One Meet By Chance novel Chapter 8

The guest room was very big, and it was very clean and tidy. All living items were all available.

With a light blue quilt on it, Teresa could smell the warm, pleasant smell from a distance.

The Butler slightly crouched down and stood beside Teresa. "Miss Gu, this is your room. If you need anything, please come to me."

Teresa nodded. After the Butler left, she collapsed weakly on the soft bed as if all her strength had been sucked out.

When she planned to go back to take part in the competition, she had never thought that the result would be like this.

She wouldn't have come back if she had known it earlier.

But she also knew that since things had happened like this, it was useless to complain or refuse.

She had to think about her future life.

With the quilt in her arms, Teresa started to think about all kinds of things and fell asleep gradually.

In her dream, she dreamt again of the afternoon when the dying sun turned the sky red. She was kneeling at the gate of a grand manor, trembling and weak as if she were about to fall.

And the people she thought would always love her and spoil her, at that time they looked so loathsome.

Everyone had changed. Everything had changed.

But that man, standing in front of her, knelt down with her on the steps...

"Jerome..." In her dream, she called out that name unconsciously.

When she opened her eyes again, it was already in the morning.

Teresa took a look at her watch and found it was getting late. So she quickly washed herself and went downstairs after changing her clothes.

Downstairs, Enrique had sat on the table, with a cup of mellow coffee in one hand and a newspaper in his others, reading news on the table carelessly.

"Good morning." he raised his head faintly when he heard Teresa coming downstairs.

It seemed that they had lived together for a long time, so long that it was natural and tacit.

But in fact, she had just moved in for one day!

Ignoring the intimacy and calmness in his tone, Teresa smiled awkwardly, "Good morning..."

The servant just served the breakfast and Teresa quickly put all her attention on the food and did not dare to look at Enrique any more.

After the breakfast in a hurry, Enrique drove the car out. "Get in the car," he said to Teresa.

Teresa reflexively refused, "No, thank you. I take the same car with the boss on my first day at work. They might think we are special for each other."

"There is no bus here, and there won't be any taxi in this period of time. Get on the car. Don't be so polite to me." Enrique threw her a glance, opened the car door and made a gesture of invitation.

Teresa did not know what to say for a moment.

Enrique paused and continued, "Just get on the car! It's your first day to work, and you have to leave a good impression on your colleagues. It won't be good if you are late."

"Okay..." Although Teresa was not willing to sit in the car, what Enrique said made sense. So she had to follow Enrique's gesture and sit in the back seat.

Anyway, she didn't want to go against the money.

For the sake of 300, 000 worth of bonus, Teresa thought she had to show some respect to her new boss!

The only thing Teresa wanted to do was to keep a low profile so that no one would notice, but it was clear that Enrique was working against her.

Not only did he refuse her offer to get out of the car early at the intersection ahead of him, but he drove right up to the company gate in a high profile. He opened the door for her and helped her get off the car, making her look like a star who was ready to walk on the red carpet.

Teresa was so uncomfortable that she couldn't help complaining Enrique in her heart.

'What was he doing?

She is just a new designer coming to work today, why does he make such a high profile like the leader come down to inspect!

She doesn't want to do this. She doesn't want to attract others' attention, and she doesn't want her identity to be seen by people she knew before.

But Enrique didn't listen to her at all!

"Hey, who is this woman? Why did she come here with Mr. Shen?"
