What??!!Did they hear her wrongly??!!It is already one difficult task to let her go up, and they still have to ask their big boss to come down??Not only that!... He also has to personally help her carry this heavy box up to his office??!!No way!!...It is with no doubt that whoever makes this scary phone call would be fired by Isaac Wen immediately!"..."Meanwhile, Stephanie Ruan sat leisurely on one of the sofas nearby and looked through some documents on her tablet while waiting for them to get hold of Javier Zhong.It has been about three days since Stephanie Ruan has met Javier Zhong, and neither has she responded to any of his texts.To be frank, she did not like that his messages were kind of intrusive??By the way, his chain of messages went exactly like this over the past few days...[What are you doing now?][I'll pick you up for dinner?][Busy with your work?][Reply when you see this.]I mean, who is he to her? She really does not see the need to report to him about he
The first thing Stephanie Ruan did when she stepped inside is to close the door shut. And then she simply stood there and watched him from afar.Without raising his head from the document in his hands, Javier Zhong ordered in a loud voice, "Hand over your document!"However, all that he heard in response is the familiar 'clicking' sounds from a pair of high heels."??!!..."Unable to hide his stunned expression, Javier Zhong immediately looked up and saw Stephanie Ruan standing right in front of his desk."Not in a good mood?" She asked him with a slight smile.Refusing to answer her question, he asked her instead, "Why did you come?"With a soft chuckle, Stephanie Ruan turned away and took a good look at the design of his office. She is quickly attracted to a large bookshelf filled with business-related books.Casually sliding her fingers across the books at eye level, she double-tapped on one of the books that had caught her eyes and pulled it out."About your offer the other day, I
Seeing that he had actually left the room to pick her items up at Isaac Wen's desk, Stephanie Ruan secretly let out a smile and her anger is instantly dissolved.Humph! Lucky for him who knows exactly how to coax a woman!In no time, Stephanie Ruan's desk is seated nicely on the empty space in front of the bookshelf, adjacent to his table.She also forgot to mention the extra extension of the office space, featuring a mini kitchen and a considerably large dining area.There is even an enclosed large bedroom at the end of the office with an attached bathroom.With the interior design very compatible with any high-end international 5-star hotel, Stephanie Ruan could definitely foresee herself settling down comfortably in this place very soon."Such a horrible man but at least he has good taste..." She casually strolled around the room and checked out the city view from the large full-length windows.As she returned to the main working area, Javier Zhong is already back at his desk, full
Since they are in a public area, Stephanie Ruan did not want to raise her voice and argue with him over such a trivial issue.She could foresee that it would be too embarrassing if others were to hear them.Forget it... just let him be for now...As such, Stephanie Ruan has no choice but to tolerate this bothersome man and unwillingly remain in his arms.On the other hand, the man standing behind her has subconsciously raised the corners of his lips. No one told him that he could be this happy when taking a bus ride!Despite noticing her gloomy expression, Javier Zhong did not seem to let this affect his fantastic mood at all!If only she could obediently lay in his arms like this, he would definitely not mind taking bus rides with her every day, from now onwards.However, this surreal moment is unfortunately short-lived for Javier Zhong as they soon alighted at a crowded bus stop.The minute he took the last step down from the bus, the people around looked at him with perplexity, as
Javier Zhong gazed at her. Well, that was definitely not what he meant.Has he not made it obvious enough that he likes her? Or is she just deliberately ignoring it?"There are no other girls. It's just you." He said with certainty in his voice."But I'm still not interested." She quickly rejected him and left no room for negotiation."..."She knows it!!...Judging by her facial expression and choice of words, Javier Zhong could tell that Stephanie Ruan is aware of his advances.But what could he do about this??Facing the current situation, it is definitely not wise of him to directly confess his feelings to her now because it clearly has a rejection rate of a hundred percent and nothing less!This is not working out! He has to find another way around this...Just then, Javier Zhong thought of a brilliant idea to tackle this tricky situation.Basically in the world of business, if you cannot come up with your own ideas, you gain inspiration from other people's ideas to create your o
Hearing that the door behind her has opened, Stephanie Ruan turned around and is surprised to see Javier Zhong coming in as well."Your meeting has ended so quickly?" She asked.Well, when she was there earlier, it definitely did not look like it was ending anytime soon..."Mmm... You brought something for me?" Javier Zhong carefully avoided her question and his eyes immediately shifted to the lunch box that she is still holding on to.He is obviously not confessing to her about how he hastily ended an important weekly meeting that has barely started just because he'd rather be with her..."Oh, just something small that I made for breakfast! Care to join me?" After placing her handbag down on the desk, she headed toward the dining area and laid out the homemade food on the table.Toasted sandwiches with fluffy eggs, ham, and melted cheese... Home-baked scones with jam... Yoghurt parfaits with several fresh fruits...Wow!! Looks delicious!!To Stephanie Ruan, these food are relatively
Oh, is that his new girlfriend??..."..."Hmm... but it doesn't look like it either...Stephanie Ruan crossed her arms and silently observed the two of them from the side.However, with another closer look, she could roughly guess what is happening and could not help but burst out in laughter, "Pfft..."Thankfully Stephanie Ruan covered her mouth in time to prevent any sound from coming out, which is why they have yet to notice her presence.In fact, her mood has also brightened up a little after witnessing Javier Zhong's annoyed expression.But don't you worry, she is definitely not feeling bad for taking pleasure in his misfortune!Maybe because he is also looking kind of... cute??...Nonetheless, who knew that such a day would come for Javier Zhong and the best part is that she even got to witness it firsthand for herself?!Since it is not an everyday thing that Stephanie Ruan gets to see him in such a manner, she just wanted to fully enjoy watching this scene while Riley Tang cont
Dumbfounded, Stephanie Ruan touched the part of her cheek that he had planted a kiss on. "You..."Does this man not know how to take jokes at all?!How could he just...!!Argh!!His thoughtless action has undoubtedly killed her mood for the entire day.And when Stephanie Ruan tried to push herself up from his lap, she is shocked to find that she is instantly pushed back down and forced to remain in the same position!"??!!..."This man is unbelievable!!"What are you doing?? Let go!" She struggled to get up again but to no avail. Her strength is simply incomparable to Javier Zhong's."You sat here first. It isn't my fault." He innocently explained himself to her.Well yes, she has to admit that she took the initiative to sit on his lap first, but what's with him keeping her in the same position even after the show is already over??What does he mean by this?!If only she knew that he would be this ungrateful, she would not even have bothered to help him out of that situation!Although
