Autumn stepped out of the restroom and returned to the private room.
They had nearly finished eating, and the group dispersed shortly after.
By the time she got home, Julian still hadn’t returned.
She took a shower and went straight to bed.
She slept through the night without dreams.
The next morning, Autumn went to the office as usual.
After completing her work summary for the previous month, she knocked on the CFO’s office door.
Frank glanced over the report and nodded in satisfaction.
After watching Autumn leave, Frank opened his drawer, took out the resignation letter she had submitted the day before, and headed toward the HR department.
As the elevator doors opened, he ran into Alex Song, the CEO’s assistant.
He greeted him with a smile. "Good morning, Mr. Song."
Alex nodded with a polite smile.
Once the elevator doors closed, Alex asked, "Which floor are you headed to, Mr. Miller?"
"Tenth."
Alex paused for a moment before asking casually, "Are you going to HR to pick up some documents too?"
Frank shook the resignation letter in his hand. "No, I’m submitting Autumn’s resignation."
Alex’s expression shifted slightly, as if he had misheard something.
"Who did you say is resigning?"
"Autumn Lewis," Frank replied, giving him a puzzled look.
Why did Alex react so strongly to her resignation?
Maybe he also recognized her talent and didn’t want her to leave.
With that thought, Frank sighed.
"I actually wanted to persuade her to stay, but she said she was resigning because of health issues. I couldn’t push it further. Health always comes first."
As Julian’s personal assistant, Alex naturally knew about Autumn’s relationship with him.
His gaze fell on the resignation letter in Frank’s hand, and sure enough, Autumn’s name was signed at the bottom.
A flicker of shock crossed Alex’s mind.
But the next moment, a mocking smile tugged at his lips.
Autumn had always been in good health.
There was no way she looked like someone who was sick.
Most likely, she was faking it again, trying to get Julian’s attention.
Tears, tantrums, and threats were typical tricks women used to fight for affection.
When the elevator doors opened, Frank stepped out first.
Alex picked up some documents and headed back to the executive floor on the seventeenth level.
After handing off a file to the secretary, he noticed another assistant holding a stack of documents, just about to deliver them to the CEO’s office.
Alex walked over and reached out his hand. "I’ll take those. You can get back to your work. I need to speak with Mr. Carter anyway, so I’ll drop them off for you."
The assistant handed him the documents with a polite smile. "Thanks, Mr. Song. Coffee’s on me next time."
She was more than happy to let Alex handle the delivery.
