Day 2
Catherine went into the bathroom alone and started to wash up, she decided to go to work today, staying in the hospital was getting on her nerves.
Not long after Darren finished washing up, he called for breakfast to be delivered. Catherine took a sip of milk and sighed: it was better than chicken soup.
Darren gracefully ate the omelette with his fork when Catherine suddenly spoke up, “That, and I’m almost recovered, I want to go to work today.”
Said Catherine bowing her arms, like a soldier asking for credit, showing her health.
Looking at Catherine’s comical movements, Darren couldn’t help but let out a light laugh, this silly woman, what’s in her head!
“You can go if you want to.”
Catherine was a little surprised, she didn’t expect Darren to agree to herself so easily, as far as she could remember, every time Darren had gone against herself and forced herself.
“Good.” Catherine’s mood was unmistakably happy, and although some things at the company sometimes kept her busy, on the whole, work made her feel fulfilled.
Just in the two days of recuperation, she felt a bit like Anna, being kept by a man and having nothing to do all day.
Catherine quickly finished her breakfast, cleaned up, and was about to leave the house when Darren asked softly, “Should I get someone to drive you?”
Catherine shook her head. Because of the last incident, many people in the company were talking about her relationship with Darren, and although she didn’t care about the gossip, she didn’t want to make herself a hot topic either.
Thinking of the hostile eyes of thousands of young girls, she shuddered: “I’ll just take a taxi myself.”
In the cab, the breeze blew through the window on Catherine’s face, the hair on her forehead gently fluttered up and arced in the air, her eyes staring out the window, transfixed.
She doesn’t know if she should feel lucky or what, Darren became the president of the Kirkland Group at a young age and is well known in the circle.
The main thing is that he is also handsome, he does not know how many women’s dream man, as long as he beckons, there will be a large number of women flock to him, but he is married to himself.
But does he truly love himself?
No! At the very least, Darren didn’t love himself when the two were getting their license, and as for now, she doesn’t know what the answer will be.
Soon, the car arrived at the downstairs of the office and Catherine looked up at the tall floor and exclaimed, “I’m back at work!”
Catherine looked at the time, there were still five minutes before the end of the clock, so she could still make it.
She calculated in her mind that she could still get paid for the day.
Although she and Darren were married and Darren gave her some money every month, she didn’t touch a penny of it and continued to support herself, thinking that she didn’t have a broken arm or leg, so why should she rely on him to support me.
Seeing that the elevator door is about to close, miss this shift today’s paycheck can be lost, Catherine hurriedly took a big step, reached out to block the elevator door, she let out a long breath, okay, okay.
Then she bent her head slightly to the elevator and expressed some apologies before getting in. Catherine pressed the floor where her office was located in a familiar way and stood guard at the door, just waiting for the elevator to arrive, then she rushed out with a swift movement and beeped, successfully clocking in.
Imagination is too rich, reality is too cruel, she felt that this saying is exactly right, the elevator just stopped, she rushed out in a panic, and ended up colliding with another person, Catherine subconsciously apologized: “Sorry.”
But the other party was obviously a bit angry and ignored Catherine’s apology, saying in a mean language, “How do you think you walk, don’t you have eyes?”
Catherine listened to the voice and felt some familiarity. She looked up sharply and found that it was Heidi who collided with her.
Heidi also looked up at Catherine, frowning, unhappiness written all over her face, while the female assistant said furiously, “Why you again! You’re an unlucky person, nothing good can come out of you.”
Catherine, seeing the female assistant’s exasperation, felt amused instead, shrugged her shoulders and said with a self-effacing expression, “Actually, that’s how I see you.”
The female assistant even thundered: “You, what did you say!?”
Catherine naturally ignored it and gave the female assistant a blank look before walking away.
“Wait.” Catherine just step away stopped, looked at the wrist watch, heart some displeasure, there are two minutes of my pay today on the gone!
It was Heidi who shouted out that cry, and she gave Catherine a stony look, instructing her assistant to wait downstairs while she narrowed her eyes and continued, “I want to talk to you!”
Talk? What do I have to talk about with you? I don’t have that much time on my hands, and I want my paycheck today, Catherine thought to herself.
“Sorry, I have to work, next time if I have time.” Catherine politely declined Heidi and turned to leave, but felt a pain in her wrist and a death grip.
“Catherine, don’t eat your wine, I’ve already given you enough face, what more do you want?” Heidi knitted her brows and said coldly.
Catherine thought Heidi was simply being unreasonable, going so far as to say she was being insensitive. Does everyone have as many holidays as you do? Since you are not polite to me, I will not be polite either.
Catherine fiercely shook off Heidi’s arm and also said in a bad mood, “Heh, it seems like I’m not the one who wants what now, right?”
Heidi’s eyes were full of resentment, as if Catherine owed her millions and didn’t want to pay them back: “Hmph, you don’t know enough what you’ve done?”
You’re nuts, right? What can I do to you! Catherine felt that Heidi was deliberately picking a fight.
