For a few days, Lauren didn't see Matthew, and all she did was accompany herself every day with the various tasks Matthew had assigned.
What I heard in my ears was the news that Matthew and Emily were in and out together. Although there was some heartache, the baby inside her belly and the work in front of her accompanied her, which more or less relieved the pain in her heart.
"Lauren, this is something the president just handed down, you need to have these statements ready by the time the president gets to work tomorrow morning."
Chen Haising took a large pile of documents in his hand and slammed them on Lauren's desk. Looking at the mountain of information in front of her, Lauren had a headache.
"Chen Haixing, are you sure all this work is going to be done tonight?"
The mountain of work at hand really filled Lauren with suspicion, not sure that all these jobs were handed down by Matthew.
"Of course it is the president's orders, and there are some Miss. Shangguan's orders in the work, because we all have to leave work, so these jobs can only be given to you to do, Lauren, I really sympathize with you, not only the president is squeezing you. Even Miss. Shangguan has been bullying you, if anything, it seems that you will have a lot to suffer in the future."
Chen Haixing had a gloating face. Looked at Lauren smugly.
"Okay, you can go out, I'll get this information done before the president leaves work tomorrow."
Chen Haixing snorted coldly and turned to leave.
Lauren had to pick up the file and look at it carefully. Carefully, he tapped on the computer.
Until dark, there were still a lot of papers on the table, Lauren really felt tired, she picked up the lunch box packed for Matthew at noon, and simply ate a few bites so that the baby inside her stomach, could have a good living environment. She herself went to the floor-to-ceiling window to relax her nervousness a little.
Then focused on the computer again, crackling and tapping away, unaware of the time flying by.
When Matthew walked out of the office, he looked at Lauren, who was lying on her computer with a tired face.
He walked gingerly to Lauren's front. Looking at the dense numbers on it, Matthew's face changed dramatically.
Damn, who gave her so much to do?
The anger in Matthew's heart grew stronger as he gently slapped Lauren's shoulder.
The strength on his shoulder made Lauren, who had just fallen asleep, stand up with a 'teng'. The hands and feet are busy looking at the documents in front of them.
"Lauren, come to your senses."
The exhaustion on Lauren's face made Matthew's heart ache a little.
"It's you? Didn't you go on a date with Emily?"
Seeing Matthew in front of her, Lauren was really surprised because Chen Haixing had said that tonight, Matthew would not go back to the office. Instead, he and Emily would go to the top of the mountain to watch the sunrise.
"Why are you still working at the office at this late hour? You don't care about your own body, but also about the baby inside your belly, which is my Matthew's baby."
There was some anger in Matthew's heart about Lauren being so late and still working at the office.
"Isn't this the work you handed me Matthew, it's really strange that you handed me so much work yourself and asked me to get the statement to you before you start work tomorrow morning and now you're blaming me for working late."
Lauren rubbed her eyes, which were a little sore.
"What I have entrusted to you?"
Looking at the many unread documents in front of him, Matthew's heart fluttered.
"Of course, when Chen Haixing handed these jobs over to me. That's what it said, isn't it something you gave me to do?"
It was only at this point that Lauren felt that something was not quite right.
"Well, we'll do all this work tomorrow. Let's go home now, you must not have been able to eat dinner?"
Lauren gave a light smile and pointed to the half-eaten bento next to her.
"This was originally a bento for you at noon, but Emily said you had already eaten, so I was going to save it for myself to eat while I was working late. I ate some just now, and now I'm not very hungry."
Lauren said honestly.
"Let's go to dinner, don't you always like to go to French restaurants? Let's go now."
Matthew took Lauren's hand and headed out of the office.
"Matthew, are you sick?"
Matthew's reaction today made Lauren really weird, and her hands naturally went to her forehead.
"I'm not sick, well, now go have dinner, I'm a little hungry."
Matthew also wondered a bit about his behavior this evening, after all, it was not in line with his usual dealings.
"Aren't these documents put away? There seems to be a lot of trade secrets in there."
Lauren pointed to the papers on the table and addressed Matthew.
"No need to collect it. Put it away for now, and it's company, no one will dare to break in on their own." Lauren nodded, turned around and walked back to her office, grabbed her small bag, and left the office.
Leaving the office, they went straight to a French restaurant. The meal was very enjoyable and there was no quarrel. But Lauren definitely did not expect a bigger storm that was waiting for her. It made her suffer even more.
Elegant environment. The detailed atmosphere, the aroma of the meal, everything is so perfect. Looking at Matthew, who was sitting across from her, with the aura of a king around him, Lauren's face, always kept an elegant and faint light smile.
"Is it good? Want to order some more desserts."
Looking at the dessert in front of Lauren, who had already eaten most of it, Matthew asked gently.
A gentle smile. It gave Lauren a feeling of being flattered. She really had the illusion that what was happening in front of her was all in her dreams, and only in her dreams would Matthew treat herself so gently and care for her.
"Matthew, are you sure that's me sitting across from you right now Lauren?"
The corners of Matthew's mouth, slightly hooked up. If it were not for such an occasion, he would really like to laugh out loud. This woman, sometimes is really naive in a silly way.
"Lauren, listen up, I'm pretty sure now that the woman sitting across from me is named Lauren. and the woman who is about to face a lot of reporters."
Matthew stood up and walked to Lauren's side, his warm breath instantly surrounded Lauren, whose face, immediately rendered a layer of red.
Lauren looked up and clearly saw a hint of evil in Matthew's brilliantly handsome smile.
"What do you mean by facing a multitude of initiatives?Matthew, are you planning something again?"
The evil smile on Matthew's face made Lauren's heart, with the slightest uneasiness, completely replaced the elation of earlier.
"What do you say?"
Matthew did not answer Lauren's words positively, but instead the smile on his lips deepened.
