Chapter 270 Unrequited Love
The sound of a knock interrupted Xander’s thoughts.
He snapped out of his thoughts, and only then did he realize he had lost his composure.
…..
Seeing Grace peacefully asleep, Xander didn’t disturb her. Instead, he walked to the door and stopped
the group of people who had come to report to him.
“Let’s go and handle this in the conference room.”
The group exchanged glances in confusion, not understanding why the location had been changed at
the last minute. Nevertheless, they obediently went to the conference room.
Grace was sleeping soundly. When she woke up, the spacious office was empty. As she got up,
the thin blanket on her slid off and fell to the floor.
She quickly picked it up. The next moment, the door to the office was pushed open. Xander walked in,

In a low and melodious voice, he said, “You’re awake.”
Grace looked a bit awkward. “Did I sleep for a long time?”
“Well, not too long.”
Xander walked up to her with a faint smile. “Do you want to walk around?”
Grace was surprised. “Can I do that?”
“Of course.”
Grace nodded, and Xander took her on a tour of the company.
The scale of Futurelink was huge. It was hard to believe that a company that had opened its office here
less than half a year ago had become so big.
The staff members were well–trained and very efficient in their work.
Xander walked with Grace and introduced her to several major departments and their respective
heads. After a while, the two arrived at the sales department.
“Ms. Snow, who’s the person following Mr. Fulton over there?” a colleague quietly asked
Linda.
Linda raised her eyes and saw Grace not far away. Her eyes darkened as she said, “Ms. Lewis, a
director of the company.”
“Ms. Lewis? Is she the one Mr. Fulton introduced us to at the employee meeting before?”

“What’s the relationship between her and Mr. Fulton? They look quite close.”
“Do you think she’s Mr. Fulton’s girlfriend?”

Another colleague added, “I think so. When has Mr. Fulton ever been so nice to a woman? He
personally led her on a tour of the company. He’s never been this patient, even with important clients.”

“Right. He doesn’t even have a female secretary by his side. We used to suspect there was something
wrong with him, but now I think he’s been deliberately avoiding having his girlfriend doubt him.”
“Oh my! Where can we find such a good man? I think Mr. Fulton is the only one.”
As Linda listened to her colleagues‘ discussion, her face turned ugly. She used to be Xander’s
secretary, the only female secretary.
Yet she had been transferred to the sales department. All of this was undoubtedly related to
Grace.
“Focus on your work and stop gossiping!” Linda sternly reprimanded them. Her colleagues looked at
each other. They dared not say anything more and obediently returned to their seats.
After Linda left, they gathered again. “Why do you think Ms. Snow was transferred from the president’s
office to the sales department?”
“And did you notice she’s unusually concerned about Mr. Fulton’s affairs? That’s completely beyond the
usual concern a subordinate has for a superior.”
“Does she have feelings for Mr. Fulton? But he’s already taken, so is it unrequited love?”
