After giving myself a mental detox, I breathed a sigh of relief, walked over to him and went into the bathroom with him.
Seeing him standing, I bowed my head slightly, bit my lip, reached down to slide open his belt, then unbuttoned his button and reached for the zipper.
The hand was suddenly pressed by him and his low, dark voice came, “Okay, I’ll do it myself!”
I couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief and turn around to get out of the bathroom.
The cell phone he had casually placed on the bed rang and I glanced down at the caller ID, it was Olivia calling, presumably asking about the injury, I didn’t answer.
But the phone kept ringing and Dennis didn’t come out in the bathroom for half a day, probably because he heard the ringing, and he spoke, “Answer it!”
I pursed my lips, thought for a moment, but still connected, before I opened my mouth, the other end came anxiously crying, “Dennis, are you better? I’m sorry, I really didn’t mean to do it, I didn’t want to play a little temper, and I didn’t want you to get hurt, I would rather get hurt only myself than let you get hurt, I promise, this is the last time, I will listen to you on everything from now on, never again.”
So, Dennis was injured because of Olivia?
Holding the phone, I did not speak for half a day, the person on the other end cried a little breathless, choking his voice, “Dennis, are you still angry with me? I was wrong, I’ll … later”
“You just stay away from him and there will be no later.” I spoke, my voice not quite friendly, with a touch of anger.
Probably because he heard my voice, the caller froze for a moment, then his voice also calmed down, his crying stopped, and he spoke, “Clara, who told you to answer Dennis’ phone? Why are you so uncultured to take other people’s phone calls?”
I sneered, “What? Knowing that I’m not your Dennis, you don’t even cry anymore? No more whining? Your ability to act naive and romantic for a few years has not grown, let you down, this call is your Dennis asked me to answer, at this time he is in the bathroom, not convenient.”
She was probably also angry, or jealous, coldly snorted, afraid that I could not hear her upset, spoke, “Clara, you do not have to be so proud, even if I can not marry Dennis, can not become his wife, but I have been in his life, become his habit, not you see for yourself, today’s accident, obviously he can avoid, can not have to Protect me, but he still subconsciously did, rather than let me get hurt, yes, he may really love you, really want to protect you, but I in his heart, has become a habit, indelible habit, this habit ten or twenty years will remain preserved, and later years, I will appear in your life from time to time, so that you will always be because I have a gap! ”
Not really angry, just amused, so I spoke into the phone and said in a lighter tone, “Olivia, are you tired?”
She froze and spoke, “As long as I can make your life uncomfortable, I don’t feel tired, ever.”
“Oh!” I nodded, “I hope you’ll stick around for the rest of your life.”
I then hung up the phone and casually put it aside, ready to wash up and go to bed.
Being suddenly hugged by Jean, I froze for a moment, smelling the familiar smell and knowing it was Dennis, I said, “Why are you walking without making a sound?”
He smiled lightly, “I’ve always walked very lightly, did you know that the first time?”
Not really.
Looking back at him, seeing his arm bandaged, I said, “I’ll get some hot water for you to rub, do not take a bath tonight, do not get wet, it will get better faster.”
He looked at me and the corners of his mouth turned up, “Good!”
See him sitting obediently waiting for me to bring water to him to rub, he did not speak, is quietly looking at me, that look also do not know what is thinking.
I opened my mouth and took the initiative to ask, “Looking at me like that, what’s on your mind?”
He smiled slightly lightly, “I thought you would be angry when you answered the phone just now, but looking at you, it’s a bit of a surprise.”
Wiping his hands clean, I put the towel in the basin, raised my eyes to look at him and said, “Let’s put it this way, what kind of projects are you most uneasy about in your investment projects?”
He was silent for a while and spoke, “There is no 100% understanding and no sure project!”
I nodded, “Well, I used to be concerned about Olivia, because I didn’t know whether you were purely out of duty or mixed with male and female feelings for her, so I avoided you together, because I wasn’t sure, so I was always vulnerable. But now is different, I know that you and she will not have any male and female love, not only because of me, but also because Marcus, Marcus likes Olivia, you can see, Olivia themselves also know in their hearts, if one day you really together, you even if you do not consider my feelings, but you will definitely consider Marcus.”
He looked at me with slightly narrowed eyes, his voice low and introspective, “My feelings for you make you so unsure that you think I won’t consider your feelings?”
“That’s me making the worst speculation!” I spoke, without the slightest evasion.
He raised an eyebrow, “And the best?”
“You care about me and will reject all ambiguity and women for me.”
He smiled and leaned closer to me, “Clara, you can squander my love as much as you want, no need to be careful.”
I pushed him away, got up, looked at the wound on his arm and said, “Dennis, because of other women to get themselves all wounded this kind of thing, the current position, has been twice, both times because of the same woman, to be honest, I’m not very happy!”
When I finished, I brought the water into the bathroom and washed myself up in the process.
When I came out, I saw that I didn’t know when there was a large handful of roses in the room, looking extra beautiful, Dennis sat on the bed, looking at me, smiling lightly, “I know, say sorry, you may not be happy, if it’s flowers then maybe you look a little more eye catching.”
I shrugged my shoulders, indeed, as he said, women do feel much better when they see flowers.
“As your assistant, I’m a little heartbroken for Toby.” I can’t think of anyone else but Toby who can buy flowers and deliver them at this point, in such a short time.
He smiled, moved away from his side and patted, “Come here!”
It’s getting late and I’m ready to rest.
I rubbed on my skin care products and lay down on the bed, looking at him as if he had no intention of going to sleep, I spoke, “Got something to say to me?”
He nodded, very seriously, “I’m not sure about your attitude towards Hank, compared to what I’m comfortable with!”
I froze for about a second before I understood what he meant and looked at him and said, “I won’t have anything to do with him except for work and friendships.”
