Chapter 27 ZL International Group Headquarters
“No!” She was thinking about how Callum had been interfering in everything about her recently , and now that he knew she was drunk, would he teach her a lesson?
He lifted the quilt and got out of bed. ” Briar , I won’t tell you any more for now. I have something to say!” He hung up the phone in a hurry and walked to the bathroom despite the headache.
While taking a bath, Aurelia was still thinking, when facing her so-called Hubby next , should she rebel or apologize?
Would a rebel be buried alive? What about asking for forgiveness by carrying a thorn stick on one’s back? Would that reduce the sentence?
How about… giving it a try?
Thinking of this, she hurriedly finished her shower and went downstairs.
Mary was just about to go upstairs to wake her up when she saw her coming downstairs and quickly asked her to come over for lunch.
While eating the lunch made by Mary , Aurelia came up with an idea. Why not cook a few dishes and send them to Callum for dinner ?
Well! She thinks it’s feasible!
In fact, if she calmed down and thought about it carefully, she felt that what he should consider now should not be the issue of divorce, but the issue of whether she would be buried alive!
So I have to find a way to please the one in her family…
But! But! It’s just that she can’t cook!
Mary busy in the kitchen , she hesitated for a moment and could only learn on the spot.
Then the whole afternoon, there were crackling sounds coming from the kitchen, either large pieces of oil splashing out of the pot, or the sound of pots, pans, and spoons colliding with each other.
Finally, at 5:30 in the afternoon, the kitchen was quiet and Mary felt that the whole world was quiet.
She looked at the girl fiddling with the lunch box with an uncertain mind, wiped the sweat off her forehead imperceptibly, hoping that the person eating the food would not be poisoned.

zl International Group Headquarters
zl is located in the most prosperous area of the city center. The 88-story main office building rises into the sky, and more than a dozen curved overhead bridges connect the 66-story building next to it.
This is the headquarters of zl, with no less than a thousand companies of all sizes distributed all over the world.
Aurelia had passed by this place countless times, and this building was one of the most representative buildings in Evercrest . But if Alfred hadn’t told her the address, she would never have known that this was Callum ‘s company.
As far as she knew from her limited knowledge, the ZL Group had various businesses including high technology, real estate, cosmetics, clothing, entertainment, etc.
Callum is the boss.
Callum is really amazing as he can manage such a big company !
Holding the insulated lunch box, I walked into the company. At this time, many people had already started to get off work.
Aurelia wore a white branded bottom and jacket, jeans and white sneakers, and her long purple hair was tied into a bun. She looked like a college student, and many people even wondered if she was a high school student.
The clean and sunny Aurelia attracted a lot of attention. Who is this little girl looking for?
Anna Virginia, the secretary at the front desk, stopped Aurelia who was looking around and looked at her warily.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
Aurelia said a name, which attracted more heads turning, ” Callum .”
Who is this little girl? What is her relationship with their CEO? How dare she call him by his first name? Eighty to ninety percent of the people in Evercrest respectfully call Callum Mr. Finnegan !
Anna Virginia smiled with a hint of contempt, “You must be a fan of our Mr. Finnegan ! Sorry, our Mr. Finnegan is very busy, you can go back!”
There are dozens or hundreds of women who come to see Young Master Finnegan every day, and not everyone can easily see Young Master Finnegan !
“I’m not his fan, I’m his… family.” Their marriage was originally a secret one, and they might get divorced someday, so there was no need to tell the world that she was Callum ‘s wife.
Anna Virginia really laughed this time, with the irony and contempt on her face. “Little girl, how can you lie at such a young age? Why don’t you ask around? Mr. Finnegan ‘s family has been working in the company in the United States all year round. You don’t even know such a simple thing. Are you still a fan of Mr. Finnegan ?”
She waved her hand, signaling Aurelia to leave quickly.
“I’m not lying. If you don’t believe me, call Callum !” She looked at the woman’s contemptuous expression and felt a little angry. What? Was she looking down on me?
Anna Virginia crossed her arms and looked at Aurelia indifferently , “Family? Then you, the family member, should call Mr. Finnegan !”
The obvious disbelief in his tone made Aurelia grit her teeth and take out her phone to call Alfred .
Oh, you really want to call? Anna Virginia raised her eyebrows, waiting to see who she could call!
The phone was connected, “Hello, Alfred , I’m at Mr Finnegan ‘s company, but there’s an auntie here who won’t let me go up!” Aurelia didn’t want to look at Anna Virginia ‘s distorted face of anger. Who told you to look down on others!
After hanging up the phone, Anna Virginia scolded, “Who are you calling auntie? I’m less than 30 years old. How can a little girl like you be so dumb!” She looked very arrogant.
“You may not be more than 30 years old, but your every move, every word and every behavior, you are more than 40 years old!” Why? Do you think you are awesome because you work in such a big company?
Anna Virginia laughed out of anger, “Didn’t you call? Why is no one answering you?” As soon as she finished speaking, the phone at the service desk rang, making Anna Virginia’s face change drastically. Could it be that this girl really knew Mr. Finnegan ?
She walked to the service desk in two or three steps and saw that it was a call from the president’s office. She was scared to death. Then she looked at the little girl who was looking at her smugly. It seemed that she had really offended the wrong person.
“Hello, President…”
“Send the people downstairs to my office!” Callum ‘s cold voice came from the other side. Anna Virginia’s legs went weak and she quickly held onto the table.
She really messed with the wrong person. The president actually called her personally! It was over! “Okay… President!” She hung up the phone tremblingly and calmed herself down.
It took her more than ten seconds to walk up to Aurelia , put on her usual professional smile, and said to her respectfully, “Hello! Please follow me!” This was really over, would her job be lost?
Anna Virginia, who was walking in front, was thinking about this question with fear. While waiting for the elevator, she glanced at Aurelia awkwardly and said softly, “Um, I’m sorry, I didn’t know your identity just now. Please…”
Before she could finish, Aurelia turned around and interrupted her with a smile, “You don’t have to explain. I know that many people come to see Mr. Finnegan every day .” Her mistake was that she was contemptuous and looked down on others.
Anna Virginia looked at the little girl in surprise. Did she mean to forgive her?
“I’m really sorry. I won’t do this again.” After all, I worked as a receptionist at zl Group for two years. If I encountered some problems, I probably knew how to deal with them and what to do.
