After the phone hung up, Diana looked at me excitedly, “Something’s up between you and this Dr. Bennett?”
I pushed her curious head away and got up to go back to the bedroom, “Sleep well, and don’t be nosy!”
“Hey, Clara…”
The room door isolated her voice. I went back to the bedroom and began to continue to work on the case of the George’s audit, which will be tendered tomorrow.
I originally thought that the middle-aged man that night would appear again, but a few days passed and there was nothing special at all.
I was a little confused about what exactly was going on.
The next day.
The day in Newton Town was getting hotter and hotter, and the sun was a little hot even at eight o'clock. Diana was a nightbird, so she never got up early.
And I've been so busy the past two days that I've had to get up early every day.
In the morning I hurried to the office. Jackie handed me the prepared papers and said, “Let's go straight to the bidding site!”
I nodded and carried the papers and computer out of the office with Jackie.
At the entrance of the elevator, we met Dennis and Mario. Mario handed me the lunch box he was carrying after he saw me, “This is the soup Chef Owen prepared for you, it’s good for your body's recovery. I heard Dennis say that you have been throwing up a lot recently, it should be a false pregnancy sickness after abortion, you’ll get better after some time.”
I was worried that Dennis would suspect anything. But when he said that, I was relieved, “Thank you!”
Dennis's face was gloomy, and I can’t tell his emotions. I had never been able to figure out his temper, and I can't figure out what kind of feelings he had for me.
Elevator doors opened, the four of us together into the elevator. The atmosphere was a little cold, but no one wanted to talk, until out of the elevator.
Jackie gazed at me and said, “Miss Kennedy, you and Mr. George?”
“It's getting late, let's hurry to the bidding site!” I didn’t want to say much. Dennis and I hadn't seen or spoken to each other since the last time in the restaurant.
When I came to the bidding site, I met Luis again, which gave me a headache. He came up to me as soon as he saw me, young and energetic. He then greeted excitedly, “You’re here!”
I did not like his enthusiasm, so I nodded slightly and then directly into the bidding site. More people came here today, basically wanted to fight for the George’s audit.
Halfway through the bidding, I got a slight headache, and I didn’t know why. Jackie saw that I was not right, so she helped me to the rest room and poured me a glass of water, “Miss Kennedy, there are several other companies involved in the bidding behind, why don’t you go to the hospital first?
I shook my head. I had watched most of the companies on the bidding, so I sipped and watched her, “You go check the following companies, save some if it’s appropriate, reject all of them if not!”
I almost understood the specific situation, so I sat in the rest room for a while, and Jackie went over to continue to listen.
It's not easy to be a mother. I thought I was invulnerable, but such small mistakes still occurred on such occasions.
“What’s on your mind?” A teasing voice rang out.
I took a sideways glance and it was Luis. I rubbed my brow and said, “Aren't you going to bid? What are you doing here!?”
“Check on you!” After that, he went behind me and rubbed my temples for me. His hands were strong and he used moderate force, and I originally tried to dodge it but was held down by him.
