Chapter 402
Willow initially kept a smile on her face, but she became tense upon seeing Frank.
Although she wanted to greet him, Frank did not give her the opportunity to do so as there was a look of deep disgust and prejudice in his eyes. After glancing at her, he walked past her as if she was not even there.
The look he gave her was like adding salt to injury. It made her feel even more hurt.
Willow only took a deep breath after he had walked far away. She recollected herself and pressed the elevator button again. Once the elevator door opened, she walked inside.
The elevator door opened once it reached the top floor. Willow instantly saw Tyson.
Tyson was surprised to see her. "Ms. Nason, aren't you on sick leave today?"
"I didn't apply for sick leave," Willow said while she walked out.
After saying that, she realized who had applied for sick leave on her behalf. She quickly turned around and asked Tyson, "What did Mr. Hughes say?"
"He didn't say anything, but I think you'd better report to Mr. Hughes' office first," Tyson replied with a smile on his face.
"Why?" Willow asked.
"Take a guess." Tyson walked into the elevator and closed the door.
Willow paced back and forth. Finally, she decided to do as Tyson suggested.
Tyson had worked for Jasper for many years. He definitely knew Jasper better than she did.
Tyson would not have made such a suggestion without a justifiable reason.
Willow knocked on the door once she arrived in front of the CEO's office.
After receiving permission in the form of a deep voice from behind the door, Willow pushed the door open and walked in. "Mr. Hughes, should I get the conference room ready?"
Willow reported in by talking about something work-related.
Jasper recognized her voice and stopped writing. He looked up and saw her.
She barely had any makeup on her face, but she looked youthful and chic.
Her long, tight skirt made her lower body appear even more slender. Her curves were beautiful.
Her long, fair calves were exposed.
The teasing length of her skirt made her even more seductive.
Jasper recalled how she had
resigned from Hughes Corporation not because of her own intent, but it was instead Frank's doing by offering her 100,000 dollars in compensation.
Meanwhile, the company informed him that Willow resigned on her own and was willing to pay 200,000 dollars for breaking the contract.
Jasper had misunderstood her. He thought she was willing to pay 200,000 dollars so that she could turn to Xavier.
Now that he saw her, he could not help but feel a warmth in his chest.
He waved at her. "Come here."
Willow recalled how he pulled her onto his lap the last time he summoned her. She immediately felt tense.
Despite feeling unsettled, Willow did not dare to disobey Jasper. She stepped forward and stood by the desk. "Mr. Hughes, how can I help you?"
"You're hurt. What are you still doing here?" It sounded as if he was reprimanding her.
If she had not been aware of his hatred toward her, and everything he did was to make her life miserable, she might have actually thought he cared about her.
"It's only a minor injury. I can still

making sure the desk was in front of her. She was too afraid to get any closer to him.
"Is that so?" Jasper stood up. He instantly towered over her. The sense of oppression was overwhelming.
