Looking at Mrs. Liu's receding figure, Myra thought, 'The old lady always was so diligent. I was afraid that she would be tired and wanted her to have a rest, but she refused.
I wondered if I would be like this when I reached this age.'
She decided to watch TV! She wouldn't know it until later. It was useless to think about it now.
Looking at the phone she just took, she almost forgot that it was powered off last night. She hadn't turned on her phone yet.
She turned on her phone, thinking that no one should have called her. While thinking, there were several messages.
All the messages were from Justin. Alas! He was really annoying.
The content of the messages were all apology, and of course, the first message was about what he said when he was drunk the night before yesterday.
'Justin, what's wrong with you? You could apologize! Why did you say that you liked me?
Did you think I was a fool? How could I believe you?' Myra thought with cold sweat on her forehead.
At this time, her phone rang. It was Bess.
"Myra, what are you busy with? Did you just get up? Why is your phone powered off? " Said Bess.
"I just had breakfast and am watching TV. what about you? I forgot to charge my phone when it ran out of power last night. " Myra answered.
"I really envy you for being so lucky. I got up at seven o'clock in the morning. I've been busy all morning. I'm so tired! " Bess sighed. "So early! Are you still jet lagged? Don't you have two more days off? " Myra asked with concern.
"I wish. But I have no choice. There is no one to help me in the company. I should do all the things by myself, and I'm not familiar with the domestic market. How dare I take a few days off? I am afraid I don't know what is going on even the company is gone. " Said Bess.
"Bess, you run your own company! I envy you. You are the boss. When can I have such a fate? I will be very happy even thinking about it." Myra said enviously.
"Miss, you really don't know how bitter it is! You even are jealous of me. You have a good husband to support you, of course you don't understand. I'd rather have someone I love to support me. What boss! What company! Let them all go to hell! " Said Bess.
"Really? Why don't you give it to me? I've never been a boss before. " Myra joked.
"Do you like it? No problem! As long as you like it, I can make you the boss all your life. " Bess answered jokingly.
"Well, I'm not joking with you. Have you had lunch? Don't forget to have lunch even if you are so busy! " Asked Myra. "Alas! I wanted to ask you to have lunch with me. But you just had breakfast. I have to eat alone. " Bess said with grievance.
"Why didn't you call me earlier? I just had breakfast. Maybe next time! You can ask me out earlier next time. " Said Myra.
"Miss, how dare you say that I didn't ask you out earlier? Your phone was powered off. I have called you many times. I thought you and your husband were busy with something and didn't want to be disturbed. " Bess said ambiguously.
"Bess, what are you thinking about? You are so impure. You are really different when you come back from abroad. Alas." Myra didn't know whether to cry or to laugh.
"Really? I have always been pure. In fact, it's normal to do that. If I have someone I love in the future, I will turn off my phone too. Isn't it beautiful to enjoy the world of two people? " Bess continued.
"Can you behave yourself? Be careful not to scare handsome men away. Do you understand? Don't blame me for not reminding you. " Myra said with a smile.
