“Of course. If you can’t fulfill your duty, you can’t get your salary.”
Rylee signed, “Well then, I will come over tonight.”
“You don’t think that I am exploiting you?”
Rylee softly stamped her shoes, “I don’t want to go home…I don’t want to see them being together. I am afraid that I will be angry to death.”
The last few words stabbed Timothy’s heart like a sword.
“Then come. If I am busy this afternoon, I will send Armand to pick you up.”
“Fine.” Rylee nodded.
Timothy watched her walking into the school lonelily and sadly, and an overwhelming sorrow captured him.
What did you want, Manfred!
Why did upset Rylee that much!
Timothy sat back in his car with a deadly cold expression.
“Go to find Manfred!”
“Ye…what? Where do we go now, boss?”
Armand thought he didn’t grasp the correct information.
“Find Manfred!”
“Yes, sir!”
Armand took a secret glimpse of Timothy in the mirror and stuck out his tongue.”
The boss was angry.
When Timothy broke into the office, Manfred was busily working on some files.
The male secretary who followed behind was still saying, “Sorry sir, you can’t get in…”
Manfred looked at the handsome Timothy and signaled the secretary out.
Timothy also signaled his group of bodyguards out.
“Timothy, why are you here?”
Manfred seemed a little bit tired.
Timothy seated himself with his legs crossed without permission. Even this simple action showed his elegance.
Timothy sneered coldly, “Manfred, you seem to be so powerful that you can win Rylee’s love. Are you challenging me now? Now that you have promised her your love, why can’t you keep it? Why did you agree to get engaged to Caroline?”
Manfred also became serious now. Leaning against the back of his chair, he talked back without hesitation, “President Wheeler, are we still friends and classmates?”
Timothy narrowed his eyes, “We can only be and have already been enemies since the moment you were to have my girl. You should know that.”
“Now that we are enemies, shouldn’t you thank me for abandoning Rylee? Why are you here to question me?”
Timothy glared at Manfred, “You shouldn’t win her love and then abandon her.”
“You mean that now I should be with her, enjoying our engagement and then marriage? Then you will be satisfied.”
Timothy sprang to his feet and said coldly, “I am here just to warn you to leave her alone from now on. You have already lost your rights and power competing with me!”
Timothy walked out at the moment he finished his words.
Manfred snickered after Timothy and said quietly, “Even though I abandoned her, I am still the only one she loves. What a tragedy for you.”
Hearing those words, Timothy paused for two seconds before he left sturdily.
The door of the office was slammed heavily. Manfred sat there still for a second, then stood up and turned to the floor-to-ceiling window, and rubbed his hair heavily.
“Annoying! Annoying!”
He slammed his fist hard against the glass.
Rylee was absent-minded throughout the whole class.
During the class, she received a text message from Manfred,
“Rylee, we need to talk about it sometime. There's been a misunderstanding between us.”
***
Reading the message, Rylee murmured, “No misunderstanding at all, and no talk at all! Liar! Don’t try to bewilder me anymore!”
She directly deleted the message.
Rylee took a walk downstairs. The next course was an optional course which she didn’t bother to attend.
“Rylee! Are you Rylee?” a sweet voice suddenly appeared.
“Who?” Rylee raised her head towards the direction of the voice. After seeing the sweet girl in front of her, she was transfixed for a second.
Oh god! Isn’t the girl standing a few meters away Timothy’s fiancée?
It was exactly this girl dressed like a princess who said solemnly and confidently that she must be Timothy’s wife that day on the street.
It was her!
“You…”
“My name is Felicia Schultz. We have met before on the street. Do you still remember me?”
Rylee nodded but still in confusion, “Yes, I remember. Hi, Felicia.”
The two girls shook hands.
Felicia’s hands were so delicate and fair. It was obvious that she would always take good care of her body.
“Why are you here at my school?”
Rylee looked over Felicia’s shoulder and found no one following her.
“I have nothing to do, so I came here for a walk. And then I saw you and recognized you instantly. Timothy once mentioned you to me.”
