Chapter 227
"What?" Lisa was obviously stunned. And she added, "Why? Won't I be fired?"
The woman standing at the door smiled and said, "If you want to be expelled, how come you called your boyfriend here?"
"My boyfriend?!"
"Her boyfriend?"
Lisa and I said at the same time.
Lisa's face was full of weirdness. And she added, "When did I have a boyfriend?"
The woman at the door had a strange look on her face, saying, "Didn't you have? He is right in the leader's office. Your boyfriend is so articulate. With a few words from him, the client directly withdrew her complaint."
Hearing this, Lisa rushed out of the meeting room with a puzzled look on her face.
I followed her and saw her entering an office. So I stood behind her.
Lisa went into the office without closing the door. I saw that unexpectedly, it was no one else but Roger in the room!
Roger on the sofa with his legs crossed.
When he saw Lisa, he narrowed his flirtatious eyes and asked dotingly, "Honey, are you here?"
"Don't call me honey." Lisa threw the bag in her hands at him and said to her leader, "He's not my boyfriend."
"I'm sorry. We've had a quarrel recently."
Roger said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Lisa's leader suddenly came to a realization, saying, "Oh, then you guys should settle it by yourselves."
"Yes," said Roger. Then he stood up and tried to put his arms around Lisa's waist, only to be shaken off by Lisa violently.
But Lisa, who wasn't stupid either, knew that she couldn't make trouble in her leader's office.
Although she couldn't be more reluctant, she came out with Roger.
After coming out of the office, Lisa looked at him and said unhappily, "Who asked you to help me?"
"I saw that you were in trouble. So I came here on purpose." Roger felt wronged as he said, "I helped you solve this problem perfectly. How can you blame me?"
"Solved it perfectly? Is your pretending to be my boyfriend a perfect solution?"
Lisa scolded him.
Roger nodded, "That's right. I think it is sort of a perfect solution."
Lisa, who didn't want to bother with Roger, pulled me and walked away.
Roger followed her and said, "Lisa, I should be blamed for what happened that day. I didn't expect that I would take your virginity away. If I had known it, I should have been gentler. I..."
"Bang!"
Before Roger could finish his words, Lisa turned her head and raised her hands.
She slapped right on Roger's face.
Lisa looked at him as her eyes turned red with anger. She said, "Should you have been gentler? Let me tell you, Roger Lance, you and I aren't from the same world. Neither I and the women around you are the same! Forget about it. Let bygones be bygones! I beg you, never should you appear in my life again! You and your brother, a scumbag, should let us go!"
"I'm sorry."
"Are you sorry?! If I can travel back and go back to the days before that day, I'll forgive you. Otherwise, no more talks!"
Lisa's words made her position quite clear.
Never should she travel back to the old days. And she would never forgive Roger.
Lisa pulled me and went downstairs.
Roger kept following us and said kindly, "Lisa, it's my fault. I am sincere to you. I've told my family that I have a girl who I truly love on my mind. As long as you promise me, I'll marry you."
"Hehe." Lisa turned her head, "Marry me? What right do you have to marry me?"
"I've said that I'll be responsible for you," Roger said quickly.
"Will you be responsible for me?" Lisa heard his words and laughed out loud directly as she pointed at the crotch of his pants, "I'm sorry. I think you're dirty."
The look on Roger's face couldn't be more uglier.
However, he was still chasing after Lisa.
Lisa's car was parked downstairs. She pressed the key and opened the car door. When she opened the car door and intended to get on the car, Roger rushed over and held the car door. Then he said with a serious look, "Lisa, I'm sincere to you. I can't change what happened in the past. For what will happen in the future, as long as you give your order, I'll do as you say."
I looked at Roger.
I felt that he seemed to be indeed serious.
But how much longer could he be serious?
Having getting along with Patrick, I indeed dared not to make any decisions for Lisa.
However, Lisa's was quite determined.
Standing straight, she didn't rush to close the car door. Then she looked up and down at Roger and put on a standard smile, "Mr. Roger, if you want to chase me, there's a prerequisite."
"What is it?"
"Don't touch any women for two years. Only then will I take into my consideration."
After Lisa finished her words, Roger was stunned for a moment.
Even so, he agreed soon, "I promise you. I won't touch any women in two years."
Lisa, who wasn't surprised by his reply at all, said, "It's up to you. After all, I can't supervise you."
After that, she pushed Roger away, closed the car door, and left.
On the way back home, I felt that Lisa didn't seem to be in a bad mood anymore.
Lisa continued to go to work as well the day after tomorrow.
Before getting on a plane, she texted me in the lounge.
Only after that was I relieved.
I moved back to Unit No.1, City Y. And I got into contact with Shelton more and more frequently.
Even so, I began to pay attention to the recruitment information in other cities.
One of the employers requested to do an interview with me.
After I traveled thousands of miles and arrived there by plane, the interviewer asked me, "Why do you wear a mask?"
I told him the truth.
But he asked me to take off my mask.
After I took off the mask, the interviewer frowned slightly and said, "I'm sorry, our company can't take you in."
To be honest, I had been used to the fact that I wouldn't be accepted. However, it was the first time that I had ever met someone who rejected me right on the spot.
I felt quite upset in my heart.
After I went back to City Y, I told Shelton about what had happened.
He listened to me quietly and patted me on the head, "You should go to do other interviews after your face looks better. I will support you this year. Although I don't earn much, I can afford to support you."
"Thank you."
I didn't need Shelton to raise me.
But his words delighted me quite much.
In a blink of an eye, it was January, 13th.
Based on the information stated on the invitation card, the ones who would attend Patrick's wedding could go to the airport near Patrick's island one after another on Jan, 14th. Patrick had arranged many yachts there with which guests attending his wedding could go to his island.
In the evening, I sat in front of a writing desk.
I took out a pen and paper.
Upon deliberation, I hadn't written anything with a pen for a long time. I used to write something on my computer or my cell phone.
Writing a letter had become a matter of the last century.
I looked at the paper in front of me, thinking about how to narrate that story in words.
At first, I narrated a quite, quite long story.
However, in the middle of it, I found myself ridiculous.
What would I expect by writing such long lines?
I couldn't expect anything more.
After thinking about it over and over again, I finally wrote a line of words on the paper... This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Sixteen years ago, I saved a boy on a construction site near an orphanage.
After that day, I fell for him.
I thought you were him. But now I know that you aren't him.
The boy who grabbed the corner of my clothes when he passed by me smiled more brightly than you do.
Moreover, he won't deceive me."
When I finished writing, I folded the letter neatly and put it into the red packet with twenty thousand dollars' gift money.
I stuffed the red packet with all my might.
After that, I wrote down my name on the back of the red packet, "Charlotte Archer."
