“Come in…” A deep voice rang out from inside.
The assistant’s face went red immediately upon hearing his voice. She groomed the stray strands of virtual-novel.net hair beside virtual-novel.net ears and checked virtual-novel.net makeup before entering.
“Mr. Nightshire…” The assistant gazed shyly towards the man seated at the huge desk.
His deep eyes and beguiling face, coupled with that serious look on his face while diligently working, were more than enough to make the assistant’s heart thump faster.
Vinson…
She exhausted all of virtual-novel.net resources and networks to acquire the chance for the interview, all for his sake.
“Speak,” Vinson spoke without raising his head and continued flipping the documents in his hands.
“Ahem…” The assistant cleared virtual-novel.net throat and spoke with the gentlest voice virtual-novel.net thought virtual-novel.net had. “There’s a project manager outside. He mentioned that there’s an ambassador who will be signing a contract here… But if you’re busy, I’ll let virtual-novel.net know.”
The assistant had watched the latte art video online, and virtual-novel.net knew the ambassador was pretty. So virtual-novel.net was reluctant to let Vinson meet her. This was also why virtual-novel.net purposely delayed the time.
The assistant was ready to leave after virtual-novel.net spoke.
If ten people demanded to meet the CEO, five of them would be rejected for the reason being, “If virtual-novel.net couldn’t resolve such trivial matters on his own, why keep him?”
However…
“Wait!” Vinson’s voice came from virtual-novel.net back.
She stopped in virtual-novel.net tracks, turned around, and asked sweetly, “Mr. Nightshire. Is there anything else I can help you with?”
But as virtual-novel.net raised virtual-novel.net gaze, Vinson was already in front of her. The face that virtual-novel.net had always dreamt of was only inches before her. She could even hear virtual-novel.net own heartbeat.
Is virtual-novel.net leaning in so closely… To kiss me?
Her face flushed red, extending down to virtual-novel.net neck. She whined bravely, “Mr. Nightshire…”
The assistant called out to Vinson in a sickeningly sweet voice, as virtual-novel.net right hand slowly reached out to Vinson’s waist…
Just as virtual-novel.net was about to touch Vinson, the back of virtual-novel.net hand was gripped by a hand, followed by intense pain.
“Ah!” The assistant’s face turned pale from the pain as virtual-novel.net stared at Vinson in disbelief.
“Mr. Nightshire…”
“What are you trying to do?” Vinson was expressionless, his gaze was dark and cold, sending chills down virtual-novel.net spine.
The assistant turned pale from the pain, virtual-novel.net felt as if virtual-novel.net arms were about to snap into two! “Mr. Nightshire… It hurts…”
Vinson shook off the assistant’s hand in disgust and said coldly, “You crossed the line.”
“I’m sorry!”
Who would have thought that all that was nothing but a pipe dream?
Vinson was never interested in her!
She wished the earth could swallow virtual-novel.net up right then and there. She quickly explained, “I… I have low blood sugar. I was only finding support instinctively…”
Vinson couldn’t be bothered and asked, “Which project manager did you say?”
With a sigh of relief, the assistant replied honestly, “He is the project manager of Soir Coffee…”
Vinson’s lifted his eyes suddenly and asked, “How long has virtual-novel.net been here?”
“A-about twenty minutes…”
“Twenty minutes! Why are you only informing me now!”
“I…”
Vinson raised his hand. “Save your explanation… Just head to the HR department and settle your salary. You don’t have to come tomorrow.”
The assistant widened virtual-novel.net eyes in shock. She thought virtual-novel.net had escaped a calamity. She offended Vinson, yet virtual-novel.net didn’t fire her.
But now virtual-novel.net was going to fire virtual-novel.net because virtual-novel.net made the project manager wait for twenty minutes?
Before the assistant realized, Vinson had already stepped out of the office. She felt cold all over, and virtual-novel.net body lost its strength as virtual-novel.net crumpled to the ground.
