However, Shirley didn't make a mistake. The person who went out just now was Samuel's assistant. He was in a hurry to meet a client, so he didn't greet Shirley.
When the assistant came back, he told Samuel that he had met Shirley. There was a one-meter gap in the middle of the coffee shop. Samuel was on the other side, while Shirley and David were in front of the French window. When he heard what his assistant had told him, he raised his head and found that Shirley was talking and laughing with a strange man happily. He had never seen such a happy look before. Immediately, his heart was filled with anger. He wanted to rush in front of Shirley and take her away. How could she smile so happily to others?
But there was a client waiting for him, so he had to hold back his anger. When he was talking with clients, he was absent-minded and couldn't help glancing at the window.
After the meeting was settled, he asked his assistant to send the client away.
After thinking for a while, he didn't go straight to them, but quietly sat in the back seat of Shirley. David didn't know him, so he didn't feel strange. Samuel thought that only by knowing oneself and enemy could he win in every battle. He must know the enemy's plan first.
Samuel ordered a cup of coffee and pretended to look at his laptop, but he kept listening to the sound over there.
Although Samuel usually looked cold and heartless, his heart became softer and softer after he met Shirley. This woman seemed to have a magnetic field that pulled him closer to her and made him want to know the real her.
Samuel listened for a long time. But it was a little far away. So he just vaguely heard them mentioning the university several times. It seemed that they were classmates in the University. But there was no need for her to see her college classmate alone, let alone a man. What's more, Samuel heard Shirley's laughter continuously, which irritated him deeply. When she was with him, she just smiled when she was in a good mood, and when she was in a bad mood or misunderstood him, she was in a cold face. But she was talking so happily with a man now.
Samuel couldn't stand it anymore. He stood up and walked to their table. David and Shirley looked up when they felt someone was approaching them. David had just returned home, so he didn't know Samuel very well. But Shirley was different. They met each other every day. Her pupils suddenly dilated. Why was he here?
Oh, by the way, it seemed that she didn't recognize the wrong person. The man she saw just now was his assistant. 'How could it be such a coincidence to meet you here?' She thought.
"Why are you here?" Shirley asked with a guilty conscience. She didn't know why, but she always had a feeling that Samuel was "catching adultery". But she actually had nothing to do with David.
"I'm here to talk about business." Samuel was still as cold as usual. But if you looked at him carefully, you would find that he frowned slightly. This was the expression of Samuel when he was angry. Because of the experience when he was a child, his expression change was very slight.
"Don't you want to introduce this sir to me, Shirley?" David said. He had just seen the man's appearance, dressing, and temperament, which was different from others, giving people an invisible deterrent.
"This is Mr. Samuel of the Ji Group." Shirley briefly introduced him, not mentioning her relationship with him. Because she had told David that she had married Samuel. Besides, it was too embarrassing for her to tell David that he was her husband.
However, Samuel didn't know it. He just thought that she was hiding something from him. 'Did she and this man...' Samuel thought that women were really ungrateful. He had just stood up for her that day, but now she turned against him.
"Ah! You are Mr. Samuel. I've heard a lot about you." David said, but his eyes were dim. He just wanted to have a talk with the person he once loved, but he met him unexpectedly.
David immediately reached out his hand to shake hands with Samuel, but when Samuel shook hands with him, he deliberately clenched David's hand when Shirley didn't notice them, but soon let go.
David sensed that, but he didn't say anything. He thought to himself, 'maybe Mr. Samuel has misunderstood something. He looked at me as if his deadly enemy at the first sight. It's really hard to say. I can only endure it silently and see if there is a proper time to explain it clearly.'
Samuel shook hands with him and said, "Hello, I'm Shirley's husband." Samuel deliberately put a heavy accent on the word "husband", as if declaring his sovereignty. Samuel's voice was as deep and magnetic as a cello. When he spoke out the word "husband", her heart trembled, and she felt his ears numb...
But Shirley was frightened, because Samuel had never said such words. At first, she thought they were just strangers who lived together for their own interests. But after he said in front of everyone that she was his woman last time, Shirley's heart for him changed. But just now, he said he was her husband. It was really frightening for Samuel to say that. But at the same time, Shirley felt that her heart was as sweet as honey. 'No, I can't. I'm not the real Shirley. Sooner or later, I'll leave.' She told herself this in her heart to restrain her overflowing feelings.
"What? Don't you want me to sit down?" Samuel asked. What he was thinking was that he wanted to see what you were talking about when he sat here.
Shirley was frightened by his words just now. She sat on another chair in a hurry. At this time, two red clouds flew up on Shirley's cheeks and her ears became red. Samuel was very satisfied with her reaction.
