Chapter 42 Self-sentimental
"Am I pretty?" Joanna kept her eyes on Wilson's face for too long.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Realizing her gaffe, Joanna immediately looked away. Embarrassed, she kept staring at him.
He drove slowly, but it's not too far away, so they arrived at the Joanna's house soon.
"Here we are. Get off." Wilson said emotionlessly.
"Well... Thank you for Sending me back. " Without him, she didn't know how to get home.
"Don't think too much. If anything happens to you in the company, it will only do harm to the company's reputation. I am doing this for the company. " Wilson said words against his will without a blink.
"I know, but thank you." Then she opened the door and got off.
'Sure enough, I have being sentimental. I thought you cared about me, although you didn't mean anything else.
I am so stupid.'
Wilson didn't leave until he saw the light in Joanna's room was on.
He lit a cigarette, rolled down the window, and let the wind blow the smoke away. The air at night was still a bit cold, and with the night breeze, Wilson tried to make himself clear of his thoughts.
'Was this right or wrong for Joanna?'
Joanna had been working with great care. On one hand, she didn't want others to have any prejudice against her. On the other hand, she didn't want to make any mistake so that Wilson would find an excuse to fire her.
After that night, Joanna kept herself away from Wilson. If she needed him to confirm the documents, she would ask others for help as much as possible, but she didn't want to ask for help all the time.
Looking at the document in her hand, finally, she knocked on the door of Wilson's office.
"Mr. Wilson, this document needs your signature." Joanna lowered her head and didn't look at him.
Wilson checked the file quickly and signed his name when he was going to give it back to her.
"Miss. Joanna, are you really hiding from me lately?" Wilson raised his eyebrows. He of course had sensed the actions of Joanna recently, but there was no time to question her. Now she came herself.
"Well... Not at all." Joanna denied. A flicker of light flashed in her eyes. Was it so obvious to her that even a busy man like Wilson had noticed her?
"Then why haven't I seen you for several days?" Wilson didn't intend to let her go. He insisted on getting to the bottom of the matter.
"Recently... I have something to do. "
"Really?" Wilson delivered the document to Joanna. Just when she was going to take the document away, he continued, "I hope you will appear in front of me every day in the future, otherwise... I will think that you have skip work. "
"……" Joanna's face twitched as she thought, 'It's too unpredictable!' RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Then I can't ask others for help. '.
Joanna had greeted Wilson secretly several times. She just wanted to look at him from a distance
She really wanted to resign now.
But Joanna kept telling herself that she couldn't do anything that would make others look down upon her or fail to live up to Rita's kindness.
At half past eight in the evening, Joanna stood at the door of "Leave", pulling a long face.
In fact, Rita wanted to go out with Joanna. And Joanna thought that it would be a good time to relax, so she agreed.
However, It was a bar.
It was the first time that she had come to a bar. She was both curious and perturbed.
"Rita, I'm at the door. Where are you?" Waiting at the door for a long time, she did not see Rita, so she had to take out her phone and called her.
"Have you arrived? I'll be out soon. Wait for me there. " It was too noisy and chaotic on the other end of the line.
Before long, Rita walked out of the 'Leave'. When Joanna saw her clothes, she was so surprised that her eyes almost popped out.
This tight dress was so short. Rita had a delicate makeup on her face and her face was a little red. Therefore, Joanna guessed that she must have been drunk.
"Don't you feel cold? Why are you dressing like this? " She surveyed Belinda from head to toe.
Although it was not winter now, it was a little cold. The suit Rita wore must be the equipment for summer.
"Why are you here in such a formal dress?" Rita looked at Joanna with a disgusted face. Look at what she was wearing, a guard dress, a pair of jeans and a pair of flat shoes.
Oh my God! Is she here to apply for a primary school teacher?
"What's wrong with me?" Joanna looked at her cloths, is it strange? Didn't she usually wear like this?
"Forget it, let's get inside." Rita said, rolling her eyes. She didn't insist because she realized Joanna had never been to such an occasion before.
As soon as they entered the bar, Joanna was shocked by the scene inside.
The music was deafening, and the air was reeking of alcohol. The turbid air made Joanna slightly vomit. Rita held Joanna's hand and led her to the VIP room through the crowd.
Joanna was pulled by Rita, but her thoughts were flying away.
Rita pushed the door open, there were more than ten persons in the room. It was a big room and it looked not crowded.
Rita picked up a cup of wine on the table, handed a cup of juice to Joanna, and whispered to her, "I know that you can't drink, so I ordered the juice for you. Don't tell anyone. Otherwise, they would make us drink together. "
Holding Joanna's hand, Rita wandered among the crowd. When she proposed a toast, she introduced Joanna, "this is my best friend. Joanna, be nice to her."
"The friend of a beautiful woman is also a beautiful woman!"
"Hello." Although she did not like this kind of occasion very much, she could not disappoint Rita. So she had to greet the crowd with a smile.
Rita was guarding Joanna, afraid that if she didn't look carefully and let others take advantage of her. Joanna was also a little frightened. Seeing that the beauties one was more exposed than the other, she
shivers.
The temperature in the room was a little high, so it was naturally a little hot for Joanna wearing hoodie, and her face was reddish. It was the first time for Joanna to come to such a place. Of course she couldn't get used to it, so she asked for a leave.
Actually, Rita was going to be with her. But she couldn't let go of them because of being pestered by them. Besides, Joanna also said that she could do it by herself, so Rita let her go alone.
The man in the corner looked at her leaving, with a sinister smile on his face.
He stood up, said a few words to the people around him, and followed Joanna out.
