Jolene clearly didnât think so.
But she just said that.
She knew which words would irritate Bowen.
Which words could make Bowen feel disgusted.
When she was his assistant before, she had never been so bold.
However, Bowen is not so easily angry.
He looked at her for a moment, and suddenly smiled: âIâm not your boss now, and you treat me like this?â
Jolene turned her face out of the car.
The rain stopped, I donât know when it stopped, and the outside world was washed clean.
Jolene took a deep breath and suddenly felt tired, tired from the bottom of her heart.
The car drove to the door of Joleneâs house, and Jolene said to Bowen, âJust drop me off here.â
The driver observed Bowenâs face in the rearview mirror, and he said lightly, âStop!â
The driver pulled over and slowly stopped.
Jolene got out of the car, Bowen got out of the car and 0.00%
handed Jolene his phone.
She took it and said thank you.
Just as she was about to turn around, she remembered something.
17 She wasnât going to complain, but when she bumped into Bowen, she didnât hold back.
âBowen, please go back and tell Miss Gellar, please stop treating me as an imaginary enemy.â
âWhat did she do to you again?â
âMy mom suddenly found out that Frank was sick. A strange woman called her. I guess it was either Sophie or Viona.
âI see.â Bowenâs voice floated in the wet air.
Canât hear emotions.
Jolene nodded. âThank you.â
She turned and hurried into the neighborhood.
Bowen stood by the side of the car and watched her back disappear into the gate of the community.
At this time, the phone he put in the car rang.
He ignored it, and at this time he knew who was calling.
Back at the Evert Family, Viona was still waiting for him in the living room.
As soon as she heard the door, she immediately trotted all the 25 13%
way from the living room, picked up the slippers in the shoe cabinet and put them at Bowenâs feet.
âI left soup for you, the mussel winter melon soup you like.â
âThank you.â Bowen changed into his slippers and walked inside: âDonât wait for me next time, we wonât share a room.â
Viona followed behind Bowen. He walked too fast, and Viona quickened her pace to catch up: âBowen, donât you want soup?â
âNo, thank you.â
Bowen hurried upstairs, and soon he disappeared down the spiral staircase.
Viona tilted her head back until she could no longer see him, then returned to the kitchen to take out the soup and put it in the fridge.
Then she poured a glass of milk and took it to Bowenâs room.
Bowen was in the shower, and she sat quietly on the sofa waiting for him.
When Bowen came out of the bathroom and saw her, he even frowned imperceptibly.
He turned around and saw the milk on the bedside table, and said lightly, âThank you, but I donât drink milk before going to bed. I donât need it next time.â
Bowen was always cold, light, and polite to her.
To say it well is to respect each other as guests, to say it badly is cold violence.
Viona is still smiling, like a robot that never gets angry.
No matter how cold Bowen was to her, she was poised.
âSince itâs all poured, letâs drink it.â She walked over and picked up the milk cup and handed it to Bowen: âDrink some milk to nourish your stomach. Have you been drinking at night?â
Bowen didnât pick up her milk cup, just looked at her warm smile.
He almost forgot that he really had something to say to her.
âJolene is not your rival, Miss Gellar. You have crossed the line.â
