Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 500

Ella's cell phone rang. It was a WeChat message from Samuel, "I'll eat out with my client later. Get something to eat by yourself."

With a sweet smile, she replied "OK."

On second thought, she texted, "Will you come back to the company in the afternoon?" If he came back, maybe they could get off work together this evening.

Before Samuel replied, something bad happened: the computer suddenly had a breakdown... Come on! The document with nearly 10, 000 words hadn't been saved yet!

Ella anxiously checked the computer, wondering where the problem was.

"The power is off. Alas, let's go to have lunch!" Hearing the complaint of her colleague in front, she was dumbstruck.

Her cell phone rang, but she ignored it.

Come on, she could only type no more than 3, 000 words per hour. It cost her nearly five hours to type 10, 000 words… She wanted to cry now.

Though sad, she decided to fill her belly.

She ate something in a restaurant and started to work again.

This time she became alert and saved every 1, 000 words. At over four p.m., Jenifer, the secretary of Catherine walked over, "Ella, Catherine asked me to fetch the printed data."

Ella printed out the documents retyped and handed it to Jenifer.

After a short time, Jenifer returned and told her what Catherine said, "Ella, these documents are urgently needed, but you only typed 10, 000 words in one day. You have to work overtime!"

"I could have typed more, but the power was off at noon. I didn't save what I had typed, so it was so slow." Ella explained with embarrassment.

Jenifer looked at her doubtfully, "The power was off? Why wasn't it off in my office? Just admit that you haven't finished it. Don't make an excuse." She used to have a good impression on Ella, but it was gone completely now.

Ella could say nothing. Fine, she typed too slowly, so she shouldn't make an excuse but worked overtime!

She sat back in her chair and began to type another document.

It was getting dark. Other colleagues had got off work. Catherine turned off the lamp in her office and was about to go home.

Seeing that Ella was still typing in the corner, she sneered. Being my secretary? She is asking for trouble!'

She had to work overtime due to power outage today. Tomorrow she would suffer in another way!

The normal time to get off work was 6 p.m. Ella worked overtime till 10 p.m., but she had just finished two documents.

She stood up to relieve the pain in her body and glanced around the office. She was the only one working overtime.

She decided to type the last document tomorrow. Anyway, she had worked overtime for four hours. Making up her mind, she packed up her things and left the office.

After getting on a taxi, she checked her cell phone. A message from Samuel was unread on WeChat.?He wouldn't return to the company today.

He didn't contact her though she hadn't returned to the apartment. Probably he hadn't gone home yet!

She ate something alone outside. On the way home, she wanted to make a call to Melody to listen to Jerry's voice. She looked at the time. It was past 11 p.m. Melody must have been asleep.

She put her cell phone back into the handbag. Suddenly, the man and the woman who embraced each other near the apartment caught her attention, because that man looked much like Samuel...

She looked at them for one minute. They still embraced each other. She trembled out, "Samuel."

The man wanted to turn around upon hearing her voice, but the woman in his arms held his face and kissed him on tiptop.
