Five minutes later, the door of president’s office was pushed open.
Hearing that someone come in, Liam who was lowering his head frowned.
He didn’t even raise his head and just said coldly, “Get out!”
But the person who came in just paused a bit and continued walking towards him.
Liam knitted his eyebrows more and got furious, “I said, get out!”
That person then just stopped.
But when Liam saw clearly who was holding the coffee, he froze.
“Ri... Rita?”
“I’m sorry for interrupting your work... I’ll wait outside.” Putting the coffee down, Rita said apologetically.
Seeing that she turned around and was about to leave, Liam paused a bit.
Looking at her clean face, he then said lightly, “I’m not busy.”
“Why are you so angry then? Who pissed you off?” Rita pretended that she didn’t know anything and just asked.
Liam actually found it hard to come up with an excuse.
But at this critical moment, Jacob walked in.
Seeing that Jacob was here, Liam explained coldly, “I thought you were Jacob, so I didn’t control my temper.” Then he landed his eyes on Jacob.
Jacob paused in bewilderment, “What?”
“What are you doing here? Have you finished revising the proposal? Just fuck off if you haven’t completed it. Don’t bug me!”
Liam shot cold glances at Jacob who cannot even figure out what was going on.
Jacob who was treated as a scapegoat twitched the corner of his mouth. ‘Liam, don’t you feel bad for what you have done to me? How can you do this to me... But clearly you are totally okay with this.”
Meeting Jacob’s accusatory eyes, Liam said calmly, “Well, should I see you out myself? What are you still doing here?”
Jacob forced back all of his inner complaints because of Liam’s staring.
‘Liam, don’t you think that you are discriminating here? How come that I’m treated differently? It is Rita who would make you angry every time, but I would always get the blame. I really feel like crying...”
Jacob winked his eyes gloomily and went outside.
The door was then reclosed, leaving Liam and Rita alone in the office.
Liam looked at Rita with eyes brightened up, “What are you doing here?”
“Well, I don’t have lessons today, so I figured that I would drop by.” Rita just threw an excuse randomly and approached Liam.
This was the first time for her to take the initiative since they restarted their love relation.
She would usually just sit on the sofa to wait for him to finish work, but today she walked pass the table and sat on Liam’s lap.
Embracing Rita in his arms, Liam instantly got pleased.
Looking at the girl who was staring at him, Liam got confused, “What is it?”
“Here.” Rita handed a key to Liam.
Glancing at the golden key, Liam paused a second, “What... what is this?”
“A spare key to my apartment. You can visit me when you are not busy.” Rita licked her lips and explained lowly.
Hearing her words, Liam’s heart fluttered a bit.
Taking the key over, Liam stared at Rita’s clear eyes and smiled. “I can visit you when I’m not busy?”
“Yes.”
Seeing that Rita nodded, Liam let out a crooked smile.
Right...
He instantly decided that he will take a few days off from tomorrow.
Liam was always resolute and vigorous, so he immediately grabbed the phone out and texted his secretary to cancel the following three days’ business arrangement.
He also said that Jacob would be responsible for everything while he was not around.
