Contract Marriage? True Love

Chapter 13: I'll return it to you after I take it back and wash it clean.

He didn't want to answer.lt was also likely that it could not be answered.

The car in the distance whistled.

When it passed a pool of water, the man's tall figure suddenly rushed over and protected her.

Emma's face was full of confusion.

When Oliver released her, she saw the man in a muddy suit.

"Hahahahaha..."

Emma covered her stomach and burst into laughter.

It was the first time that she had seen Oliver in such a mess.

The famous CEO of Wood Enterprise was now standing in front of her with mud and water all over his body.

"What are you laughing for?"

Oliver's forehead twitched, "If you don't want to laugh, go to my car and help me get clean clothes."

Emma held back her laughter and sneaked into Oliver's car.

She tossed a bag and found a clean shirt and a pair of clean pants.

While Emma was sitting in the passenger seat, Oliver changed his clothes behind the seat.

Thinking of Oliver's embarrassed look just now, she covered her mouth to snicker.

He was afraid that she would get dirty water splashed by the car, so he turned around to protect her.As a result, he was so miserably drenched.

She did not know why, but she suddenly felt that Oliver was not so annoying.Emma raised her eyes.

Through the rearview mirror of the car, she saw the man's strong muscles after taking off his clothes.

The lines were so beautiful that they made people covetous...

"What are you looking at? Do you like my body?"

The man had a faint smile on his face.

"No, I didn't!"

Emma denied the fact that she had peeped just now.

She didn't peek at him.She just accidentally glanced at him...

Emma held Oliver's dirty clothes with a look of disgust.She looked at the expensive but dirty suit ina daze.She knew that he got it for her.

If Oliver hadn't protected her, the person covered in mud and water might have been her.

"Give me the dirty clothes.I'll pack them up."

Emma thought about it for a while and shook her head, "I'll return it to you after I take it back and wash it clean."

"Hmm?"

Emma's words were out of the man’s expectation.She actually offered to wash clothes for him.

His mouth curled into a playful smile.

"Don't get me wrong! I just help you to wash because you blocked the dirt for me!"

Emma didn't admit that she was helping him out of another reason.

"Okay, okay, okay, I know."

The man showed a gentle smile that he had never shown before.

Emma got off the car with dirty clothes in her arMs.Oliver told her to go to bed early and drove away with a faint smile.

In the cool night, Emma stood by the roadside with her clothes in her arMs.As she looked at the distant Bentley, a faint feeling of sadness flashed through her heart.

She shook her head hard, trying to wake herself up.

"I can't get caught up in it, I can't get caught up in it.If I fall in love with that man, I may get out of control."

Emma braced herself up and began the next day's work.

In order to adapt to the environment as soon as possible, she volunteered to send documents to various departments.After the morning, she had known a lot of people.

Although some people were indifferent to her, there were still many people who were willing to be friendly with her.

There were many people who liked her.

"Good morning, President Carl!"

Emma greeted Ethan as soon as she saw him.Ethan looked at Emma's knees.

It seemed that she had applied medicine on it and looked much better.

"Em."

He nodded and paused, "Go and do your work.You don't have to work so hard."

"Oh! Okay!"

There was a little excitement in Emma's heart! When she greeted Ethan before, he either ignored her or responded with a word "Em.Now President Carl actually said eight more words to her! Wow...eight words! Did it mean that President Carl already begun to accept her? "How on earth did you do things?"

A cold male voice sounded.

Emma looked over and saw Lily squatting on the ground picking up the documents that had fallen to the ground.

A male manager in front of her looked very impatient, "That's why I've already said that you newcomers can only make trouble for others and be slacking off!"

A group of colleagues around were watching Lily from a distance, and no one came forward to help her.

The man seemed to be Mr.Wilson, a supervisor of the Publicity Department.

It was said that the man had a bad temper.

Lily was so unlucky to irritate him.

The surrounding employees whispered to each other.

"I'm sorry...I'm sorry..."

Aria picked it up in a panic, and Mr.Wilson was even more dissatisfied, "What are you doing! Don't mess with the documents! It's very troublesome to mix them up!"

"Alright, alright, I understand now..."

"Such bad luck! Because of you, I'm going to be scolded by President Carl again!"

Why did the manager of the Publicity Department scold the girl from the Department of Design? Emma really couldn't stand it anymore.

She was just about to take a step, but one hand behind her suddenly stopped her.It was by a colleague who was also in the design department.

He kept shaking his head to hint her. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Emma frowned and saw Lily squatting on the ground, picking up the documents one by one and being scolded.

Finally, she let out a sigh.

After Mr.Wilson left, Emma strode forward and squatted down to help Lily pick up the documents.

Emma looked at a file of A4 paper and couldn't help frowning.

These were tasks of the Publicity Department.

Why did they give it to Lily of the design department? While she was confused, Lily suddenly grabbed the document from Emma’s hand.

Holding the document, she stood up and ran away quickly.

Without even a word of thanks, she disappeared in a panic.

Was she willing or forced to accept the work or was she forced to do? Emma really didn't understand.

She couldn't guess what Lily was thinking.

She really wanted to help her, but Lily always seemed to keep her at arm's length.Emma held the lunch box, but she had no appetite at all.

She frowned in distress.

"Why does she hate me so much...Am I that annoying..."

She just wanted to help Lily.

"You'd better not think about those useless things"

said Brianna, who was also in the Design Department, as she ate, "You've just arrived at the company, so you'd better struggle a way to find a position in the company.Lily is very radical."

"Hum? Why do you say that?"

"No matter how I say it, people like you who can easily enter the company won't understand!"

"Uh?"

Emma was confused, feeling that Brianna was implying that she came in by her relationship, "I have strength, OK?"

"That's not what I mean!"

Brianna ate the boxed lunch, "People like you who enter the company easily have only a few work every day, and don't have to worry about being fired.People like Lily, who have the potential, may be fired under this competition if they don't work hard.After all, the salary here is good."

Emma suddenly realized something.

So those tasks this morning were volunteered by Lily? "But...it's not what she should do."

"Who cares? President Carl only values those who work hard."

Brianna ate the last bite of tomato and slammed lunch box.

Emma suddenly felt that she was really out of place in this company.

Everyone was striving for some work opportunities to make the president pay more attention to him or her.

Only she, who did a small amount of work every day, was like a punk in the company.

It might be because she was so leisurely that Lily hated her.

She had been in the company for two days, but everyone here thought that she was a beauty without brains? What a joke! Her work ability was not bad.

Why should they look down on her?

"President Carl! Please arrange more tasks to me!"

Ethan almost spat out a mouthful of water when he drank it.

He looked at Emma with questioning eyes, seemingly asking, "What are you doing?"

"Isn't the company giving you a good salary?"

He thought that Emma was not satisfied with his salary, an she could increase her salary with more workload, "If you think it's too little, we can talk about it."

"No! President Carl! I don't want to be regarded as a beauty without brains!"

Emma was excellent, but she just couldn't show it in this company! Ms.Geller had arranged tasks for others that she could think of! When she asked for some tasks, but Ms.Geller just said in a low voice, "Just go to President Carl.My words don't count."

"Who said that you are a beauty without brains?"

Ethan held his forehead, although he also thought so when she entered the company...

"I beg you, President Carl! Give me a chance!"

Emma put her hands together.

She wanted to get along well with her colleagues, work hard with them, and prove her ability.

She didn't want to do nothing in the company, otherwise, she would feel very uncomfortable! Ethan waved his hand and said indifferently, "You don't have to do that.You just need to do tasks that Ms.Geller arranged to you every day.’

Tasks given to Emma were all the easy ones, while a few of them would take some time.

Ethan thought that would make her feel occupied but not busy.

With a sad face, she put on a unsatisfied look, "I finished all the tasks in the morning.’

"She finished it in the morning? It's a little fast."

Ethan began to suspect whether she had cut corners or not.

"Is that okay...Please arrange a few more tasks for me."

Ethan held his forehead and thought that Oliver's little girlfriend was silly but cute.

This was an awkward situation.

Coincidentally, Ethan's secretary walked in, "President Carl, the flat design we made with the Dreamy Company to publicize the Cherish ring, has been rejected..."

"Rejected?"

Ethan frowned, "The reason?"

The secretary wore an awkward face, "They said that it doesn't meet the style of the Cherish series of rings.It feels like being copied from someone else's idea..."

"I understand."

The flat design that was rejected was placed on the table.

Emma cast a glance at it.

Cherish? Her heart began to beat uncontrollably.

This was her favorite ring brand! The engagement ring Justin gave her was of the brand! When she remembered that she threw the ring on Justin's face, she still felt a dull pain in her heart.

Ethan noticed the strange expression on her face and asked, "What's wrong? Why do you look so pale?"

"No, no..."

Emma looked down.

Was this flat design rejected? Indeed, it was true that this was not of Cherish style.

"President Carl, can you give me a chance to make the design?"

Based on her understanding of this series of rings, she believed that she was able to make a good design.

"You?"

The suspicious expression on the Ethan's face was captured by Emma.
