“Okay, no problem. Wait there. I’ll come over right now.”
“Yvette interrupted Lance and easily agreed to go pick him up.
Lance happily hung up and waved at his companions.
“You guys go first. My wife is coming.” His companions said, “You have a wife?”
Another person said, “Stop lying. Since when do you have a wife?”
“Mr. Sheldon, you don’t have to do this, alright? There are plenty of people who want to pick you up. Are you making up this excuse because you were unable to woo a lady?”
“Mr. Sheldon, why don’t you just carpool with us?”
Lance’s expression darkened slowly as he looked at his colleagues. Although he usually did not put on airs, he really could not help but want to get angry when they said that about him.
He scoffed softly and immediately found a seat nearby.
“This is ridiculous. Can’t I have a wife? Why would I lie?”
Lance was a high and mighty president. Did he need to lie?
His surrounding companions clearly did not believe him.
Lance gnashed his teeth. “You all can stay and wait here with me. See if my wife shows up or not. I’ll make her admit it herself!”
Everyone laughed.
As if to prove that Lance was spouting bullsh*t,
they really sat down and waited for his wife to come.
They were executives who had a good relationship with Lance, so they did not put on airs when talking and laughing with him.
Furthermore, although Lance had good conditions and many women wanted to throw themselves at him, not many women were really willing to do so because Lance rejected most women.
Therefore, there was a joke circulating in the company that instead of targeting Lance, it was better to target the executives instead.
The relatively attractive people sat in a row and waited for Lance’s wife.
They absolutely did not believe that Lance had a wife.
Especially when they heard that his ex-girlfriend ran away with $500 million, they all felt like Lance was a woman repeller.
Fifteen minutes, half an hour, and eventually, one hour passed.
Lance could not reach Yvette on the phone at all. His expression became slightly sunken and unpleasant.
To the side, someone finally could not help but laugh.
“Mr. Sheldon, did your wife get lost?”
“Oh, it’s already been more than an hour. She should have reached even if she lives far away, right?”
“Mr. Sheldon, stop forcing yourself. There’s nothing wrong with being single. Why should you lie?”
“Forget it, maybe something was delayed? We’ll accompany Mr. Sheldon and wait!”
Lance did not say a word, but his expression as he sat there was extremely glum.
However, he had no intention of leaving. Two hours passed.
Some people were already getting impatient and stood up with a smile.
“Mr. Sheldon, you can continue to wait here. My wife is urging me to go home for dinner.”
“I can’t wait any longer either. Take care, Mr. Sheldon!”
“Mr. Sheldon, are you really not coming back with us? We promise we won’t make fun of you!”
“Even if you had a wife, two hours would be enough to make a couple of trips back and forth, right?”
Lance’s eyes glanced at them coldly, and his voice was low.
“I’m not leaving. I’ll wait for my wife!”
Everyone shrugged, not wanting to waste time anymore.
After saying goodbye to Lance, they left while whistling.
Lance was so angry that he could not speak. What happened to his wife?
Another hour later, Yvette finally called. He did not even feel like answering.
However, when he thought that he could not wait three hours in vain and that she came all the way to fetch him, he very reluctantly picked up her call.
