Chapter 559 The Boss's Invitation

My joke made Joe look much more relaxed. As for his gift, I didn't mention it to Aaron again after I got home. I just really treated it as a keychain

And in the blink of an eye, my vacation came to an end

On Monday morning, I returned to work on time to attend the company's all-staff meeting. When I arrived at the conference room, I coincidentally encountered the head of the advertising department searching for the presentation files of the previous quarter's new products. I remembered that I had saved them on my USB flash drive, so I took them off my keychain and instructed my assistant to make copies of the

files

The action of me removing the USB flash drive, although not significant, still caught the attention of a few colleagues beside me

There was a girl who had a good relationship with me. She saw my keychain at a glance and came over with some surprise, smiling, "Olive, it seems that your daughters haven't grown up enough to help you choose decorations, but you have already started using such childish ornaments."

She had been married for three years and had a two-year-old daughter. One of the main reasons why we had a good relationship was that she often shared her experience of raising a daughter with me as an elder

Of course, in casual conversations, she would

often boast to me with a happy smile about what seemingly childish little gifts her daughter had given her. It is precisely because of this that ever since I met her, I have been looking forward even more to the day when the children grow

up

However, today her joke made me unconsciously stunned for a moment, and then I laughed and touched the pendant, laughing it off as a joke

Because we were sitting not far from Mr

Marilyn, I could clearly see that when I was talking with my colleague just now, Mr

Marilyn's gaze glanced over and landed on the rabbit wood carving next to me

But when I confidently looked up and met his gaze, he quickly averted his eyes, and there was an inexplicable strangeness about him that made

me wonder if I had done something wrong

After the meeting, Mr. Marilyn spoke up and asked me to stay behind to report on the research and development achievements of the previous quarter. This further confirmed my thoughts

No one would not feel uneasy when being left alone by the boss, and I am no exception

But obviously, Mr. Marilyn's intention for keeping me was not really to listen to the research and development results I left behind

After he finished talking incessantly about that

series of data, he didn't express any opinions on it, but ust nodded lightly and closed the folder

in his hand. Then, he turned and pointed at the

wooden carving in my hand

"When did you start liking these small things with an oriental touch? I have never seen you use any similar decorations before."

I noticed the adjective he used to describe the decoration I had, "having an Oriental touch."

At that moment, it seemed like I understood something, perhaps it was this wooden carving that reminded him of his Asian wife

To be honest, my previous speculations and doubts have now turned into apologies at this moment

Because I had not realized before, wearing jewelry related to his deceased wife in front of a man who had lost his wife would evoke some unpleasant feelings of nostalgia for him

I awkwardly held the wooden carving in my

palm and explained, "This is a small gift my family gave me, and I happened to need a keychain, so I decided to use it."Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Mr. Marilyn stared at my actions, but after a while, he didn't say anything more. He just smiled, organized the documents in front of him, and then picked up his briefcase and left

I thought our conversation had come to an end, so I quickly stepped forward to help him open the door to the meeting room, and then turned to walk back to the office myself

But Mr. Marilyn called me again

"Olive, let's have lunch together today. Last time you helped Meteor with his homework and he won first prize at kindergarten. He was very

happy and insisted on inviting you to dinner as a thank you."

My footsteps momentarily froze, I had to admit, when I received the invitation from my boss to have lunch together, my initial reaction was surprisingly annoyed

Because once again, he used the child as an excuse

I didn't know what Mr. Marilyn's purpose was for inviting me over multiple times, but from a mother's intuition, a five-year-old child would never say something like inviting me for a meal as a way of expressing gratitude

But after all, the other party is my boss. I thought for a moment and then politely refused with a smile, "Mr. Marilyn, I just came back from my leave, and there is still a lot of work that I didn't participate in last week. I need to quickly integrate into the project progress today

I plan to have lunch in the office. As for the

Meteor assignment, I just helped out casually, so you don't have to worry about it."

Mr. Marilyn leaned against the wall and shrugged his shoulders after I finished speaking

"But I had already sent the driver to pick up Meteor, Olive. Are you really willing to let a poor child down?"
