In the following days, Brian seemed to be very gentle, he did not give me too much work anymore. I just remind him of the schedules of the day, of the week.But that didn't make me feel better, my footsteps were still heavy when the bus dropped me off in front of the company gate. And as soon as work hours ended, I immediately ran out of the room before the staff in the sales room.Brian's sudden change made me worry, I was afraid he would think of another trick to torment me.Outside of office hours, I will minimize contact with him as much as possible.Every time he looks at me through the glass of the office makes me extremely uneasy, his eyes seem to be looking at my heart and soul.Another new day came, like every other day, I woke up early, ate a cake quickly, and went to the company.The bus had just dropped me off when a luxury car arrived. As soon as the windshield came down, I recognized the driver as Hellen.“Get in the car, we need to talk.” Hellen said and pulled up the w
I quickly opened the car door and got out. On the other side of the car, Brian did the same thing.Just now, many sections of the road were stuck in traffic, so he let the car slow down and then stopped, so I thought I was stuck in traffic because there were many cars in front of me. I didn't know we had arrived.Brian gave the car keys to a man who drove into the parking lot and then approached me and stood beside me.His white shirt sleeve gently touched my skin, making my heart flutter. I felt the warmth from there spread to me, dispelling the chill of the afternoon wind.After getting the car keys back, he turned around and asked me to take his arm.Looking around, I noticed a lot of couples who didn't hold hands. Why does this guy like to cause trouble for me?“Can we hold hands like those two?” I frowned and asked softly.“You think you and I are two neighborhood kids who take each other to the grocery store to buy cakes, don't you?” He leaned over and whispered in my ear.“But…
“Bella, are you okay? Where do you have pain?”Harold swooped down next to me and asked, his face showing a worried expression. His hand touched my leg and then my hand.I understood that he was groping all over my body because he was so worried about me that he panicked, not because he had bad intentions.“Let me take you to the hospital to check.”As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up. However, when he was about to stoop to pick me up, Brian suddenly rushed over, pushed him aside, and picked me up.At this moment, I felt that the space and time around me had stopped.“I'll take her away.”He only left a sentence for Harold and quickly strode into the parking lot.One of the guards hurriedly ran behind us. When he arrived, he took the key from Brian's vest pocket and drove out of the parking lot.I was in so much pain that I didn't struggle or protest, let Brian do whatever he wanted.After putting me in the car and fastening my seat belt, he drove straight to the nearest hosp
Richard did not call me even once since he left my house. It seemed that he didn't say anything to Caily.If she knew that I was injured like this, she would have run to my side.It's okay, I don't want to bother her either.I've only been at home for two days and I'm sad. But because my fingers still hurt, I can't hold scissors or sewing needles, I can only take paper and draw some new dress designs.In the afternoon, I had just finished cooking a pot of sour soup with snakehead fish when the doorbell rang.When I was in the house, I heard Richard calling me, but when I ran out, I saw the person standing outside was Brian.Actually, I didn't intend to open the gate for him to enter, but when I saw the wound on his mouth and the bruise on his cheek, I worried.I guess this guy tripped or got into a fight with someone. He's old but still likes to fight?“Why did you come here?” I opened the gate and asked.What's up? Why is he looking at me with reproachful eyes?Before I could continu
Looking at Brian's bleeding mouth and bruised cheekbones, I suddenly felt heartache.In the end, I couldn't ignore him, so I took a medical cotton ball and medicine and quietly sat next to him, gently applying the medicine to him.Maybe he was in a lot of pain. However, even if he was beaten like this, he still looks good. Or is my taste becoming more and more salty and perverted?Richard hit Brian too hard. However, I know Brian is not gentle. I am worried that Richard was also injured.I don't want any of these two men to get hurt.I did not expect that one day I would once again be able to touch the face that made me fall in love. The contours of Brian's face remained the same, nothing changed.That accident only caused his face to be scratched, but he was traumatized all over his body.After cleaning things up, I went to my room, took my phone, and called Richard.I thought he ignored me but no, when the second ring rang, he picked up the phone, his voice was still gentle.“I'm li
Thirteen days of leave passed quickly, even if I wanted to hold on, time still revolved around according to the laws of nature.On the morning of the fourteenth day, I had to get up, get ready, and carry my lazy body to the office.When I was a salesman, I was very active, but since the day I was promoted by Brian, I became depressed like this.Entering the office, as always, I made tea for Brian.It's only half past seven, so the space is still very empty, only me going back and forth.As soon as I put down the tea tray, I heard footsteps behind me, so I quickly turned my head to look.More than ten days have passed, and the bruises on that handsome face have disappeared.“Hello, director.” I bowed my head slightly.“Uh. Welcome back.”He gave me a sad smile and went straight to his desk, sat down, and flipped through the documents, peering at them.My hand reached into my vest pocket and pulled out the ring. After a moment's hesitation, I stepped forward and set it down on his desk,
After a week, the first tour also started. According to the route, we traveled by plane to the North, then rented a few coaches to continue to the mountainous area.I haven't been on a plane for a long time. Since the day my father passed away, I no longer have the opportunity to fly in the sky.“Oh, Mr. Harold.” I exclaimed when I saw the golden man sitting down next to me.Admiring glances immediately turned towards me. People are not surprised because before, we used to interact very enthusiastically on social networks.I was originally an overshadowed person in the company, only shining in the sales department, but thanks to the blessing of Brian and his brother, I became a superstar of AD company.Now, if anyone rushes into the company and asks Bella of the sales department, both the security guard and the janitor know me.“Hello. Finally, you have fulfilled your wish.” Harold winked and gave me a bright smile.“I don't think the company will include the northern mountainous regi
Our group went along the blue streams to enter the valley.Two days ago, some employees from the union office came here first and prepared the tents, food, firewood, and preparations for the big game.Just now, when I heard the group leader's brief announcement, I felt excited.Some people realize that cardamom and wild vegetables can be eaten, so they pick them up while walking. As for me, I don't know anything, so I just watched.The cool water in the stream makes me extremely excited every time I stoop to wash my face.The grass is soft and smooth under my feet as if it is hugging me. There are moments when I have to wade through streams, the feeling of coolness hugging my feet helps me forget all my fatigue and be full of energy.Just now, when we were about to come here, our group stopped at the hotel, ate and drank, and showered to wake up. However, after sitting in the coach for another half an hour, I was exhausted again.Fortunately, the water of the stream and the afternoon
