They all look over at this young, handsome director following the sound.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSorry, I have to leave now. You guys please continue the meeting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Oliver says hurriedly and then rushes towards outside.<\/p>\n<p>He stops at a place with great ventilation and pants heavily.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s at a loss with a heavy heart and so restless and confused.<\/p>\n<p>He wants to cry.<\/p>\n<p>He used to be a playboy, but falling in love with Elaine has brought her sufferings and causes him to have the urge to cry.<\/p>\n<p>It turns out that when you\u2019re truly into a girl, you would feel your heart aching so much if being rejected.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Elaine and Hazel walk hand in hand and arrive at the small, unimpressive caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHazel, I don\u2019t dare to step in. Why is my hard beating so fast? I\u2019m afraid that I would faint before meeting Mark. I\u2019m so nervous!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Elaine wrinkles her face and grabs Hazel\u2019s hand tightly, hesitating about whether to go in or not at the door of the caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUseless! How can you woo Mark with such a pluck?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hazel swings her hair and tries to frighten Elaine, \u201cElaine, if you don\u2019t go in now, then don\u2019t cry if Mark becomes my boyfriend one day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow can you chase after your friend\u2019s crush? Oh my, wicked girl, you are even planning to get my dear senior!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Elaine pulls Hazel into the caf\u00e9 with her chest out.<\/p>\n<p>As Elaine steps into the caf\u00e9 rashly, she\u2019s walking fast without even lifting up her head. Therefore, she almost bumps into a person when she walks in.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, Hazel grabs her in time and she hasn\u2019t bumped onto that person\u2019s chest.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaha, what a coincidence! I was coming out to welcome you, and you walked in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A man\u2019s gentle voice rumbles over Elaine\u2019s head.<\/p>\n<p>Elaine freezes at the spot.<\/p>\n<p>She doesn\u2019t lift her head. She feels her body softening up when hearing his soft voice.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, it\u2019s her dear senior!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMark, were you missing us two so much that you even went out to welcome us?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hazel is always a joker. She chuckles and teases Mark.<\/p>\n<p>Mark blushes all over his face, feeling a bit shy. He quickly glances at Elaine and awkwardly reaches out his hand to lead the way, \u201cCome, seat yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Elaine finally lifts up her head and bites her lower lip while stealing a glance at Mark\u2019s back with sweatiness written all over on her face.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHey, Elaine, Mark glanced at you just now.\u201d Hazel whispers into Elaine\u2019s ear.<\/p>\n<p>Elaine glares at Hazel and replies in a low voice, \u201cKeep your voice down. It would be so embarrassing if he hears it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The three of them seat themselves. Elaine looks at Mark with excitement in her chest, feeling she\u2019s still in a beautiful dream.<\/p>\n<p>Geez! She has had a crush on Mark since senior high school, and this was the first time that Mark had treated her coffee!<\/p>\n<p>They hadn\u2019t talked too much before!<\/p>\n<p>Their conversation could be summarized as below:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSenior, is this yours? It fell down.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOh, thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re welcome.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGoodbye.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Elaine pinches her palm, trying to remind herself with such a sharp pain, that this\u2019s not a dream, but reality!<\/p>\n<p>Just as she\u2019s about to say something, her phone rings. The ringtone is a popular Korean song.<\/p>\n<p>Elaine doesn\u2019t realize that it\u2019s the ringtone of her phone.<\/p>\n<p>She thinks it\u2019s a piece of light music played by the caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p>Hazel and Mark shift their gazes onto her. Hazel nudges her and reminds, \u201cElaine, you phone is ringing. Answer the call!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOh, my phone? Mine?\u201d Elaine is stunned. She rummages through her back before finally find the vibrating phone.<\/p>\n<p>Cold sweats fall down her cheeks.<\/p>\n<p>It turns out that it\u2019s her phone ringing. She hasn\u2019t get accustomed to the ringtone of her new phone yet.<\/p>\n<p>Elaine takes out her phone to answer the call.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHello, who\u2019s it?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat do you think?\u201d Emmett\u2019s calm voice rumbles from the other end of the phone.<\/p>\n<p>Elaine hangs up the phone and finds that both Hazel and Mark are looking at her with astonishment written all over their faces.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy\u2026 Why are you looking at me in this way? Is there something on my face?\u201d Elaine feels something must have been wrong.<\/p>\n<p>She blinks her crystal, big eyes, looking adorable.<\/p>\n<p>Mark chuckles, \u201cNothing. Heh, heh, it\u2019s just that\u2026 Elaine, do you have a boyfriend?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat?\u201d Startled, Elaine gapes, \u201cBoyfriend? What are you talking about?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mark bits his lower lip, \u201cIs the one who called you just now your boyfriend?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe? Hahaha, no, he\u2019s my boss. He\u2019s not my boyfriend.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Elaine smiles and waves her hands in an exaggerated manner and screams in her heart, \u201cOh my, senior, please, don\u2019t doubt me!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Emmett\u2026 and her relationship\u2026 It\u2019s a kind of relationship that will be blamed by the public once being exposed.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not a kosher relationship. She can\u2019t tell it to others or expose it!<\/p>\n<p>A secretary and her boss\u2026 Geez! She\u2019s really the kind of women who sleeps with her own boss.<\/p>\n<p>Hazel also feels award and anxious for Elaine. She tries to explain, \u201cYeah. I haven\u2019t seen him too. He\u2019s Elaine\u2019s employer and he\u2019s good.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cElaine, is your phone newly bought? It\u2019s expensive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mark has always been circumspective. Just now, when he took a glance at Elaine\u2019s phone, he had found out that this was of a limited edition. If there wasn\u2019t a discount, it should be bought at a price of more than 10,000 yuan.<\/p>\n<p>He knows something about Elaine\u2019s family. Her father is a bus driver and has to raise two daughters and pay their tuition fees with his low wage. Therefore, he won\u2019t have spare cash.<\/p>\n<p>Mark\u2019s question is also something that Hazel wants to ask. So Hazel chimes in hastily, \u201cYep, your phone is really classy. Who bought it for you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As soon as the words are uttered, Hazel realizes it\u2019s so inappropriate to ask such a question and hastily covers her mouth with her hands.<\/p>\n<p>Elaine gapes with her eyes widened.<\/p>\n<p>She glances at her classy phone and feels a loss of words. She\u2019s not a good liar after all, plus that Mark, whom she has had a crush on for a long time, is sitting across her, she stammers even more, \u201cI\u2026 I\u2026 I\u2026 My boss accidently broke my phone\u2026 And she compensated me whit this\u2026 I\u2026 I\u2026 have no idea of its price\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The back of her neck breaks out in cold sweats.<\/p>\n<p>Mark feels a bit relieved. After all, he\u2019s quite clear about Elaine\u2019s quality. She\u2019s really pure and innocent. He nods and curls his lips into a light smile, \u201cOh, that\u2019s the case. Your boss is really generous.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hazel immediately chimes in, \u201cYeah, yep, her boss is really generous. And pompous. Heh, heh, it\u2019s quite understandable. Rich people rarely care about this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Elaine puckers up her lips secretly.<\/p>\n<p>Look at how Hazel described Emmett. Is Emmett a silly, generous rich?<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, this topic ends with such a lie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1575","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1575","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1575"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
