Marcel looked at her with a scrutiny gaze, "I have something to ask for you. When will the boss arrange a job and the subordinate can refuse it at will?"
Rae was startled, and smiled very calmly, "I'm sorry, I won't do it anymore!"
Her eyes were so peaceful, she was not nervous at all, and she was not at all disturbed by being criticized.
Marcel squinted his eyes slightly and stared at her blankly.
"You have improved!" he said suddenly.
Rae was startled and puzzled.
He suddenly said, “your level of lying is becoming more and more mature, and now you even don't change your face!"
As he said, he suddenly stood up and walked over, with a sense of oppression.
Rae's heart shook and stopped breathing. She didn't know what he was going to do.
She stood at the door and did not close the door.
Regardless of whether everyone can see it, he said naturally, "Let me listen, isn't your heart beating fast!"
Rae hadn't reacted yet, Marcel had lowered his head and leaned against her chest. Seeing him like this, Rae couldn't get rid of him, and was annoyed. She said, "No matter how powerful I am, I can’t compare with Captain Hopkins!"
When he leaned in just now, there was a faint perfume smell on his body, not very strong, but always surrounded her, it was very fascinating. Probably last night, he probably spent the night with the beautiful woman. Although she had been mentally prepared for a long time, when she heard him say this, she was suddenly repelled.
She didn't like the smell of other people's perfumes. The perfume should be a high-end product. Rae didn't use it, but she can know it by smelling! Women who can use this perfume were probably also high-end.
Marcel frowned when he heard her say that. "Rae, do you want to quarrel?"
Rae smiled faintly. "I just don’t know whether Captain Hopkins is speaking to me in your own name or as a senior? I think Captain Hopkins does not distinguish what is your own and what is public! I asked for leave at noon and you approved it before. I came to the unit, but didn’t cancel the leave, I left in a hurry because I have something to do. You called me, but did not say that I must stay. I cancel the leave now! By the way, Captain Hopkins, do you have work arrangements for me? If not, I will go back to work."
Rae said something that was neither quick nor slow, neither humble nor overbearing, so indifferent.
But this tone made Marcel very unacceptable. "Are you laughing at me, public and private?"
"I don't dare!" Rae shook her head. "I'm just telling the truth! Can't I even tell the truth? Captain Hopkins, if I can't tell, I'll shut up!"
This attitude, like soft thorns, did not hurt people, but it was very uncomfortable to pierce people!
"..." Marcel was speechless for a while.
This woman's sophistry was really great. When did she learn it? Or she was born with a sharp tooth, but her nature was suppressed.
"I'm telling you a personal matter now!" Marcel said in a dull voice, he wanted to see how she changed her face.
Rae smiled when he said that. The smile was faintly alienated. She thought Ophelia could be cheeky, so could she. She had done that before when she was in school, now, she also could do it. In front of Marcel, as long as she had a thick skin, she will be fine!
"Okay! Marcel Hopkins!" Rae changed her tone, but called him by first name and last name, which made him even more uncomfortable!
"Can't you call me Marcel?" He thought that was an intimate relationship.
Rae was stunned, and inexplicably remembered the voice she heard on the phone last night. The woman called him "Marcel". Rae was a little bit resistant when she thought of this, and shook her head. It was too close. Their relationship was not so close!
"Sorry, I'm not a girl who can act coquettishly, I can't call such a disgusting name!"
Marcel had no idea that she would answer like this. "You have a sharp tongue!"
Rae smiled, "If it's okay, I'll just shut up and go to work!"
"Rae, what the hell are you angry about?" Marcel thought it was Rae who was losing her temper. He really couldn't spoil this woman. They had only been a couple for a day, and she pulled a long face.
"I am not angry! I don't know why you asked me that. I'm curious, how do you feel that I'm angry?" Rae spread her hands and smiled unhurriedly, "I think you sometimes are really too confident. Overconfidence is a bit arrogant! I’m an independent individual, not a robot, and can’t completely dominated by you!"
Hearing this, Marcel completely knew that Rae was difficult with him.
Suddenly he took a step back, straightened his body, and looked at Rae condescendingly. His eyes were filled with inquisitiveness. After a long time, he changed his expression and asked lazily, "Your ability to lie has improved a lot now. Rae, you are getting better at acting!"

the writing is quite childish, but maybe it's just the translations...
