Before Linden could pull his hand back, Barclay canceled the command and pressed the button for the

Linden was confused and asked, “Mr. Covington, are you not returning to your office?” He thought, “Project
manager Freddie Hunt is still waiting for Barclay in the CEO's office.”
Unexpectedly, Barclay briefly replied, “No.” His answer showed there was no room for negotiation.

Moira was not ashamed of her relationship with Allie. She viewed it as a pity of life instead. Therefore, she did
not mind Juliet mentioning it.
Juliet: [Why don’t you ask Mr. Covington to compensate for your loss of 20 million dollars?)

Moira leaned her head to look at Barclay and briefly told him everything that happened an hour ago.
She realized Barclay remained silent after she finished talking. Thus, she carefully asked, “Do you think my
