Stuart was sitting in his office while he was talking to Mr. Sampson. He stopped reading his documents instantly. Is she disappointed because he's not there? Maybe Mr. Sampson misunderstood.
She told him not to interfere with her business. He assumed that she never wanted to see him again.
What Mr. Sampson just told him really touched his heart. Maybe there was hope, Stuart thought.
"Mr. Yates?" Mr. Sampson thought he couldn't hear him so, he asked again.
"I heard what you said," Stuart said peacefully, and then he hung up the phone. He stood there, thinking and found himself starting to feel a little better. He closed the file and stood up, grabbed his jacket, and started to walk out.
His assistant Ivan was in the office with Stuart. When he saw Stuart about to leave, Ivan stood up immediately.
"Mr. CEO," he said. "You are leaving early today." Stuart was leaving early, and Ivan didn't look very pleased. He was hesitating whether he should tell Stuart something.
