âHey.â Lucija looked at the woman in front of her. âWhat are you doing here?â Eliza also laughed coldly.
âWhat about you?â âIâm an employee here.â Lucija chuckled. âEliza, you have no idea that Iâm an assistant in Valentineâs Group, right? I can see Beau at any time.â Eliza looked pensive. âAssistant?â
âThe kind that I met on the set, the assistant who carries an umbrella and shoes for the artists?â Lucijaâs face turned ghastly. âI donât blame you if you donât understand what assistant means. After all, youâre ignorant.â After that, she looked down at the thermos in Elizaâs hand. âYouâre here as a good wife to deliver food?â âUnfortunately, no matter how hard you try, you canât compete with Chasity!â Eliza smiled and asked, âWas Chasity very good?â i âOf course!â Lucija snorted coldly. Anyway, Chasity did not exist at all. She and Joye made it up. She could say whatever she wanted to say. Thinking of this, she sneered. âChasity was thousands of times better than you. Who do you think you are!â Eliza also sneered. âSince Chasity was thousands of times better than me, why did she be friends with someone like you?â Lucija did not react for a while. âWhat do you mean?â âWhat I mean isâ¦â Eliza curled her lips.
âI look down on you.â âDid you have fun putting on a show with Joye?â âI think you should have entered the entertainment circle since youâre such a good actress. Do you need me to introduce you to the director?â After that, she seemed to think of something else. âBy the way, I forgot, you canât be an actress.â âActress needs to have a beautiful appearance.â D After that, she stepped into the building.
Lucija stood where she was, staring at her back and stamping her feet fiercely.
When Eliza arrived at Beauâs office with the thermos, there was no one in the office. She caught Beauâs secretary at the door. The secretary smiled when she saw her. âHello, Mrs. Valentine.â Eliza was a little surprised. âYou know me?â âOf course!â
The secretary said with a smile, âOur president confessed to you at the press conference a few days ago. Can I not recognize you?â Eliza smiled in embarrassment. She felt even more guilty for Beau. He was so good to her, but she doubted him⦠âMrs. Valentine, are you looking for the president?â The secretary glanced at the thermos in Elizaâs hand. âThe president is still in a meeting. Do you want me to take you to the meeting room first?â Eliza wanted to refuse. But the secretary spoke again, âThe president will be very happy to see you bringing lunch for him after he comes out from the meeting!â
Eliza was silent for a moment. In order to see how happy Beau was, she decided to follow his secretary over. The meeting room was on the other side of the corridor. Through the enormous French window, Eliza could clearly see Beau listening to the report attentively. His eyes were indifferent, his gaze serious, and his ears slightly inclined. Beau was listening to the staffâs report seriously. Eliza felt a little warm in her heart. He was very different from the bossy CEO image she imagined. He was not the kind of person who would talk about money every day, nor was he the kind of person who bullied others because others were young and had no qualifications. His facial features were exquisite and solid, with a bit of manliness and domineering masculinity.
And his hand which was holding the folder⦠It was exactly the same as Eliza remembered.
It was rough and strong. It was not the white and tender hand in yesterdayâs video. Looking at his hands, Eliza couldnât help but laugh. She laughed at herself. She thought she knew Beau well enough. But it was not until she was cheated this time that she realized that she didnât know him well. And he had been trying his best to understand her. Graciana was right. She should indeed apologize to Beau. Of course, she also hoped that Beau would apologize to her. Or at the very least, she hoped that he could reflect on his mistakes. Since he didnât go to visit Chasity with Joye of Lucija, why didnât he ask her along? Did he still think that she was an outsider in his life! Just as Elizaâs thoughts began to run wild, she felt a burning gaze cast over her. Her brows furrowed, subconsciously looking in the direction of the line of sight. Through the huge French window, she could clearly see Beau in a meeting inside. His calm eyes were fixed on her as if he had something to say. When their eyes met, Eliza gave him an embarrassed smile and gestured for him to continue the meeting. Then, she turned around and continued to wait outside with the thermos in her arms.
The atmosphere in the meeting room became subtle. The president, who had been serious, smiled. All the people in the meeting were shocked. Everyone subconsciously looked outside. Outside the door, the extremely beautiful woman was sitting on a bench outside with a thermos in her arms. She sat up straight, like a student waiting to sit for an examination. The people in the conference room looked at each other. They actually knew this woman. That was because two days ago, their president, Beau, who had always been so cold and stern in front of them, had taken the initiative to hold a press conference.
He had acknowledged in front of everyone that he liked her so much that he had even turned her into an obedient wife who listens to her husband. The people in the group had been gossi[ing about this.
Everyone looked at each other. The staff who was reporting also sped up. He summarized everything.
Five minutes later, the meeting was over. Eliza quickly stood up. The door of the meeting room opened.
The first employee who came out greeted Eliza warmly right away. âNice to meet you, Mrs. President!â
Mrs. President⦠Eliza was still unable to adapt to this name. She smiled awkwardly. âHelloâ Although she did not know them, she felt that their smiles were sincere. So she seriously greeted everyone and said goodbye to them. Soon, Beau was the only one left in the meeting room. When the corridor became quiet again, Eliza instinctively turned around and looked into the conference room. At this moment, Beau in the conference room was looking at her. Resting his chin on one hand, he sat in his chair with a chuckle. His gaze made Elizaâs face involuntarily flush red. She pursed her lips and was about to walk in with the thermos when Beau inside stood up. He strode to her and chuckled. âWhy did you suddenly have time to bring me lunch?â Eliza pursed her lips. âI came to apologize to you.â
