She was disgusted by herself that she wanted to vomit.
“Come here, let me hug and kiss you.” Emmett hooked his fingers and acted like an emperor.
The smile on Elaine’s face immediately disappeared, she wore a serious expression and displeased, and said, “What do you mean? What do you take me for? This is the office! The relationship between us is boss and employee! Besides, can you kiss just because you want to? Then, where do I put my pride? Quick, say it, what did you call me for?”
“Hahaha…” Emmett chuckled lightly, “It’s just I’ve been working for a while, and I am a little tired, so I called you for fun.”
Elaine’s face darkened immediately, “Oh, am I your little toy? Calling me in just for fun? Seriously, I’ve never met someone who give others a blow like this, terrible! Emmett Smith, you’re horrible!”
“Hahaha…” Emmett laughed loud. He dropped his gaze again, and looked at the cup in his hand, asked, “This is your cup?”
“Yes, it’s my cup, what’s wrong?” Didn’t he ask her to use her cup to give him tea? Why, did he think that it’s dirty now?
“If you find it dirty, then I’ll get you a disposable cup.”
“Who said it was dirty?” Emmett smiled slightly, pointed to the painting on the cup, and said, “It’s just that I find your cup interesting. The drawing on the cup looks childish. With a look, you’re just a simple and silly girl.”
Elaine was unhappy when one said that she was silly. Unconvinced, she explained, “Is it childish? Do you even understand? I drew this by myself, and it’s significant! Although the cup is not expensive, it can be considered as a DIY art. And you actually said that it’s childish, don’t you have any artistic cells! Seriously!”
Emmett wasn’t angry and leaned his thin lips over and drank a sip of tea. He squinted his eyes into half and enjoyed the taste of the tea. That expression was like he was savoring Elaine instead of the tea. His demeanor and movements were full of intense erotic atmosphere, and Elaine’s heart fluttered. Damn it, why could a bad guy be so handsome! He’s so handsome that he’s annoying!
“Oh? You painted it by yourself? Then tell me, what do these paintings mean?” Emmett asked while taking another sip of tea. Leaning in his chair, his long legs stretched out, and half-squinting, it was a sluggish and expensive look.
Elaine got excited immediately when she heard him asked about the painting on the cup. She ran over, sprawled in front of the table. She leaned her small face in, and one paw pointed at her cup while she introduced.
“Oh, do you see this? This painting has heavy snow as the background, and there’s a strange tree on it that bears fruits. There’s a meaning to it, the snow contains a person’s name, and it flies around gently, and snow means my senior, Mark Wilson.” [1]
Elaine was still talking with gusto, but hearing this, Emmett’s face suddenly became gloomy. The hand that was holding the cup tightened bit by bit. Mark Wilson? No wonder… It turned out that this girl had painstakingly painted such a picture. Then, printed it on the cup so that she could think about that senior of hers once every time she drank water.
Elaine was making him angry again!!! Really furious!!!
Elaine didn’t notice Emmett’s expression and continued talking happily and heartlessly, “The tree with red fruit, of course, refers to me. Of course, it also indicates celebration, as well as the meaning of having results. Overall, it means that I’ll progress well and stay together for a long time with my senior.”
The more Emmett listened, the uglier his face became. Elaine swallowed her saliva, and raised her face to Emmett, and said, “Didn’t I paint it well? My friend, Hazel, even complimented on my painting and said that it was super connotative! Is it? Is it? It’s amazing, right?”
The opposite of Elaine’s excitement was Emmett’s coldness, with a cold face, he secretly held his breath. He put down the cup heavily as if he has hatred with it. With his eyelids pulled, he looked at the folders on the table, and said coldly, “Get out.”
Elaine couldn’t react in time and stayed, at a loss, by Emmett’s side. They were just talking happily, why did he suddenly ask her to get out? What was happening? He couldn’t possibly change his face so fast, right?
Emmett stopped looking at Elaine, and wrote something quickly, and repeated in a harsher tone, “There’s nothing for you now, you can get out!”
Ahhhh, why was she so unlucky? When the senior finally took the initiative to converse with her, she didn’t even notice it! It was all the fault of those garment factories representatives! Because they came one after another, if not, she wouldn’t have missed her senior’s message.
Elaine struggled internally and slapped her face a few times. Before she replied cautiously with excitement, “I’m sorry, senior, I went out earlier and just came back and just saw the notification. Um, about the examinations, the results can be checked in a few days. Of course, I want to apply to the university where you are studying! Haha, I just don’t know how I did in the exam and if my grades are enough for that university.”
After typing this paragraph, Elaine read it twice again carefully, ensuring there were no typos, and nothing that could cause a misunderstanding or joke, then she sent it carefully.
Then, she held her heart and waited anxiously. After waiting for 10 minutes, instead of a reply from her senior, the music to end work was heard. Elaine rubbed her face with both hands and was annoyed to death.
She sighed, “Urgh, I’m so unlucky, I missed the senior just like that… He was offline long ago! What kind of life do I have! Ahhhhhhh…”
At this time, the phone rang. Elaine quickly picked up and saw it wasn’t her senior, alas, even if the sky fell, she wouldn’t receive a call from her senior, who was she to the senior? They haven’t spoken more than a few sentences, and he wouldn’t even think about calling her.
With a mentality of wanting to cry, Elaine picked up the phone sadly.
“Hello?”
“What ‘hello’, I’m on the first floor of your company, why haven’t you come down yet? Everyone has gotten off work, and I don’t know what are you doing?
