Take Me Away

Chapter 53 He Has Never Kissed You

At this moment, the sound of someone knocking on the door was heard. Then, the door was pushed

open. A slightly-built but well-dressed man entered.

"Pardon my sudden intrusion, but I was told that there are two interns here. I am in need of an

assistant," he said. Stopping in front of Fiona and Sophia, he took some time looking at them as if he

were checking goods. He then nodded with satisfaction and pointed at Fiona. "I want this girl, Celine!"

he declared.

'Yeah, right! As if I would let you choose me!' Sophia groaned inwardly as she rolled her eyes.

"Jason, I am so sorry about this." Celine raised her eyebrows as she looked at Fiona with a lopsided

grin. "I already have my eyes on this one. I guess you have no choice but to go with the other girl!"

The look on Fiona's face was completely unreadable, as if she didn't hear any word of what they just

said. However, after she finally processed that neither Jason nor Celine wanted her, Sophia was furious

and angrily shouted, "Excuse me? So I'm not good enough for either of you? I may not look it now but

mark my words: I'm going to be a very famous designer in the future. So don't you dare look down on

me."

"You're ill-tempered and rude. I wouldn't chance it," Jason said. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

"If you don't want her, then you can only leave," Celine said.

Upon hearing that, Jason sighed and waved his hand in surrender. He then pointed at Sophia and said,

"All right! You there! You're coming with me. We have much to discuss and a lot of work ahead!"

"Humph!" was all that Sophia could muster. Seeing this, Fiona had no choice but to pull her fiend's

sleeve saying, "Come on, Sophia! No need to be upset. We are here for internship after all."

Casting a worried look at Fiona, Sophia said, "I'm leaving with him. Let's have lunch together."

"Okay," Fiona replied. "Work hard."

"No need to worry!" Balling her fists, Sophia nodded. "I'll try my best!"

"For goodness sake! What took you so long?" Seeing that Sophia still wasn't following him, Jason

turned around and pointed at the watch on his wrist. "I've wasted three whole minutes waiting for you!

Get over here, now!"

"I have a name! It's Sophia!" With an irritated look on her face, Sophia turned her as she got up to

follow Jason out of the room.

"I don't give a damn about your name!"

"Fine! Then I don't care what your name is either!"

Fiona was surprised as she heard the quarrel between Sophia and Jason, even as the door closed.

She gathered herself and asked Celine, "What's my role as your intern?"

Celine didn't answer the question, but looked at Fiona carefully. 'She's very beautiful. And young! She

is ten years younger than me. Age is a very big deal for women. Besides, Spencer has already married

her.'

There was a quick flash of pain on Celine's face as she winced at the thought, but it disappeared

instantly. Regaining her composure, she steeled herself as she raised her eyebrows and said

arrogantly, "From this point on, I will be your superior. You must meet all my requirements and do as I

say. You are not allowed to refute me, nor break any rules of the company. You are also not allowed to

make your own decisions. As is standard for interns, you are expected do the chores. If I deem it

necessary, I'll require you to participate in the design of the products."

Lowering her eyes so as not to meet Celine's gaze, Fiona simply nodded, "Okay."

Noticing that Fiona didn't get angry at her words, Celine was annoyed. No matter how much she said to

her, all she got from Fiona was the same short response of "Okay." Celine frowned and asked angrily,

"Are you looking down on me?"

Fiona was surprised at this and thought, 'What's wrong with her? She's exactly like Spencer.'

"I don't know what you mean." Fiona tried to speak as gently as possible. "I never look down upon

anyone. If my attitude caused any misunderstanding, I'm sorry."

"Humph! I'm an outstanding jewelry designer and I've won many awards. Seeing as you're just a

student now, I believe I deserve some respect at least," Celine said arrogantly. "What's more, I didn't

expect to see that both of us are in the same field. I hope you can work hard and surpass me one day."

"Thank you. I will try my very best," Fiona replied.

"One more thing," Celine added. "Spencer is mine. You may have married him, but he doesn't love

you."

Fiona raised her head to look at Celine. Suddenly, she felt a bit of dryness in her throat. "Do you think

it's possible for you to get back together? Whether he belongs to you or not, that's for him to decide."

"I can convince him to change his mind," Celine said proudly. "Even if you two got married, so what?

Do you know how much he loves me? If it wasn't because of his family, we would have gotten married

already. I chose to come back on your wedding day. You should have known my determination."

"Since you love him so much, then do whatever you want with him. It doesn't really matter to me what

you two want, as long as you don't hurt his family. Most especially, his grandpa. He's getting old, really

old. You better be careful about your actions. I'll leave him sooner or later," Fiona said indifferently, as

she turned to look away.

One day, she would leave Spencer and live the life she wanted freely, with no one to stop her.

Perhaps she would be alone, or perhaps there would be someone by her side to accompany her, but

she knew that if there was someone who could accompany her, it most surely would not be Spencer.

"You're going to leave him?" Celine asked. Furrowing her eyebrows. she took some time to process

and digest the news. "But you two are a couple, don't you?"

The color drained from Fiona's face as realization dawned on her. Painful memories swirled in her

mind. "We've got our marriage certificates. Didn't he tell you about it?"

"I mean, have you two even slept together yet?"

"What?" She didn't expect that Celine would ask her such a direct and embarrassing question. Her face

suddenly turned red, and she found it difficult to even find words. "I... I mean..."

"Oh. I see." Turning her head to one side, Celine gave Fiona a sarcastic smile, which seemed like she

didn't care at all. "It doesn't matter anyway. He's a man, after all. But I'm sure he has no feelings for

you."

As she spoke, it suddenly occurred to Celine that on the night of the wedding, she walked into the room

where Spencer was staying and overheard that he had prepared a birthday gift for Fiona. As she

thought about this, Celine was unsure of Spencer's feelings. After all, they had not seen each other for

six years! Would there be a lot of changes?

Fiona raised her lips as she thought, 'He has no feelings for me? It's not like that. Spencer hates me

because of Celine.' All of a sudden, Fiona felt so sad. She knew that Spencer had sex with her just so

that he could get back at her, but she still felt bad when the truth was revealed, especially by Celine.

"He has never kissed you, right?" Seeing that Fiona's face was slowly overcome with sadness, Celine

continued, "I once told him not to kiss any other woman in his life. He promised me he wouldn't.

Although he returned to the base as soon as I came back, I believe in him. I believe he would keep his

promise to me."

With a frown, Fiona recalled, 'Except for that light kiss in the base a long time ago, Spencer never

kissed me again.' Kissing was something that could not be done by two people who were in love. Even

if Spencer did want to kiss her, she wouldn't agree.

"I think we have discussed a lot already." It was hard for Fiona to continue this conversation with Celine

about Spencer. "Is there anything else I can do for you?"

Shrugging, Celine replied, "I think we still have a lot of things to talk about, but you're right. Let's call it a

day." She then turned around and walked to the desk to pick up a couple of documents. Turning to

Fiona, she said, "Make a copy of these documents and make sure that they are in the correct order."

"Okay," Fiona replied. She walked towards Celine, took the documents, and ran out of the office

quickly.

As she looked on at the disappearing figure of Fiona, Celine was unwilling to give up. She had made

great efforts to get something that couldn't be attained easily, such as being appreciated by Wayne,

marrying Spencer, and so on. However, Fiona obtained all these easily. It was all so unfair! But so what

if things were unfair? She would win over them one by one!

It was now lunch time, as employees of the ZR Company entered the canteen. Sophia and Fiona were

among them.

"We sit here!" Plate in her hand, Sophia managed to drag Fiona to a table and started to eat her lunch

greedily.

"Hey! Slow down! No one's gonna take your food away." Fiona wanted to laugh. "Did you have a busy

morning? You look tired. And hungry, too."

"Goodness! You bet I am! I'm so tired!" Sophia replied. "Jason always makes me run a lot of errands!

How can he vent his anger on me when he can't even design a thing? He is so irritating!"

"Now, now, no need be angry," Fiona coaxed her, picking up a piece of meat with her fork and putting it

onto Sophia's plate. "Here, have some more. Just take it easy."

"Aww. Thanks! You're so sweet, Fiona!" Sophia smiled. "What did you do this morning anyway?"

"I just pack up some files, have them printed and run other errands." "Oh. So we're pretty much the

same," Sophia commented. As Fiona was looking up, an imposing man walked into the canteen. "Our

boss is here," she said.

"Who?" Turning around towards the man Fiona mentioned, Sophia saw that a well-dressed Charles

was walking into the canteen, with a faint smile on his face.
