When their sights met, the air almost burnt up. The sound of incineration could be heard. The air stayed stagnant.
Euan’s body was cold. William showed a sense of gentleness. Riley stayed between them, she smiled awkwardly at the moment.
“Euan,”
In the silent and serious space, Riley called his name. Then, she gave a signal to William and walked towards him.
Euan looked at William with no expression, he stretched out his hand to open the door of the co-driver seat. Riley lowered her head and entered the car. When Euan stood up, he looked at William again, a sense of fire was triggered between the two men.
William kept smiling, he did not feel guilty at all.
But he noticed that Euan had treated Riley differently.
So, Dr. Hardesty would try his best too.
He nodded to her and gave a signal to her to be careful all the way. Euan did not show any expression on his cold face.
After getting up the car, he started the engine. He moved his steering and left the carpark.
William watched the luxurious car leaving while he stood still and frowned.
Just then, William’s phone rang.
William frowned when he saw the incoming call and picked up the call.
“William, are you busy recently? I have a business trip to China, if you have free time, we can have a meal together.”
“I am very busy recently. If you want to have a meal with me, wait for me to go home first.”
“Go home? You’re in China now, if I wait for you to go home, am I going to starve? You go to China and even become a doctor…”
“Dad, you have given me permission. So, it is unnecessary to repeat again right?”
“Alright, but you’re not young anymore, it’s time to find a girlfriend, right? You can’t procrastinate this matter.”
Girlfriend?
William raised his head and looked out of the window, “On the way, I will have a girlfriend soon. If everything is going smoothly, you will see her soon.”
“Really? That’s great, quickly find a girlfriend, get married and give birth to a baby. She should be a simple and virginal woman.”
They ended the casual call. William had a headache.
His parent had a simple wish. They hoped that his future wife must be simple, virginal and had a plain background.
Sorry, he had to disobey his parent.
Euan drove his Rolls-Royce speedily with anger. After keeping silent for a while, Euan sneered coldly, “Don’t you want to explain to me the matter that happened just now?”
“What happened just now? I just get in the elevator with my colleague, what should I explain? Should I inform you what did I eat for the whole day?”
Euan had a strong prejudice against William, she should not mention William at all.
Euan held the steering with his long fingers, his side face revealed a sense of coldness. The streetlamp from both sides of the road reflected on him, it made his side face flickering and looked gorgeous.
“That’s great. Say it out.”
He wanted her to report everything?
When the traffic light turned green, the car stopped abruptly. He braked all of a sudden, Riley moved forward due to inertia. Then, she bounced backwards, her back banged on the chair.
“There are too many trivial things that happened, it will be a long story.”
“I have time now, I am available to listen to your words no matter how long you want to say.”
Euan rested his fingers on the steering, the number on the traffic red light was counting down. Euan seemed to look at something deeply. She did not know what did he mean.
If he wanted to listen, she would tell him, “I have my breakfast with you, then you should know what have we eaten…”
“Why do you tangle with him?” Euan frowned and interrupted her words. He allowed her to say then she really did it! She was upsetting him.
Riley bit her lips, “I do not tangle with him, we are just colleague as what you have seen.”
What he had seen was not that simple!
The traffic light turned green after the red light, Euan did not want to move the car. In two seconds, the cars behind them started to beep the horn, “Whoever in front, move your car!”
Euan held the steering carelessly, “Tell me the truth.”
If she did not explain it clearly, he would not drive the car and let the cars behind wait for them!
Riley looked at the queue behind, “Euan, are you crazy? Drive it, it is green light now, you’re blocking the traffic.”
“It’s you who spoil my mood to drive. If my mood is bad, I will not only block the traffic, I will cause a car accident to happen.”
Riley was furious, the green light will stop counting down soon. The people behind started to scold.
“He wanted to invite me for a meal but I received your message, so I rejected his invitation. After that, we got in the elevator and met you downstairs! That’s all! Are you satisfied now?!”
She explained everything at one shot angrily without gasping.
Euan did not speak, he drove his car steadily. His car passed by the junction. Her chest moved up and down greatly when she was in anger. When she was upset, she bulged her cheeks and made her face circle, she looked so adorable.
“So, you mean if I don’t contact you, you will attend his invitation to go for dinner together?”
Damn, why he asked some more?!
“I don’t know!”
She stopped him from asking angrily.
Great, “Don’t know? Then you mean you will probably go?”
