The woman suddenly cried out in alarm, startling Sean Carter. He quickly started to explain, "Ah, yes, but don't worry, the boss is fine. Luckily, he wasn't alone at the time. Miss Sterling was—"
However, the woman on the other end didn't wait for Sean Carter to finish.
"What is wrong with you? You're Damien's personal assistant, and you know his physical condition better than anyone. That virus in his body could flare up at any moment. Why weren't you by his side!?" Miss Jacobs raged at Sean Carter.
"It was the boss. He wouldn't let me follow him. He wanted to be with Miss—"
Again, without letting Sean Carter explain, Miss Jacobs continued to berate him. "Even if Damien told you not to follow, as his assistant, you should have considered his safety and insisted on staying with him! Damien is willful. Are you just going to let him do whatever he wants!?"
Faced with her harsh accusations, Sean Carter could only feel wronged in silence.
