Book:The Selfish CEO Published:2024-6-2

The maid smiled somewhat apologetically, “In fact, I only knew that something like this had happened to mister after watching the TV. As for whether it’s serious or not, these we dare not ask, and Mr. won’t say anything to us.”
“Oh yeah?” Sammy Jones sighed, “Thanks then.”
Sitting on the sofa, Sammy Jones has been fidgeting, the burning feeling in her heart, even she herself is surprised. Maybe because maybe it was her own even, so the heart is so uneasy it!
Took a sip of tea, put it down, picked it up for another sip, and it was at this moment that the doorbell rang abruptly.
Joey Xu is back?
Sammy Jones set down his tea and stood up, his mind already working out what to tell him about the reason he had come over in such a hurry tonight. Of course, it was never because of worrying about him!
“Miss Zhao?” The maid’s voice came from the doorway.
Miss Zhao?
Sammy Jones s footsteps toward the door abruptly stopped. Not Joey Xu, but … Zhao Lanlan?
“Sister An, how is Joey Xu? Is he seriously injured? You tell me which hospital he’s staying in, I’ll go see him now!” Zhao Lanlan was obviously worried, asking several questions in a row, her voice choking.
Sammy Jones sighed slightly.
What ever happened between them? Obviously she still cared so much about Joey Xu, but she married another man.
“Miss Zhao, don’t cry first, come in first and sit down for a while, Mr. Xu will be back soon.”
“He’s coming back?” As soon as Zhao Lanlan heard this, she busied herself in the house, “Is he coming back because he’s not badly hurt? Then I’ll just wait for him at home!”
Jo Langland changed her shoes and headed down the hall, walking in and catching a glimpse of Sammy Jones.
She was stunned, her face slightly hurt.
Sammy Jones gave her a slight smile and greeted her politely, “Ms. Zhao.”
“What a coincidence.” Zhao Lanlan smiled reluctantly, but still didn’t lose that composure, “Why is Miss Jones still here so late, is she here to see Joey Xu too?”
Sammy Jones obviously felt her low and sadness, it should be the first time she met with Joey Xu, those actions and those words of Joey Xu made her still misunderstanding until now.
She didn’t explain, “I saw on TV that something happened to Joey Xu, so I came over to check it out.”
“Oh … it turns out that Miss Jones also knew about this from the TV.” Zhao Lanlan sighed, “I thought Joey Xu loved you so much that he would call you first to inform you.”
“Actually, Ms. Zhao, you’ve really misunderstood, Joey Xu and I …”
“What misunderstanding?” Suddenly, a male voice came from the doorway. Low, dangerous, “Sammy Jones, you’ve had two good days, do you owe another lesson?”
Sammy Jones bites.
As soon as this girl came back, she threatened her! And, where’s the wound? How’s the wound? His face is fine, so there’s nothing wrong with it. So it’s somewhere else?
Considering that he was injured, Sammy Jones planned to leave him alone for now, and walked towards him, about to ask him about his injuries, but as a result, there was already a figure that was one step ahead of her and reached Joey Xu.
“I heard you were hurt? Show me where it hurts.” Zhao Lanlan was worried beyond belief and anxiously held his arm.
Joey Xu lowered his eyes to look at her, his arm subconsciously trying to pull away from her hand. Zhao Lanlan sadly tightened her grip again, “Joey Xu, I know you’re angry with me, and I know you don’t want to forgive me anymore, but, you should at least let me see your injury, okay? Just make sure you’re okay and you don’t want to see me, I’ll leave immediately.”
She was so condescending and pathetic, a woman would feel intolerant. Not to mention Joey Xu who has always loved her.
Joey Xu’s face slightly moved, in the end, he could not bear it, pursed his lips and said, “The injury is not a problem. On the contrary, it’s you, why did you come over so late?”
“I saw your news on TV and was afraid that something had happened to you, so I came over to take a look.” Zhao Lanlan was relieved to hear him say that he wasn’t in the way, “If you’re fine, I’m relieved.”
Sammy Jones just stood at a distance of two meters and watched them silently, suddenly feeling that it was a bit redundant for her to come here tonight, like a light bulb, quite meaningless. Now that she had confirmed that he was fine, she should also leave. If she stayed any longer, it would be a bit awkward.
She didn’t say anything to disturb the two of them, so she planned to bolt without any presence. As a result, when she intended to go out around the two of them, her arm was abruptly clasped by a hand.
She froze and subconsciously looked up.
Joey Xu narrowed his eyes at her, “Where to?”
“… home.”
“Just leave?” Joey Xu glanced at her twice, “So, you came to my place at night as a tourist?”
“Ah! Thinking of business.” Sammy Jones hurriedly looked down and fished the bank card out of his bag and handed it to him, “This is yours. It’s got 128W on it, I withdrew my share and didn’t touch a cent of the rest, so check it out.”
Joey Xu didn’t pick it up, just looked down at the card, “Just for this?”
“Well, this is it.” She taps the card right into Joey Xu’s hand, “Alright, you two talk, I’ll leave you to it then.”
Joey Xu felt a bit angry, this woman just left? Knowing that he was thrown acid, she left without asking? She is really heartless!
Frowning, he reached out and grabbed her again.
“What’s wrong?” Sammy Jones asked suspiciously. Subconsciously, he glanced aside at Zhao Lanlan, and sure enough, she had a mournful look on her face.
“You stay, I have something to tell you.” Joey Xu pointed to the couch, “Go sit down.”
“It’s so late …”
“Go sit down!” He interrupted her directly, aggravating his tone with an air of complete irrefutability. Sammy Jones wanted to bite him twice, the guy was definitely a macho sand pig!
Mentally, she was cursing, but dutifully took a seat on the couch. As it happened, she had another thing to ask him as well.
Over there, Joey Xu and Zhao Lanlan stood facing each other. Joey Xu lowered his eyes and glanced at her, “It’s late, I won’t keep Mrs. Xia. Even if your husband doesn’t misunderstand, I’m worried that my woman will.”
Sammy Jones heard and raised his eyes to glare at him. The guy was using her as a shield again!
Zhao Lanlan had a depressed look on her face, “Joey Xu…”
“I’m not hurt, you can leave in peace now.” Joey Xu drove her away without mercy. Seeing that she didn’t move, he spoke again, “Sister An, call the driver to come and send Mrs. Xia away.”
The whole house heard this high order of expulsion. If Zhao Lanlan is still not leaving, she can’t pull that face.
Joey Xu gave her a look, tall, and crossed over to her, heading straight for Sammy Jones.
“Joey Xu!” called Zhao Lanlan from behind him.
Sammy Jones visibly saw him frown and seemingly hesitate, but in the end he didn’t stop.
He bent over and took Sammy Jones’ hand in a more natural way, the heat of that palm wrapping around her, causing her to freeze slightly, her heartbeat inexplicably quickening as she subconsciously looked up at him.
“Get up.”
“Where to?” All she could do was stand up after him.
Joey Xu didn’t answer, pulling her towards the upstairs. Sammy Jones only felt that the aggrieved and hurt line of sight behind her had been staring at her, looking at her with great pressure. When she looked back at Zhao Lanlan, she stood there in a daze, disappointedly watching them walk up the stairs step by step, and that look made Sammy Jones feel apologetic, as if she had robbed her of her boyfriend. But it wasn’t! This matter was originally between the two of them, how did they get themselves involved for a good reason?
“Joey Xu!” said Sammy Jones, struggling with his hand. But he just wouldn’t let go. Sammy Jones got stubborn too and struggled harder. He frowned and lowered his voice, ordering, “Don’t move for me!”
Sammy Jones looked down and saw a layer of blood oozing from the cuff of his snow-white shirt. Her jaw dropped in shock and her movements stopped immediately… had she just pulled his wound?
“You are subject to …”
“Shut up.” Joey Xu raised his hand to cover her mouth, and without moving, he swept his eyes at Zhao Lanlan downstairs, and glared at Sammy Jones, making it clear that he didn’t want Zhao Lanlan to know. Sammy Jones obediently withdrew his voice, and without another word, he let him pull him towards the stairs.
Zhao Lanlan finally turned away in frustration.
Sammy Jones wrenched his fingers, “You let go, she’s gone.”
Joey Xu turned back, lowered his eyes towards the downstairs and looked at the back, his eyes slightly deeper with mixed emotions. Sweeping Sammy Jones a glance, finally let go of her. The heat of the fingertips dispersed, Sammy Jones can not say that the feeling of coldness in the heart is to why.
The other hand took hold of herself firmly and she spoke a little uncomfortably, “Next time don’t do that!”
“Don’t which?” The figure exited the door before Joey Xu’s eyes retracted.
“Don’t use me as a shield! I’m not acting with you!”
“Who made you bump so well, every time she’s around you show up, if I don’t take you in a play, is it hard to play with Sister An?” Joey Xu still looks like she’s taking it for granted. As he said that, he walked towards his bedroom, and when he turned around to see Sammy Jones glaring at him angrily, he just said, “Come in with me!”
Sammy Jones was immediately on guard, “What for?!”
Joey Xu smiled evilly, “What? Afraid I’ll jian you?”
She immediately wrapped her arms around herself and glared at him, “It’s not like that’s not a possibility!”
“You save it!” Joey Xu blanked her, “Zhao Lanlan is right there, I didn’t even ask for it, you …”
His eyes glanced her up and down. Well, in fact, Sammy Jones this woman, except for the character of the poor point, body and face are all top quality. The body well … last time he was in a Japanese restaurant has slightly seen a little bit!
“What’s wrong with me lol! Hey, where are you looking?” Sammy Jones realized that his eyes were fixed on her breasts, so big and evil that she jumped up and hated that she couldn’t poke him in the eye. Of course, she didn’t dare! Just wanted to blindfold him!
However, only when she reached out to cover his eyes, Joey Xu suddenly reached out and clasped her hands. In the next instant, sharply scissored back behind her, her entire body was easily clamped down by him, her slender body was forced to arch up against his body.
“You … you let go of me!” Sammy Jones’ face was red with shame and annoyance.
Being so close to each other, his body was pressed against his chest, and the warm, soft scent that belonged to a woman ran into his nostrils. Tonight’s Sammy Jones, obviously having taken a shower and come out of the house temporarily, had no makeup on her face and no perfume on her body, but instead smelled purely of body lotion. It was tangy orange and seemed to smell sweet.
Joey Xu stared at the face, his eyes slightly deeper. Sammy Jones didn’t know what he was thinking at the moment, only felt his breath tighten, being held by him, unable to move a muscle.
“Sammy Jones, are you always unrealistically paranoid about being victimized because you think you’re extraordinarily beautiful and fit?” Narrowing his eyes, he finally spoke.
“You! You’re the one who’s delusional!” All the awkwardness and subtlety was ruined by his words.
Joey Xu suddenly bent his head close to her, that face in front of her constantly enlarged, she breathed sharply, her body bent downward, instinctively to avoid. But he smiled and spoke quietly, “Don’t worry, Lan Lan I don’t even want, you … I really don’t have any sexual interest.”
