Chapter 2119 How Are You?
When she entered her own world, she would filter out any sounds from outside.
She continued working on the designs by making changes here and there. When it was almost time to
get off work, Mary paid her a visit.
Cindy was a little lightheaded, and she looked up at Mary for a long while before finally reacting.
"What's wrong? Did something come up?"
Mary was smiling, but then again, she always had a grin whenever she talked to Cindy. "Yes,
something did come up. Mr. Kaufmann is asking for you."
"Mr. Kaufmann?"
Cindy was stunned. She got up dazedly and left the office.
As she stood in the elevator with Mary, she contemplated for a while and decided to ask anyway, "Did
Mr. Kaufmann say what the matter was? Is he alone in his office?"
Naturally, Mary didn't know that much. She merely answered, "I'm not too sure myself. I just got a call
telling me to take you upstairs. You can ask Mr. Kaufmann when you go in to see him."
Cindy pursed her lips and fell silent.
To be frank, Mr. Kaufmann didn't have a reason to see her since she was just a mere employee.
She spent her days in the office writing and sketching, and she was never involved in any important
work.
At that moment, Cindy sighed quietly as she thought about Gary. If the latter were upstairs too, she
wondered how he would react when he saw her. After all, she knew things might get awkward.
When the elevator arrived at their destination, Mary didn't lead Cindy to the entrance of Mr. Kaufmann's Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
office. Instead, she simply stood at the elevator doors and watched as Cindy made her way there.
Cindy had been here once before, so she navigated the familiar floor and went up to knock on the door
that would lead to Mr. Kaufmann's office.
Mr. Kaufmann was sitting on a chair inside while looking at his phone. He turned to look at Cindy and
gestured for her to come in.
With that, the woman walked over and took a seat in front of Mr. Kaufmann. "Did you ask for me, Mr.
Kaufmann?"
Just like before, Mr. Kaufmann's attitude was quite gentle. "Oh, it's nothing much. How are you getting
by in the company? Is work going smoothly for you?"
Cindy nodded. "Yes, I'm used to it now."
Mr. Kaufmann seemed to be satisfied with the answer, and he proceeded to mention Gary. He said that
Gary had visited him today to talk about the investment project.
Cindy feigned ignorance. "Oh, was Mr. Frye here earlier today?"
Mr. Kaufmann nodded and said, "He also asked about you. In fact, he wanted to know if work was
going well for you. I don't come here often, and I haven't really checked on you these days. That's why
I'm wondering how you've been recently."
Cindy replied hastily, "Everything's fine on my side, and I have no problems at all."
Mr. Kaufmann probably knew she was going to respond like that, so he indicated for her to have some
tea. Then, the two chatted about minor things at work.
Mr. Kaufmann was mild-tempered, so Cindy didn't feel too nervous when talking to him.

The two stayed in his office for more than 20 minutes before Cindy finally took her leave.
After leaving Mr. Kaufmann's office, her heart sank a little.
Mr. Kaufmann kept mentioning how Gary was especially concerned about her. Even though he had
come for business matters today, he still asked Mr. Kaufmann a lot of questions about Cindy's private
matters.
Mr. Kaufmann even joked that the two of them seemed to get along well, adding that he had never
seen Gary being so nice to anyone before.
When Cindy heard that, she was even more troubled. To be honest, she was very thankful to Gary for
helping her land this job, but she hoped that she could establish a clear boundary between Gary and
herself at work.
She didn't want to depend on Gary to help her through any problems in the future; instead, she wanted
to rely on herself when it came to work-related matters.
Cindy returned to the office and sat down. Naturally, the others looked at her in secret.
This time, they merely looked at her without saying anything. After all, her colleagues couldn't get a
good grasp of Cindy's identity and background.
Mr. Kaufmann would call her up and chat with Cindy for no reason, whereas Julia had been fired for
going up against her in public. As such, everyone thought that she wasn't as pure and innocent as she
seemed.
