After a week, I went back to work because my body was less painful.Although Brian texted and told me to rest at home and stay healthy, I felt bored when I stayed at home.Moreover, Harold comes to my house every day to keep an eye on me, making me feel like I'm wasting his time.As long as I can go to work, he will believe that I am completely fine. And most importantly, I want to meet Brian. I'm the one who has no future.“Are you well enough to go to work?”The voice suddenly sounded behind me but didn't startle me anymore because I glanced at the door just now and saw him entering the room.“I'm fine, thanks for taking care of me, director.”The moment I raised my head, I saw Brian's face was unsightly, gloomy, disgruntled, and unhappy. On the right corner of his forehead, there was still a white bandage.Why is his face so unsightly? Is he trying to attract bad fortune?“When it's just the two of us, don't call me director like that anymore.” He lowered his voice and said with a
After shaking hands with the two of them, Brian's gaze and beautiful hand moved to me.I had no choice but to hold out my hand for him to hold. He suddenly squeezed my hand, causing me to open my eyes wide and look straight at him.“Hello, director.”“Hello.” He smiled and slowly let go of my hand.I thought I just needed to say hello like that, but I didn't expect Brian to invite all three of us to his table to have a meal together because everyone knew each other, anyway.I hoped Richard would decline the invitation but in the end, he was persuaded by a guy named Brian.So the three of us followed Brian to a long row of tables that were connected by many short tables.After the introduction, everyone sat down and had a meal together.This restaurant is so biased. They saw that this table was crowded with customers, so they served enthusiastically and quickly. It only took a few minutes for the food to be brought to the table, unlike just now, Richard and I had to wait for a long tim
I couldn't let Richard stand out there forever, so after a while, I tried to stop crying, dried my face, and walked out.Seeing me open the gate, his gloomy face brightened up. The yellow light penetrated the darkness, clearly illuminating the features on his face. He has returned to the look I once knew.“Bella.”“Maybe too much work has put both you and me in a bad mood. I'm okay. Go home and rest, you have to go to the company tomorrow.” I took a deep breath and said.“Don't be angry with me anymore. I'm wrong. I will control myself.”“I'm not angry. Wait until I sell a few apartments and then we can go somewhere with Caily for a few days.”“Aren't you working as Brian's secretary?”I shook my head, smiled slightly, and then told Richard that I had returned to my position as a salesperson.I could see the joy and excitement in his deep eyes.“Okay. But we don't necessarily wait for you to sell a few apartments. I can pay all the expenses.” He raised his hand to brush away the stray
At exactly seven o'clock in the evening, I was present at the gate of Brian's villa. Although he will fly at ten o'clock at night, he told me to come here a little early.Maybe he wanted to tell me a few things, such as which rooms I could enter, which rooms I couldn't, what I could do, and what I couldn't do.But I hope he keeps his old way of life.The first feeling when I walked through the gate was a feeling of familiarity. Everything is almost unchanged.The ornamental pots are still in the same position even though inside there are new trees and the broom to sweep the yard is still in the old position. I feel like I've never left this place.“Bring your things to your room and then go to the kitchen to have dinner with me. I just finished cooking.” He said as he locked the gate.“I've already had dinner.”“Then eat some more. Come on, let's go inside.”He smiled gently and ran in first. I glanced at his back and then leisurely followed.The moment I touched the door of the room
After two more days, Brian came back as he said. After hearing him announce that he had gotten off the plane, I immediately prepared to rush out after opening the gate. Honestly, I miss him and look forward to seeing him to confirm he's still healthy. At exactly ten o'clock at night, the doorbell rang, and I quickly rushed out, unlocking the gate. However, the car had just passed halfway through the gate when he got out and walked toward me. His eyebrows furrowed, expressing dissatisfaction. “Why are you in such a hurry?” “Ah… because you're back. Here, I give you the house back.” I put the key in his hand, smiled wryly, and replied. “Go back inside, you haven't gotten the gift yet. Hurry up. I'll take you home later.” Brian put the key back in my hand and told me to lock the gate. This guy is so troublesome. He thinks he's my boss even when we're outside of office hours and outside the company, right? Give orders. He always gives orders. I walked at a snail's pace, so when I
“That's just a side thing, I came here this time mainly because of Brian.”I thought if I spoke so softly, Harold wouldn't hear. I didn't expect that his ears were better than I thought.But I don't fully understand the meaning of what he said. He said he came here for Brian, huh?“Do you know Brian had a traffic accident two years ago?”Facing Harold's determined eyes, I didn't dare lie that I didn't know, I just said I had read the information in the newspaper but then the news disappeared so I thought it was a mistake.“Brian struggled in the hospital bed for a year, constantly suffering from high fevers. There were times when I thought death had called his name.”I dug my nails into my knees so that the pain spread throughout my body to suppress the throbbing pain in my heart.I could somewhat feel the pain that man had to endure.Harold stopped talking for a while and then continued to speak. He said that after Brian recovered, his personality was not the same as before, he often
In the evening, I was sitting at Caily's house, eating fried fish balls and drinking milk tea with her, when a strange phone number called my phone.The nature of my job doesn't distinguish between unfamiliar and familiar phone numbers, so I quickly picked up the phone.“Excuse me, this is the phone number of Miss Bella Poarch, a sales staff at the AD company, right?” A warm male voice spoke up.“Ah, yes, it's me. What do you need, please?”Because I was afraid to disturb Caily, I signaled her to continue eating, while I went out into the yard.On the other end of the phone, the man politely introduced himself as Kelvin. He had just returned from abroad and was looking for an apartment for his girlfriend, who was also an international student who had just returned home.“Price is not an issue, what matters is quality and location. I want her to live near the city center so that it is convenient for her to go to work in the future.” A voice filled with the smell of money rang out, maki
From the moment I stepped out of the director's office until late afternoon, that curtain had not been raised once.Glancing at the right corner of the computer screen, seeing that it was four o'clock in the afternoon, I immediately got up from my seat and went home, taking a shower.The working hours of the company's employees are inherently flexible, especially the sales department. Therefore, even if I leave a little early, the human resources department still gives me a full day of timekeeping.However, everyone is self-aware and does not intentionally leave the company early if they do not have an appointment with a customer.Also because of Brian, I had the intention of deceiving the company.After applying light makeup and putting on a light purple dress, I took a taxi to the meeting point.Kelvin seems to be a young man who does not like to show off. The restaurant he chose was a popular restaurant.However, that restaurant's food is very delicious, I have eaten there before s
