Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 504

The water wasn't very hot. The girl just wanted to pull a prank, but still, it caught Yelena by surprise, and she gasped.

Yelena looked at her slightly reddened finger. "What are you doing? Why'd you splash the water on me?" She's vindictive.

"I didn't. You just weren't holding it well." The girl put on a pouty look. She was acting very differently from how she was earlier.

"You're pushing the blame on me?" Yelena shot her a glare.

However, before she could say anything, a cold yet familiar voice came from behind her. "Didn't expect a troublemaker in my firm."

Yelena shot up and turned around. The voice belonged to Hank, who stood before her at the moment. He was wearing a suit, and he looked tired. Worried, Yelena said, "Hank, I—"

"What do you want?" There was not a hint of love in the man's eyes. There was only formality.

"Nothing. I'm just here to see you. I know I shouldn't have given you attitude, so I came to say sorry." She hung her head low and curled up a little. Every time she did something wrong, she would do the same thing and act like a child who did something wrong. Hank would forgive her every time. Well, not this time. All he did was look at her coldly.

"Done? Now, leave."

Yelena looked at him in disbelief. She noticed the distant look in his eyes, and it pained her. "Do you hate me that much?"

"No. I just don't want to see you."

Tears welled up in her eyes. "Please, don't be so distant. I'm sorry."

"Why do you think I should be nice to you?" Hank seemed to have lost all patience as he said, "You don't have to come to work anymore. I'll have someone pack your stuff and send it your way."

"I—"

"Now, leave. Unless you have something else to do." He turned a little to look at her. "Just don't show up in front of me ever again."

Yelena felt something squeezing her heart. She saw Hank off and tried to say something, but not a single word came out of her mouth.

"Told you he wouldn't see you. You just had to do it."

The girl spared Yelena a look of pity. That was the first time she saw Hank being so harsh. He might be aloof, but he was always polite. Yet, he didn't even show any patience with Yelena. She's quite pitiful, I suppose.

Yelena wanted to cry, but she wouldn't do that in front of this girl and certainly not in front of the public.
