Chapter 181 What kind of game were you playing?

Elly was a little upset about Manager Henry's concern. After watching her without moving the spoon for a long time, he looked up suspiciously and found that she was staring at him.

What happened?

Elly smiled, and her eyes were sour. I think it is too late to feel your concern now. She did not care that his eyebrows were frowned and hard to understand. She took a sip of porridge and spoke slowly. "If you had only 1/10 to me before, I would be very moved, but now, even if you did care about me desperately, we would not come to an end."

Her every word seemed to be a nail to Alex's heart, and he was distressed by the idea of bluffing. His voice trembled violently. "I will make it up to you. You do not have to answer me."

Elly whispered a word then said nothing. Both men pursued their thoughts in silence.

Alex sent Elly home, she left the hotel and found herself a simple tavern.

After getting out of the car, she bowed her head and went back to the hotel. The key was still in the car. Elly is back. Her voice sounded strong. "What kind of game were you playing? Why did you not come back?"

Alex locked the door and he did not allow her to close it. "Will you please let me in so I can get a cup of tea?" asked Elly.

Your nerves are as tense as a bandage and refuse without hesitation. "No, it is late. I want to go to bed early. And I have no tea here, so you cannot come in." Cheryl said.

"Where do you think you are going? I promise not to hurt you." Alex realized the vigilance in her eyes and laughed, guessing what the idiot's brain was thinking. "I do not think you are in good health today. You are staying in a motel. If there is any problem, no one will be there to take care of you."

Fearing that she would disagree, he quickly said in a sincere voice, "Do not worry, I will sleep on the sofa, I will not go into the bedroom, there will be no harassment, I am just worried about you" Alex said.

"No, I am fine now. You do not need to take care of me, thank you." Elly firmly refused, and when he was not paying attention, she vigorously shoved his hand that was holding the door with all her strength and shut the door as if she had just encountered a pervert.

Elly was tortured all day and was really exhausted. She slept deep all night and got up on time.

She sat on the bed, slightly thinking of last night's event. Suddenly, Elly remembered about her personal hygiene, she then opened the door and was about to go freshen up, when a cluttered figure stood in front of the door startled her. "Alex? Have you been here all night?"

She glanced at his clothes, unsure of what he was wearing last night, because of how tired and hungry she was then.

Alex did not answer her question. He only gave her a nylon bag with a sponge box containing the smell of food. "I do not know why you woke so early, (giggling)," he said, "Well, I was not sure if I should have woken earlier. Do not worry you still look well-rested," Alex said.

She became silent. He sighed and put the breakfast in her hand. "I know you do not like being noticed. So, hurry, get in the car and I will park my car far away from the company so that you can walk."

Judging from his determined expression, she knew that she should not have agreed, but was still troubled, not sure whether she would reach work in time.

Alex stopped a block from the company, and when she got out of the car, he whispered. "It is my favorite food. Hurry and eat."

Watching the jeep leave, Elly only felt that she was dreaming. "Since when did Alex became so considerate?" She asked herself, she had noticed before but never quite experienced it.

But Elly was happy that he changed. When she walked into the company today, everyone's attitude towards her was unusual.

In the past, everyone dared not get in touch with her and rarely responded to her greetings, but today she took the initiative to say hello, with a respectful look so that she did not know how to respond.

What surprised her most was that there was a bunch of beautiful flowers on her desk.

A card was placed inside, with the winding words "blue" written on it from Alex. He was apologizing for his behavior which said "Please forgive me!"

Shocked, she stiffened on the spot and pinched her face in her hands to determine whether she was awake or dreaming. "That is disgusting!"

Linda Peart passed by and laughed mockingly when she saw Elly's silly behavior and her red face. "You now look like a child."

"I just want to know if I am awake or dreaming. If you had shown up earlier and I pinched you, would you not be hurt?" Elly took a breath from the pain, stretched out her lips, and handed the card to her friend.

Blinking at the words on the card, Linda Peart was not surprised and her voice was playful. He should have apologized to you a long time ago. His attitude was sincere enough, but you do not want to forgive him, because you knew him for being a famous actor.

"Do you think he sent flowers all of a sudden on purpose?" Elly asked.

"Does he really have a conscience?"

Linda Peart's humor was so obvious that even Elly realized. "I always thought you were my best friend, but you kept it from me. Tell me what you know."

Linda Peart smiled shyly, her face looked confused and she did not say another word.

Elly was not easily fooled but kept on forcing her to speak. Linda was not the only one in the company acting strange but as a matter of fact, everyone in the company was acting strange. I was the only one who received this type of treatment. "If you do not tell me, it will forever remain a mystery towards me. it is time for you to speak up or get into trouble."

"Now, if you get into trouble, it will not be a big deal," Elly said. Linda Peart covered her mouth and had to surrender and confess when she saw the corner of Elly's face. At nine in the morning, Alex broke into the office of Officer Jones.

Elly was shocked. Now she understood why she saw him waiting at the door when she opened it earlier. As a result, he went to the company and came back to the place where she rented.

"What did he say to the boss?"

"Is there anything else to talk about, besides you?" Linda Peart's jealous tone was not hidden. You know, you were stupid to have let Alex talk to the boss a long time ago, and now everyone in the company knows that you have an affair with him.

"That is why I joined this company. People treat me with so much respect. Alex is nothing! I have absolutely nothing to do with him!"

Moved by Alex's defense and annoyance of everyone's attitude, Elly murmured to herself sadly with feelings of dispute in her mind. "This is him giving me trouble, not helping me. How could I stay in the company safe and sound?"

Hearing her sigh, Linda Peart felt sympathy for her lover, Alex's half-joking persuasion. I feel sorry for when the right man comes along. Alex worked recklessly and used force to control people, but the purpose is to protect you from being bullied, which you should not unhappily deny.

Linda Peart misunderstood your meaning. Elly was very confused now. "You thought you could get rid of the influence and help of the people you once knew? But no matter where you go or what you do, Alex has her best interests at heart."

Everything went back to square one and you felt bored and tired.

Elly ignored Linda Peart's face-cutting and begged. "Honey, leave me alone, okay?"

After Linda Peart sprained her friend's cheek excitedly she left, leaving Elly all alone in the room.

As for Linda Peart, she sat in the dressing room. Even though she was sincere when writing on a card, she was often disrespectful in her heart.

She closed her eyes and asked the makeup artist to paint her face, then she strangely told her assistant. "I always admired how tall she was when she was only just a mistress of the bosses of big companies. Being just a common toy, what right did she have to show off in front of me?"

Her assistant, Brian, commended her image. "She is just the kind of woman who depends on men for a living, not worthy of comparison with our brilliant blue."

After listening to her flattering assistant, Linda Pert felt more balanced with the support of her secretary. Elly is just a secretary, not as beautiful as I am, not as hot as I am. She is useless and without talent, why does she want to get close to Alex?

Seeing a sad look on Linda Peart's face, the assistant asked carefully. Miss Peart, have we really forgiven her?

How did this happen? Summer blue smells to the nostrils. She was just a pet shepherd who punished a dog, and I was still energetic.

Elly regained her conscience and accepted Alex's kindness. She sent a message to separate everything. "I hope you will stay out of my business, this is the last time, thank you!"

The message was one of warning, and Alex did not reply for a long time. On the contrary, it affected Elly, she wondered to herself. "Maybe he is busy working. Maybe he does not answer his phone, maybe he..." She was angry.

Elly's worry was threatening herself, which was totally unnecessary because Alex is dealing with the trouble caused by Brandon.

Mr. Geno was still at the branch. He said that if the other party does not sign, he would give up on the project, but we were doing half the work.

Looking at the eagerness of the senior manager, Alex frowned solemnly as he looked at the documents. Go to Mr. Geno and get back to the office at once!
