Chapter 54 Still Angry with Me?
Adele returned to the office in a depressed mood. Hardly has she sat down, someone pushed open her door.
Grace stood at the door, looked at Adele, and asked, “How is it? Have you got everything arranged?”
Adele was not in the mood and casually answered, “Yes.”.
“Has Mr. Yusuf arrived?” Grace was a little surprised.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
“Yes.”
“What do you mean? How’s the work going?” Grace asked with dissatisfaction.
Adele took a deep breath and came back to her senses. She turned to look at Grace and said word by word, “I have welcomed Mr. Harry and arranged for him to go to the reception room. I have done everything I need to do. Mr. Yusuf is also here. As for what they are talking about, I don’t know.”
Hearing her words, Grace was obviously a little dissatisfied, but she couldn’t complain.
She had long heard of the rumor that Mr. Harry was a womanizer and liked to bully people. That was why she had deliberately thrown the most difficult job to Adele. She wanted to see her make a fool of herself, but she did not expect that things would not go as she wished in the end.
Seeing that this topic could not go on, she could only change the topic. “Is the timesheet ready? I need it urgently.”
“You just gave it to me this morning. I have other work in the afternoon. I don’t have time to finish it yet.” Adele took a deep breath and answered truthfully.
“Hurry up.” Grace heard this and said coldly.
After saying that, she turned around and walked out of the office.
With a bang, the door was closed. Adele sat in front of the desk, but her mood still did not show any signs of improvement.
When she thought of Damon, she was like a frosted eggplant, unable to cheer up.
Finally, it was time to get off work. When Adele returned home, she at first wanted to ask Mary some tips on how to please Damon, but after inquiring, she learned that Damon would not come home that night.
She had thought that it would only be one night, but for the next three consecutive days, Damon did not return home to spend the night.
It seemed that this time, he was really angry with her.
During the three days, she was busy with work at the department. The number of times she saw Damon could be counted. She only met him occasionally at the company. He was always in a hurry.
Adele had looked for countless opportunities to have a moment with him. Finally, when there was a document to be handed to the president’s office, she volunteered to send it.
She just wanted to meet Damon and say a few words.
Holding the document, Adele went to the president’s office with excitement. Just as she arrived at the door, she saw Sherry.
It seemed that she had been discharged from the hospital.
The two of them looked at each other, then Adele turned her eyes away and continued to walk toward Damon’s office.
“Wait a minute.”
The moment she brushed past her, she was suddenly stopped.
“What’s wrong?” Adele turned to look at Sherry.
When she saw Sherry at this time, she had reacted to her normally without too much thought.
As if she was still a little afraid of Adele, Sherry’s voice was a little hesitant, but it was still mixed with a bit of coldness. “What are you going to do?”
“To send the document,” Adele said as she waved the document in her hand.
“Give it to me, I’ll send it to him,” Sherry said as she reached out her hand.
“There are still some things I need to report. It’s better for me to go personally,” Adele said softly as she dodged the hand holding the document.
After she finished speaking, she did not wait for Sherry to say anything and directly walked forward.
Sherry’s expression instantly turned bad. She turned around and stared at Adele’s back, gnashing her teeth.
Sooner or later, she would let her suffer!
Adele walked to the office door and knocked on the door. When she heard the sound inside, she pushed the door open and entered.
She walked in and saw Damon sitting at the table reading through documents.
She took a deep breath. “Mr. Yusuf, this is the summary document of the Administrative Department you asked for.”
“En, put it on the table,” said Damon.
“Okay.”
Adele slowly put the documents on the table. After doing all this, she still stood there, showing no intention of leaving.
“Is there anything else?” asked Damon as he looked at the woman’s hesitant expression.
For the past few days, he deliberately did not go home, just to keep a distance from her, and also to cool down the tension in their relationship. Also, it was not convenient for him to go back at this time…
Adele twisted her hands together and gathered her courage to ask, “Are you coming home tonight?”
“Is there anything at home?”
“… No.” Adele bit her lips.
“We’ll see,” Damon said as he casually put the documents aside.
As he spoke, he stood up and walked over to the clothes rack to pick up his coat.
Adele felt a lump in her throat. She suddenly reached out and gently grabbed the man’s clothes. “Are you still angry with me…?”
Ever since he had confronted her in the lounge last time, he had not been home.
Damon paused and turned slightly. “… No.”
Adele lowered her head and bit her lips. “That means you dislike me…?”
“No.” Damon frowned.
He had never disliked her. Otherwise, why would he have married her in the first place?
Adele took a deep breath and said softly, “Then come home tonight. Mary and I miss you very much.”
Damon paused and did not know how to refuse.
Although he had another purpose in marrying her, she was still his nominal wife. He should not ignore her.
After a few seconds of silence, he said softly, “Okay.”
“You agreed!” Adele was overjoyed when she heard him agree.
Because she was happy, her hand that was tugging at the corner of his clothes unknowingly exerted force. Suddenly, Damon’s expression changed and he let out a muffled groan.
“What… what are you doing?”
Adele was shocked and subconsciously released her hand. Looking at the man’s stiff back, she asked worriedly, “What happened?”
“It’s fine. I need to go out for something. You can go back to work,” Damon replied casually.
Seeing Damon’s firm attitude, Adele did not ask more. She left the office.
No matter what, he was finally willing to go home!
Adele was in a good mood. When she returned to the department, she immediately sent a text message to Mary and asked her to prepare more dishes.
After receiving Mary’s reply, Adele happily took the cup to the tea area and poured a cup of juice.
Shirley walked to Adele’s side and got a cup of hot water. Seeing the expression on her face, she could not help but ask, “What makes you so happy? Could it be that… you are in love?”
Adele reacted and subconsciously denied, “Of course not!”
Although she said this, for some reason, her cheeks were burning.
Shirley laughed and said, “Your face is red, and you still say you are not?”
Hearing her say this, Adele did not know how to respond. She quickly slipped into the office and closed the door.
She leaned against the door for a long time before she calmed down.
She touched her cheek. It was really hot!
She had just thought about Damon… Could it be that she was really in love with Damon?
Suddenly, the phone rang. Adele came back to her senses and picked it up. It was a WeChat message from her mom.
“Adele, how is your discussion with Damon? Why is there no more news?”
Seeing this news, Adele suddenly remembered that she still had something she hadn’t told Damon!
It was about the wedding. She hadn’t seen Damon for a few days and had forgotten about it.
If Damon went home today, she would have to find a chance to talk to him.
