Brian had to admit that Emily was very good at saying things to make others feel less guilty.Who would have thought that in just one day, he would discover that he had two younger sisters? Compared to Jennifer, he felt that Emily was more similar to him.It was funny because he had often told himself that his and her faces were similar because they were destined to be husband and wife.“Emily, don't work here anymore, go back to my company, I guarantee Jennifer won't dare to cause trouble for you.” Brian spoke up.“No, I like doing this job.” She shook her head, continuing to wear another pair of nylon gloves to tear up the dried squid.“The environment here is too complicated. And if you don't like working at GE Corporation, I can help you open a fashion store or a large tailor shop. You like fashion design, right?”“Brian...” She stopped, looking straight at his expectant face.“Yes, you say it, I'm listening.”She exhaled and told him that the working environment here was very goo
When night fell, as usual, exactly at seven o'clock, Emily was at the pub. Today, she took a taxi because Kurt had boarded a plane since morning. After changing into her uniform, she quickly started working. A day out with Brian made her feel very comfortable but her legs were a bit tired. “Hello, deputy manager.” She bowed her head when she saw the deputy manager passing by. “Hello, ah, Emily, VIP room number three has just been booked by a customer. Go in there and turn on the air conditioning first. Check if the table or sofa is skewed and fix it. I heard there are a lot of people in their group, about a dozen people.” “Yes.” Fast as a squirrel, Emily ran to VIP room number three and pressed the remote, turning on the air conditioner. Then she adjusted the sofas neatly, checked whether the bathroom was clean or not, and then turned on the karaoke system but kept it on silent mode. “Alright. There are so many people coming, they will probably order a lot of food and wine.” She
After examining, sewing, and bandaging Emily's wound, the doctor called Kevin in and told him and the nurse to take her to the hospital room for further observation because the wound was quite deep so he was afraid she would have a fever in the middle of the night.Through examination, her current physical condition is not very good.“Luckily, it didn't hit her tendon, otherwise she would have had to lie down for several months.” The doctor said with a serious face.“Thank you, doctor.”Kevin bowed his head to say thank you and then pushed Emily out of the emergency room with the nurse. She lay still, not daring to look up at him.The feeling of lying on her back on the stretcher and being dragged away like this made her scared, feeling empty and unsafe.In her head, she was imagining many of the next situations, his questions, and his attitude when they were alone.“The patient will stay in a one-bed VIP room, right?” The nurse confirmed it again because Kevin had suggested it earlie
After a windy and rainy night, the sun gradually appeared, but the cold and dampness still lingered, and did not want to leave.Emily frowned because of the pain coming from the top of her foot. She had forgotten that she was injured and in the hospital, so she moved a bit too hard.Hearing the noise coming from the bathroom door, she reflexively looked in that direction and saw Kevin. He changed back into long pants and a white shirt, neat and nice.“Do you want to go to the bathroom?” He walked closer to her and asked.“I can walk on my own. If I move slightly, the wound doesn't hurt too much.”“Uh. Luckily you didn't have a fever last night. The doctor has allowed you to leave the hospital. You change your clothes and I'll take you home.”After speaking, he immediately went out, giving her space. Last night, he couldn't sleep peacefully because he had to check now and then to see if she had a fever.He thought that the fact that she tricked him, sold the company, and ran away prove
Kurt's trip took longer than expected, it wasn't until Thursday night that he set foot at the airport.During this business trip, some friends took him to get acquainted with the big bosses of companies specializing in importing handicraft products from rattan and bamboo for distribution in their country and to other countries.Their potential customers are cafes, tourist areas, resorts, restaurants, hotels... even houses.The first thing Kurt did when he almost got home was to knock on Emily's motel room door and give her some dumplings he bought on the south side of the city.He heard the deputy manager report what happened in the pub that day, but because he didn't know what Emily's current mood was and whether she wanted someone else to mention that issue, he still didn't ask her.“It smells so good, thank you.” She took the bag of dumplings, smiling brightly, no different from a child being given candy.“Does your leg still hurt?” Kurt looked down at the wound on her foot and ask
On the other side of the phone, Venn sighed in relief. As the person assigned by Kevin to find her whereabouts, how could he not understand his boss's intentions?Now Kevin went there and got drunk. If he listened to Emily and came to pick Kevin up, it would be like he ruined his boss's chance.So, he had to lie even though he was at home and he knew Sara was probably still busy preparing documents for the upcoming important meetings.Emily started biting her lips and then biting her nails, not knowing what to do with this drunk man. If she took him back to her room, she was sure he would stand there every night, as evidenced by the fact that he went to the pub these past few nights.Thinking about it for a while, she decided to take him to the hotel.“Kevin, wake up, you can't sleep here.” She gently shook his shoulder.After a while, he obeyed and sat up, but unfortunately, his whole body was now weak and he had to lean on her.She had to admit that when he was too drunk, he and Dan
Emily thought it would be a few days before Kevin came back to get his bank card, but no, as soon as she walked to the main lobby, she saw him sitting in front of the counter, intently watching the bartender mix the wine.Today, he is wearing a t-shirt, not a shirt anymore, he looks a few years younger.He seemed to completely shed the image of a noble president to become a young man who went out to drink a few cocktails to relieve stress.- Give back to you. – Emily put the black card down on the counter and said.As soon as she was about to walk away, he grabbed her wrist, held her back, asked her to bring him a grilled squid, and then let go of her hand very quickly.After coming here a few times, he naturally turned into a super VIP customer of the pub.Although the amount of wine he ordered the day before was taken back by the pub and was not charged because he ordered ten but only drank one.However, just now he asked them to take the remaining nine bottles of wine to his car an
Emily tightened the hem of her coat, trying to calm herself. For a moment, she thought about calling Kevin, but reason stopped her.She knew clearly that if she proactively contacted him today to ask him to help her, it would be like giving him the green light to come closer to her.While trying to continue booking a taxi on the app, she suddenly heard footsteps and when she raised her head, she saw a man. He gradually moved closer and looked at her like looking at prey.Her whole body trembled, and her legs gradually stepped backward. This place was too deserted, the doors were closed, and there was no hope of anyone appearing to save her.“Girl, how much does it cost at one time?” The man stuck out his tongue, licked around his lips, and asked.“No... I'm not... I'm not...” She couldn't speak because she was too scared.“Why not? You don't like me, right?”After saying that, the man immediately rushed towards the girl who was trembling and hugging her body.However, just as he grabb
