I turned my head, looking at the sound of the voice. I was drunk and the lights in the club weren't bright enough for me to see the man clearly.I squinted, staring at the man.I heard him laugh, “It's me, Bruce.”I smirked, “Why are you here? To see my weak and self-indulgent appearance?”"Of course not. I'm here to have a drink with you, and of course, you'll have someone to talk to,” Bruce said and ordered a cocktail.“So that?” I said and continued to sip my drink.My brain was invaded by alcohol, and I suddenly heard Ivor's voice. I suddenly turned up, leaning around to look for him. But then I didn't hear his voice anymore. Maybe I hallucinated, I smiled, stopped drinking so I could be a little more conscious.“I'm crazy,” I said.I heard Bruce's voice, “What made you so upset? For work or relationships or anything else?”“What are you asking for,” I laughed and said.“I want to help you and maybe I can do that,” Bruce said."So that? Should I feel lucky that you're willing to h
I sighed, “Because I've been bothering you.” It was just my reason. I couldn't tell Bruce the whole truth.“Oh? You know, I don't mind,” Bruce laughed and said. “I'm really glad you agreed to let me take you home.”I laughed and shrugged, “Not that much.”He laughed and said, “Wait a minute.”Bruce stepped out of the car, walking towards the car front door next to him, “It's really dangerous for you. So don't do it again.”I smiled, “I get it.”“If not, I'll have to lock the car door every time I go with you,” he said.I laughed, “I won't give you a chance to do so.”Bruce closed the car door, went back to his seat and started the car again.“Lia,” Bruce called me as I began to loosen up. “I have something to tell you.”“Yes?” I answered back. “Go ahead.”“I know I'm in too much of a hurry, but maybe our kiss at the club tonight has kept me from being patient,” Bruce said. I frowned when I heard him talking about our unexpected kiss.“Mmm yeah,” I replied, cheering him on. Suddenly, t
I didn't know how to respond to her and I didn't want to, so I smiled at her and was silent.“I heard what happened that day. It was amazing how calm you could still be when you saw me,”she laughed; her gaze was provocative.That day? She meant the day I found out Ivor had a new mistress and thought he had betrayed me?I remembered how pathetic I was that day and couldn't sustain my smile any longer. I ignored her.Ivor's mistress laughed and said,“I feel so lucky that you don't hate me like any other girl who was betrayed. Well, you weren't betrayed in the first place, anyway?"Her words absolutely angered me. I wanted to answer her ironically. But if I did, I would feel like I was still stupidly in love with Ivor.“Oh, lady, I don't understand the whole thing you're saying. You say I hate you? Ha-ha. That's not true. How can I be jealous of my boss' mistresses? I feel grateful to them, because they have been the ones who indirectly gave me a job.”Yeah, if I looked at things the oth
I was surprise. I didn't suppose I would get back to my old job that fast.Taking care of his mistress? I remember when the girl with the sexy body was hugging Ivor. I bit my lips; I had not been ready for this job yet. I still loved Ivor, and I still cried every night because of him.And why would he give me that job now? He had a new mistress two weeks ago. What was his purpose?I thought about the reasons Ivor might have, but I immediately dismissed the thought.I was just thinking too much. He just wanted his mistress to be taken care of and I was the most experienced person he knew.“Lia? Are you unhappy with this job?” Ivor's cold voice echoed, and I was startled.“Of course not,” I immediately smiled and responded. “I'll come- her villa tomorrow morning. Mmm, can I get her name?”Ivor shrugged, “Her name–.”He suddenly stopped talking, I still looked at him and waited. The atmosphere between us became awkward.“Ask her,” he said. “The relationship between you and her would be b
“Don't be naive,” Lilianna said angrily. “I don't need you to take care of me, get out of the villa.” Then she walked up to her bedroom.Lilianna closed the bedroom door sharply.I was surprised and surprised. What happened to her?After all, Ivor is my boss, not Lilianna. So I didn't leave the villa.This villa has neither a housekeeper nor a maid. After going to check every room, except Lilianna's bedroom, I realized that there were many rooms that were empty or had not been redesigned.Don't tell me Ivor's gonna give his mistress a house that hasn't been carefully redesigned. I wouldn't trust him.What happened to this villa anyway?I was curious, but as an assistant, I immediately took note of the condition of the villa. I called in some designers to redesign this mansion.Before the designers came, I had to ask Lilianna about her favorite design, because it was her mansion.I approached the way of the bedroom, a little worried because of her erratic attitude towards me. But I'm st
We, Lilianna and I, had lunch together in peace.Things were getting weird compared to my imagination. From the beginning, I always felt she didn't like me through her eyes for me, and of course I didn't have good feelings for her, even I believed she wouldn't let me in peace if I went back to my old job.But at lunch she apologized to me for her attitude, she explained that she only slept a few hours last night, so she treated everyone like a nasty girl.I didn't know what to do except to say it's okay.That afternoon, Lilianna went shopping with me. We, together, like a friend.Her friendly attitude left me confused.What was the problem? Did I think bad for her?I stared at my shoes and thought.“Hey, Lia, miss assistant…?” I heard Lilianna's call.“Oh I'm here,” I hurriedly raised my head and responded.I saw her smile friendly. She said, “You don't seem to hear me calling your name. Did something bother you?”I was confused, “No.”Lilianna kept looking at me, “Or don't you like s
Ivor hung up just before I could say anything to him. I looked at Bruce, “Sorry, I need to leave now.”Bruce looked at me and smiled, his smile puzzling me, “Did your boss ask you to do something important?”I bitted my lips, “He didn't tell me clearly but gave me the address.”“I can give you a ride,” Bruce said and I couldn't decide yet. “You won't have to wait for a taxi. You're in a hurry, aren't you?”I bitted my lips, “What about the movie?”“In your opinion, who do I go to the cinema for?” Bruce gave me an anonymous smile. "Stand there and wait for me."My gaze followed him Compared to Ivor's coldness, his sweet words made my heart more relaxed. But I didn't love him, my heart didn't beat the way it did when I was near Ivor.We arrived at the villa by taking a shortcut, Bruce did his best not to be late. I found Ivor on the balcony that faced the gate.“Boss,” I called him.Ivor turned his heel and looked at me. I couldn't guess how he felt through that cold look.“What happene
I smiled and said, “Good morning.”Lilianna immediately exclaimed, “Oh dear, you look tired. Didn't you get any sleep yesterday? What happened?"I looked at her, amazement and anxiety visible on her face. It looked like she really cared about me.Was her question unintentional or deliberate?I was a little angry and wanted to respond forcefully, but I knew if Lilianna was actually attacking me. I looked at Ivor, he was still having breakfast, his cold face made me think again about my next move.I was in Lilianna's mansion, Ivor would never have protected me from the aggression that came from his mistress, and what I've been through has confirmed it.So, I would be weak if I became angry and rebelled against Lilianna or I felt that way. I didn't want any trouble, so I laughed and said, “Sleeping in a new place doesn't feel familiar.”My plate was brought up. I was going to have toast with sunny side up eggs. As soon as the plate was put down, the smell of the egg became intense and up
