Chapter 561 Grievance

Aniston nodded when she heard Faye's words.

Several minutes later, Faye watched Aniston and William off. Then she picked up her phone from the desk and texted Colin.

[Faye] We need Robert to clarify Aniston's rumor.

Colin replied to her message immediately.

[Colin] Okay. I will ask the finance staff to deduct Robert's year-end bonus.

[Faye]?

[Colin] Just regard it as his appreciation of treating us to a meal.

[Faye]...

[Colin] Honey, I miss you.

Colin had shifted the topic so abruptly that Faye was dumbfounded for a while. After a long while, she finally came to her sense and replied to the message. [Faye] Me too.

On the other side...

Aniston and William all looked serious when they walked out of Faye's office.

William immediately guessed what she was thinking. He asked, "Do you feel it awkward to trouble Robert?"

As only the two were in the elevator, Aniston replied honestly with a nod, "It's really awkward?"

William said, "It's normal for friends to help each other. Moreover, you were neighbors in childhood."

Aniston pressed her lips and leaned against the elevator silently.

William asked said in a lower voice, "You're so stubborn. There's no outsider here. It's normal for stars to make use of their fans to suppress their rivals, but you..."

Aniston stood straight and interrupted William, "I need to bear legal responsibilities if it attracted great attention. I earn money and enjoy it by myself. Why should I let my fans bear the legal responsibilities together with me?"

William commented, "What a stubborn girl!"

Aniston said, "We should have some empathy. Let alone adults who could be fully responsible for themselves, we should consider students who can't make a distinction between right and wrong. If I were their parent, think about it, if my child is involved in a lawsuit because of his or her idol, what will I think of it?"

William was choked.

Aniston continued with a smile, "William, I know you're not that kind of person. I just want to tell you that if I have a child in the future and he or she has an idol, I hope what that idol brings to my child is all positive and I hope he or she can guide my child to be a better person. I don't want that idol to make use of my child's immaturity and cognitive bias to do some risky things."

William said, "Maybe I can treat you and Faye to a meal together later. You two will be good friends."

Aniston's smile widened. She said, "I like Ms. Nash very much."

William shook his head with a smile, "You two are all breaths of fresh air in showbiz."

The elevator doors were opened when William finished the words. The two immediately shut up.

They walked out of the elevator one after another. William asked in a low voice, "Do you need me to accompany you there?"

Aniston replied, "No need, William. You may wait for me here."

William didn't want to go with Aniston either. He didn't want to involve in the affairs of the youngsters.

William appeared to be serious when he heard Aniston's words, but he was very joyful inside.

After finishing the conversation with William, Aniston walked to the assistant's office in high heels.

She was a popular star now and the working staff coming and going all glanced at her when they saw her. Especially the secretaries in the secretary's office all popped their heads from behind the door out of curiosity.

"Is it Aniston?"

"Is she here to find Robert?"

"I heard they're in love. But seems like it's the first time I see Aniston come to find Robert."

Aniston ignored the discussion behind her and raised her hand to knock at the door of the assistant's office.

The person inside said, "Come in, please." Then Aniston pushed open the door and walked in.

When Aniston entered the office, Robert was on a call with his back to her.

He was in a white shirt and a pair of suit pants. With one hand holding his phone, he placed the other hand on the French window.

The person on the other end of the line said something and Robert asked with a gloomy smile, "Do you think it possible?"

He turned around after finishing the words.

The cold smile on his face immediately disappeared when he saw Aniston. He slightly pressed his thin lips.

Aniston was stunned for several seconds when their eyes met.

She felt strange.

The person on the other end of the line was still speaking, but a hint of impatience had flashed across Robert's eyes. After a while, he talked into the phone, "Let's talk about this in the afternoon." That person said, "Robert, I beg you. Please..."

Robert ended the call before that person finished the words.

Robert put his phone back into his pocket and then strode toward Aniston.

Aniston subconsciously stepped back.

Robert lowered his eyes, looking aggrieved and sad, and asked, "Aniston, are you afraid of me?"
