"Miss Curry, this is the work you allotted to us. We have finished it." Amy and Hilary put their translated manuscripts in front of Zoe.
"It's all done? Very good. But you don't need to hand this over to me. Submit it to Mr. Carter. He will know you did the translation and will give you reward if you deserve." Zoe always had a hypocritical smile on her face.
Zoe was not stupid. Alisa once sent those translated manuscripts to Richard. He was unsatisfied and Alisa was harshly scolded. Zoe wanted Amy and Hilary to give their works to Richard by themselves. If Richard wasn’t satisfied, he would find out that they were useless.
When Amy and Hilary heard this, they were dumbfounded. Neither of them wanted to see Richard.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem with the translation? Why are you afraid?" Seeing that neither of them wanted to move, Zoe intentionally egged them.
"Alright, let's go together." Amy and Hilary resigned themselves to following the order.
It was not that the translation was in poor quality. They just didn't want to see Richard and Allison.
Hilary said to Amy, "Here we are. Amy, after I count from one to three, we'll go in together."
"Alright." To meet Richard was like going to a battlefield.
After Hilary finished counting, they opened the door and entered. Richard was working while Allison stayed beside him. It was true that men would not feel tired while working with the one they liked. It seemed that Richard quite enjoyed it.
"What is the matter?" When Richard saw them, especially Amy, he couldn’t help smiling.
"Miss Curry asked us to give you the translated manuscripts. She said that you needed it. This one was translated by me, and that one was translated by Hilary." Amy lowered her head and placed the documents on Richard's desk.
"You don't have to do this. Just tell me and I'll come down to get it. Anyway, I don't have much work to do here. Now you guys can go back to your work." Allison took the documents and was about to put them aside.
"No need. I want to see it right away. Allison, you may make a reservation for tonight." Richard sent Allison away with the excuse.
"Then Mr. Carter, we are leaving. If there's anything wrong, just tell us." Hilary was reluctant to see Allison, so she pulled Amy, intending to leave.
"Wait a moment!" Richard anxiously shouted. Amy and Hilary turned around, but he hadn't figured out what he should say. Allison also turned to look at him.
"Take this. Someone gave it to me. I don't like it. Take it as a reward." Richard took out a box of snacks from the drawer.
When he passed by a pastry shop this morning, he remembered that Amy liked the dessert in this shop and bought some. But then he realized that he didn't have a chance to give it to Amy. Since both of them had come, it was the right time.
"Thank you, Mr. Carter." Hilary took the snacks and pulled Amy away.
Richard continued working. He was going to meet his friends tonight, so he had to finish his work at hand.
However, Allison's eyes were filled with jealousy. She had been with Richard for several years, but he either gave her diamonds and jewelry or designer clothes and bags.
He had never given her flowers or snacks.
