My Love My Hatred (Jennie and Lance) novel Chapter 25

Chapter 25 Committed Suicide?

Chapter 25 Committed Suicide?

I reached the company and started the meeting.

Lance was on his seat looking annoyed while Lawrence reported. He kept yawing.

“Why are you so sleepy? I thought you always sleep early?” Lance scolded.

Lawrence was woken up by me last night to pick me up, that must be why he was so tired. I felt guilty.

Lawrence put down the sketch in his hands and stared at Lance. He then said word by word: “I went to save a lady last night. She was abandoned by a male friend in the middle of the road in the night, do you agree that this is call saving someone else’s life?”

I was shocked that Lawrence would speak to Lance this way, he was Lance’s worker!

Wasn’t he afraid that Lance would fire him for defending me?

Lance fiddled with the pen in his hands and smirked. He didn’t got mad. He looked at me and looked back at Lawrence. “Oh? This lady must be very gorgeous for you to get out of bed to save her!” he said.

“Yea, Lawrence, share the details! Is she pretty?” the other colleagues started asking.

Lawrence’s gaze fell on me and smiled: “Nah, just a friend, she isn’t interested in me don’t simple guess.”

“Seems like it’s one sided then!” another colleague said.

Why are these people such busy bodies? 

“Don’t joke, please. Let’s get on with the meeting!” Lawrence glanced at me again and said.

He must be embarrassed that instead of scolding him, Lance and the others started questioning him about his love life or crush.

Lance’s eyes jumped from me to Lawrence and back to me again. He didn’t look too happy, but who the hell cares about him? He must already know Lawrence was the one who saved me yesterday. So what? Lance was the one who abandoned me.

There’s no law stating that a man can’t help a defenseless lady in the middle of the night.

Want me to die? Not so easy.

I seemed to have surprised him by my words. He froze and answered: “What are you saying? Hating someone needs efforts, you’re just a toy to me.”
