Chapter 29: Give me a chance
Shireen Miller was even more furious after seeing the assistant’s reaction, surely all these snobs have not put her in their eyes? But she forgot that these people under York Charlie’s hand were not under her control in the first place, it was York Charlie who paid their salary, of course they had to listen to York Charlie’s words!
“Something wrong with you?” York Charlie as if she did not see Shireen Miller is making a scene, still is not cold and indifferent attitude, “If something is wrong, say it quickly, if nothing is wrong, go out, I still have a regular meeting to open later.”
Shireen Miller didn’t say anything either, she just handed a newspaper to her first, her eyes contained aggression, seemingly pouting as she looked at him.
“What’s this?” York Charlie asked while taking the newspaper.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
“York, do you even see me as your fiancée anymore? How could you let websites and magazines write about you and Blanche Capra like this? What kind of position are you putting me in by doing this? Do you have any idea how embarrassed I would be if you did that. I’m not only embarrassed now, outsiders are laughing at me. It’s also hard on my heart, I …”
“I have never admitted that you are my fiancée, all along we have been in a cooperative relationship. Also just a co-operative relationship. If I have done before what let you misunderstand move then now I say clearly. Do you understand? You and I are just partners. We were, we are, and we’ll only be partners if we ever get involved again.”
York Charlie finally couldn’t help but interrupt Shireen Miller’s prattle on as he seemed to be having a hard time always being pestered by such a woman. Once upon a time, he had only thought of giving her some face for the fact that they had grown up together, but now he thought it would be better to talk to her sooner rather than later, so that she could break it off. But now it seems that it is better to make it clear to her earlier, so that she can break off this idea, and also avoid getting entangled with herself again in the future and make people misunderstand.
Shireen Miller has been forced to hold back the tears finally could not help but fall down, by York Charlie angry she finally mouth to choose words up: “Partnership? Was, is, and always will be? Is that what you told Brandi?”
Shireen Miller gave a rare sarcastic look to York Charlie, “You were a sister, you still are, and you’ll only be my sister if there’s a relationship in the future, isn’t that what you told Brandi back then?”
“You shut up! Don’t you dare mention her!” York Charlie’s eyes flashed with pain as soon as he heard the name ‘Brandi’. It was rare for him to have such a heavy tone in his voice.
But Shireen Miller was not at all frightened, and she smiled dementedly, and
“What, are you weak-minded?” When she got emotional, she even shouted, “It’s all you, you’re the one who killed Brandi!”
“Ah…” York Charlie suddenly had a seizure and grabbed Shireen Miller by the neck, his voice even colder than ever, “I told you not to mention her again. And Brandi’s not dead! She must not be dead! Do you understand me?”
Shireen Miller was genuinely shocked by York Charlie and forgot to even cry. She couldn’t speak with her neck choked. At this moment, she was afraid that York Charlie would really do something if her emotions were out of control, so she hurriedly nodded her head and signalled that she would definitely remember.
Only then did York Charlie let go and sat back in his chair, half speechless.
Shireen Miller is really frightened, at this time where still dare to splash around? She found an excuse and left York Charlie’s office in a mess.
The moment the office door closed, York Charlie leaned back in his swivel chair and closed his eyes.
Brandi, if Shireen Miller hadn’t mentioned the name today, she would have forgotten it. No, it was a subconscious desire not to remember. The years she’d disappeared the name had been in the back of her mind, lingering.
Yes, missing, not dead. York Charlie refused to believe in the matter of Brandi’s death. He preferred to believe that Brandi was just missing, even if it would be hard to find her again in this lifetime.
He then pondered over the reason why he had been a little obsessed with Blanche Capra lately: was it because Blanche Capra looked like Brandi?
Blanche Capra really did resemble Brandi at times: not to mention the fact that the two had somewhat similar names, and Blanche Capra’s occasional dark playfulness was also present in Brandi. And …
York Charlie couldn’t be bothered to work anymore, his thoughts drifting away …
Blanche Capra at this time, but looked at Lorcan George, who was blocking his doorway, annoyed.
“Lorcan, what the hell are you doing?” Blanche Capra felt that her patience was about to run out, she had already got up late today, and now if she rushed to the film set it might just be just enough not to be late, she couldn’t just be a small model taking a notice and letting all the other senior directors and what not wait for her alone, could she?
“Is it okay if you wait for me to come back for anything? I’m about to be late for work now.” Pressing down her anxiety, Blanche Capra discussed with Lorcan George in a nice voice.
But usually always good to talk to Lorcan George today is unusually difficult to compromise, he stubbornly want Blanche Capra to give him a statement, “No, you first say clearly before leaving. Tell me, what kind of position have you put me in. Where am I inferior to York Charlie, that you must be so entangled with him rather than give me a chance?”
Blanche Capra was so angry and anxious to hear this from him, and it turned out that she was still obsessed with the events of the other night. It was even still drilled into her.
“How are you any better than York Charlie? At least someone else is president now, but what about you?” Since that’s what he thinks of himself, he’ll just go along with it, Blanche Capra thought gamely.
Lorcan George, however, took her angry words seriously, and after listening to her words, he even looked as if he was “really like that”, and his face suddenly turned red, “Little sweetheart, I will work hard, and I will become an even more amazing president than York Charlie. I’m going to be even more amazing than York Charlie. I will do something great. Will you stop contacting York Charlie?”
Blanche Capra just saw the look on his face and gasped, let him think what he wants to think. Blanche Capra stopped explaining when she thought about it, plus she was about to be held up at the door for half an hour and didn’t really have time to explain.
“Then wait until you make something of yourself, I have to go to work.” Blanche Capra said and walked straight around Lorcan George towards the cell door.
“little sweetheart, just you wait and see, I’m going to work my arse off and outdo York Charlie!” Lorcan George looked at Blanche Capra’s back and clenched his fists fiercely, swearing in his heart.
Just thought of squeezing the bus, but now it seems that the only way not to be late is to take a taxi. Blanche Capra thought of this when she thought of the sky-high taxi fare, and then she blamed Lorcan George for being unprovoked today.
