Chapter 155: I think the role may not be suitable for you
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56"Okay, do you need me to take you back?"
"No, thanks."
As Eranthe passed by her, just as Amanda's disdainful expression hadn't faded, Eranthe suddenly turned back.
"Miss. Churchill, is this how you usually treat people when you're with Mr. Jones?"
"What?" Amanda was puzzled.
Shrugging, Eranthe said, "I was just curious, so I asked. Do you always gossip with a few female employees in the company's busy corridors, regardless of the situation?"
Amanda's face turned ugly, "Miss. Taylor, what are you talking about?"
"It's okay. As a 25-year-old woman, I just wanted to give Miss. Churchill some advice. Your job represents that you will encounter people from different levels. If you label clients and speak without restraint, maybe you won't even be able to handle being a junior employee. This is advice from a senior."
Even a fool knows that trouble comes from the mouth. If Amanda, following Morris, still doesn't understand this, talki

Where could she go without being laughed at, and which leader would take her in?A graduate of a prestigious university, with a wealthy family background, she had always been an honor student. Now, society was slapping her directly in the face, leaving her bewildered.Entering Rodriguez Group had made her family proud, boosting her status in the marriage market. If she resigned from Rodriguez Group, where could she find a company better than this? And all for Eranthe, who got in through connections?Amanda couldn't accept it. She stood in a deadlock with Morris.On the other side, Eranthe came out of the restroom and saw Colin standing there. She quickly retreated upon noticing the bustling surroundings.Colin found it amusing and walked towards her with large strides."What are you doing? This is the ladies' room!" Eranthe whispered, reminding him.Coincidentally, other female employees exiting the restroom were stunned to see Colin.

Someone familiar with him, like Frank, would surely know that this was a thoughtful gesture.Eranthe huffed, "If you continue like this, I'll leave immediately. I don't want to end up in gossip magazines with you."Colin raised an eyebrow, looking at the camera. The gossiping security guard in the monitoring room quickly shifted his gaze, as if caught doing something."They won't send it out, and no one will come in. This elevator is exclusively for my use," Colin assured.The elevator reached the top floor. Colin straightened his suit jacket, and Eranthe, her smile erased by the recent event, followed him. However, her attention was quickly captured by Colin's domain.It was the nerve center of the entire Rodriguez Group.People were rushing around, phones were ringing non-stop, and the employees, upon seeing Colin, stood up to greet him, not sparing a glance for Eranthe.She followed Colin into the office. A secretary brought in cof
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 158: Did you paint them?
Colin wouldn't treat a female employee differently just because she was a woman. In his view, work was work, and no one was exempt. If an old employee made a mistake, the consequences would be even more severe. Moreover, she was just an intern assistant. If her appearance and attitude were caught by Colin, she might not even make it through the internship.Little did Amanda know that this statement hit right where it hurt. Wasn't she afraid of this?The female secretary who had just spoken to her realized it. So, Amanda offended Mr. Rodriguez's woman?Her gaze shifted, and Amanda blushed, unsure of what to do."What's going on? Are you facing some difficulties?"Lunchtime was the perfect time for conversations, as everyone had submitted their tasks to Colin in the morning and had some free time now.Amanda dared not speak, just shaking her head.The female secretary said, "What's Mr. Rodriguez's girlfriend like? I didn't get a good lo

She took a sharp breath because she never thought Colin would be an artist, especially considering her own appreciation level; it didn't match him at all.The colors in the paintings were vivid and rich. They say that painting can represent a person's true thoughts, and Colin, such a person, unexpectedly had an interior full of vibrant colors, like a volcanic eruption.Colin casually said, "I occasionally paint when I'm annoyed." It was a habit he had retained since his youth and had not changed over the years.Eranthe almost forgot that his background meant he couldn't be someone without talents. It wasn't just about academics; his other interests and hobbies were definitely under the guidance of renowned teachers."Do you like it?" Colin looked at her as she kept staring at one painting."I'm impressed. I never knew you could paint so well. If you didn't inherit Rodriguez Group, would you choose to be an artist?""I can't be an artist. I h
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 160: I want to apologize
Colin nibbled on her ear.Eranthe was speechless. "How long have you known me, and you're already thinking about me every time?"Colin took the painting from her hand and lifted her up. "I'll try to be quick. It's lunch break anyway. In the afternoon, you can continue refining the proposals you submitted."Regardless of Eranthe's protests, Colin remained the same, smelling the fragrance on her neck, slow yet firm, occupying every inch of her...The indoor temperature was adjusted to the most comfortable setting.After covering her with a blanket, Colin turned off the alarm clock, changed into another suit, and when he opened the door, the lunch on the table had been cleared away, and the office was filled with fresh air.Morris, seemingly oblivious to everything, handed him some documents."Notify everyone that the meeting will start in 5 minutes, and instruct them not to disturb her in the office.""Understood, Mr. Rodriguez."
One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me Chapter 161: No matter what you do, I won't accept it
Her own job was in a mess.Amanda didn't expect that she would come to apologize and be criticized for not having the ability before stepping down. Without saying a word, Amanda turned and left.Eranthe wasn't surprised; after all, such people were common in companies, especially in hotels where all sorts of extraordinary characters were encountered. Rich people who threw tantrums just to get a discount were not uncommon.However, with Amanda's interruption, Eranthe's thoughts had drifted far away.When Colin returned after the meeting, Eranthe was playing a game. She didn't even look up, relying on the familiarity between them to know it was him."Bringing you to the company, and you're just here to play games?" Colin took away her phone.Eranthe didn't play often, only when she needed some excitement to stay alert. She asked, "Are you done being busy?""Yeah." Colin directly took her laptop. "Have you revised it?""Yes." Eran

Just then, the dishes were served, and the daily menu was always different. Colin ordered Tom Yum soup, which Eranthe enjoyed."Now we have some time before the dishes arrive. Want to take a stroll?""Where to?""You can hear performances in the garden at night, and there are river lanterns."He extended his hand, leading her outside. Indeed, in the concealed garden, there was a ready-made stage on the stone bridge surrounding the lake. Actors performing traditional Thai Khon dance were on stage, and many people had come out to watch. Under the eaves, some people were embracing, and they all seemed to be influential figures from ASSYRIA.Colin led Eranthe to a secluded corner."This place is really beautiful," Eranthe said, poking at the river lanterns on the water with a stick."If you like it, I can take you to other places next time.""Can I release a river lantern too?"Colin snapped his fingers, and someone immediat

Christopher's boss was puzzled, "Is there a problem somewhere? Don't worry; I'll have someone check on it.""Alright." Christopher looked at the expensive dishes on the table.This meal, with the addition of wine, cost at least hundreds of thousands. If the contract didn't go through, it would be like pouring money down the drain.Ana, feeling uncomfortable, whispered to Christopher beside her, "Could it be Morris?""Him? Why would he do that? We haven't offended him."Christopher really didn't understand why Ana would think that. However, he didn't press further at the moment. After all, they had already ordered the meal; they had to finish it.When there was no one around, Christopher finally asked, "Shouldn't you explain this to me?"Ana wiped her mouth and fabricated a perfect explanation, embellishing the situation a bit. "Clearly, I helped her, and now she's turning her back on me. So, I'm worried she might have given Colin a ba

Eranthe replied, "If I had no conscience, I wouldn't give you medicine to take."Colin turned his head in frustration.Morris arrived promptly upon hearing that Colin was ill, and Eranthe happened to be handing over her shift to him."Follow the instructions on the medicine label for him. I've prepared hot water. Just remember to close the door when you leave," Eranthe said, aware that she had only half an hour for her commute and couldn't linger.Morris nodded repeatedly but then noticed the deathly stare from his boss."Miss Taylor.""Yes?""Today, I also need to take a day off with Mr. Rodriguez. Could you please take care of him?""Today's schedule is packed for me. I can't look after him," Eranthe replied, well aware of Morris's tactics. His loyalty was clearly with Colin.Morris was quick on his feet. "Miss Taylor, my mom is coming to Assyria City today. I was planning to take the afternoon off anyway. Mr. Rodrigue

Colin raised an eyebrow in disappointment, then spread out the sheets and lay down with the cat.But clearly, he couldn't sleep. The scent of the woman still lingered in the air, constantly tempting him and making him feel uncomfortably hot.He decided to take off his shirt, his long legs hanging off the sofa because it was too small for him to stretch out fully.Every time he closed his eyes, he pictured her exceptionally enchanting appearance.Inside the house, Eranthe tossed and turned, feeling like her territory had been invaded. She regretted not ignoring him.Why was this so troublesome? If only she had ignored him, she would have fallen asleep by now.After lying in bed for half an hour without feeling drowsy, she scratched her head, feeling the need to use the bathroom. But the bathroom was outside the room...What if that dog suddenly pounced on her?If he dared, she would punch him.Eranthe silently vowed, lift

Eranthe: ...She really wanted to smash this guy with the water bottle."Go home!"If she kept listening to him, she might start feeling a little soft-hearted.Colin smiled subtly and followed her casually, like a large dog.On the way home, Eranthe repeated multiple times not to take advantage of any opportunity to enter her home.Colin agreed readily, and when it came time to open the door, she insisted on watching him enter before she unlocked it, like she was guarding against a thief.Colin asked, "Are you really sure you don't need me to escort you home?""Mr. Rodriguez, I'm already home.""What if someone unwelcome shows up at your place?"Eranthe laughed, "Then I'll call the police. It's scarier letting you in. Maybe you should worry more about whether there's a headless ghost under your bed at night, or someone staring at you from outside your window."After saying this, Eranthe watched with satisfa

"..." Eranthe concluded that communicating with him was indeed asking for trouble.Eranthe opened the door to leave, and Colin followed.Eranthe cursed inwardly. She had let her guard down. It seemed Colin had taken advantage of the moment to change his clothes, and now he was accompanying her to eat."Mr. Rodriguez, someone of your stature shouldn't be playing the role of a tracker," Eranthe remarked."No, of course not," Colin assured her."Let's hope you stick to that," Eranthe responded skeptically."Agreed."The two entered the elevator. "Where are you headed, Mr. Rodriguez?""Depends on my mood.""..." What a watertight answer! Depending on his mood meant wherever she was going, he would follow!The elevator quickly arrived, and as luck would have it, they encountered the elderly lady downstairs again."Oh dear, finished your meal, young couple? Going out for a stroll?"Eranthe smiled awkwardly

Wasn't he just trying to make her insist he stay?"Forget it, sit down and eat. It's like I'm bullying you," she muttered.Colin moved closer. "Miss Taylor, are you inviting me?"He glanced at his watch. "During my working hours, I'm not allowed to eat with clients, but if a client requests it, I can provide additional services.""What additional services? Dishwashing?""A deep kiss.""Eh?" Eranthe gave him a deadpan smile. "You're fired.""My employer isn't Miss Taylor, so you don't have the authority for that, but you can complain.""And the solution to complaints—is it also a kiss?"Colin remained serious, adopting an austere expression. "Miss Taylor, I'm here for part-time work, not to sell myself."Eranthe couldn't stomach her meal after that.“Colin, are you even serious? Should I start a fundraiser to buy you a mirror?” Eranthe retorted, still seething.This guy had the audac

Then, as if in disbelief, the doorbell rang."I'm sorry, Miss Taylor, it seems the nutritionist has arrived. We've already paid, so it would be awkward to send him away."Eranthe: ...Why did you even schedule this?!It's just stirring up trouble for no reason!She didn't want to take it out on innocent people, so she hung up the phone and went to open the door, expecting to see a lady but finding a tall man at the door instead.Eranthe burst out laughing, "Mr. Rodriguez.""When did you start moonlighting as a nutritionist?" Eranthe crossed her arms, eager to hear what else he could come up with.Colin raised an eyebrow, "Just bored after work, making some extra cash."He gestured to come inside, leaving Eranthe speechless. She was also worried about leaving the door open and the cat suddenly darting out.Once Colin successfully entered, it was just like before—efficiently grabbing onions, ginger, and garlic

Most likely, Colin was just there as a witness the whole time.Eranthe adjusted her position, leaning closer to the car window, and closed her eyes again.When she woke up once more, it was to the sound of honking outside the window.She suddenly looked as night fell, turning her head abruptly to meet the man's dark gaze.She jumped slightly, and Colin said casually, "Awake?"Eranthe checked the time and realized it was already 7:40. She must have slept quite a while in the car. "Why didn't you wake me?" she asked.She opened the car door. "Thank you for driving me back."As she picked up her bag to head home, she noticed Colin was also getting out of the car.Eranthe halted her steps. "Are you planning to come to my house?"Colin admitted nonchalantly, "Yes."Eranthe was incredulous. "Mr. Rodriguez, don't play dumb. Wasn't I clear enough?"Colin replied, "Shouldn't a pursuer safely escort you to the doorst

Alexis wasn't under Mr. Hill Vice President Hill's jurisdiction, so he didn't react much either.After the meeting dispersed, Eranthe clearly noticed several leaders looking displeased.Just as Mr. Hill Vice President Hill was giving Eranthe instructions about which projects to prioritize next, Eranthe was taking notes with her pen when she saw the hotel manager rushing over to a group of leaders."What's going on?" Eranthe watched as the leaders headed towards the coffee shop, and shortly after, police cars arrived.It seemed they were trying to contain the situation and were ordered to return to the city promptly.Eranthe had already checked out and didn't want to get involved in others' affairs. She hoped to catch a ride with Mr. Hill Vice President Hill, but then she saw him being called away as well."Forget about it, let's all go back," Eranthe muttered to herself as she turned around, but then Colin's phone call came through.S

"Okay, if you really end up with Eranthe, I'll learn from you.""Does Oriel really want to be with you? Just flattering yourself," Colin, in a bad mood, retorted sharply.Frank sighed, "Ah, men without a sex life are truly terrifying."Colin ignored him.From behind the water feature, voices could be heard.Although not loud, with few guests around, the conversation was clear."That woman is really pretty, almost like those female celebrities on TV.""Were you trained with her before? Do you know what she's like? Is she easy to get? With looks like hers, she must have plenty of suitors.""I heard she has some connection with that Miller family whose son, Eric Miller, dated her for a few months. They've probably split up now, and there are quite a few guys chasing her in the company.""I think with a woman like her, you could win her over with a bit of money. Just a few dates and you could sleep with her.""Alexis,
