“Who else could it be? The one who used to work at your company, of course.” Christina Sanchez got out of the elevator, walked over to that one, and tilted her head to look at the jumping numbers.
Marshall Johnson’s heart is weak, but a look of realization, “Oh, you said that Miss Jones ah! If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten. How did you meet her? I heard she’s in New York right now.”
Christina Sanchez turned her head to look at Marshall Johnson, “Is she really in New York?”
Marshall Johnson immediately nodded his head as if to mash it, “That’s what I heard from my colleagues.”
“Didn’t come back?”
“I heard that she is doing well in New York, you know, who does not want to go to New York to develop this piece of finance? She seems to have found a boyfriend with a green card in the U. S., so she won’t be coming back.” In order to convince Christina Sanchez, Marshall Johnson made a lot of lies. The lies are piled on top of each other, and they don’t blink.
“Is that so? If that’s true, then it doesn’t look like it’s coming back.” Christina Sanchez recited, not knowing whether she believed it or not, tilted her head again to look at the elevator, then at Marshall Johnson, and finally folded her arms and headed out.
Walking behind her, Marshall Johnson took a long breath. Oh my God! That was close!
Almost immediately after leaving the office, Christina Sanchez sought out her daughter-in-law and daughter.
The Other Side …
With the heavy information in hand, Andrea Jones stood in the elevator, her eyes inexplicably stopping at the number on the top floor – was he in the office or in the apartment now, after staying up all night last night?
Fingers, almost uncontrollably, were about to press on that number when the colleague behind us together said, “Jones, the head of this project said we should wait for us directly in the conference room on the sixth floor.”
The man said and reached back and pressed the number ‘6’ from behind.
Andrea Jones snapped back to her senses and straightened her hair with some embarrassment, “Sorry, I forgot.”
Step back, quietly against the elevator wall, and wait for the elevator to reach the 6th floor.
When Andrea Jones arrived, someone from IG was already in the conference room. However, Garret Miller was not there this time, and it was the project manager who was in charge. The project manager was making a clean presentation on the stage. Andrea Jones knew the people at IG, and the project manager was someone she knew well, so she was not too worried about the case.
“Although I believe in the strength of IG, however, I still hope you can hand us a most objective risk assessment as soon as possible. Also regarding the direction of all the funding categories, our boss would like to have a complete report as well.” Andrea Jones said as she browsed through the embellished proposal.
“Definitely. Our colleagues are already working on these materials and will deliver them all by next week at the latest.”
Andrea Jones nodded slightly and glanced sideways at the lawyer who had followed her. The lawyer spoke in a businesslike manner, “Once Jones has confirmed all the processes, we will sign the contract. All funds will arrive one week after the contract.”
The project manager smiled happily and went over to shake hands with each other one by one, “I wish us a happy cooperation.”
Andrea Jones was packing up her things, putting her pens in her bag, looking down at the liver pills she had brought in her bag before leaving home today, thinking of the man who had been guarding her downstairs all night, her heart tightened slightly, and she subconsciously held the pills tightly in her hand.
Carrying the computer out of the conference room, I realized that everyone hadn’t left yet.
“Jones, everyone is waiting for you!” A colleague who came along with her from New York said.
“Hmm? Waiting for me to do what?” Andrea Jones thought it odd.
IG’s project manager said, “I want to treat everyone to a fun night out. Everyone has not been back to China for a long time, and now that they are back for once, there must be many places they want to go. Therefore, we have arranged activities for everyone to go to a barbecue in the evening, and then go to a club to have some fun. What do you think?”
The first time I saw her, I was able to get back to New York without even playing.
Andrea Jones lost her smile, “Yeah, let’s go together then.”
She couldn’t actually sleep at night anyway. She thought she could get jet-lagged quickly, but, to her surprise, lying in bed just tossed and turned.
The plan was finalized and everyone clamored and applauded. The group of young people came together in a lively manner. Andrea Jones walked soberly towards the elevator, her liver pills squeezed tightly in her hand, and before she got into the elevator, she took a step and let everyone go down first.
The project manager who sent them out looked at her in amazement, “Is there anything you don’t understand in the program?”
“Oh, not …,” Andrea Jones was a little embarrassed and felt a little embarrassed. But still reached out and handed the liver pills to the other party, “Could you please give this to … Mr. Williams for me?”
“Mr. Williams?” the project manager had a moment of confusion, but when he saw Andrea Jones’ shy and embarrassed face, he immediately remembered the gossip that had been spread throughout the company two years ago and was busy nodding sagely, “Yes, I will definitely help you bring this to Mr. Williams On hand.”
At this moment, a low voice suddenly came from behind, “What is meant for me?”
This sound …
Andrea Jones was stunned, and even without turning around, she could clearly sense that he was walking slowly out of the elevator. The tall, long figure was getting closer and closer to her. Smelling the fresh scent of his shower, Andrea Jones heard her heart beating fast and uncontrollably like it was about to leap out of her chest.
The project manager cupped the pill and was about to hand it directly to Neal Williams when Andrea Jones was so shocked and embarrassed that she immediately reached out and snatched it away.
“It’s not meant for you, he misheard.” Andrea Jones blushed and made to stuff the pills back into her bag. But by this time Neal Williams was already standing fixed behind her, and with a long arm reaching from behind, he snapped her hand in place.
His chest, pressed against her back. That warm, that wide, like a big mountain that can encompass everything. The large palm fell on the back of her hand, hot, directly into every inch of her veins, so that she even the tip of her heart is throbbing.
She wanted to draw back her hand, but, like something pulling her whole body, she could not move. Just let him embrace himself from behind like a hug, she even some coveted such close, coveted his heartbeat, coveted his breath, coveted everything about him …
Such a close, Neal Williams also did not expect, stunned for a moment. The softness of his arms made his heart full. In the presence of other people, the next moment, but still reluctant to take the medicine in her hand.
Back away an inch before looking down at the pills.
Liver care?
Neal Williams raised an eyebrow and looked at her, “Why are you giving me this?”
Looked at the project manager before she politely said, “Early this morning, I heard the security guard say …”
Neal Williams was slightly surprised, then, with understanding. She knew that she had been smoking downstairs all night last night? So, she brought this for herself?
Heart, slightly moved. Deep-eyed glance at her, the corners of the lips can not help but raise. The decadent look on his face is now swept away and replaced by a brightness. He smiled, smiling eyes deep, “I know, I will eat well.”
Andrea Jones had her head down, but she could still really feel his burning eyes. The elevator was arriving at the same time, and she was about to burn up from the look in her eyes, so she had to get into the elevator, “I’ll leave you to it. Bye!”
Neal Williams did not go after her because of the presence of the company staff. He just watched her walk into the elevator, and then, looking down at the pills in his hand, he couldn’t help but laugh softly.
Goodbye …
So, they will definitely see each other again.
The project manager is not a fool, such an ambiguous atmosphere, anyone can see it. Although Mr. Williams has been married, but, who does not know that he and his wife relationship is poor ah?
“Mr. Williams, we have arranged to go to the club together in the evening, why don’t you come along?”
Having been up all night last night, Neal Williams felt he should really get back to bed early. Just as he was about to refuse the other party, he added, “It’s to entertain Miss Jones and her group.”
Neal Williams asked, “Is she going too?”
With just one word ‘she’, the other party instantly understood what he meant. With a slight smile, he nodded, “Yes, Miss Jones has just agreed.”
It seems that goodbye is not far away.
Neal Williams nodded, “Just give Marshall Johnson the club’s address later.”
“Yes!”
Christina Sanchez was the first to invite Bonnie Williams out, shopping. Walked straight into the lingerie store in the mall.
Bonnie Williams was speechless, “Mom, you’re still buying this? Even if you want to win back Dad’s heart, you don’t have to spend so much money, right?”
When she mentioned her husband, Christina Sanchez was slightly stunned and had a dark look in her eyes. But immediately collected good emotions, only said: “Mom asked you something, you tell me honestly.”
“Hmm?” Bonnie Williams absently plucked a piece of pajamas and lingerie, her mind couldn’t help but think of someone who would take the bait if she was dressed like this. The thought of it made her cheeks flush. I heard my mother ask, “Is Andrea Jones back?”
“What?” Bonnie Williams thought she had heard wrong.
“I say, is that woman back?”
Bonnie Williams froze for a moment and shook her head, “Mom, why are you suddenly bringing up Andrea when it’s been two years?”
“Two years!” Christina Sanchez grunted, “Do you know what your brother has done in the last two years? He hasn’t even touched Penny Brown yet! You know, Penny’s body isn’t bad, so why does he have to be so bad?”
Bonnie Williams is still in shock. Although I know Neal Williams resent Penny Brown, stubborn nature, but I did not expect to really do this.
“You, as a sister, do not know how to persuade!”
“Mom, don’t you think about it, is Neal the only one who trashed Penny Brown, who had to marry him back then and now is just getting what’s coming to her!”
Christina Sanchez glanced at her daughter with displeasure, “Why do you always help your brother in everything? And now you feel justified when he does this to his wife?”
“I’m not really helping him. I’m just being honest.” Bonnie Williams glanced at Christina Sanchez, “Mom, you didn’t pick these clothes out for Penny Brown, did you?”
“Of course. Is it really for me to pick out my own?” Christina Sanchez took the set and compared it to Bonnie Williams’ body, then asked, “Eh, look, how about this one?”
“Cheesy!” Bonnie Williams snorted in disbelief.
“What about this set?”
“Not good.”
“What about this?” Christina Sanchez asked again.
“Nothing feels right.” Bonnie Williams continued in denial.
Christina Sanchez was annoyed, “I said are you deliberately working against me? So tell me, which set is OK!”
Bonnie Williams was a little bemused, “Mom, do you want me to tell the truth?”
“You tell me.”
