Chapter 55
“That’s why I told Miss Brown I didn’t mind the background. I will be your background in the future. I will defend you, and she should leave you alone.”
Luna was taken aback by his reaction. “Are you serious?”
“You can ask her if you don’t believe it.”
For some reason, her face flushed. “Well, then, she’s probably pissed.”
“I’m not responsible for that.”
She fixed her gaze on him. “There is one question in particular that piques my interest. May I inquire?”
“You may proceed.”
“Why do you like me when you have so many other women at your side? Is it because I’m poor and different from the other women? Or do you think I’m a wuss and you’re acting sympathetically? If this is correct, you may have misunderstood something. I’m not as unhappy as you believe. I simply enjoy money.”
“To that question, I have two replies. Which do you prefer to hear?”
“Is it true or false? You can then tell me both.”
“Both are correct, but there are two ways to state it. To put it politely, I talked a lot when I was with you. I’m looking for a woman who can open my heart and talk to me. To put it bluntly, I want to sleep with you.”
“Cough, cough,” she was taken aback by his direct response and covered her mouth to stop herself from coughing. “Do you still love me?”
Wills Waltson gave her a glance “Right now, I really admire you. However, there is still a slight distance between love and friendship. I shall make every attempt to fill the void.”
“Can you sleep with someone you don’t like?”
“It would be impossible if it was another woman. However, as I previously stated, I had a crush on you. So I’d like to sleep with you. Your flesh emits a therapeutic aroma to me.”
“Medicine scent?” She was curious as to where she obtained the medical aroma.
“Love elixir.”
She coughed once more.
She would have called the cops if he hadn’t been so attractive.
“Waltson, Wills I’ll tell you straight, I saw with my own eyes how my mother battled her entire life, so I won’t put my feelings in the hands of someone who doesn’t love me. I hope you can change your target away from me if at all possible; I don’t want to get wounded.”
Wills Waltson glanced at her, pursed his lips, and said: “How do you know you’ll be wounded if you don’t try? Maybe I’m worthy of your trust for the rest of my life.”
“However, I’m not right for you.”
“There is nothing absolute.”
But she was certain that they were not a good match.
Instead, she grabbed a nicely wrapped box from her bag, pushed it in front of him, and set it on the table.
“What exactly is this?” he asked.
To show my gratitude, I bought a gift for you yesterday. I know that you are not lacking in anything, and perhaps you will think that it is cheap, not worthy of your taste, but I will buy it anyway because I want to let my heart be at ease. If you want to throw it away, can you find a place after you leave that I cannot see?
Hearing her words, Wills Watson raised his eyebrows. A gift?
This was the first time in his life that he had received a gift from a woman.
He wanted to open the box.
Embarrassed, she stretched out her hand and pressed down on him. “Can’t you go back and look at it?”
Wills Watson raised his eyebrows. “So mysterious?”
“I just don’t want to see your look of disdain. I’ll be ashamed.”
He opened it anyway, and there was a dark blue pen in the box.
He took out the pen and saw that it was still engraved with words.
He raised his eyebrows. “You carved these words?”
“The sample of the character was written by me, but I was afraid that it wouldn’t be good to carve it, so I let someone help me carve it.”
He stared at the tiny words on it.
Wills Waltson , thank you. s
Seeing him size up the brush, she said rather embarrassedly, “Isn’t it a bit rustic?”
He didn’t say anything and just stuffed the pen into his shirt pocket and asked, “How is it?”
She pursed her lips into a smile. “I think it’s pretty good, but from your taste, it’s possible that …”
“That’s good,”Wills Watson said as he raised his eyebrows. “I’ll make good use of it.”
She was stunned for a moment, which meant, he accepted this gift?
It was odd, she thought, that he would turn his back on her.
On the morning of the second day, she showed up at Waltson’s Group on time.
Because she had promised Wills Watson in advance, they would pretend to not know each other in the company.
Therefore, no one knew that she was under the cover of Wills Waltson .
She was like a new employee, busy and busy with her studies.
What she was going to do was explain the new products to the staff in the business section.
The company recruited a total of four lecturers.
Each person was responsible for one product. She had the responsibility to explain the upgraded second-generation air purifier.
For the next week, she would do her homework and learn every detail, feature, and selling point of the product.
At noon, she received a call from Wills Waltson .
“Have you gotten off work?”
She looked outside from within teahouse and carefully whispered: “Not yet.”
“Why aren’t you getting off work?”
“Everyone is doing their homework.”
“You don’t need to do it. Come upstairs.”
“How can we do that? We’ll be seen by others.”
“I’m hungry.”
She thought about it and said, “How about that … I’ll put the lunch box at the front desk. Can you let your secretary go down to pick it up? ”
“It’s not like it’s a special agent.”
“Then what do we do? I can’t get away.”
“Then come find me after you’re done. I’m the only one in the entire penthouse, don’t worry.”
“But …Just now, our team leader said that he will take the four of us to eat lunch together. I can’t possibly say that I won’t be able to do that on the first day. ”Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Wills Watson was unhappy, who was that annoying?
“Then come find me after you finish eating.”
“But …”
“That settles it. Return to your work.” He hung up the phone once he finished speaking.
He connected to his internal network and dialed his secretary’s number. “Daniel, look into who is directing the Training Department’s impromptu lecturer and transfer him to another location for a business trip.”
The secretary was taken aback. “How about right now?”
“Get him out of the company right now, instantly, immediately, in five minutes.”
“Alright.”
“You can leave work after the call. Return at half past one.”
Daniel was perplexed after hanging up the phone. Mr. Waltson, when did you start caring about the Training Department? How unusual.
She entered the elevator half an hour later.
She exited the elevator on the 36th level and took a cautious look around.
There was no one around.
She strolled down the lengthy corridor till she came to the words “CEO’s office.”
She rapped on the door.
“Please come in.”
Wills Waltson’s voice was heard.
She pushed open the door and entered after exhaling a sigh of relief. “You scared me,” she murmured as she glanced at him.
“What the hell happened?”
“What? I’m concerned because I’m terrified of being seen by others. To avoid suspicion, I pressed first on the 35th floor. I came up because there was no one at the door.”
“What if someone comes to the door?”
“I just got off the elevator and stated that I walked in the incorrect direction.”
“Those who don’t know might think you’re having a secret affair with me if they see you like this.” He came closer to her and leaned behind her while he spoke. “Why don’t I make this matter real?” he said ambiguously.
