When I came home sneezing, Benjamin was already waiting for me there.

On the table in front of him were the photos that the paparazzi gave me that day, and he looked at me with an expression that asked me to give a detailed explanation.

"Why didn't you give the photos to me?"

My brain stunned for half a second, and I stammered to look for an excuse, "I'm afraid..."

"You're afraid I will not hire you anymore after you give me this, right?" Benjamin interrupted me.

He was so straightforward that I felt embarrassed.

I smiled embarrassingly, thinking about how to make up for myself.

But Benjamin didn't give me a chance to say anything. "You've been worrying too much. Closie already knew what kind of person Zachary was. She just didn't want to break up with him."

Huh?

Benjamin showed a smile uglier than crying. "I was lost to such a person. Do you think it's ridiculous?"

I nodded and then shook my head. "Ms. Kloss is ridiculous, not you. She was ignorant of judging people. Don't worry. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. Ms. Kloss will be back to you sooner or later as long as you persevere in putting in an effort for her."

"How do you know that?"

"Because you hired me, I definitely won't let you spend your money for nothing."

I still had this professional ethic.

I promised solemnly, "Look, Ms. Kloss has opened up to you today and revealed the biggest wound in her heart to you. What does it mean? It means that she is biased toward you again. Don't worry. Just listen to me. Ms. Kloss will be in the bag to you soon."

Benjamin fixed his eyes on me, with an emotion I couldn't understand.

I wondered if he wanted to kiss me again at such a dark moment in his life.

That would be too scum.

After all, a second before, he was still sad that Closetta didn't like him!

Fortunately, Benjamin didn't kiss me in the end. He just smiled and seemed to be extremely tired. "With an employee like you, I have nothing to worry about."

19

The next day, Twitter Top Trends was occupied by photos of Benjamin sending Closetta home late at night.

One of them was Benjamin opening the door for Closetta, and he happened to be looking eye-to-eye with Closetta.

That was a normal gaze for me.

However, the netizens said they could see from it that Benjamin's deep affection could not be hidden.

Then, they concluded that "Juliette was a joke."

Of course, I couldn't disappoint the netizens, so I almost immediately booked a ticket to Harfush.

I arranged for myself to go to Harfush for vacation, and at the same time, I also set Benjamin to stand Closetta up to pursue me.

"Only in this way can Closetta completely know that you, Benjamin, are no longer someone she can call at any time. If she wants you, she must take you seriously," I said while patting Benjamin on the shoulder before leaving.

Benjamin was very obedient this time and immediately followed me to Harfush.

I knew it should be the last time I showed up as Benjamin's girlfriend.

So, I was going to arrange something that I, as Juliette, really wanted to do with my boyfriend.

In fact, it was just a matter of walking hand in hand on the street, shopping, and eating.

I even arranged for Benjamin, who had mysophobia, to eat grilled skewers with me at a dirty roadside stall.

Although Benjamin was very disgusted, he still sat down.

It had to be said that Benjamin, as a boss, didn't have no advantage at all.

For example, the former secretary said he liked drinking ice water. There was a time I forgot to add ice to his water. I was afraid he would get angry, so I casually fooled him by telling him drinking warm water was good for his health, and he accepted it easily.

For instance, he used to work all night regularly. I didn't want to stay up with him, so I advised him not to stay up late, which was not good for his health. As expected, he never works overtime beyond 12 a.m. since then.

He obviously disliked grilled skewers now, but I wanted to eat, so I asked him to accompany me to eat it for once, then he would sit down, though reluctantly.

In fact, as a nobleman, he was sometimes easy to serve.

Thinking of his advantages, I couldn't help but feel a little sad and reluctant to let him go.

I would definitely think of him in the middle of some night after I left him completely.

Thanks him for fulfilling my dream of having a perfect boyfriend. I would never have a better-looking boyfriend than him in my life.

Or, I would not have a boyfriend anymore.

This night, we were both drunk.

After getting drunk, Benjamin received a call from Closetta again.

I decided for him and declined the call. I told him, "Believe me, don't answer tonight. When you go back tomorrow, she will become your girlfriend completely."

Moreover, I took the opportunity to ask Benjamin to pay me more money. I said I helped him accomplish his wish that he hadn't fulfilled for years in just two months.

"You only give me 90 thousand dollars. Don't you feel guilty? You have to give me at least 1.5 million dollars."

"Why do you want so much money?"

"Buy a mansion, retire, live comfortably, eat and shop, and hold Bonaventure in my arms while counting money for the rest of my life." I counted on my fingers when speaking.

"Okay."

Huh?

When I woke up the next day, Bonaventure, no, Benjamin, was no longer around.

He probably went to look for Closetta.

I couldn't figure out whether he did promise to give me 1.5 million dollars or it was a dream.

I turned on my phone and was about to check the transfer, but it turned out that I found out I was on the trending topic again! Again!

This time, someone reported that my original name was Matilda Larouche. At 12 years old, I had a crush on Benjamin when I was only in Grade 7, but I was rejected. After being stimulated, I changed my name and went for plastic surgery, lurking beside Benjamin...

It sounded like this person was a pervert.

But the perverted plastic weirdo mentioned in the tweet was indeed me.

I knew it was the fight back of Closetta.

Anyway, it was time to say goodbye.

    Author: Xin Shang Ren 1"Since you want to live off someone, why didn't you come to me?"Gilbert leaned on the sofa, lifting his head. From this angle, I could only see his exquisite chin and his open collar.His collarbone was a sight for sore eyes.I swallowed hard. Before I could speak, a debit card was thrown at my face."The password is my birthday."I held the card in my hand apprehensively. "So, what's your birthday date?"Gilbert was silent for a long time before he sighed."If you can't remember, just wait and starve to death!"I quickly got up from the ground and opened my yearbook. I had solemnly put Gilbert's information on the first page.He, too, left a message for me before graduation, like all my other classmates. His handwriting was beautiful, but the message wasn't very pleasant.[I hope that you would become smarter after graduation. If that won't happen, I hope you'd at least become prettier.]Every single word in that message revealed his arrogan

    3I would not have minded."Then, let's start working from today onward."I need to be conscious as I was someone who pulled strings to get this job. I could not slack off, and the work from the boss had to be done well.Gilbert's car was not luxurious. He was not a person who kept a high profile, and he did not like the feeling of being coveted by others. Rather than showing off, he pursued comfort even more. However, despite that, when I was in the passenger seat, I still had the fantasy of being just like Cinderella, who was sitting in a pumpkin carriage.The sensation of sitting on a leather seat was so good. Moreover, its curves perfectly matched the lines of a person's back. I could not help but admire the originality of the design.As expected, it was a car that I would not have been able to afford even if I had worked hard all my life. When I thought that my hard work would only result in my boss changing to a new car the next year, I immediately wanted to break the wheel

    4I fell asleep in a daze, and it was a good sleep. When I got up with messy hair, Gilbert was already dressed in his suit and ready to go out.He looked indifferent—nothing like his weird self who came into my room last night.He threw me a piece of bread. "You got up too late. Eat some bread first."The bread had jam on it. It was my favorite watermelon flavor.Yvonne arrived at the company earlier than us. She had dark circles underneath her eyes. It seemed that she didn't sleep well last night.When she saw Gilbert, she immediately ran over to him with a pile of documents in her arms."I have some questions about the upcoming project proposal."After saying that, Yvonne glanced at me."Ms. Olsen, would you like to go back to your workstation first?"Under her gaze, I could only open Gilbert's office door and get out swiftly.Yvonne was probably in despair, but she looked calm. After Gilbert sat down, she questioned some unreasonable aspects of the business proposal and p

    5If a company wanted to bid for a piece of land, it had to get in some officials' good graces. Gilbert especially spent a lot of money on obtaining a piece of jade to give to a certain someone's wife. I was also attending the banquet with him.I did not get close to Gilbert at the company. I wanted to avoid gossip. I also could not tolerate the attention of everyone else in the company. There was also a lot of discussion in the office about we were not compatible with each other, which likely came from contempt.Only Xenia knew something since Gilbert did request a favor from her. Therefore, she would occasionally look at me with a meaningful gaze. However, she was sly. Most of the time, Xenia would give me an extra slice of cake or snacks, and defend me subtly. Then, she would hint at me to tell Gilbert good things about her through her expression.Meanwhile, Yvonne seemed to be absorbed in her work, so she merely nodded when she saw me. Occasionally, she would talk to Gilbert ab

    Author: Xia Xiao Qi One day, I drank too much, and I regarded my serious and abstinent boss, Joaquin Salvatore, as my first crush.When I woke up, I asked nervously, "Yesterday... We..."Joaquin replied, "What? Ms. Jobling, are you not going to be responsible for it?"I thought I was doomed and would be fired, but Joaquin said that he would give me a week's leave to rest.A week later, he circled me in a corner and asked, "I gave you a week. Have you figured out how to be responsible for me?"I was confused.1I had been Joaquin's secretary for six years. Many people said that I went through a back door. Otherwise, I would not have been promoted from an ordinary secretary to a personal secretary.I had always ignored the gossip because I felt that the truth would prove one's innocence. I could stay with Joaquin for so many years mainly because of my ability.Nonetheless, I did not expect that I would really sleep with him one day.I really did not want to sleep with h

    6I could not remember how many years it had been since I last had a break to relax. Throughout the years of being Joaquin's personal secretary, I worked overtime during every holiday. I was even on standby during long holiday weekends.Since a few months ago, I had been asking Joaquin to give me a few days off and let me have a good rest. He had never approved my leave. Now, he finally had a conscience.It seemed that it was worth sleeping with him.It was good timing for a rest. I did not know how to face him after what had happened. I could use the leave to think about things.The first thing I wanted to do during my leave was to lie down and sleep at home.Since I suffered so much last night, the first thing I did after reaching home and delegating my work was mute my phone, lie on the bed, and fall asleep.After falling asleep, I had a dream. In the dream, I was in a dreamy church. There was a man kneeling in front of me, proposing to me, but I could not see his face clearl

    11The restaurant where Joaquin and the others were eating was a little far away from here. It took me half an hour to drive there.When Yuri saw me arrive, it was as if he saw his savior. He immediately came forward to greet me. "Yulissa, you're finally here.""Where is Mr. Salvatore?" I asked."In the private room. He drank too much and is now sitting there, refusing to leave." Yuri led me to the private room where they were eating.Everyone had left, and Joaquin was the only one remaining.I realized why Yuri was so helpless after seeing Joaquin sit on the sofa in a trance, like a lost child with an innocent face and hazy eyes."Mr. Salvatore." Yuri walked over and patted Joaquin on the shoulder as Yuri called Joaquin softly.Joaquin shoved Yuri's hand off outright. "Where is Yulissa? I want Yulissa to pick me up."I had never seen Joaquin like this in all my years of working alongside him. I really wanted to take a picture of him with my phone.However, at the thought of

    15Anyway, there was a more important matter. I asked seriously, "Lionel, are you sure you're with me because you like me and not because of your grandfather?"Lionel looked at me as if I were an idiot. He furrowed his brows slightly with an unhappy look."Of course."His words were concise but the meaning was clear.His voice was not loud but enough to make my heart pound like a drum.My breathing hitched and I couldn't help but stare at him. I turned red from my earlobes to my neck, and he turned his face away and stopped looking at me.It was then that I realized that Lionel also gets shy sometimes."Got it, so I'll go work now!" I said haughtily before sitting back in my seat and discreetly stealing glances at Lionel across from me.The group chat was buzzing with messages, and I quickly scanned through them.[Ms. Barrett has made Mr. Graham happy! Hooray!][Yay! Thank you, Ms. Barrett!][I'll sing you the "Thank You" song!]I always thought that gossip was more common

    11That night, I received an exquisitely packaged gift and when I opened it, it was a stunning red haute couture dress.It was from Lionel, and the accompanying card read, [Wear it to the party tomorrow.]I was speechless.I guess I was supposed to thank him.Morgan excitedly felt the texture of the dress and praised it endlessly."Ella, you have fair skin, so red looks good on you. Lionel has good taste! He's not as stupid as you make him out to be."How could I have such an idiotic bestie who liked this kind of red color that even my mother wouldn't wear?Of course, I could only vent to her, and the next day I still wore the festive red dress to the banquet.Lionel looked at me for a long time before looking away as his ears turned unusually red again.I was wearing high heels. Swaying and trying to avoid falling, I had to stick close to him while holding onto his arm tightly.Lionel's body stiffened even more, and I reminded him softly."Why are you more nervous than me?

    8When I woke up in the sterilized hospital room, I saw Miranda looking at me anxiously."She's awake, she's awake! Lio, your wife is awake!"When I heard that, I almost choked on my breath.Lionel's eyes were dark, and his expression was indifferent.Miranda noticed that he didn't say anything, so she patted him on the shoulder anxiously."Lio, you're really something! Young people should indulge themselves when they want to. Holding back for too long can lead to problems. Look at Ella. Her nose is already bleeding."I had just woken up and was still a bit dizzy. For a moment, I didn't understand the connection between indulgence and nosebleeds.By the time I figured that Miranda was talking about sex, she had already arranged a presidential suite in a five-star hotel for me and Lionel.It was a sea-view room with floor-to-ceiling windows that looked out onto a stunning sunset vista.My legs were shaking. It was my first time sharing a hotel room with a man, and it was even

    4As a competent secretary, wherever the boss was, I would be there.If my boss wanted to check out the snowy scenery, I would accompany him to the outdoor balcony to enjoy the white snow.Of course, the boss sat while I stood."Don't you have anything to tell me?"My heart tightened. Did he guess?The check in my pocket instantly turned into a hot potato. After all, the money belonged to the Graham family.After brainstorming, I recalled all the novels and TV dramas I had read and watched. Was it a trap set by Lionel and Miranda? Were they waiting for me to fall into it?I smiled awkwardly and said, "Mr. Graham, you're truly brilliant. This check was given to me by Mrs. Graham, and she asked me to take good care of you. I never intended to embezzle these 150 thousand dollars. Even if you didn't mention it, I would have spent every penny of the money on you."I endured the pain in my heart and handed him the check.Lionel lightly tugged at the corners of his mouth, revealing

He was forced to go on blind dates by his family with these beautiful and excellent girls from good families.I didn't know how I parted with Adelia in the end. When I returned home alone, it was dark already. I buried myself in the quilt and stuffed myself for a while until Shaun called me.I didn't answer.I just sent a message to tell him that I was tired and would like to have a rest.Shaun didn't say anything more. He only texted me to have a good rest and didn't come to me after.Looking at the phone with a black screen, the gap between Shaun and me that I deliberately ignored seemed to vaguely appear.Shoot!I didn't want to think about it anymore. I just want to sleep.The next day, I went to Palmer Group to report for my duty.While filling in the form at the front desk, I saw Shaun coming down with people surrounding him.Shaun was so dazzling and outstanding.When Shaun's gaze was about to shift in my direction,

    7That day, Shaun talked a lot. And I finally realized, after spending so much time with him, Shaun had gained a special place in my heart.Then, Shaun and I became a couple just like that.The first thing that Shaun wanted to do was to teach Adelia a lesson after being in a relationship with me. Yet, I stopped him. I didn't want our relationship to be made public for the time being, and I planned to tell Adelia once I graduated.Nonetheless, I had not made our relationship public until then. Shaun accused me several times of not publicly acknowledging him as my boyfriend and forcing him to become a jerk who dared not tell people about his relationship with his girlfriend.I had no words.I just realized what an awful person I was.Especially on the night of graduation, I was drunk again after attending a gratitude dinner with Adelia.The last scene I remembered was Shaun pressing me against the wall and kissing me."Emma, what are you thinking about?

    4The weak couldn't win against the strong. Of course, I couldn't go against Shaun.He dragged me into the mall with a clear target in mind. After a while, Shaun stopped at the entrance of a shop.I raised my head, and an alarm blared in my mind. I immediately understood what Shaun meant when he said he was going to shop with me.Ha.Men.I was certain that men like Shaun, who appeared to be composed and reliable, were actually seducers.Looking at his perfect side profile, I remembered the scene when I first met Shaun.I was in my sophomore year at that time. After hanging out for a whole year during freshman year, Adelia and I established a strong relationship and became best friends.One day, Adelia asked me to accompany her home. When I saw her acting like a thief when she was just going home, I was puzzled.Adelia told me that her uncle was at home that day and that he was the person she feared the most in their family.He was serious and solemn, and only a glance from
