Chapter 52 To Be Responsible to the End
Adele forced out a smile and did not say anything else. She just walked in front to lead the way.
As soon as she entered the elevator, she suddenly felt that her hair was gently lifted. She turned around and met Kevin’s pair of charming eyes.
“Mr. Harry, is there a problem…”
Kevin’s face was not red or shy, and his smile was even more charming, “It’s fine. I think you will look good with curly hair.”
Adele was a little stunned. She paused for a moment and smiled at him. “I think Mr. Harry will look good with a buzz cut.”
Kevin’s facial features were stunning. If he was a woman, he would definitely be a great beauty. His hair length was moderate. If it was cut into a buzz cut, he would definitely be more masculine and more attractive.
Hearing her suggestion, Kevin seemed to be a little surprised. After a few seconds, he smiled and said, “buzz cut, I will consider it…”
Soon, the elevator door opened. Adele walked in front and led Kevin and his assistant to the living room.
After that, Adele immediately went to prepare tea.
Then she put down the tea and said in low voice, “Mr. Harry, there is a magazine here. You can take a look to pass the time. If you need anything, you can tell me. I will be at the door.”
“I do need something. I want you to stay and chat with me.” Kevin smiled and stared at her.
“What did you say?” Adele was stunned.
“I need you to stay and chat with me.” Kevin pointed at Adele and smiled.
Kevin’s assistant was stunned. He seemed to think that it was inappropriate and hurriedly advised, “Mr. Harry, don’t mess around…”.
“I didn’t mess around.” Kevin raised his eyebrows and continued to stare at Adele with a smile on his face.
Adele felt her scalp go numb. Was he really coming to talk about cooperation? Why did it feel like he was here to flirt with a girl?
She sucked in a breath of cold air and squeezed out a smile and said, “Coincidentally, I don’t have any other work for the time being. It’s fine to accompany Mr. Harry for a chat.”
“Come, sit here.” Kevin patted the sofa beside him.
Adele clenched her fists and slowly walked to the sofa to sit down.
“How old is Ms. Wes? Do you have a boyfriend?” Kevin asked with a smile.
Adele took a deep breath, “Mr. Harry, I don’t answer personal questions during work.”
“Well, I’ll keep the two questions for now and ask you when you get off work,” he said with a smile.
As he spoke, he picked up the teacup and took a sip. “Ms. Wes, this tea seems to be cold.” He said softly.
Adele looked at the hot tea in confusion, “Cold?”
Kevin smiled, “Yes, I think it is cold. I like hot drinks.”
“Then I will make another cup for Mr. Harry.”
She stood up, picked up the cup and left the living room.
Only then did she understand why Grace didn’t personally receive him and instead asked her to receive Mr. Harry. It turned out that he was so difficult to deal with!
After making tea with boiling hot water, Adele returned to the living room with the teacup in her hand. She placed it in front of Kevin and said patiently, “Mr. Harry, try this one. Is it fine?”
Kevin took the cup and brought it to his lips. He tested the temperature and suddenly frowned, “It’s a little too hot.”
As he spoke, he passed the cup to Adele and smiled harmlessly, “Why don’t you help me blow it?”
When Adele heard this, her temples couldn’t help but throb. This Kevin was really challenging the limits of her tolerance!
She gritted her teeth and could only reach out to take the cup to blew on it.
Kevin’s assistant, who was at the side, couldn’t take it anymore and deliberately cleared his throat. “Mr. Harry, why don’t you look at the documents again…”
Before he could finish speaking, Kevin turned around and rolled his eyes at him. “Can’t you see that I’m flirting with girls? Shut up!”
Hearing the word “flirt”, Adele was shocked. The hand holding the cup unconsciously trembled, and the hot tea directly splashed out of the cup.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
“Hiss -”
Kevin, who was at the side, suddenly gasped and frowned. Adele lowered her head and found that the water spilled out of the cup just happened to spill on his arm!
Adele was shocked and quickly put down the cup, “Sorry… sorry! Did it burn?”
As she spoke, she reached out and pulled Kevin’s arm, pulling his sleeve open. Sure enough, the man’s forearm was red.
“Wait a moment.”
Adele immediately got up and walked out of the reception room. When she returned, she brought a bag of ice with her, “Put it on first to avoid it getting worse.”
As she spoke, she pulled Kevin’s hand and placed the ice bag on his red skin.
Kevin narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the side of the woman’s face. A smile appeared on his face.
He, Kevin, was a famous playboy. His favorite thing was to tease the girl. When he was in a bad mood, he would bully the girl until she cried. There were two kinds of girls around him, one who avoided him and one who flattered him.
And Adele was different from those women.
“Ms. Wes, are you free after work today?” he asked with a chuckle.
“I’m not free,” Adele answered without hesitation.
Hearing these two words, Kevin was not surprised. The smile in his eyes seemed deepened.
Suddenly, footsteps came from the door, then Kevin’s assistant said, “Mr. Harry, Mr. Yusuf is here.”
Hearing the word “Mr. Yusuf”, Adele’s hand that was holding the ice bag suddenly shook. She looked up and saw Damon standing at the door, staring at them coldly.
In the next second, she quickly withdrew her hand that was holding the ice bag and stood up. “Mr. Yusuf…”
In contrast, Kevin was much calmer. He raised his eyebrows and glanced at Damon. Finally, his eyes stopped on Adele. “Ms. Wes, you have scalded me. You have to be responsible for it to the end.”
It was unknown whether it was intentional or not, but when he said this, his tone deliberately dragged out, causing others to think of weird things.
Sure enough, Damon, who was standing at the door, looked even scarier. He frowned slightly and looked at Kevin coldly.
Adele knew that it was not suitable for her to be here. She put down the ice bag and said softly, “Since Mr. Yusuf is here, I will go to continue my other work first.”
After that, she lowered her head and walked out quickly.
When she walked past Damon, she could clearly feel the pressure on the man, which scared her so much that she did not dare to breathe.
When she came out of the reception room, she heaved a sigh of relief.
She had only taken a few steps when someone suddenly called out to her from behind.
Adele turned around and saw Ben chasing after her.
“Assistant Johnson, what’s wrong?”
Ben walked up to her and said with a complicated look in his eyes, “Mr. Yusuf said that he wanted you to wait for him in the lounge next to the living room. He said that he would have something to say to you when he is done.”
When Adele heard this, her heart sunk.
What was Damon going to tell her? Why did she feel so uneasy?
