Not only him, but other senior executives from different departments were also dumbfounded as they watched the CEO quickly leave the conference room.
It wasnt until a moment later that Samuel Mckinley, the CEOs Special Assistant, followed him out. After a while, he returned.
Ahem, well The CEO had to deal with something urgent, so todays meeting is over. Everyone can leave now.
Everyone was even more in disbelief upon hearing this.
Holy crap, this was truly unbelievable!
Not only did Mr. Cooper break several years of taboo by being the first to answer a phone call during a senior executive meeting, but he also left right after the call, causing the meeting to be abruptly canceled.
What happened to the BOSS today? Does anyone know?
How could we know? But I think it might have to do with a woman.
Really? How do you know?
I heard a woman on the call just now, but I didnt dare get too close, so I couldnt hear clearly.
Could it be that female celebrity from last night?
Who knows? All 1 know is that it must be a woman!

Samuel Mckinley followed Aidan Lucas, pondering Aidans thoughts even though he was Aidans trusted confidant.
Mr. Lucas, where are we going? Samuel asked cautiously in the elevator.
Aidans brows furrowed, his mood extremely sour, To the court.
Court? Samuel exclaimed, then immediately covered his mouth, realizing his outburst.
Mr. Lucas, what are we going to do at the court?
Aidan didnt answer, but only turned his head to give Samuel a deep, heavy look.
I-I talk too muchMr. Lucas, please dont be angry.
Samuels scalp tingled from Aidans gaze, his entire back drenched in cold sweat, knowing that he had disturbed Aidan. He didnt dare ask any more questions, maintaining silence all the way to the courthouse.
Aidan sat in the back seat with his eyes closed, his brows slightly knitted as if he were resting.
Although he seemed to be resting, the words Ellie had said on the phone kept echoing in his mind.
Young Master, I cant stop the Young Lady. She insists on going to court to testify. The Young Lady has only just gotten better not long ago, and there are many people in the courthouse, so there could be conflicts. If something were to happen, it would be terrible!
He initially thought that the caller would be Lily Gray.
He didnt return home last night, and she didnt seem to care.
In a fit of anger, he asked Samuel to invite a female celebrity over on purpose and leaked the news with those photos.
He thought that once Lily saw the report early this morning, she would definitely call him to confront him.
However, she managed to keep her composure until just now, not even sending him a single message.
During the meeting, when he saw the call coming from the villa, he thought she finally couldnt bear it any longer.
But it turned out to be from Ellie.
Thinking about her persistent disregard for him, Aidan felt a surge of unspeakable anger in his heart.
He knew he shouldnt care about her, just like how she didnt care about him.
But when he heard Ellie say that she was already on her way to the courthouse, he couldnt just ignore her like she did with him.
He didnt know what went wrong, but by the time he realized it, he was already in the car going to the courthouse.
Thinking of that hateful, annoying woman, Aidans cold and deep eyes couldnt help but narrow.

At the entrance of the court, Lily Gray, who was about to enter, bumped into Madam Gray, Rowena Gray, and others.
On Lilys side, there were only herself, Mr. Fenton the lawyer, and the lawyers assistant.
On Madam Grays side, aside from herself, Rowena Gray and a large group of people, which included a lawyer, three assistants, and a large group of Gray family relatives, was quite a spectacle. Milly Gray, Rowenas daughter, was also among them.
Whats even more exaggerated was that they had informed the reporters, and behind the Gray family was an even larger group of media personnel with cameras.
With a large entourage, they appeared much more imposing than Lily and her small group of three people..
