"He has destroyed the reputation that I've so painstaking built up in front of the employees over the past few years. Sob, sob, sob, my reputation as the most beautiful female president in Imperial Capital who's the embodiment of both wisdom and beauty has been destroyed by him in just a few simple sentences."
As Angeline said that, she started knocking her head o n the desk irritatingly. "He's riding roughshod over me because he knows that I like him."
Jay's enchanting dark pupils dilated significantly. There was a trace of unconcealable disgust in his eyes.
He raised his eyebrows and uttered two words coldly," How childish."
Angeline looked up in surprise and saw Jay standing languidly in front of her, staring at her with a look of disgust.
Angeline was instantly flushed.
"Why are you here?"
"I brought you food." Jay pushed the box lunch to her.
Looking at the box lunch in front of her, Angeline’s face broke into a grin. "Are you here to ask for forgiveness?"
Jay's countenance was dark. "I thought you were invulnerable to all sorts of attacks?"
Angeline spat out all the food that she had just put into her mouth. She glared at him and puffed up her cheeks, saying, “And that gives you the right to trample on my dignity as you like?"
Jay twitched his sexy lips, assenting tacitly.
Angeline was infuriated.
She waved weakly at him. "Just go. Don’t come and see me next time if I didn't ask to see you. I would love to live a few more years, thanks."
"That's exactly what I needed."
Angeline,
Jay strode away.
He was in a hurry when he arrived, hence he had no time to admire the scenery on the ninth floor.
Now that he had some leisure time when he was leaving, the cultural wall along the corridor attracted his attention.
Embedded in the long cultural glass wall were lucky stars that were densely packed together, forming a colorful image that carried a message. Though it did seem like not enough lucky stars were prepared as one -third of the cultural wall was left empty.
