Morphy was such a smart person, so how could he not understand her hint?
Given his background, he was never short of beautiful ladies like Lonny who threw themselves on him.
He had seen countless women and could pick any beautiful woman he wanted. Any of these women could fare much better than Lonny in terms of beauty. She thought that she was alluring, but in his eyes, he just found her lecherous.
Hence, after her simple greeting, he turned his gaze away without saying a word. He chose to ignore her directly.
Lonny bit onto her lower lip. She felt a little embarrassed.
She had always been very confident in her looks. It was very rare for her to muster up the courage to take the initiative. She had hoped to gain this financial backer’s attention.
In the end, he did not even want to take another look at her.
Standing beside her, Rosiley and Lina witnessed the whole scene clearly. They looked at each other and were both speechless.
This Lonny had such wishful thinking! Did she think that by lowering her neckline a little she could get herself a rich husband?
Just when Rosiley was shaking her head inwardly, Morphy cast his gaze at her. “You must be Rosiley, right?”
“Yes, I am! Hello, CEO.”
Rosiley was startled. She then composed herself and quickly replied.
Morphy’s eyes lit up. He looked at her from top to bottom, seemingly interested.
His gaze was very straightforward. It was full of judgment. He scanned her body back and forth.
Today, Rosiley was wearing a casual long white dress. since the weather was getting cold, she also put on a dark-green cardigan. Her outfit was full of artistic vibes that elevated her scholarly appearance even more. On top of that, her well-defined features and visible curves caused her to look even more beautiful.
Her elegant temperament and pure aura that was naturally emitted caused others’ hearts to stir even more.
Morphy nodded in his heart.
He was indeed the woman that his cousin had set his eyes on. Although she was not alluringly beautiful, she was well worth a second look. In fact, the longer you looked at her, the more charming she seemed.
“Er, CEO, is there any problem?”
Rosiley felt extremely uncomfortable under his daring gaze. She thought to herself, “Could this man be a pervert? Who stares at someone like that when first meeting them?”
Lina also found him strange.
Rosiley looked like she obviously did not know Morphy, yet the latter was very interested in her. Why was that so?
“Ahem, I’m sorry. I don’t have any ill intentions. I heard a lot about you, so I was just curious.”
He seemed to have realized that it was not right to stare at someone like this. He quickly composed himself and returned to his original state. He said, “Miss is a rare talent. In the future, please work hard for the company as well.”
Rosiley heaved a sigh of relief. She dared not slight him. She quickly nodded and said, “CEO, please rest assured. I will.”
“Then you guys can go back to work. I’m going to check on other places.”
He waved his hand and did not stay for long. He quickly left the Media Department with his assistant and several other upper-management personnel.
After the crowd left, Rosiley could feel an obvious change in the way people looked at her, especially Lonny. There was a fit of unconvinced anger hidden in her eyes.
She tried so hard to package herself in order to attract Morphy’s attention. In the end, he did not even look at her.
Rosiley just stood there silently and still managed to win his voluntary conversation.
This kind of treatment caused her to be green with jealousy.
“Hmph! Deputy Manager Tang, you’re indeed skillful! Your flirting ability is top-notch! It seems like I still have to learn from you in the future.”
Lonny’s tone was filled with jealousy. Anyone could hear the unhappiness in her voice.
The other colleagues in the department were also envious. Those who had good relationships with Lonny also came forth.
“Haha, do you really think the CEO has eyes for you just because he talked to you? Take a look at yourself! Do you really think everyone will fall in love with you?”
“She’s definitely skillful! Otherwise, how could she be valued by the Manager and CEO?”
“Tsk-tsk, Deputy Manager Tang, you must teach us some of your flirting tricks!”
…
Rosiley knew that these people were on Lonny’s side, so she could not be bothered to respond to these baseless comments.
However, as the comments became harsher, a fire started to ignite in her heart.
Although she was also confused about why Morphy looked at her the way he did, at this point in time, she did not mind using his authority to make her stand.
…
Rosiley was so angry but she put on a smile instead. Not wanting to lose, she replied sarcastically, “Even if I tried to teach you, would you be able to learn?”
The faces of those women fell immediately. They scolded her back, “So shameless.”
“Exactly! Those who are shameless see everyone else as a shameless person.”
“You!”
Those women immediately put on a fierce look. They wanted to vent their anger, but seeing Rosiley’s ice-cold gaze, they dared not say a word.
Rosiley was never someone easy to mess with. Even when they wanted to beat her verbally, they still failed to do so.
“Shut up, all of you! It is now working hours. This is a place where you work instead of somewhere for you to flirt with men! If you don’t want to work anymore, you can tell me.”
As Lina heard these people argue, her expression could not help turning cold.
After being lectured, the dejected group of people could only go back to their work.
