Chapter 734: Chapter 736

“The sea breeze is so strong, stop crying, it will destroy your face!” Marley said.

“I’m alright!” She shook her head and wiped her tears swiftly. “I’m really alright!”

Actually, she was just touched by his concern, that was all!

She didn’t feel anything after Sadie had hit her! She was already used to it. She sobbed for a little while, and finally calmed down.

She looked at Marley. “Marley?”

“Yes?” He looked at her too.

“Can you give me a hug?”

Marley was stunned for a second.

He then laughed, opened up his arms, and hugged her slender body, his arms tight around her.

His hug was very warm, so warm that it made her very nostalgic.

She quietly reached out her arms and placed them on his back. She suddenly felt her heart contract, that feeling spread to her arms and limbs, and her hands and feet were trembling. She rested her head on his shoulder, and smelt the tobacco on his body. At the moment she closed her eyes, her tears slid down.

She loved Marley!

Yes!

She had loved him since she was seventeen years old when she first met him!

But, this love, had been so tough and so difficult to comprehend. Now that he was being so nice to her, she was even more afraid, afraid that everything was just a dream, and once she woke up, everything would be gone!

A few minutes later, she said softly, “Let’s go to work! There’re still a lot of things to be done!”

After that, Marley took her back to the company.

Her hair was down today, her long hair covered the red fingerprint on her face, so no one noticed that she had been hit.

As for what happened yesterday, she apologized to Aila.

Once she reached the office, at the secretary desk, in front of Marley, Tyler, and a few other secretaries, Sylvie walked over to Aila, “Aila, it was me who took the wrong USB yesterday, I’m sorry!”

Tyler was stunned for a second, then his face showed appreciation, he exchanged a quiet glance with Marley. It required a lot of strength for her to publicly admit her wrongdoings. Many people tried their best to cover it up when they realized they had made a mistake. She on the other hand was great, daring to apologize openly.

Marley stood at the side, watching her apologize. He then heard Sylvie say, “It was me who wasn’t careful yesterday, I will accept the CEO’s punishment, I’m sorry! I’m sorry for bringing trouble to everyone!”

Aila was slightly surprised in the beginning, she didn’t say anything after that, but turned to look at Marley.

As for Marley, he didn’t even take a look at her, but his gaze towards Sylvie was now filled with praise. Aila lowered her head, bit her lips, her gaze was dim.

“Sylvie, your mistake was indeed very naive, you will definitely be punished, I’ll think about it and let you know!” Marley instructed simply and left for the CEO room.

Sylvie also returned to her seat.

Even if Aila still had any dissatisfaction, she couldn’t do anything anymore, as the CEO had given his instructions.

In the end-of-week meeting in the afternoon, Marley got Sylvie to take down the meeting minutes.

As for Sadie’s matter, he had also made a phone call to get the lawyers to tend to it.

In the meeting, Tyler started with reporting the progress of the project, and gave his opinion, “Regarding the Lever construction project, we should quickly finish it up, and get back our funds as soon as possible. In the short term we should quickly finish up the few construction projects that are almost at their ends, then reposition ourselves! Previously a lot of our projects were still ongoing, resulting in our cash flow being slow. This caused liquidity problems that almost resulted in a huge problem...”

The few department heads were pensive, all wary and careful. Nobody offered any opinion.

Marley’s gaze swept towards the manager of the construction department. “Edwards, within half a month, the Lever Plaza project should be finished, right?”

“Maybe!”

“Edwards, I need an accurate answer!” Marley said deeply, his gaze sharp and intense.

Edwards nodded his head quickly. “Yes! Finishing works in two weeks!”

“Alright then! Finish up quickly. Edwards, let Mr. Cooper help you with the finishing works! The final checks are very important, I hope everyone doesn’t take that lightly!”

“Yes!” After Marley finished his words, everyone agreed to it.

His attention shifted slightly to Sylvie who was seated not far away, her head was buried in her laptop, typing quickly and recording everything. From this angle, he could see her beautiful neckline, her fair skin was a natural beauty, enough to attract any guy. Everyone was also turning to look at Sylvie once in a while. Seeing all these old men’s gaze on Sylvie, Marley suddenly felt like hiding Sylvie up.

“Purchasing department’s performance has been good recently, keep it up.” Marley suddenly gave a smile. That smile sent chills down people’s spines – he was obviously praising the purchasing department, but it gave them some sort of creepy feelings.

“Alright!” While the purchasing department manager was nodding his head, a cold sweat also broke out from him.

“Dismissed!” A light shone from Marley’s handsome face, and he said with a deep voice, “Thanks for the hard work everyone!”

“Not at all!”

When everyone had left, and the meeting room was left with Marley, Tyler, and Sylvie, Tyler said, “I’ll leave first!”

“Okay!” Marley nodded slightly.

At this moment, at the doorway, Aila ran over and knocked on the door.

Marley and Sylvie turned to look at her at the same time.

“CEO, Mr. Ernie is here!”

“Ernie?” Marley raised his eyebrows.

“Yeah!”

“Get him to come to the meeting room!”

“Alright!”

Sylvie looked at Marley, he also looked at her.

“I’ll leave first!” Sylvie wasn’t willing to see Ernie, that man was too scary, his actions were too frivolous, it was impossible to see through him.

“Okay, go wait for me in my room!” He instructed in a deep voice.

“Oh alright!” Sylvie picked up her laptop and left.

She was puzzled, what was the reason Ernie came today?

Tyler was very calm, walking out of the meeting room together with her.

Sylvie entered the CEO room right away.

Aila was bringing Ernie and heading towards the meeting room, but he asked, “Where is Sylvie?”

Aila was stunned for a moment, and said, “Sylvie just entered the CEO room!”

“Oh really? Then I’ll go to the CEO room too, get your CEO to come to see me at the CEO room!” Ernie said and walked towards the CEO room.

“Mr. Ernie!” Aila called anxiously. “CEO is waiting for you in the meeting room!”

“Just get him to go back to the CEO room!” Ernie didn’t care at all and strode towards the CEO room.

Aila couldn’t prevent him, so she didn’t stop him anymore. She walked towards the meeting room, her pace was slow, as if thinking of something, but also as if she was intentionally slowing down her steps.

Sylvie was arranging the minutes, and the door was pushed open. She raised her head from her laptop and saw Ernie’s evil and handsome face that was half-smiling. Her heart was anxious, but she continued looking at him calmly. “Mr. Ernie, CEO is waiting for you in the meeting room, I think you’re at the wrong place.”

“Aha! Who said I came to the wrong place!” Ernie said while walking towards Marley’s CEO chair. He sat on it, and leaned lazily onto the back of the chair, crossing his legs. “Yeah! This seat indeed feels very good!”

Sylvie looked at him and snorted softly.

“Why? Do I not deserve to sit here?” Ernie raised his eyebrows.

“What do you think?” Sylvie shot back. She lowered her head to look at her laptop. Talking to this person, she always felt a heavy pressure that she had never felt before. She didn’t want to continue talking to Ernie, so she buried her head in the laptop.

“Maybe I can try this position, what do you think?” Ernie continued joking around.

“When CEO left Hughes Group for three years, you didn’t even get to sit on that chair. Now you are talking about this, don’t you find it funny?” Sylvie questioned him back.

“I didn’t feel like sitting on it during that three years, but now I suddenly feel like doing so!”

“Really?” Sylvie didn’t believe it. “Then you go tell CEO yourself. I’m sorry, I don’t have time to chat with you!”

“But I like chatting with you!”

“I don’t doubt that Mr. Ernie likes to do things against my wishes!”

“Just like last time when I kissed you?” Ernie said while standing up, and walked over. “Why? Was that enough for you to think about it often?”

Sylvie was stunned, she quickly stood up, picked up her laptop, and walked out, “Mr. Ernie, you can stay here, I’m very busy!”

She wanted to escape this place quickly, this person was really scary!

“Why? Want to escape?” Ernie walked over in big steps and grabbed Sylvie’s wrist. “I still want to taste you!”

“Pervert!” Sylvie exclaimed softly.

The CEO room’s door was open, her voice was heard by Maisy and Daria.

“Hey? What happened to your face? Who hit you?” Ernie suddenly exclaimed. “Did Marley hit you? My God! This slap is so heavy! I’ve already said, it’s better to be with me, if you are with me, I wouldn’t hit you!”

“Let go!” Sylvie was suddenly shocked, Ernie’s eyes were sharp, and had seen the fingerprint on her face. She felt extremely unhappy to have let him catch that. “Please respect yourself!”

“I don’t want to respect myself!” Ernie yelled. His eyes narrowed, “Tell me, who hit you?”

Both of them were tugging around at the doorway, Maisy and Daria’s gaze occasionally flitted over to Sylvie. Sylvie also noticed their attention and lowered her head awkwardly. She later lifted her head. “Maisy, go get CEO!”

“Oh alright!” Maisy hurried over to get him.

Hearing her words, Ernie suddenly gave a strange smile, and let go of her. He then stood a meter apart from her and looked smilingly at her. “Look at your anxious face, I’m just looking at what happened to your face! Do you have to be so petty? I didn’t even do anything to you!”

Finishing his words, he went back to the CEO chair and sat down.

When Maisy reached the meeting room, Aila was just entering the room. Maisy didn’t care about anything else, and shouted immediately, “CEO, Mr.

Ernie was pulling at Sylvie’s arm, Sylvie couldn’t get away from him, and asked me to come to get you, quick go take a look!”

Before she had even finished, Marley stood up with a thud and walked out in large strides.

When he had walked to the CEO room quickly, Sylvie was holding her laptop and standing by the door. He looked at her with a concerned expression, she shook her head, and said softly, “I’ll go back to work!”

Marley nodded his head, his face downcast. He walked into the CEO room, and slammed the door, blocking everyone’s view.

Maisy stuck out her tongue, and asked Sylvie softly, “Are you alright?”

“I’m alright, thank you!” Sylvie smiled.

“My God! This Mr. Ernie is too much!” Maisy exclaimed.

Sylvie was silent, not knowing what to say.

In the CEO room, Ernie purposedly ignored Marley’s dark face, and said with a smile, “Marley, your seat is not bad, how about you let me sit on it?”

Marley glared fiercely at Ernie who was smiling annoyingly, having a great desire to smash him.

“Why? I can’t? Then forget about it! What look is that? It’s as if I had taken your position, don’t worry, I won’t take it! If I want to, I would take your woman!” Ernie said while laughing strangely. His laugh was extremely provocative.

Marley narrowed his eyes slightly, his face unreadable, and asked nonchalantly, “How do you intend to take her from me?”

“Hehe, take a guess!”

Marley frowned, suddenly at a loss for words—

A Moment in Destiny Chapter 735 At a Loss for Words The convenient Bride Chapter 414: There Is Nothing Happier Than This (Ending)

Predestined Marriage Chapter 1718: The End After that, Marley paused, the atmosphere around them had frozen. He suddenly burst out laughing, but his expression was as cold as frost, “There’s no use taking things that do not belong to you, what matters is the other person’s willingness!”
