Chapter 510
Work was important, and so was the future.
But compared to Brayden, neither mattered.
His family was dying. As his wife, she should go back with him.
Brayden gripped her hand tightly and his heart was filled with emotions.
The light in his eyes was even brighter.
She cared about him.
He was more important than her work.
Soon, Brayden and Belle went back to their apartment to pack their luggage, while Olivia went back to the company to ask Preston for leave in person.
Although it was still a week before the release of the new products, she did not know how long they would stay and whether she could make it back before the release. Everything was unknown.
She couldn't make it clear to Preston over the phone, so she had to tell Preston face to face.
Fortunately, Preston was at the company. After Olivia hung up, she went straight to Preston's office.
Preston frowned after hanging up on Olivia.
Olivia asked if he was in the company and said she had something to tell him.
Her tone was a little solemn as if something important had happened.
He was nervous and worried.
Soon, there was a knock on the door, and Olivia's voice sounded. "Mr. Smith."
"Come in."
Olivia opened the door and came in.
Preston walked over. "What's the matter? Is it urgent?"
Preston asked directly, his eyes full of concern.
Olivia nodded and said briefly, "One of Brayden's family members is dying. We have to go back now."
Preston understood and was relieved.
"Okay, you go back. You don't have to worry about work. I'll manage it."
Olivia looked at him earnestly. "Mr. Smith, thank you."
Preston smiled. "I am not doing this only for you. I would do this for any good employee."
Olivia smiled. "OK, Mr. Smith, I'll go back to the Design Department and talk to Grace."
She didn't have to say too much to someone who understood her.
She knew this, and so did Preston.
"Go."
When Olivia left the president's office, Preston's eyes were filled with thoughts.
Olivia didn't say who this relative was, but since Brayden and Olivia were going back, this relative was probably very close.
And if that was the case...
Preston frowned.
He was worried that it was Wade.
If it was Wade, Everett would definitely go back.
Thinking of this, Preston couldn't help but worry.
Brayden, Olivia, Everett, and Melody.
He didn't know what would happen if these four people got together.
Olivia went back to the Design Department. Grace had finished lunch and returned to the department. When she saw Olivia coming back, she was surprised. "Olivia, how did you..." She was pointing to the outside. She was asking why was Olivia back so soon since she had been to the airport.
Did she ride on a rocket?
Olivia said, "One of Brayden's family members is dying. We have to go back immediately. You continue to do the work here."
"What!"
How could this be?
Olivia looked at her who was in a daze and smiled. "Things happen."
Then she gave her a plan she had made this morning.
"I made it this morning. I've sorted out some details. Take a good look."
Grace immediately took it and looked at her, reluctant to let her leave. "Olivia, when will you be back?"
She had only seen Olivia for a few hours.
Olivia knew that Grace liked to be with her just like Max. She smiled and touched her face. "I'll be back as soon as I'm done, okay?"
Grace pouted. "OK. I just hope you can get back before the day of the new product launch."

Olivia must want this too.
Olivia curved her lips. "I'll try."
Olivia took a taxi back to the apartment, and Brayden and Belle almost finished packing their bags.
But when the luggage was packed, they took Max with them.
There was no one at home, and they had to leave for a few days, so they brought Max back.
Soon they went to the airport and returned to the Capital City.
