Chapter 258
Chapter 258 Matthew Is A Jerk
Elizabeth fell to the ground with her knees hitting the floor first after hearing Matthew’s statement.
Despite this, she was afraid of Matthew noticing her embarrassing state, so she didn’t dare to comment on it.
While enduring the pain, she quickly got up and dashed into the lounge She even locked the door behind her.
Matthew did notice her falling to the ground, but he was wise enough to know not to help her.
Matthew’s mood seemed to have improved. The smirk on his face even gradually became eviler as he studied his right
index and middle fingers
He then pressed a button on his landline phone and instructed, “Esme, I
I want you in
here.’
The moment Esme heard his boss’ instructions, the idea of resigning popped into his mind. He would love to run away
from the office right away.
However, since he wasn’t daring enough, he could only bite the bullet and head to Matthew’s office.
By the CEO’s office entrance, he bumped into Gracie.
Upon noticing his condition, Gracie smiled and asked, “Mr. Mack, what have you done? You look awful.”
Although one of them was a chief secretary while the other was an assistant, their status in the company was almost the
same, and they loved to poke fun at each other whenever they met.
Esme briefly glanced at her and asked frustratedly, “Where were you just now?”
Gracie’s smile froze when she heard that. She was at the store buying female underwear for her boss just now. Matthew
even asked to purchase the sexiest one for him.
Since it was a task given by her boss, she decided that she should remain silent about it. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Esme scoffed after receiving no reply. “Do you know what I have done? Please remember to knock on the door before you head inside the CEO’s office next time, and do not confidently open the door when you have not received any answer from the
boss
He made such a statement because he would soon suffer from the consequence of his confidence. Just now, Matthew didn’t answer the knock, which was what he always did
Thus, Esme didn’t expect to witness such a passionate scene upon entering
He heaved a long sigh and knocked on the door
“Come in.”
This time Esme only dared to push the door open after hearing Matthew’s cold voice.
Man wow is Adderk
He then approached Matthew’s desk and stood before Matthew with his head lowered, looking, just like a student who had done something wrong
I’m sorry, Mr Hilton
He felt Matthew wouldn’t
mad at the former if he apologized to
On the other hand, Matthew merely tapped the table with his fingers with an unfathomable gaze
He then ordered coldly. “I want you to arrange a meeting with Dominic to talk about the land in the eastern district.
Esme’s eyes lit up when he heard that So, he didn’t ask me to come in to scold me?
“Okay, Mr Hilton I’ll do it now
Making meeting arrangements was originally Elizabeth’s work, and Esme figured that Matthew was clear of Dominic’s
intention toward Elizabeth based on the order given
When Esme returned to the office earlier, he overheard a few secretaries discussing the bouquet in Elizabeth’s arms and that Dominic had personally walked her back to the company.
From the looks of it, Matthew must have heard about those things too.
There was no doubt that a war might happen between the two love rivals when they were to meet later that night.
After Elizabeth had changed her underwear and exited the lounge, she stuffed the wet one she wore earlier into her bag as she didn’t want to look at it anymore.
As she couldn’t throw it into the lounge’s trash can, she could only keep it in her bag and dump it after leaving work.
Then, Elizabeth lowered her head and started to concentrate on her work. She didn’t even dare to take a peek at Matthew
for the rest of the day
Knowing how embarrassed she was, Matthew suppressed his urge for coffee and didn’t even have a sip of coffee for the
entire evening
When it was finally time to leave work, Elizabeth could no longer hold back her urge to look at him
“Mr Hilton, can I leave now?”
It’s already half past six Why isn’t this man planning to leave yet? I should have left work half an hour ago. If he no longer needs my service, I prefer to go home and accompany my three babies
As Matthew was still busy with work, he casually replied, “You can get off work now!”
Elizabeth’s eyes sparkled when she heard that, and she started to pack her things gleefully. Soon, she was ready to escape the office with her bag
Suddenly, Matthew turned his attention to her and swept his gaze across her lips.
“Take this with you.
Elizabeth saw a tube of ointment on the table and grabbed it confusedly. Where should I apply this? I don’t have any injuries on me.
She blinked and pondered for a moment. At that point, she really wanted to ask Matthew about it but didn’t dare to.
Matthew raised his hand to rub his nose and said, “You have cuts on your lips. You will recover faster with the ointment.”
Elizabeth’s face blushed instantly. Why does he have to remind me of everything that had happened in the office again? She pursed her lips, turned around, and dashed out of the office.
