Chapter 16 What Are You Guys

Book:Because of You, I'm Obsessed Published:2024-5-28

Mandy is a top reporter of our magazine before, but after the Entertainment Club news, my reputation gradually spread, and Mandy keeps competing with me.
“Fine. The interview is the most important thing. Carol, get some preparation.” The editor-in-chief interrupts Mandy’s sarcasm and pats on my shoulder.
I can clearly feel that many people’s attitudes have changed immediately.
With gossip expression, they look at me with all kinds of suspicions.
It’s ridiculous. I shake my head indifferently, thinking that they don’t know that my relationship with James is more complicated.
I could not help frowning. What is James trying to do? Why does he have to interview me?
We haven’t seen each other for a long time.
According to the scheduled time, I go to James’s home.
This is a private villa group, the most upscale residential area in the city, a large forest, a golf course, supporting top-level services, a private hospital, a supermarket, and so on.
The sun is very strong, and I am sweating with my utensils. When I think of seeing James like this for a while, I panicked.
“You can set aside for a while and look at me. I’ll just ask a question, you know?” Mandy quickly adds makeup. The delicate makeup makes me an ugly woman.
“Mandy, can you take down the equipment, and I will also refresh my makeup.” I pass the things in my hand.
Mandy looks at herself in the mirror, smiles with satisfaction, and gives me a grimace, “Carol, you are already beautiful enough, and then you have already become so familiar with James. But I am not, don’t want to be looked down on.”
I stand aside and look at her awkwardly. I don’t know what to say. We are a colleague. Why does she hate me so much because of this interview by James?
“Some people rely on the rich and don’t take their predecessors into account. Also, we should be blamed. Without your seductive ability, how could James have agreed to your request so happily?” Mandy even points at my nose and scold me, so she scolded by pointing at my nose.
“Mandy, stop talking.” Lily carefully stops Mandy.
Mandy pats Lily’s hand and snorts, “Why can’t I say it! I hate such a fake woman! Obviously we all go to apply for interviews, and she uses tricks to do what we should not do!”
She must have thought I grab her for an interview, but when I ask for someone for accompanying me, she follows me shamelessly.
“This lady.” A low voice suddenly sounds behind us.
We all turn back.
James looks at Mandy, the cold light in his eyes flashed.
“James!” Mandy walks close to him enthusiastically, James avoids her without a trace, his eyes are cold and boring.
He turns to look at me, his eyes become gentle, and takes out a handkerchief, and wipes lightly on my sweaty forehead.
“It’s that hot? I should send someone to pick you up.”
I freeze and stare at James blankly.
James, why do you do this? To help me save face?
Mandy’s face suddenly becomes unsightly, and she grits her teeth and looks at me.
And I don’t know why there is a kind of relief.
James makes people pick up the equipment in my hand, and his eyes have been staring at me as if to tell the world that this woman is his.
James smiles and puts my wet and messy hair behind my ears, and says softly, “I say you don’t have to work at the newspaper office, and you don’t listen to me?” James’s eyes seem to have a glance at Mandy as if warning her not to play tricks.
I see that Mandy’s body shaking obviously, and she is probably scared.
“Okay, let’s hurry up for an interview.” I smile gratefully at James. After all, we are so rigid before. I don’t expect James to help me, maybe he already knows how to make me really grateful.
The sun is fierce, and James seems to be shining in front of me. He easily meets my vanity. Any woman hopes that she would be liked by an excellent man.
I know that this kind of thought is annoying and disgusting. There is no clear relationship between me and James, but I covet the happiness he brings to me.
The equipment is well arranged, and I can interview soon. James changes into a suit. The well-cut suit gives him a clear view of his body.
I am so fascinated by him.
“James, may we interview now?” Mandy opens the recording pen and smiles humbly.
James sits on the sofa with his hands folded on his legs as if staring at Mandy with a look of indifference.
“I remember I refused you before. I said that the only person who could interview me is Miss Carol.” James spreads his hands and points to me, “Now you can go out, only me and her are here.”
What are you guys? He seems to be saying that.
