Yayoi suddenly opened her eyes and stared right into a pair of deep eyes.
She was stunned for a moment and then quickly looked away. She turned her gaze towards Rosiley and said angrily, “Rosiley, who did you say would become stupid?”
Rosiley just smiled gently without saying anything.
Actually, Ruo only said so because she had seen Morphy running over to save Yayoi, but even though nothing had happened, Yayoi still kept her eyes tightly shut and her long eyelashes were trembling.
Hence, she deliberately said so. Otherwise, how would she have opened her eyes?
“Are you alright?” Morphy asked in a gentle voice as he looked at the girl who had regained her vigor. His eyes were filled with an emotion that others could hardly detect.
“I’m fine, thank you, sir.” Yayoi realized that she was still in his arms and quickly jumped away.
Her tone was distant and polite, but a trace of disappointment flashed across the bottom of his eyes. His brows seemed to furrow a little.
Then, he shot a sharp glare at the women who had been making trouble.
“Can you guys tell me what happened?” he asked sternly.
“I… we…” One of the women started speaking but because she was so scared, her voice kept on shaking and she could not finish her sentence.
Morphy glanced across them and his gaze landed on Rosiley. “Deputy Manager Tang, what’s going on?”
He was obviously speaking to her in a tone that a superior would use with a subordinate. It was very formal and did not have any personal feelings involved.
Those women looked at each other. Hadn’t people said that Rosiley was the CEO’s lover? But why was his gaze so calm and indifferent? It was as if there was no emotion in it at all.
Was it not real?
“Nothing, it’s just a trivial thing between women.” Rosiley did not want to make a big fuss out of it, so she gave a very light-hearted answer.
Morphy frowned slightly. He understood what his sister-in-law meant. Hence, he said to the women in a deep voice, “I already said this at the meeting, if you want to cause trouble and destroy the employees’ unity, TEG News doesn’t need employees like you.”
“I’ll let it go this time. If this happens again, I will fire all of you.”
Those women answered meekly in unison, “We understand, sir.”
“Then go back to work.”
Looking at the women scurrying away, Rosiley could not help sighing. “A jealous woman is so terrifying.”
“That’s why you have to be careful, sister-in-law,” Morphy said with a smile.
“Why?”
“Just given Big Brother’s looks, you will definitely have love rivals coming at you non-stop.”
“You’re right.” Rosiley bit her nails and pondered for a moment. Then, she said half-jokingly, “How about I make a cut on his face?”
“No!” Yayoi exclaimed in shock.
Rosiley and Morphy turned to look at her in confusion. She scratched her head embarrassedly and murmured, “Mr. Lu is so handsome, it would be a pity if you destroyed his face.”
Rosiley rolled her eyes. “I don’t even think it’s a pity, why do you care?”
“I think you should stop worrying about her husband’s face getting disfigured. Worry about your own face first.”
Upon hearing this, Rosiley then noticed the injury on Yayoi’s face. Feeling full of pity for her, she said, “How did this happen? If I had known this earlier, I wouldn’t have let those people go so easily.”
There were a few scratches on her face and blood was oozing out. Morphy’s heart ached al lot. He lifted his hand, wanting to touch her face, but when he thought of Rosiley being there, he quickly put down his hand.
However, Rosiley did not miss his little movement. A glimmer of light flashed across her eyes, and then she took Yayoi’s arm and said meaningfully with her lips curled, “Let’s go. I’ll take you to dress your wounds. We can’t have them leaving scars behind, someone would feel distressed.”
As she spoke, she gave Morphy a meaningful gaze.
The latter felt as if his thoughts had been seen through and he could not help smiling bitterly.
