Chapter 438:The Back was Familiar.
Wendy felt very tired this day. Her company was developing a new project these days, all the staff was very busy. She also needed to work overtime tonight which made Wendy want to beg for comfort.
Finally, it was the time to go off work. Wendy turned off the computer, set a few layers of password, and then locked the important documents into the safe. the outside of the safe was fingerprint lock, inside was the password lock. Therefore, it would not be so easy to open. And her office door was also special, she only opened it at the worktime.
It showed how important this project was, there must be no accident.
Wendy left the office with her bag and went off work after telling the secretaries. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Joey Lan was tired after being accused of doing many things the whole day. She had never done these chores before. Her hands were meant to play the piano. Why she had to buy coffee, lunch or print papers for these inferior men?
Joey was very angry when she thought about it. She saw everyone leave but none of them greeted to her. And then when she looked at the general manager's door, the mobile phone vibrated.
Joey took back her gazes and found it was a message from Duke Field. It said that he was already waiting for her downstairs to pick her up home.
Joey stopped complaining and picked up her bag and ran outside. Soon she was downstairs and saw Duke leaning next to a silver Rolls-Royce.
“Duke" Joey rushed to Duke like a butterfly and was not as angry as she had been. Maybe she saw that Wendy come out from the other side of the exit down, she deliberately kissed Duke on his face.
Duke did not care, but reached out naturally to take her bag, "How about the first day at work? Is it hard? "
Wendy who came over and heard Duke's words, she thought, “If you think the work is too hard, why don’t you keep her at home instead of sending her to work?”
As Wendy was about to go to the other side of her car, Joey suddenly said, "of course not, because there is Wendy to take care of me. What I am afraid of as Wendy is here?"
Joey was intentional because she knew that if she said it at this time, Duke would let Wendy take care of her. Then Wendy wouldn't embarrass her for the sake of Duke, even if she didn't want to take care of her.
Wendy took a slight step, then turned sideways to look at Joey, and saw a smile of relief on her face.
"Wendy, I thank you first. It’s Joey’s first time to work, please forgive her if she does something wrong." Duke’s words were considerate and all for Joey.
But Wendy felt anxious, not for Duke’s words but for Joey’s proud expression.
"It doesn't matter, as long as she keeps her part and does what she should do." Wendy said perfunctorily, looking at Duke indifferently. Although Duke was so wise, but he still didn’t know what Wendy thought through her eyes.
Secret love was different from like, which doomed to not be known. Every person who knew secret love, would certainly disguise themselves.
And Wendy, after all these years of disguising, she could hide her like easily if she didn’t want Duke to know it.
Even Joey was surprised, didn’t Wendy like Duke, or how would she refuse his request?
Just as Joey and Duke were thinking, Wendy had left, got into her car, and went away.
Joey bit her lips, thinking of what Wendy said in the restaurant that day, she felt upset. How could Wendy give up the man she had tried her best to have so easily?
“Let's go.” Duke frowned. The memory of being stabbed and then rescued by Joey appeared in his mind for no reason, but the figure who blocked the knife for him was a little blurred.
Wendy’s back was very familiar.
“Duke, thank you for taking me home." Joey saw Duke staring at Winnie's back dazed, she felt a little panicked, hurriedly hugged his arm.
“Silly girl.” Duke's mind was drawn back by her, did not think again, fastened Joey's seat belt, and then started the car to leave here.
For the next few days, Joey was more obedient, and did not clearly go against Wendy. She was probably afraid of the chores that commended by the secretaries, becoming well-behaved and did what the secretaries asked. Therefore, those in the secretarial department didn’t go too far with her.
Listening to the assistant report the news, Wendy nodded to signal that she got it. Then she yawned, unlocked the computer to open the page, that was the page of the project which belonged to the top secret.
It took a long time for Wendy to divert her eyes from the computer. She pressed around her eyes to relieve her eye fatigue, and then took off the radiation-proof glasses she was wearing.
At the end of this project, she would have a good rest. If it was not for Dan William who hated to part with Jamie, she really wanted to go around the world with her!
She just thought about it for a while, after all, there's such a bomb here.
Wendy rubbed her eyes, then turned the page off, tapped her finger on the keyboard a few times, and then moved another page to the table. After that she got up and walked to the bathroom that in the office.
"Wendy, the cooperation case with Lan’s was suddenly interrupted, and the president asked you to come over and have a look." As soon as Wendy came out of the bathroom, she saw the assistant rush in and said to her.
"What's going on?" How did it suddenly break?”
"The land was first demolished in protest, and in the end, we went under pressure to develop it, causing a lot of residents' dissatisfaction, so ..."
Wendy nodded and packed her things into her bag, “Well, I’m going to have a look.”
"I'll go with you." The assistant was not reassured, after all, Wendy was a woman, and those residents would not be polite in the case of their own interested damaged.
Wendy didn't object and left with her assistant.
Wendy and the assistant still did not come back at noon. It was the time for lunch, the workers of secretarial department left the office to eat. However, Joey was lying on the table without moving. These days she had a good relationship with the colleagues, so a few people came to ask her if she was sick.
Joey looked a little pale and shook her head, "You go to lunch, I'm just in my period and a little uncomfortable, just bring me a bag of tampons."
"Well, let's go first and bring you food back."
Joey nodded weakly, lying on the table, and finally waited to hear the sound of the door. After that she sat up, ran to the door to make sure that there was no one outside the door
