Among these people, Sky is the most surprised.
In her impression, Luke is indeed a autocrat, but he is always impartial towards business affairs. For now, he is completely trying to protect one party and make unfair decision.
He is very protective towards Jenny, more than business-like.
So now is Jenny his weak spot?
Her face clouds.
Jenny is stunned for a long time. Her heart, which has been cold, goes boom heavily. Luke is obviously protecting her. She didn’t have the feeling of being protected for a long time, especially in front of so many people.
“It’ enough to have him protecting me. As for the rest, I am able to solve by myself.”
She takes a deep breath, reaches inside her bag for a long time, takes out a phone with broken screen and a card.
“Elizabeth, you have misunderstood me. Mr. Song gave me a card just because he accidentally broke my mobile phone. I will return this card to him after I buy a new one. As for my visit to him, you said it was collusion. I don’t know why you think in this way. As we all know, Mr. Song and I participated in a reality TV show together, and he was ill after recording it. It is not weird for me to pay a visit to him.”
The crowd boos.
Elizabeth looks embarrassed for a while. “It is impossible. I heard that Mr. Song was angry with Shawn and me because of you. It's all your fault,” she says through clenched teeth.
Jenny can’t deny that.
She frowns and is about to apologize when Shawn’s voice suddenly rings out from within the crowd and interrupts her.
“Elizabeth, how many times should I tell you? Don’t listen to the rumor. Who told that you it is Jenny’s fault?”
Shawn rushes through the crowd in a rage and pulls Elizabeth, “ the reason why director decided to replace you is because your flat acting. You not only transfer your anger on Jenny, but also make a fuss. Do you want to be banned by the company?”
Elizabeth’s face turned white instantly, “ Shawn, I’m not...”
“Now, go to the meeting room immediately and reflect on yourself for a night.”
Everyone in the company knows Shawn’s temper. She is a woman of her word. Elizabeth stands for a moment with tears in her eyes. Although she is not reconciled, she finally wipes her tears and goes to the elevator.
“Now, run along. Mr. Lu doesn’t have time to watch the joke,” Shawn glances at the crowd. After most of them leave, she bows in apology to Luke, “I’m sorry, Mr. Lu. I didn’t discipline Elizabeth well...”
Luke frowns and doesn’t respond.
“Jenny, come with me. I have something to talk with you.”
Shawn’s voice pulls Jenny back from her absence of mind. Cecelia carefully waves her hand and walks away. Jenny looks back at Luke and the beautiful woman beside him, and sighs.
“It’s such a shame. Every time, she is bright and beautiful, and I am in a mess. I am a far cry form her.”
“what are you thinking? Can you be mindful?” Shawn pulls her to the entrance of the corridor and scolds coldly.
Jenny stands respectfully and bows her head to get ready for punishment. “Shawn, I was wrong.”
“What wrong did you do? Do you know? Just tell me.”
“I should not conceal that I have offended Mr. Song. I should admit my mistake earlier and apologize, so that you and Elizabeth will not get any impact...”
“Shut up.”
Without finishing her words, with the pain of being knocked on her forehead, Jenny exclaims and looks up at Shawn, who has just pulled back her hand.
“Don’t worry...” Shawn clenches her fists and looks like she is going to fight with others. She pats Jenny on her shoulder, “do what you are supposed to do. Luke has been waiting for you for a long time. Go. And I’m going to the hospital.”
“Ah...”
Jenny stares after Shawn and couldn't stop her.
When Jenny thinks of Shawn’s words again, she is startled. When she looks towards the direction of Shawn, she found that there is a tall figure sitting on the sofa in the city hall.
A huge green plant blocks the position of half of the sofa, and she can only see a magazine on his slender knees, legs overlapping, and knuckled fingers holding the edge of the page, turning up one or two pages from time to time, which looks very elegant.
Luke is waiting for her.
Thinking of this, she is very happy, lifts the bag on her shoulder and runs towards that direction quickly.
“Luke, are you waiting...”
Before finishing her speaking, the plant’s cover disappears, which reveals Luke’s upper body and another woman sitting by his side.
Also holding a magazine in her hand, she occasionally leans to Luke and look at the book in his hands. Her nails are pained with dark red nail polish which makes her hands look white and smooth. Intentionally or not, she touches Luke’s hands occasionally, but he doesn't mind.
She gets hurt by simply looking at the images of them which look like a wonderful couple.
Jenny subconsciously slows down her pace, looks down at her outfit today, which is over casual.
It’s the most simple casual sportswear. Especially Jenny just worked out from the gym, so she is so smelly that she doesn’t want to touch herself neither.
“I lose completely!” This is the second time Jenny think about this today.
