Chapter 25: Heroes Rescue Beauty
Along the way, Ella Williams stood in the subway, has been thinking about Lillian James's words. "I need to get this divorce done."
Otherwise, Lillian will just continue to urge me to have a child in every other month. She has been doing this for six months!
She texted Benjamin Johnson, "When do you have time? Bring the documents and let's get the divorce done."
She held the phone for ten minutes but did not get any response.
She decided to call Alice Walker.
As soon as they got connected, Alice said, "Ella, did Benjamin do anything to you last night?"
"No, I slept in the guest room. His mother came and won't be leaving for the next few days. But I won't be back to the villa tonight. I'll see you tonight."
Alice just got up and sounded quite gratified, "That's what you should do! Don't get involved with Benjamin Johnson anymore, or you will never get away from him! You need to divorce now!"
"Well, I knew it. Don't worry, I'm done with him." Ella's voice sounded calm, but she still felt a pain in her heart.
"That's right. By the way, are you free tonight? If you don't need to work, let's go to a party. My dad is abroad and my mom hurt her back. They asked me to go to the party for the business partners out there."
Ella thought for a while. It's just a party. "OK, if I don't have to work overtime, I tell you in advance."
"Well,I will wait for your word!!"
After arriving at the company, Ella sat down for a while and heard that next Wednesday is the company's 60th anniversary.
At that day, not only the board of directors will attend the party, the retired chairman and his wife will also be presented.
The design department already got excited. Everyone was chatting since the director didn't come yet.
"I'm going to get myself a gown after work today! You need to plan early for the 60th anniversary!"
"Oh My God! Look at me! Having forgotten such an important thing and now it's too late to lose weight."
"Who are you losing for? You already have a boyfriend. All the single guys in the company are not available for you!"
"I am so excited! It is said that we will meet our president!"
"I've heard from other departments that our president is such a handsome guy!"
" I heard that, too…"
Ella did not join their discussions but started to work.
Unlike her colleagues, all she remembered about Aiden Hill was involved with mixed feelings and slightly fear.
It's not only because he had her sexy pictures in hand, but also because he was her boss now."
As the saying goes, one rank superior crushes the inferior. Her position, not to mention, is way inferior from Aiden Hill's.
The director, Daniel Nelson, stepped into the office. All the office was quiet.
Daniel stood still with a cool tone, "Ten minutes later, I will release the theme of the internal competition of the design department. You need to submit your design in three days. The top three can participate in the design project of TangWen Media's public tender."
All the designers glowed with desire, including Ella.
Tangwen Media is one of the largest media companies in this city and even the whole country, and it is conceivable that if the project went well, the designers involved in the project would get quite an amount of bonus.
Daniel left a word and left,"The person who gets first place will become my design assistant."
The office went into chaos. As soon as he left, the designers started to whisper.
Hearing some of their words, Ella learned that Daniel Nelson had not accepted designer assistant for three years.
And if this time one can become his assistant, not only will he have the chance to go abroad frequently, but have the salary tripled!
Not to mention the bonus which will also be paid for extra two natural months and let alone the priority to participate in major projects!
Being Daniel's assistant has become a common goal for all designers in the office.
Even Ella was ambitious. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
But the three-day deadline was enough to get the department fight.
Ten minutes later, the whole design department received an email from Daniel on the theme and requirements of the competition.
Ella checked it and started to work.
She kept working, having a sandwich for lunch and finally finishing her work ahead of schedule.
Not getting any more work, Ella texted Alice, saying that she could manage to the banquet.
At 9 p.m., Alice picked up Ella and drove to a private villa.
They just entered the hall and Ella's clothes was spilled by a drunk president.
Alice was about to scold him when Ella pulled her to leave, "Forget it, he is your dad's business partner.Let's just leave.."
"But Ella, your dress is dirty..."
Ella smiled, "It's OK, just go and congratulate the birthday person tonight and present him your gift. I'll go to the restroom myself."
"Ella, I'm so sorry."Looking at Ella's white dress, Alice was filled with tangle.
"Never mind. Go ahead, I'll see you later."
Ella went to the restroom near the hall, only to see a few women doing their makeups. There was no room for her.
She left the bathroom here and went an upstairs one.
It had been nearly 20 minutes since she got into the bathroom. She barely scrubbed the red wine stains, but the dress still had water marks on it. She used toilet paper for several times but it was still obvious that the clothes inside the dress could be seen.
She sighed and walked out of the bathroom, wanting to stand in the hallway for a while.
A foreigner came out of men's room and noticed Ella, getting some dirty thoughts.
He stepped forward, smiling miserly, "Chick, give me a price, how much should I pay on fucking you?"
Although he spoke poor Mandarin, but she soon understood it and scolded, "What's wrong with you? Go away, lunatic!"
Her words annoyed the foreigner. He raised his hand to hit her with F-word coming out of his mouth.
Ella was scared and stepped back. Seeing the slap was coming, a male hand grasped the foreigner's arm and punched him instead.
The foreigner was knocked to the ground with blood coming out of his nose, beaten and completely unable to get up.
"Who do you think you are?" A cold voice from Aiden Hill.
Soon, two bodyguards in black came. Their eyes panicked, and bowed to Aiden at once: "President Hill, it's our fault..."
"Get this thing out."
"Yes, Sir!"
The bodyguard immediately dragged the foreigner away.
Although surprised to meet Aiden here, Ella said: "Thank you."
Looked at Ella with decent clothes, a slight anger appeared in Aiden's eyes. Seeing the water stains on her dress, his dark eyes were suddenly darkened, dragging her arm angrily and strode forward.
Ella followed him with jumbled trot, "Hey, where are we going?"
