She had no idea if the person had intentionally squeezed her hard twice.
Slap!
After regaining her composure, the beautiful lady opened her eyes and gave Harold a forceful slap as she glared at him. She gritted her teeth before yelling, “Pervert! Take your filthy hands off me!”
What's wrong with this woman? I just saved her, and yet she repaid me with a slap!
Harold glanced at where his hands were grabbing after hearing her words. Only then did he realize what was going on.
He couldn't believe he was mistaken as a pervert who had taken the opportunity to take advantage of her.
“I'm sorry. It was all too fast. I didn't mean it.”
As he spoke, Harold withdrew his hands.
However, the beautiful lady was still dizzy because of the twirl earlier. She lost her balance when Harold withdrew his hands.
“Watch out!”
Harold had no choice but to pull her back into his embrace.
It was then he suddenly felt the body of the beauty in his arms stiffen, and she was red from her face to her neck.
He looked down and realized his hands had crossed the line again.
“W-Will you believe me if I say I still didn't mean it this time?”
Harold was drowned in shame.
“Harold, what are you guys doing?”
Whitney walked out of the kitchen with a container in her hand.
The beautiful lady immediately leaped out of Harold's embrace and held the cashier counter to steady herself.
“Nothing. This beauty nearly fell, and I reached out to steady her,” Harold replied.
“I see. Your pumpkin soup is ready, young lady.”
Whitney passed the container in her hand to the beautiful lady.
“Hmph! Don't let me see you again, or I'm going to make you pay!”
After taking the container, the beautiful lady glared at Harold and left Whitney's Place.
Harold watched her exit Whitney's Place and leave in a Bentley.
He didn't think much about it and left as usual once his soup was ready.
It had been many days since Harold had been to work. He did not even apply for any leave before that. When he arrived at the office the next day, he found all his colleagues shooting him a strange look.
“Why are you all looking at me like this? Is there something on my face?”
Harold was confused.
“Hey, Mr. Quinn has been promoted back to the position of manager. We have a new pretty supervisor ten days ago. She wants you to meet her once you come back to the office,” the colleague sitting next to Harold whispered.
“It's just a new supervisor. All of you don't have to look at me like this. I'll go to her now and see who exactly she is.” Harold seemed unbothered.
Shortly after, he knocked on the door of the supervisor's office.
“Come in.”
A pleasant female voice echoed from the supervisor's office.
Somehow, Harold found it a little familiar.
Without giving it much thought, he pushed open the door of the supervisor's office.
Just as soon as he saw the new supervisor sitting behind the desk, he quickly closed the door.
The new pretty female supervisor turned out to be the beautiful lady he had met at Whitney's Place the night before.
Harold tiptoed back to his desk and turned on the computer that was covered in dust.
The warning left by that beautiful lady that night still reverberated in his ears.
