Chapter 139: White Roses
Chapter 139: White Roses
All the morning, Cathy was uneasy and could not work well. Until lunch break, after lunch, she took advantage of the rest of the people and went to the Personnel Department. "Huh? Manager Lawson, do you need any help?"
Several staff members of the Personnel Department were talking about gossip in a small voice. When they saw her come in, they all stopped talking and greeted with laughter. Cathy smiled and waved. "You go on, and don't care about me, I'll come and check something."
Several people asked her about the injury on her forehead and then continued to chat in a low voice.
Cathy went to the computer and called a person casually. He whispered, "You turn on the system. I'll check the information of some employees in my department."
"Okay, wait a minute."
The female clerk opened the system flexibly with her fingers and smiled at her. "Okay."
"Well, go and play. I'll do it myself." Cathy smiled at her and sat in her seat.
She flipped through it at will and waited for the person behind her to walk away. She opened the input method and knocked on the name of the Aaron. She hesitated for a second and clicked the return key. The page jumped out of a file. It was a positive photo, the boy's young and handsome face with a slight smile.
She quickly turned her eyes to the form, her face expressionless. She focused, and her fingers sliding down the page with the mouse.
The University of Southern California! Aaron was graduated from this university.
The whole file was very long and he had many honors. He was excellent in almost all aspects.
The more she looked down, the more shocked she was. After reading it, she quickly pulled the page back to the top and fixed her eyes on his relatives.
He didn't write about the father, but there were only a few words in a column about his mother.
It turned out that he had his mother's surname.
She shut down the computer and left the personnel department until she returned to her office. Cathy did not recover from the shock.
With his beautiful honors, even he went to LT Company, he did not have to worry about admission. Why did he choose to a small company like Vanten Technology Company as an intern? And his major also di not match his job.
His mother...
Cathy's eyes glittered. Is it related to his mother?
She took a breath, lifted her cup and took a sip. She calmed her heart and went to the window. Her beautiful eyebrows were frowned tightly. She looked very dignified.
Cathy didn't understand why she cared so much about his words. She even went there to look through his files. Life was not always successful. Everyone had their own misery including her family. Her father was corrupt and imprisoned. Why should she be so worried about his mother's suicide?
Moreover, she always felt that he had something hiding in his eyes when he said those words.
But she didn't know her mother. Maybe she look like her mother?
This idea made Cathy feel ridiculous. Was this such out-dated? She pressed her eyebrows impatiently and wanted to throw away the messy things.
Suddenly there was a knock outside the door.
She startled, looked at the door, fixed her hair with her hands, and recovered as usual. Her voice was faint. "Come in, please."
The door was pushed open. A head popped in, and eyes opened widely. She excitedly smiled at her," Sister Cathy, you come out quickly."
"What's wrong?" Cathy looked puzzled. She hesitated for two seconds and walked out.
In the office area of the department, there were people with gossip faces and a uniformed man standing in the middle of the room... There was a big bunch of white roses in his arms.
Cathy's eyes changed and she felt familiar with the scene.
"Hello, are you Miss Cathy Lawson?"
"Uh... I am." Cathy frowned somewhat confusedly.
Didn't James say he couldn't do such a thing?
The red rose was replaced by the white one today.
"This is your flower. Please sign and accept it."
Cathy did not take it, but looked at the crowd embarrassingly and pulled the little brother outside. "Excuse me, may I ask, who ordered flowers?"
"Sorry, it's anonymous." The little brother nodded apologetically and handed the list up again. "Miss, please sign your name."
Cathy's eyebrows tightened, looked at the list, then shook her head and smiled, "Sorry, I won't accept the flowers, you could return and talk to that person truthfully after you go back. As for the loss, I will pay
it."
She took his pen, neatly wrote down her cell phone number on the back of the list, closed the lid and returned it to him. "This is my number. You could calculate the loss later, and then just call me. Thank you." After that, she smiled gently, nodded and turned away.
"Ah Miss Lawson..." The little brother was stunned. He couldn't stop her.
Cathy returned and went through the office area. Someone immediately came up and said, "Sister Cathy, sister Cathy, was it sent by that gentleman last time?"
"Red roses, white roses. His aim is too obvious. Sister Cathy, I envy you." There were girls giggling.
Cathy compressed her lips in embarrassment and pretended to laugh calmly. "Don't fantasize about it. The customer sent it. I refused to accept it. It won't happen next time."
Someone continued to joke, "Why do my clients only send brand dolls and calendars? I also want flowers."
"could you compare with our manager? Sending calendars is superfluous." Fat man pouted and said a sentence, and then smiled at Cathy. "Sister Cathy, aren't you single now? We absolutely support you again..."
Before the words were finished, he was kicked by others who were next to him.
Cathy just stunned for a moment. But she did not say much, just joking, "Your manager is so young and beautiful. You still need to worry about these?"
It seemed that her divorce has finally spread throughout the company.
"That's absolutely impossible to find a woman like you with a lantern." Someone immediately got into a hubbub.
Cathy wanted to say something. Her phone rang in time. She laughed and said, "Go to work."
Taking out the cell phone, she had a glance in the direction of Aaron.Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
The boy was working hard on the computer. He could not be seen anything unusual. He was quiet which did not match the laughter around him. But she was not surprised at all, as if this was what the child really looked like.
Without a very stable mentality, how could he achieved so much. She could even be sure to put him in her position. He could do better than her. Go back to the office and close the door. She answered the phone.
"Hello."
"You are resting?"
Cathy's eye flashed slightly. She went back to the chair behind her desk, sat down, rubbed her temples, and said quietly, "No, what's wrong with you?"
"Well, just now someone told me that the flowers weren't sent out. So I called you to ask."
The man said with idle and gentle tone, like saying something unimportant, but let Cathy's face change. She immediately put down her hand, and murmured, "You ordered the flowers?"
White Roses.
Red roses... Yes, at the airport that day, James mentioned that he sent flowers. Otherwise...
"You don't like it. I'll send another to you next time."
