CHAPTER 26: CHAPTER 26: ANNOYING!

He picked up the coffee on the table, drank it in one gulp, and the unpleasantness inside him slightly alleviated.

After mixing in the business world for many years, he had seen all kinds of temptations, but he had never experienced such a loss of control.

Even knowing that she might be treating him well with an ulterior motive, he still couldn’t resist her.

A moment later, Noah Drexler turned his head, glanced at the box of peppermint candies she left on the table, reached out to take it, and placed it in his palm for a closer look.

It was just an ordinary box of candies, yet it inexplicably made him feel a bit more cheerful.

Thinking about her appearance just now, a rare smile involuntarily flashed across his handsome face...

The next second, he turned around with the peppermint candies and sat back in his chair.

The large office had already returned to its usual quietness, with the chirping and chattering no longer in his ear, he suddenly felt something was missing.

Clearly, since he came here, this office had always been so quiet, but at this moment... he actually found this long-familiar silence so hateful!

—Knock knock!

At this moment, the office door was knocked from outside.

"Come in!" Noah Drexler withdrew the expression on his face, returning to his usual indifference, then moved his lips and spoke.

The door was pushed open, and a young man in a suit and tie walked in.

"Boss, what’s going on outside?" Flynn Hughes asked with a face full of confusion as soon as he came in.

Noah Drexler didn’t answer him, just looked down at the item in his hand.

Seeing Noah Drexler’s expression at this time, Flynn Hughes showed a bit of helplessness on his face.

When he came in just now, the group outside specifically asked him to plead with the boss, but who wouldn’t know Noah Drexler’s temper... at this time, he really didn’t dare to speak up and plead.

"Ahem..." After a long while, Flynn Hughes awkwardly coughed, then tentatively spoke up.

"Although they were negligent this time, they have also made a lot of contributions to the company over the years. Just dock some of their bonuses and let them off this time..."

As he finished speaking, Flynn Hughes continued to observe Noah Drexler’s expression, only to find that he didn’t even lift his head to look at him, but was staring at the small item in his hand.

Seeing this, Flynn Hughes assumed that Noah Drexler was still annoyed, and he couldn’t help but feel a bit fearful, but for the sake of those long-time subordinates outside, he still asked Noah Drexler once more.

"Boss, what do you think?"

Hearing Flynn Hughes’ rambling voice, Noah Drexler couldn’t help but furrow his brows and impatiently said.

"Whatever!"

Clearly, all the noise was annoying, yet this guy’s voice made him feel irritation, while Summer Shawcross’s was different...

Noah Drexler’s casual remark left Flynn Hughes quite startled, he looked at Noah Drexler in disbelief.

This was the first time he succeeded in pleading for someone because in the past when he came to plead with Noah Drexler, the result was not only unsuccessful, but even he himself got implicated and punished.

"Boss, do you really agree not to fire them?" Due to the shock, Flynn Hughes couldn’t help but ask again.

"Nagging!"

Flynn Hughes’ voice prompted Noah Drexler to frown again, he finally put down the box of peppermint candies in his hand, placed it on the desk, then looked up at him.

"Handle it yourself, don’t come and bother me."
