Chapter 630 Give Up

Susan and Henry went back to Phillips Bank.

Neither was talking to anybody.

Henry beside her didn't disturb her as if he understood her.

Finally, they arrived at the building.

Susan went off the car.

Henry walked up to hold her hand. Susan paused for a second but didn't refuse him.

They held hands and went into Phillips Bank.

Susan watched the lift going up until they arrived at the floor.

But then she stood still in the elevator and didn't react. Henry held her and indicated that they arrived.

After glancing at Henry, Susan went out of the elevator.

When Callie saw Susan coming, she quickly went to greet her and even wanted to joke with a smile on her face. The next second she was embarrassed because she saw Henry holding her hand. Confused, she thought Manuel and Susan were a couple.

Callie felt too embarrassed to speak, while Susan didn't see her and walked to her seat directly. Then, Susan started packing her stuff.

Henry helped her clean up. But he was not so agile since he only had one hand available.

After a while, Callie couldn't help but ask, "Miss Phillips, did you resign?"

It was absurd.

After all, it was her father's company, she shouldn't be fired.

"No. I changed my position."

"So soon?" Callie was so surprised.

Susan looked cold.

"But you and Mr Johnson..." Before she could finish, she felt Henry look over with a cold look so she didn't dare to speak.

Callie went back to her seat and she looked over now and then.

It was hard for her to accept this. She felt sorry when she thought of the smile on Manuel's face this morning.

Finally, Susan packed up everything. She looked at the empty desk and felt lost. For the first time, she had nostalgia for a post after being forced to work in the company by her father. Although she complained every day, she never came late and she worked overtime.

She intended to work hard at that moment.

She didn't know if she was used to working, or to someone.

She looked at the closed door and didn't know if Manuel found it hard to accept her sudden change.

Manuel didn't say anything on the phone. So she didn't know how to face him now.

"Susan," Henry held her hand.

Susan looked at him.

"Let's go," Henry said.

She thought they should just let it go.

When she was about to leave with Henry, the office door suddenly opened.

Susan's heart beat fast.

She saw Manuel, who seemed to be the same as usual but a little different.

He was still so dignified.

On closer inspection, it seemed that the clothes he was wearing today were a little different from usual. The khaki windbreaker made him look more fashionable and handsome.

"Mr Johnson." Seeing Manuel go out, Callie walked toward him. She was afraid Manuel would be embarrassed.

"Henry, come to my office." After saying that, Manuel turned back and went into his office.

He didn't look at Susan but asked Henry to his office coldly.

Susan felt a sense of a great deal of heartache.

Manuel could give up on her quickly as she expected.

She also hoped so.

"Susan, wait for me. I will come out in a minute." Henry whispered to her.

Susan nodded but said nothing for fear that she would break down upon uttering a word.

Henry walked into Manuel's office and closed the door.

Sitting in his chair, Manuel looked coldly at Henry, who was standing in front of him with an offish face.

"How did you lie to get Susan?"

Henry was a little surprised and didn't expect Manuel would have asked like that.

"I didn't lie. Susan just couldn't let go of me. She has indeed developed a feeling for you, but it is not love but novelty. Once it has passed, she won't be interested in you." "Susan is not that kind of person." Manuel was sure about it.

Susan was pure and faithful to love, which was kind of inconsistent with what she looked outwardly.

"If she isn't, she chose me eventually. No matter how it went, Susan went back to me. I hope you don't abuse your power to win love."

Manuel still wore a poker face, and there was no mood fluctuation on it under Henry's deliberate provocation.

"Don't worry. Since Susan chose you, it was her decision. As for what means you have used, that is also a matter between you. I just want to make sure if you only want Susan."

Henry's countenance changed slightly, feeling that Manuel was reminding him of something.

Manuel's love for Susan was there for all to see. On the other hand, Susan was the only daughter of Edward Phillips, the only heir of Phillips Bank. If Manuel could be with Susan, he would get Phillips Bank too.

Henry's brain got moving, as he was starting a trial on his inside, on Manuel's motives to get to Susan.

Manuel could see Henry's mind since he knew that Henry would suspect him as long as he couldn't understand his behaviour.

But this time, Manuel didn't lie to Henry. He would surely give up Susan since she chose Henry once again.

Maybe he felt disappointed, or maybe he had gotten used to it.
