Chapter 172 A Heavy Slap
Tassach said, “Get to the financial department to get your salary. Then you may leave here. You are good-looking, well-educated and capable. I am sure there will be a lot of great corporations hiring you.”
Gracie looked at her with a mad face, “I need a reason! If you fire me because of Ophelia, I will never let it happen! I will tell your mom about it and I will make her my back-up! I can never fire me unless you want a feud between your family and mine!”
“I own the company! Of course I have the right to fire whoever I want. If you don’t want to be disgraced, you’d better go to get your salary and leave now!”
However, Gracie sat down with her legs crossed, looking sexy.
“I need a reason! Or I will never leave here!” she said.
“No reason! I just hate seeing you!” Tassach said straightly.
“Tassach, you do hate me? Really?”
“Yes!”
Her hand on her lap seemed to twitch a bit. Then her eyes went tearful. She had never seen such a rude man who dared to disgrace her. There were so many admirers who were willing to spend even millions of dollars just to get her heart. However, she didn’t even cast a simple glimpse at them at that time. However, Tassach Conduibh, the man who she finally had a crush on, actually be so cold and mean to her!
“Tassach, Ophelia resigned her job just because she felt ashamed for staying here! But now you blame me for that? Don’t you think you are too rude?” Gracie shouted with her bloodshot eyes. Her heart surged up with sad feelings as she, as a girl, actually took the initiate to chase after a man regardless of her own manners. However, she not only failed to move Tassach, but made herself humiliated.
At this moment, the hatred against Tassach even started to crawl in her mind. But in fact, her hatred against Ophelia was getting even greater.
Tassach lowered down his head and said, “Gracie, please leave here. I don’t want a feud between us.”
Gracie refused, “No! You are the first man that I got a crush on. You are mine! For me only! Don’t you ever dream about Ophelia again if I am still alive!”
Tassach stared at her, “Gracie, don’t you think you are hysterical? Just put down your jealousy. And I don’t deem myself qualified enough to deserve your love. Just let it go and I am sure you will meet your real prince charming in the future.”
“My prince charming is you, forever! And you mom once promised that I would be the only recognized match for you! Tassach, if you marry me, you will also get the favor of my family. If so, it will only make it much easier for you to get into the foreign market. Whatever you think, I am way much better than Ophelia!”
“Gracie, you are excellent. That’s true. But your excellency has nothing to do with my feelings. Perhaps those gigolos will be crazy about you. But I, as a man who has the ambition to build my own business, will only fight with my own efforts! Even if I fail, I could still inherit my family business, which should be paralleled to yours at least.”
Gracie looked at him madly, “Tassach, you want to end our relationship, right?”
“Let me make it clear. We have never got into a relationship.” Tassach’s words even made her more outrageous.
“Tassach, you are the worst guy I have ever seen! Now I will leave here! But I will definitely return soon!” Gracie said proudly with her head high.
Tassach said while holding a golden pen, “Thank you for your words.”
Gracie turned around, mad with her bloodshot eyes. Then she left without looking back.
Tassach looked the files on the desk. About five minutes later, he took out a phone and dialed a number. But no one answered. So he texted, ‘Ophelia, I will always keep your position available for you only. You can come back at any time you want. My love for you will last forever. Believe me, I will always be on your side if you need.’
After that, he sent the message without hesitation. However, he got no response even after quite a long time. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
He sighed, looking gloomy.
Meanwhile, Ophelia saw the message. She sighed as well. If it had occurred when they were still in college, she would have accepted his love immediately. After all, Tassach was such an excellent and attractive prince-charming-of-all-girls glowing with charm.
However, both of them missed the love because of suspicion and hesitation. As it had been so many years, Ophelia could never feel the pure love again they once had. So she could do nothing but to say sorry to Tassach.
They were destined to be friends only.
Ophelia deleted the message and closed her eyes for a nap while sitting on the back seat.
The driver asked out of concern, “Miss, are you okay? You don’t look well.”
Ophelia opened her eyes and said, sounding frustrated, “Sir, I am okay. I am just a bit tired.”
“It’s common for pregnant lady to get tired. Judged by your belly, you must have been pregnant for about half a year, right? You should be more careful. Your husband is such a careless guy. He doesn’t even come to pick you up?” the driver said.
