Ashton did not return all night.
Vivian lied on the bed of the individual bedroom that she strived for very hard, but had first time insomnia since “freedom”.
Ashton did not show up for work in the next day.
In face of the strange eyes of company people, Vivian came out of the elevator, walked through the corridor, went to the office. She wondered why they looked at her with expression of schadenfreude.
When she walked to the office and glanced at the President’s desk as customary.
Ashton didn’t come to work?
The dainty brows puckered a little, and there was a sudden premonition in her hearts.
Before the presentiment had been pressed, Lottie called.
“Are you all right, Vivian?” The voice on the phone was a little cautious.
Vivian frowned and did not understand why she said so, “I am very good.”
Lottie exhaled a breath, “Good, I thought Ashton…”
“What happened to Ashton?” Vivian asked. That kind of uneasy feeling in the heart was more and more intense.
“You don’t know?” Lottie asked in surprise, “Didn’t you watch the news today? The reporter caught Ashton having an affair with the daughter of a very rich man. Congratulations, you will be out of the misery soon.”
Finally, Vivian hung up the phone. She turned on the computer, which immediately jumped out a message – Ashton President of Heyday Group kissed Vilya the daughter of the rich in the restaurant, and considerately send his girlfriend home.
It was accompanied by two pictures. One was Vilya talking near Ashton in the restaurant, which looked like Vilya kissing Ashton’s earlobe.
The other was that, At the entrance of a restaurant, Vilya leaned over Ashton, who almost held her in his arms. It is hard to believe that there was no love between the two.
So he spent the whole night having sex with that mix-blood beauty?
There was like a seasoning bottle knocked over in Vivian’s heart, sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty. Her fingers moved to the call key, and hesitated before she pressed it.
On what ground would she question him?
Finally, she put her phone away and began her day’s work.
Until about to go off work, Ashton did not appear. Finally Vivian could not help but, like a brave man, called Ashton.
The telephone rang for a long time before it was picked up that Vivian almost thought Ashton did not want to answer.
“Hello,” it came Vilya’s voice on the other end of the phone.
With her pupils constricted, Vivian asked in as calm a voice as possible, “Where is Mr. Bradley? Please transfer him. I have something to report.”
Vilya looked at the man in the hospital bed with an arm hanging, and the woman’s natural intuition gave her a subtle sense of the unassuming secretary in the president’s office.
Holding the phone, she walked out of the ward and said after confirming her voice could not be heard, “Ashton is still in bed. If you have anything to tell me, I will tell him.”
Still in bed…
This sentence was easily confused. For example, it can be understood that after a whole night and a whole day of warfare between the two men, Ashton, who was exhausted, was trying to catch up on his sleep. When phone rang, in order not to disturb him, Vilya came out to answer the phone
“A little thing,” She said, trying to keep her voice even as she held the phone with knuckles clenching. “I’ll talk to him tomorrow when he comes.”
Then she hung up the phone in fluster.
After hanging up the phone, she was leaning on the chair weakly. Was that Ashton set her free because he was tired playing with her?
She should have been happy. But now the devil finally had a new love and abandoned her, she unexpectedly had a sense of loss…
The mobile phone rang suddenly, and Vivian startled. She looked down and found it was Brandon who had not gotten in touch for a long time. She adjusted the mood and pressed the answer key. The phone came the gentle voice of Brandon.
“Vivian, how is it going?”
Vivian encouraged herself, “Well, very good, thank you for your concern.”
Telephone that spread a burst of light smile, “You are so polite. Have you been busy? Have you been tired as before?”
“Not at all. How can I be busy when my boss doesn’t come to work?” Vivian answered angrily.
“Well, I wonder if I could have the honor to treat you to dinner tonight as my birthday present?” Brandon Stevens said.
Vivian hesitated for a second. The man would be angry if he knew that she and Brandon went out to have a dinner.
Brandon seemed to feel her hesitation and said with understanding, “It doesn’t matter. You don’t have to come if you don’t want to. I said I wouldn’t force you.”
Vivian was angry as she heard Brandon’s words. With what only him Ashton can have sex with other women, and she cannot celebrate the birthday with her friends?
“I’ll go!” she answered at once.
