the porcelain cup for a long time. Then he took out his phone and dialed a number.

The call connected...

Hayes Simmons took a deep breath, restraining his anger: "Stella Nelson, come to my office immediately."

"Yes, I have something very important to discuss with you."

After hanging up, Hayes Simmons thought for a moment and dialed another number: "Go get some dishes from Richmond, something light... and suitable for pregnant women. Why are you asking so many questions, just go and do it. If you say another word, I’ll dock half a month’s salary."

The sky grew darker.

Scarlett Yates never thought she would sleep for so long.

After she woke up, the outside had turned half-dark. Looking at the wall clock, the hour hand pointed to six in the afternoon.

She moved slightly in Matthew Saxon’s embrace, pulling her head out from under the blanket. As soon as she moved, Matthew Saxon’s eyelids stirred, and he slowly opened his eyes.

The low, husky voice was irresistibly sexy, sounding right above her head: "Awake?"

Having slept for so long, Scarlett Yates felt that Matthew Saxon’s body had finally warmed up.

At least, his body was no longer cold.

She felt that this way of keeping warm by holding each other was quite nice; they should continue doing it in the future.

She finally pulled her head out of the blanket, inhaling fresh air and nodded: "Yes, awake."

"I think I’ve slept for quite a while."

Scarlett Yates calculated the time and nodded again: "Yes, slept for six hours. Did you sleep well?"

If he hadn’t slept enough, she was willing to keep sleeping with him, although she was a bit hungry, she could endure it.

Matthew Saxon’s voice was a little raspy, yet his spirit seemed fine: "Slept very well, all thanks to you, Scarlett. You deserve credit."

He wasn’t lying, nor did he say it just to please her.
