Chapter 834
Molly knew that it would be difficult to reject their kindness!
'But, this will be good too. I won't overthink at home if I join the party.'
So, she smiled faintly as she said yes.
After work, Lynn brought a few male and female colleagues to a restaurant. They had their lively party in a private room.
Maybe because everyone was so stressed from working that Lynn asked the waiter to bring them some alcohol as they were chatting.
"We finally get to have a party together tonight. Let's clink glasses!"
Lynn smiled passionately as she said that. The other colleagues picked up their glasses too. After they clanked their drinks, some of them gulped the glass of alcohol, while some of them just took a sip.
The atmosphere was extremely lively. Molly was suddenly less upset because of it.
Her colleagues were from all over the world. All of them had their own unique background and story. So, there were many topics to chat about between them.
Molly smiled when she saw her colleagues talking and laughing. But, she did not speak much.
Later that night, she had an upset stomach. So, she got up and went to the washroom.
After she came out, she saw a chubby male colleague, who was wearing glasses, just standing outside the washroom.
"Why are you standing here? Go in and talk to the other colleagues," Molly stepped forward as she said with a smile.
The male colleagues still did not move. He stared at Molly as the look on his face changed.
"Ms. Molly..."
He said softly as he gobbled. He looked like he wanted to have a heart-to- heart talk with her.
Molly frowned. She did not think too much about it. She thought he had some sort of problem. So, she worriedly said, "Are you not feeling well? If you can't drink, you can go home earlier. Just tell them that I allow you to do so."
The man shook his head hastily, "It's not that, Ms. Molly. 1-1 have something that I'd like to talk to you about alone.
"Actually, I've been deeply attracted to you since I first saw you. And, Ms. Molly, you're so young, but you've already accomplished so much in virology. I admire you a lot. In my eyes, y-you're my Goddess. So, I really like you a lot. I was wondering if you could give me a chance for US to get to know more about each other?"
The man anxiously said. He raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and he looked extremely nervous.
It was very awkward for Molly. This was the first time that someone confessed to her so directly.
And, she remembered that she was not close to that male colleague!
Moreover, she already had someone she liked. And, she had kids too. So, she could not agree to his request.
Hence, she determinedly shook her head and said, "I'm sorry. We can't be together."
