After Sophia left, Victor felt irritable, and threw the documents in his hand out vigorously! The document fell to the ground, sliding across the smooth tile floor to the door and paused. When Sophia got back from the tea room, she noticed the files scattered beside the door. She put the files in order on Victor's table and set the coffee on the table. "Mr. Victor, these documents are very important. Please take them."
Sophia's indifference almost suffocated Victor. He pulled his tie to make himself relax. He opened his mailbox and forced himself not to think too much, just to finish the work first.
When Zed went downstairs and passed by the working area downstairs, he found that Teresa's seat was empty. He walked over and gently smiled at Molly who was working next to Teresa. "Good morning, Molly."
All of a sudden, the woman named Molly was called by the deputy general manager. She felt extremely flattered. "Good morning... Morning, Mr. Zed. What can I do for you? "
As usual, a gentle smile spread across Zed's face. He replied, "Nothing. I just want to ask you where is Teresa?"
"Teresa..." After taking a look at the empty seat where Teresa was sitting, Molly said indifferently, "She didn't come to work today!"
"Really? I see. Thank you! " He then gave Molly a smile again.
"Wow! So handsome! " After Zed left, Molly was still staring at his back. Although Victor looked more handsome than Zed, Victor was always so cold that nobody dared to get close to him. But in her eyes, Zed was different. He treated everyone with the same tenderness, even the employees at the bottom. Many employees in the company were fond of Zed.
Teresa didn't come! Perhaps it didn't mean anything, but yesterday, both Victor and Teresa got off work at the same time. It seemed that they were asked to leave by their family. Since Teresa didn't come to work today, and when he saw Victor in the morning, Zed also had a vague feeling that Victor was in a bad mood. It was a coincidence, which made Zed suspicious.
Maybe they just went back yesterday to discuss the engagement!
'Looks like Victor didn't say yes, ' Zed thought! At the thought of this, Zed clenched his fists! He thought to himself, 'I really love Teresa. I wish I could give Teresa the whole world. But Teresa loves Victor wholeheartedly.'! But Victor didn't cherish Teresa. He hurt Teresa for Sophia!
It was okay that Victor didn't like Teresa. Zed wanted her! But Victor had already possessed Teresa, and tossed her away! How could Zed bear anyone to hurt the girl he loved? A trace of hatred could be seen in Zed's eyes. He thought to himself, 'Victor, just wait. I will definitely make you pay for what you have done to Teresa.'.
At that moment, Zed heard the voice from the reception, "Mr. Jay, you are here." The moment Zed raised his head, he saw Jay walking towards him. Zed took back all his hatred, he smiled politely to Jay. Zed was very clear about Jay. Although Ji family and Xiao family had been friends for generations, Ji family had a good friendship with Karl and Grace, not his parents. And Jay was only a nodding acquaintance to Zed. After all, Jay was the best friend of Victor. Therefore, Jay was his enemy now.
When Jay saw Zed, Jay also smiled politely, nodded to him and walked past him. Jay didn't have much impression of Victor's cousin, who had gone abroad a long time ago. He just knew that Zed liked painting and was not in the mood of doing business. Although Christopher appointed Zed as the deputy general manager, Victor never regarded him as a threat.
With one hand in his pocket, Jay whistled as he went straight to Victor's office.
Jay had just come back from abroad and hadn't heard anything about what happened between Victor and Teresa. He had wanted to see how Victor was flirting with Sophia in his office, but he didn't expect that when he opened the door, he saw that Victor and Sophia were busy doing their work on their desks. They looked very serious.
Jay's appearance told Sophia that he had something to tell Victor. She looked at her watch and it was time for lunch. So Sophia asked, "Mr. Victor, can I have lunch now?"
During the whole morning, Sophia was called Victor with the word "Mr.", which reminded Victor of the current relationship between them. With a sigh, Victor waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."
"Okay." Sophia took her handbag and walked out.
Jay's words took Victor by surprise. Victor paused for a moment. But he shook his head at the thought of Zed's harmless look. "Don't worry, I know my cousin well. But you're right. It's time to guard against Adam. I'll take care of everything here. But now the most troublesome thing for me is Sophia! Jay, what do you think I should do now? "
"You ask the right person. I'm afraid no one has a better experience in taking a girl than me." Speaking of hitting on the girl, Jay became casual again and said, "But Victor, it's not like you to be so coward! Don't worry about that. Just feel free and make a move boldly. That's your style! Why are you still asking me what you should do? "
Victor shook his head. "I can't force Sophia now. I can only wait. I will wait her to forgive me. She said if I forced her, she would resign and go to a place I couldn't find. If... If she left S City, I would never find her. What should I do then? "
Jay shook his head and said in a disappointed tone, "Dude, I asked you to capture it. I didn't tell you to do it by force! In pursuing a girl, it was also very important to keep a low profile all the time. You couldn't always use such a hard way, or it would only have an adverse effect on her! Since it was your fault at first, you apologized to her and offered to show kindness to her. Woman's heart is soft, if you keep pestering her, she will be with you against! "
"You... You want me to give in? " Victor arched an eyebrow and stared at Jay with contempt. Obviously, it was a very difficult task for Victor.
"You asked me to give you an idea. This is the best I can think of!" With a shrug, Jay smiled and said, "I know you don't like to yield to anyone. However, as long as you want to hug a beauty, you have to be able to yield to the principles. You are not yielding to anyone else, it is the woman you love. What's the big deal with being softhearted to the woman you love?"
Victor lowered his head, pondered on what Jay had said, and then nodded, "You have a point! Then what should I do? " Victor asked.
"Are you kidding me? You even need me to teach you!" Jay looked at Victor with disappointment. "That's all I can say. The rest is up to you. As the saying goes, "Master lead the way into the temple, while you cultivate yourself in there." I'm very busy. I will go back abroad to continue my work for you! I'm here to send you some documents today. Don't forget that you have a company abroad! Here's the thing. I'm going home to sleep and fix my jet lag." As soon as Jay finished his words, he left Victor's office like a gust of wind.
It took a while for Victor to get back his sense while he looked at the extra documents on his desk. He couldn't help smiling and thought, 'Jay always acts like this!'!
