The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella and Romeo) novel Chapter 1097

So now, was the boss bored out of his mind?

No, wait, he suddenly remembered that Ms. Bella had taken off to Lidaria a couple of days ago.

Had she not returned yet? Was Mr. Romeo planning to follow her?

"But Mr. Romeo, didn't Ms. Bella say before she left that she didn't want you tagging along?"

Carl, seated in the driver's seat, remembered their conversation clearly.

With a straight face, Romeo replied, "I'm not going to chase her, I just don't trust anyone else with this project."

Carl thought to himself, "Boss, will Ms. Bella buy that story? If you want to see her, just say so. It's not like she doesn't know you."

"Alright, I'll have the project manager clear the schedule," Carl said, suddenly pausing as a thought struck him. He turned back with a cheeky grin, "Mr. Romeo, tomorrow is Christmas Eve, and the next day is Christmas. What about my holiday?"

"What does a bachelor need a holiday for?"

Carl was speechless, on the verge of tears.

Every time the boss had a date or a holiday, he was left with all the work.

Enough was enough. He had to stand up for himself!

"Got a problem with that?" Romeo's gaze fell on him.

Carl replied with a forced smile, "No. I'm grateful for this opportunity. I'm thrilled."

"If work makes you so happy, you can handle the workload for both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day."

Carl almost cried at the news, "Don't worry, Mr. Romeo. I'll get it all done."

"Off you go."
