Chapter 37: A Guilty Conscience Is a Self-accuser
Worked for a while, Mr. Brown contacted her through inside line telephone, Cathy saw Mila sitting quietly on the sofa in the distance,so she got up to walk to her, squatted down to see her, asked gently, "I want to go out, you want to stay here or go out with me together?"
She blinked, turned, climbed down from the sofa, and pulled at her dress.
Cathy smiled, touched her head, "OK,we will go out together."
Holding her little hand, she went to President Office, Mr. Brown saw them, he looked at her wonderingly, "The girl?"
"Sorry, Mr. Brown, she is my friend's child..."Cathy explained the situation in a light voice.
Mr. Brown nodded and beckoned her to sit down, saying, "the branch of LT Company here has been basically completed, and it will start to operate immediately. After a while, the representative of their company will come to visit us, so please help me to to entertain them."
She was numbed for a while, so fast?
There was a pause, and she asked, as if nothing had happened. "Do you know which representatives of them will come?"
Mr. Brown would not entertain representatives of a branch in person.
Mr. Brown smiled nonchalantly. "It should only be some department managers. That's why I sent you. It's not a big deal. You treat them to lunch."
Have a meal?
Wasn't that social engagement ?If there were too many people, they must drink, and she had child by her side.
"Mr. Brown...It's inconvenient if I take a child."She looked down at Mila with awkwardness, and then she said," or...Can I send other employees from the department go there with me?"
Mr. Brown looked at her, and then at the cute little girl, and nodded, "OK, you go to make arrangements, be sure to treat them well and none of them are neglected."
"All right."Cathy relieved a breath slightly, and then she smiled to ask again, "When will they come to our company?"
Mr. Brown turned his head to look out of the window,lightly said, "Soon .The branch office is not far from us. It's opposite. It only takes a few minutes to arrive here."
Cathy was stiff and felt puzzled. She couldn't believed her ears, stared at Mr. Brown, "You, you say they...Where are they? The opposite?"
She slowly turned her eyes to look out of the window, the news made her heart sank.
Their branch office was in the opposite building?
Mr. Brown didn't notice anything wrong with her, but smiled and walked to the window, pointing to the opposite building, said, "it is very coincidence, LT company's branch is opposite to ours, and the same floor likes us, you should still be able to see them, but I am short-sighted so I can't see anything."
Her line of sight followed him, the smile was stiff very much, her eyes looked was complex and deep.
Did Tyrone do this intentionally or unintentionally?
Did the call he made last night have anything to do with it?
"Well, you can arrange this thing now."Mr. Brown waved to her.
"Well, good."Cathy said, holding Mila to leave President Office.
Back in her office, she stood in front of the window, staring blankly at the building opposite.
All of a sudden, the curtain of the room facing her office slowly moved upward. In the huge floor-to-ceiling window, a slender figure was completely exposed in her vision, liked an actor under the curtain in the center of the stage, which made her feel very unreal.
She returned, blinked her eyes fiercely, made sure he was not an illusion, and she bit her lip unconsciously.
Now it was clear that the man did it on purpose.
He stood motionless in the distance, one hand in the pocket of his suit. He was composed haughtily, far away from her, his expression was a little vague, but the only certainty was that he was watching her, and seemed to know where her office was.
She felt flustered, picked up the phone without hesitation to call him.
Bell rang for a few seconds, she separated the distance between the two buildings, clearly saw the man took out the phone from his pocket and put it on his ear. His handsome face was still facing her direction. "Hello." A deep, calm voice.
"What do you mean?"She asked directly.
"What what do you mean?"
"Why do you have a branch office here?Don't tell me it's just coincidence. Fuck."
He frowned when she said the dirty words, but his tone was still peaceful. "It's not a coincidence, it's just a wise choice. Thanks to my last visit to your company, I found the location here is good and the environment is good."
She was choked by him, gnashed her teeth, "Hey, Tyrone Raman, what do you want?We have already divorced, can you stop disturbing my peaceful life?"
The other side was quiet for a few seconds, the man's deep, husky smile came through, "Because I am your ex-husband, so whatever I do, you will feel I have ulterior motives. In fact, you are too narcissistic, or...... You feel guilty?"
The last three words, he deliberately slowed down the speed of speech. His deep voice was disorienting, let her heartbeat suddenly missed a clap.
If he had been present, he would have seen her face became ugly.
Holding the phone tightly, she bit her lips silently for a while, until the breath down, she said in a cold voice, "Since there is no ulterior motives, that do what you said. Please don't bother me."
Without waiting for a response, she cut off the phone, looked up sharply at him and left the window.
Across the window, he was standing and put down the phone, his eyes did not turn and still looking at her side, his eyes became cold, let people felt unfathomable. There was a knock at the door.
Marian came in, "Tyrone, aunt called us to have a dinner at home."
The man's back to her, did not turn, said in a light voice, "you go home first, I have a matter at noon, tell her that I will go back home in the evening."
The woman's complexion changed slightly. "What is the matter with you?Do you need me to stay and help?"
"No, I don't, you can go home first."
Marian looked at him, the heart had guessed out the result, she felt very uncomfortable suddenly.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Vanten Technology Company was on the opposite, he was going to find that woman?
She tightened her hands, her eyes flashed a different color, and did not ask any more, nodded, "I will go back home."
Cathy sat beside the computer, the brain was still thinking about the matter just now, the mood became a mess.
Suddenly she felt that someone was pulling her clothes. She felt shocked and suddenly came back to her mind. She lowered her head and looked at her. "What's the matter?"She asked softly.
The little girl pressed her little mouth, eyebrows also crowded together, expression seemed to be uncomfortable, and then she took off her pants. She looked at her behavior for a while, suddenly said, "you want to pee?"
She shook her head.
Cathy was puzzled, then slanted the head, asked heuristically, "poop?"
The girl finally nodded dully.
Cathy laughed, and she was afraid that she was not feeling well, so she carried her to the toilet out of the office in a hurry.
While waiting inside, a receptionist called her.
"Manager Lawson, the representative of LT company is here now."
