There was only drinking water left in his fridge. How did he survive without her being around these days?
Leaving the thought behind, she went to the bedroom and packed up her clothes. She hadn't managed to bring any of them with her when she was driven out by Zed. She grabbed her purse and clothes before leaving.
She suddenly remembered that there's no food in the fridge. What if he had nothing to eat when he came back?
In the end, she decided to bring her belongings home first and go to the supermarket in the evening after work, to buy some food to fill his fridge. Zed didn't come into her room and drive her away last night. It probably meant she still had a chance to talk him through about the photographs.
She couldn't give up!
Since she got back her belongings, she also had the key to the villa. So she could come and go as she pleased. She deposited some money into Ethan's account and paid part of her loan back to him.
...
There was a new stuff who joined the company today. Her name was Maranda Qin and she's gorgeous.
Her seat was opposite of Jean's. She's passionate and asked Jean a lot of questions.
At noon, she insisted Jean to have lunch with her.
At a restaurant nearby
Maranda passed Jean a glass of water and smiled, exposing her perfect teeth, "Jean, you joined the company a month earlier than me. You must know much more, right?"
"What would you like to know?" She received the water and took a sip.
"Nothing actually. I just want to get familiar with our company." Maranda pursed her lips in a cute way. Her big eyes were moving around as though she was scheming.
Jean was fond of the girl in front of her. She looked like a doll and her every expression was adorable. She's enthusiastic and kind as well. On first sight, Jean could tell that she was innocent and naive. She didn't have any bad office political experience.
Jean just loved to befriend someone like this.
"Look, that man is so handsome." Maranda suddenly hold onto her fingers and pointed to a man in front of them with excitement.
Her good impression was gone in a few seconds when Jean realized that Maranda was easily infatuated.
Looking towards the direction that she pointed, Jean found the man in sight was John.
Jean paused for a second. Hadn't Maranda seen John yet? Right. Of course she hadn't, she only just joined the company.
John was walking towards them. Maranda watched him with admiration in her eyes. She was stunned when she saw him walk to them. She turned to Jean and asked, "Do you know each other?"
Her expression was so funny that Jean couldn't help but laugh. She explained to her, "He also works at our company. He's our boss' assistant."
"Assistant?" Maranda moved her fingers quickly and blinked. Then she moved aside deliberately to make space for another seating.
Even though they had known each other for only several hours, there was a mutual understanding between them.
Jean nodded her head and then waved her hand to John, who was not far away.
"John, have you had your lunch? How about joining us? Sit here."
After John approached them, he took a glimpse at Maranda and then sat beside her unfazed. He looked at Jean and asked, "Is this a new colleague?"
"Yes."
"Hi, I'm Maranda Qin." She introduced herself immediately. Her cute smiling face was like a red apple.
"Hi." He pursed his lips, saying nothing more to her. He turned to Jean, "I'll help you with the photographs."
Jean shook her head and signed deeply, "It won't change anything even if you did." With Zed's personality, she knew nothing would change regardless of who's dealing with it.
"Then what should we do?"
