To be honest, this is the first time I’ve seen this situation.
“That, why don’t you call first and ask.” Edward looked also more than thirty, not so incomprehensible to men and women, crippled himself.
“Okay, then I’ll hang up first!” She opened her mouth, not at all the shyness and uneasiness of a girl after being slept with.
I let out a sound, just about to hang up the phone, she suddenly remembered, “By the way, where did you go last night? Linda called me just now and said she was disconnected and couldn’t remember who you left with.”
I pursed my lips and couldn’t help but say, “No, didn’t you lose your mind yesterday? How do you know the man last night was Edward?”
She laughed out and said, “Just kidding, I’m drunk, but I’m sober. Tell me honestly, who were you with last night?”
“Dennis!” This kind of thing, there is nothing to hide.
On the other end of the phone, she blew up a little, “Holy shit, you guys were together last night, how was it? Did you make up?”
“No!” I opened my mouth and sighed, “If there is nothing unexpected, I will probably receive the divorce papers in the next few days, then it is with him to take the account book together back to Newton Town and get the divorce papers done.”
She was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone and spoke, “Clara, can I seriously ask you why?”
I laughed and was relieved to say, “A lot of things happened in the past, and there are too many things between the two of us that we can’t talk about, so I can’t go on with him, it’s probably fate.”
She sighed and said, “This matter, perhaps you have made your own decision, have your own ideas, then I support you, but Clara, I really think that a man like Dennis, perhaps really only once in a lifetime, a lifetime can only fall in love with a, later, you may regret, let go of this man’s hand. ”
I nodded, “Maybe it will really be like you said, but Jannings, this choice of life, no matter how to do, in fact, will regret, let’s feel free to rest!”
She hmmed, a little regretful, but didn’t say much else.
After hanging up with her, I looked at the time and it was almost 8:30.
I had to go to work, so I hurriedly got up and washed up, dressed and took a taxi to the company.
When I got to the entrance of the company, I remembered that Edward’s breakfast, I seemed to have forgotten.
“Clara, good morning!” A voice came from behind me, it was Jannings.
I was a little surprised, “What are you doing here?”
She held up the food box in her hand and spoke, “I know you don’t have time for my man, so I came to bring him breakfast, by the way …”
She lowered her voice and whispered, “By the way, how is he doing?”
I had a feeling of being stuffed with dog food, nodded and said, “OK, you go see your man, I’m in a hurry, first go up and punch the clock, contact at noon.”
Rushing to the door of the company, opened, I was relieved, lying on the desk to smooth the air.
Linda saw me, handed me the bread in his hand and said, “It looks like you also did not eat breakfast, just eat some, there is a scientific basis says, do not eat breakfast and eat shit almost, so, eat bread is better than eating shit, just eat it!”
I ????
“I have the feeling that you don’t actually want me to eat!”
She smiled lightly, “Don’t think too much, how was your night last night? Did you sleep well?”
There was a bit of ambiguity in those words.
I guess Jannings told her about me, I shrugged my shoulders and said lightly, “Actually, it’s just like that!”
During working hours, too much small talk is inappropriate, and she asked to have lunch together at noon.
I obliged.
When I returned to the office, I had to take yesterday’s documents to Edward for signature, and after finishing them, I went straight to Edward’s office.
After knocking a few times at the door, a man’s low, serious voice came from inside, “Please come in!”
I pushed the door open and saw him sitting in front of the computer, as usual, working in a serious manner.
Thinking about what Jannings said, I couldn’t help but think a little bit about where he really got hurt.
“Mr. White, these documents need your signature!” Placing the papers in front of him, I spoke.
I saw the food box on his desk, which Jannings had carried earlier, and it seemed to have been here.
He hmmed and looked up at me with an odd gaze, “What are you looking at?”
I froze, realizing I was rudely staring at him, and said awkwardly, “No, I was going to ask if you’d had breakfast yet. You had … last night.”
He stared at me fiercely, looking at me a bit flustered before saying, “Setting the boss up, Clara, you’ve grown up?”
I shook my head, extra sincere said, “Mr. White, you have to believe me, I really did not do anything, last night, I do not know at all, and behind you saw, I went after Linda, after all, she drank so much wine, if I let her go by herself, how dangerous.”
Speaking of which, I tentatively spoke, “Were you okay last night?”
He raised his eyes and frowned, “What’s okay?”
“The body!” I almost blurted out, just short of asking if he had gone to the doctor and if the problem was serious.
He gave me an indifferent look and said coldly, “Why am I not well?”
Uh-uh!
There was no way to keep asking this, so I smiled, hiding the embarrassment and said, “You’re fine, always fine.”
I couldn’t ask any more questions, so I was ready to go, and he said, “The George Group will come over here for a meeting later, you’re the project leader, the meeting is at 9:30, don’t be late.”
I nodded, answered, saw him reach for the file, the injury was bandaged, froze for a moment, subconsciously spoke, “Mr. White, your hand?”
He indifferently glanced at the bandaged hand and said faintly, “I accidentally hurt it last night.”
So …
The blood was not what I thought it was?
I was a little embarrassed for a moment, and when I hurried out of the office, I called Jannings.
Opened the mouth, “What did you do last night? Why did Edward’s hand get hurt?”
She also seemed a little confused, said, “I’m not sure, I have little memory, just saw his hand hurt, I was also surprised, how can not remember how I hurt him, okay, I’m sleepy, did not sleep well last night, I sleep first, talk to you this afternoon, bye.”
After that she just hung up the phone.
I went back to the office, Linda sent some documents for the meeting later and reminded me, “Today is the first time we communicate with the George Group, so you have to get in the spirit and don’t drop the ball.”
I nodded, since I had taken over, there was no way I could muddle through.
Going over the meeting flow and highlights, I went over it all, and the time was just right.
Out of the office, originally I intended to go directly to the conference room, I did not expect to meet Edward and Linda, the two looked at me and said, “Come on, go downstairs to meet the George Group people!”
I was stunned, this need the White Family president personally to meet?
