Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 121

"You!"

Having not expected her to be so stubborn, Lexie had no choice but to leave while holding back her anger.

After she left, Minh knocked on the door and entered. He handed over the file to Isabella and then asked worriedly: "Did that Miss Perez make things difficult to you? She looked extremely terrible when she left. "

Minh had already known they were in discord after the cold coffee event. Moreover, Isabella was pregnant at that time and Lexie used to be Christian's secretary, it was not hard for him to imply something.

Isabella laughed unconcernedly, "She didn't get what she wants, so naturally she wasn't very happy?"

"What did she want?" Minh suddenly became excited.

"…"

Isabella went silent for a second, then said: "Don't look at me like a gossiper.You should have interview her just now."

Minh laughed, "You just hurt her hurt. If I do it once again, I think she will slap me on face."

Isabella pursed her lips, "Cunning bird. Alright, go back to work. I'm okay."

"Oh, okay." Minh nodded. Suddenly, He looked at her and smiled, "Miss Jones, tomorrow you can dress whatever you want. Don't have to be so formal. Be relax. I definitely won't force you to drink."

Thinking that he was probably taking care of her, she gently smiled, "Except drinking, anything else is fine. Otherwise, they may be suspicious."

If he were to be considered as flattering his superior and had a glib tongue, it won't be 

"Okay, got it."

...

On the next day after work, Isabella drove the car to the reserved restaurant with a few subordinates. 

Considering it as a relaxation after a busy few days, Isabella also felt relieved and enjoyed the food. 

When everyone raised their glasses, Isabella took a glass of juice. With an apologetic smile, she said, "I have to go to the hospital later, so I'm afraid I can't drink this time. But I won't spoil the mood. Cheers."

Minh stood up first with a smile, "It's fine, Miss Jones. We can drink some other time."

"That's right, cheers!"

"Yes, cheers! Minh, congratulations!"

"…"

After that, the entire room was bustling with noise and excitement. Everyone drank and laughed. Even though Isabella couldn't drink wine, she still had a lot of soft drinks. For several times, Minh wanted to help her but she rejected him.

For those people who didn't know the real reason, they may have misunderstandings seeing Minh help her. She didn't want him to get into trouble. 

At the end of the meal, she stood up and said with a smile, "You guys drink. I'll go to the washroom."

"Miss Jones, have you drunk too much?" Someone was drunk and started to joke with her.
