Chapter 46
Trista’s point of view
I checked the time after closing the file. In half an hour, I’ll be done with work. Should I go home with him? However, being noticed didn’t appear to be a good thing!
“Congratulations!” Suddenly, a beautiful feminine voice could be heard. When I looked up, I saw Emma.
“Ms. Emma, you’re back,” I welcomed her with a handshake and a cordial greeting.
“I heard you temporarily assumed the role of Ms. Sylvia. As a beginner, I’m astounded that you got such a good outcome in half a day.” Emma was always holding my hand. Her remarks have a deeper meaning.
“Dear Ms. Emma, I’m honored. It’s purely coincidental.”
“Elroy, oh, he’s only one of our company’s directors. He explained that something really important had dropped at our department’s gate around midday and inquired who was in the office at that time. It was around 12 o’clock.”
Emma’s remarks caused my heart to race. “I…. I’m not sure.”
Will those two men deal with me so quickly? Will they kill me if they find out I stayed in the office until noon?
“Ms. Emma, what do you mean?” I inquired with a smile, shivering at the thought.
“I’m currently working on a project. You can take responsibility for it for the time being because you are the deputy director. You inquire and report back to me in the morning.” Emma smiled as she walked away in her high heels.
How could I have been so foolish as to report myself? Will Brenda be the scapegoat if I don’t admit it?
“Wow!” Brenda’s voice suddenly came through, “Didn’t you see what happened just now, Trista? Sylvia’s expression is even more painful than eating shit….”Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“Don’t take things too far.” “After all, we have to pay it back sooner or later,” I replied as I went through the documentation.
“We have been courteous!” Brenda sat down on the table, her two legs trembling. “These cowards are terrified of harming Sylvia. Fortunately, I’m not easy to deal with. She used to bully me, and now I’m going to bully her again!
“It’s time to go, Trista. Isn’t it time for you to report to Mr. Donald?” A female coworker glanced at the clock and said, “Go ahead and do it. Mr. Donald must be met ahead of time. It was six o’clock,. You should get to his door before six o’clock.”
“That’s correct. Go ahead and do it!” Brenda pushed me with her hand outstretched. “In the Department group tonight, I will advise you of the date and time. It’s important to remember to keep an eye on it.”
Before I could say anything, she shoved me out of the office.
I stumbled helplessly to the elevator and paused. Is Donald’s office truly where I’m going?
Wouldn’t it be nice to accompany him home?
The elevator door opened and Ira got out just as I was pondering my options. “Miss Trista, where have you been? Donald requested that I pick you up from work.”
“Can you tell me where he is?”
“sitting in my car waiting.”
To the garage, I followed Ira. The garage is unusually quiet because it is not yet time to leave work, and no one will notice us.
I took a cautious look around. Ira helped me in by opening the door. “Where is Donald?” I wondered, perplexed.
Why hadn’t she gotten in the car?
Ira’s eyes gleamed with a trace of emotion. She calmly stated, “Master is in a different configuration. Miss Trista will be sent to meet him.”
A fancy limo pulled up to the intersection five minutes later. Donald was waiting for me in the car when I arrived.
“Don’t hold your breath for me the next time. After all, I am your underling. It’s not nice to be noticed.” It’s all right this time. I’m not going to do it again.
“After work, you’ll be my wife. Picking up my wife is normal for your hubby.” “Close your eyes,” Donald murmured as he reached out to pull me over.
“What’s the matter?”
“Close your eyes.”
I obeyed by closing my eyes. I’m not sure what he’s up to. He’s very enigmatic.
My ring finger was suddenly encrusted with a diamond ring. I saw a bright ring with a distinctive style and a fresh shape when I opened my eyes. It was immediately noticeable.
“Well….”
“I didn’t throw you a wedding or give you a present. This ring is a testament to our love.” Donald gave me a gentle glance “From conception to completion, it took twelve days. It is the most one-of-a-kind ring in the world.”
“Did you come up with the idea?” I was a little taken aback.
Did he have any experience with ring design?
“Do you think it’s good?”
“Yes,” I said with a nod.
For a long, I couldn’t accept this gift because it came so unexpectedly.
“Since you enjoy it, I feel obligated to give you a good reward.”
“Do you want to reward me?
Donald’s lips were already near to mine before I could react, so I wanted to say something.
My body was engulfed in a warm current. By impulse, I wanted to shove him away, but when I remembered my current relationship with him, I put my hand down and let him kiss me blankly.
I can sense his zeal and untamedness.
My face was burning after the long French kiss.
The Lion group’s latest important advances were covered on television. I hastily turned on the television, but after a few moments, the screen switched to a different group. My eyes were astonished, and I couldn’t believe what I was seeing.
“According to my knowledge, the Star group recently invited the entire jewelry design team overseas in preparation for the debut of a new jewelry line. Since the heir’s death, the reporter has learned that the heir’s shares would be given to his prospective son-in-law, Mr. Emos, the Nash group’s successor….”
I felt horrible and tightened my hands.
They mistook me for dead and transferred my entire inheritance to Emos?
They have no right to do that!
“Mr. Emos and Miss Ashley of the Swift family, according to the interview, have a great friendship. Wherever they travel, the family and Molly get along swimmingly, which makes others envious. The family and Molly were invited to the real estate ribbon-cutting ceremony today….”
I gave them a chilly stare. Did they go to a public area so quickly in the name of a couple?
“I’ve arrived.”
A hand suddenly caressed my hair. “I’ll take care of their business. I’m going to make everyone who isn’t nice to you pay a high price.”
“Donald……”
“I understand what you’re trying to express.” He gave a slight smile “Don’t be concerned. I’m very aware of what I’m doing.”
My heart began to warm as soon as I heard what he said.
