Ex-husband, Please Respect Yourself novel Chapter 156

"Hello, Mr. Black!"

Cathy politely reached out her hand.

"Manger Lawson , let the people in your department relax and enjoy themselves." Mr. Black laughed heartily.

Cathy smiled. "It’s estimated that I didn't arrive just now, so they are afraid of losing their manners. I will criticize them soon."

Mr. Black pointed the group of young men and women who were frolicking in front of them and praised Cathy: "Manager Lawson is a good leader. Look at my staff,childish and crazy. Please don’t laugh at us.”

"Youth should be like this, be serious about work and be outgoing on free time. Mr. Black is the most open-minded leader. On the contrary, People in my department are always afraid of me."

Cathy smiled briskly ,and the flattery in her tone was unconspicuous.

Then before Mr. Black, she quickly turned to Nick, and said: "Let them not be cautious, go to meet some new friends and, and don't care too much about me."

Nick nodded, turned and walked away.

Mr. Black’s eyes flashed slightly, and his forehead reflected the light. He suddenly smiled at her: “Manager Lawson, let young people play together. Could you have seat with me for a while?”

Cathy had no reason to refuse, just nodded politely, "OK, please."

She was only in her twenties. Was she old?

There was a couch next to them, so they went to sit.

Mr. Black waved, and the waiter brought two glasses of red wine to come over.

Cathy’s eyes changed slightly, but she concealed her emotion well.

Mr. Black held two glasses with both hands. Then he acted like a gentleman and gave her a cup, "Manager Lawson."

Cathy smiled and took it. She touched his lightly, pretended to make a small sip, and then put it down. "Mr. Black, you can also play with them."

"No, I’m old." The man held the glass and touched his chin. then he sighed with emotion. "If I am ten years younger, I will definitely play with them. However, the elegant and beautiful lady like Manager Lawson, should be the most dazzling in the audience."

Cathy’s face got red naturally, pretending to be ashamed and bowed. "Mr. Black, thank you for your compliment. This kind of occasion belongs to young people. I was married."

After working for a few years, she didn’t learn anything else, but she could judge people better. Especially for this old man with a hypocritical look,she could easily distinguish what was true or false. When she had arrived, this man’s eyes had never moved away from her.

She didn’t believe that he would still be interested in a married woman.

“Is Manager Lawson married?” Sure enough, Mr. Black was a little surprised.

Cathy also pretended to be in a daze, and quickly smiled carelessly. "I thought everyone knew it. I got divorced few days ago."

Self-destruction was often a means of protecting oneself, and she didn’t care much about this bad image.

"Got divorced? Manager Lawson really dares to love and hate. You are so young, and certainly can encounter a better man." A trace of coldness crossed in Mr. Black’s eyes, but his smile was still gentle and the tone was still cordial.

"I think so too." Cathy was not modest at all, revealing a bit of savvy and arrogant. She curved her red lips, and took the initiative to raise the glass to touch his. She asked softly and calmly. "Does Mr. Black have children? ”

In this kind of occasion, it’s not appropriate to talk about work, so if you plan to avoid the other person's misconduct, of course home was the best topic.

Mr. Black didn’t expect that she would suddenly start this topic, stunned, thinking for a while, and laughing, "I have two and both are in junior high school."

"One boy and one girl?"

"Yes."

Cathy was really surprised. "You are really a winner in life. You both have a successful career and a pair of good children."

She didn't forget to remind him while she was flattering.
