Chapter 82

Well, since he wasn’t seriously injured, there was no need for me to stay.

After signing all the forms and going through all the procedures, I handed all the things to Marcus. Mario had already entered the operation room.

Marcus was displeased, “Clara, what do you mean?”

“Isn’t this clear enough?” I raised my eyebrows, “I’ve done everything that I’m required to do here. I don’t see the need of me staying here any longer.”

“Is this how you are being a wife?” Marcus sneered, “Your husband is still lying on the hospital bed and as his wife, all you can think about is how to get far away from him?”

I was actually amused and glanced at the Olivia who looked terrible, “I really don’t know how other people’s wife would deal with this sort of situation if their husband got into the car accident with his lover, but to me, I was already kind enough not to stall his operation time. Honestly, I probably wouldn’t sign the form if it weren’t for the baby in my belly.”

“Clara, you vile bitch!” Olivia jumped in before Marcus even got to answer.

I nodded and looked at her sinister face, “Right, I’m quite cruel, but not snaky enough. I should have prayed that this car accident could kill you two love birds.”

“Clara, do you have heart?” Marcus couldn’t stand me cursing his loved one.

“No!” It was really a waste of time to argue with them here. I glanced at the operation room and just left.

It was about three o’clock when I went back to the company. Carrying all the AC audit files in, Jackie asked, “Director Clara, I’ve revised all the AC audit documents. President George isn’t in the office currently, so should you sign them?”

I looked at her and was silent for a while. Scared by my staring, she was flustered and asked, “Um, I’m afraid that these files might stall the work time, so...”

“Is Steven your boyfriend?” I asked in a cold tone.

She paused and instantly looked pale, “Director Clara, I...”

“Is he working in AC?” I continued and was staring at her sharply.

Holding all the files, her hands started shaking but kept silent.

After gazing at her for a while, I let out a sigh, “Jackie, I really think that I’m quite sweet to you and I’m always thinking about how to get the best deal for you in the company at all times.”

I didn’t finish all my words and just added, “The auditing of the George Group is a huge project for both of the companies. AC would have a lot of troubles if there is something wrong.”

“Director Clara, I...”

I directly continued, “Go back and send all these auditing files to the president’s office till you are 100% sure that there aren’t any problems in them.

Tell AC that if they want to maintain a long-term cooperation, they’d better be sincere. But of course, this whole matter would be much simpler if it’s between you and the AC. Deal with the problems yourself. You wouldn’t want to let this matter escalate to the point that the leaders of the two companies have to sit down and negotiate.”

Then I just asked her to leave. I was not a fool, but I’d never learned any auditing before. Dennis had already discovered the loophole, but instead of blaming me, he went to Marcus who was clearly related to this matter. It was quite normal to frame each other in the business world. Moreover, Marcus always hated me and it wasn’t hard for him to rig the process and got rid of me.

Jackie worked for me and handled most of my work. It would only be a matter of time for me to leave the company if she started having other selfish motives.

I actually knew her quite well and was aware that it was not easy to bribe her except for the love thing.

It was an accident to meet Steven that day, but it wasn’t difficult to figure out the whole thing after connecting all the dots and testing Jackie.”

Since I was quite distressed and didn’t have much work to do, I just gathered my things and was about to get off work.

Before I can even leave the office door, Luis showed up in a pretty formal suit and looked at me with his hands folded, “Let’s get the dinner together!”

I frowned, “I don’t want to go.”

“The hot pot!” He walked in and grabbed my car key, “My car is too flashy. Let’s keep it low-key and take your car.”

I rolled my eyes at him, “Where?”

He beamed, “Just follow me.”

I didn’t want to go at first, but when I thought about Dennis and Olivia, I got agitated and having the dinner didn’t seem to be a bad option.

I really didn’t expect that Luis would take me to such a low-key place. He drove the car into a deep alley which looked quite ancient.

Please Love Me, Mr. George Chapter 81 Let’s Wait And See The grey wall was covered with phoenix flower which looked exceptionally stunning against the setting sun.

After a while, he pulled over the car and looked at me, “The alley ahead is quite narrow and can only fit two people. Let’s get out of the car and walk there.”

Just like he said, the alley was getting narrower and the phoenix flower looked beyond brilliant.

“This place is quite secluded. How did you get to know this place?” I had never been to this place having spent all these years here.

This alley looked quite aged.

Hands in his pocket, he looked quite relaxed, “I learned this by accident a few years ago. This alley was built in the People’s Republic period. Newton Town is originally a water county and most of its buildings are white and grey tiled. Such a tranquil and deep valley is rare in the southern China.”

I nodded and agreed that this alley was more like a northern building.

He glanced at me and continued, “This alley was built by a commander in chief as a present to his wife and is 1314 meters lone and 520 centimeters wide. A lot of couples like to stroll in this place.”

“It sounds pretty romantic.” Watching the flowers climbing up the walls, I noticed that the Phoenix flower slowly turned to roses which were pruned gorgeously and turned out to be eye-catching.

This would be a great spot to unwind.

He shrugged, “Of course.”

Back in the college, me and Diana promised each other that we would work hard and save a bunch to travel all over the world. I’d like to see this vast world and feel the fabrics of the society.

But after the graduation, we just gradually forgot this dream and wallowed ourselves in surviving and went against our original aspiration.

“Clara!” Luis suddenly called my name. I came to myself and turned to him.
