The Day He Matured

On the first morning of the week, I woke up early to prepare for the company. How long has it been since I let my hair down when I go to work?

I know this face looks better with my hair down, but I don’t do that even though the company doesn’t forbid employees.

Simply because I don’t want any man to notice me and I don’t care about anyone, so I don’t need to make myself stand out too much. After all, it’s become a habit.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

Today was also the last time I saw Brian. I just want to be beautiful so I can confidently go in there and be proud when I come out because I already know he hates me. He no longer loves me, so he won’t look at me anymore.

As usual, I took my seat when there was no one in the office and the swivel chair in the director’s office was still empty.

I suddenly felt empty when I looked at the stack of documents and the resignation letter. I remember how happy I was when I got the job, and thought I would stick with the company until I was fifty years old.

Hearing the sound of shoes hitting the floor, I immediately raised my head to look and realized it was Brian.

Today, he is still wearing a white shirt and black pants, and in his hand is a vest.

We looked at each other for about a minute then he quickly walked into the room.

One minute then two minutes passed, when I saw that Brian had sat down, I took the document and entered the room, and set it down in front of him.

“These are the research records of production techniques as well as customer markets that you assigned to me.”

While I was confident that he wouldn’t find a mistake in this document to scold me, the guy in front of me didn’t even look at it. Those bullet-like eyes kept staring at me.

It seemed he had lost sleep because I saw his eyes were dark like a panda’s.

Are the condom-making techniques written on my face? Or is there a product distribution chart on my face?

“Half a month. You haven’t come to the company for half a month now.” Brian leaned back on the swivel chair, his fingers interlaced, his appearance was very leisurely.

“I told you this before and you gave me permission. You say you only care about the results, and I want to go wherever I want.” I calmly reminded this amnesiac guy so that he could recall that day.

“Yes. I have allowed you to go anywhere but within the scope of performing the assigned work. Miss Bella, I still report to the human resources department so they can give you full timekeeping and even overtime allowance. But during office hours, you hug a man and go into the hotel with him.”

After saying the last sentence, Brian suddenly stood up, and punched hard on the desk, causing me to startle and widen my eyes.

What the hell? He was following me, right? Why do I have the feeling that his eyes and ears surround my life, on every road, every place that I pass, stop by?

But what was wrong with his eyes that made him see that I was hugging a man? Obviously, I’m helping patients.

When people hate each other, they always see each other doing the wrong thing. This guy is trying to misrepresent the truth to insult me.

“After sleeping with me, you screamed as if you were a very nice person, but you took a man to a hotel.”

“Keep your mouth shut. I did not expect a highly educated person, belonging to the intellectual class, and also an influential businessman like you would speak without thinking like that.” My hands clenched, and I hated myself for not being able to punch this bad guy in the face.

“Did I say it wrong? When men and women bring each other to a hotel, they only rent a room to have sex.” Brian shouted loudly, continuing to punch hard on the desk.

I was so angry that I felt as if blood was surging and about to come out of my mouth.

It took a while for me to swallow the anger in my stomach.

His words weren’t a knife, but they cut into my heart, causing me pain.

“Don’t think everyone is like you. Don’t assume that everyone is needy and addicted to sex like you. Perverted, lustful.”

I don’t know how much I tried to be able to say a full sentence without interruption, without stuttering.

And as soon as that sentence ended, the man suddenly showed a perverted smile.

His lips curled up like he was lusting, looking so scary that I unconsciously backed away.

Brian slowly left the desk and walked towards me. His eyes were full of blood-red rays.

“You should remember that this pervert and lustful guy has satisfied you twice. Do you want to see what you look like when you’re writhing and moaning under me? You were very satisfied and enjoyed…”

A strong slap from me interrupted Brian’s sentence.

His face turned completely to one side and I could clearly see my five fingers imprinting red lines on his right cheek.

Until he turned around and looked straight at me, I was still trembling and couldn’t lower my hand.

Why is Brian still smiling? Why is he still trying to show that fake smile? Did he deliberately provoke me, mock me?

“Yes, I went to the hotel with Richard. Do you know the reason why? I went there to complete the work you intentionally assigned to me. I want to experience the product so I can give a review from the perspective and feelings of a customer. I…”

Before I could finish speaking, Brian grabbed me aggressively and stopped me with his hot lips.

His kiss was extremely brutal and prolonged, causing me pain and gradually losing oxygen. If he continues like this, I will die.

The police will conclude that the cause of my death was suffocation due to kissing too deeply and for too long.

My hand waved wildly in space and then punched Brian’s back hard, but it seemed to have no effect on this person. He was still immersed in this almost endless kiss.

“Ah… ah… ah… let go of me…”

I used all my strength to push Brian away and glared at him.

I intended to take a deep breath to get my breathing back to normal and then curse him, but before I could open my mouth again, he grabbed my skinny shoulders and pushed me down onto the desk.

While I was still unable to calm down, Brian continued to kiss my lips.

After a while, the kiss from those thin lips gradually moved across my nose, cheeks, forehead, and eyes, causing me to feel dizzy, as if I had cerebral ischemia.

“Let go of me, bastard… let me go… ah…”

The pain from my neck made me scream.

Is this guy a human or a vampire? Is he going to bite my neck and suck my blood?

Even though I cursed and struggled, Brian still ignored everything. He left his mark all over my white neck.

The places where he kissed me all brought pain and humiliation to me. I wish someone would step in here right now to rescue me.

Mrs. Erina! General Director! Security guard! Janitor! Shipper! Whoever. Please help me.

“Don’t… don’t…”

Tears fell from my eyes as the buttons of my shirt popped open and the warmth of his lips touched my collarbone.

While struggling, trying to push his head away, a horrible scene met my eyes that made me just want to bite my tongue and kill myself.

Through the glass, the sales department employees were standing still like statues and looking inside. They opened their mouths and widened their eyes.

“Ah… ah… ah…”

Because I was so panicked, my strength also multiplied. I pushed Brian away, sat down, turned my face to the foot of the desk, and quickly buttoned up my shirt.

When I turned around to look, the curtain had already been lowered by Brian.

“Bella, I… I…” Brian held out his hand in front of me and stammered.

“Are you satisfied? You humiliated me in front of so many people. You’re satisfied, right?”

I pushed away the hand that I had longed to hold all day and night, struggled to hold on to the edge of the desk, and stood up.

It took me about a minute to dry my tear-stained face and straighten my clothes.

“You… please go out and work. We’ll talk when you calm down.” Brian lowered his voice and spoke gently as if the argument had never happened.

“I will quit my job today, right at this moment.”

“I won’t sign your resignation letter. You will violate the contract.” Brian grabbed my hand and shook his head frantically, like a child refusing an adult.

“You have to sign. I will not violate the contract. The scene labeled sixteen plus of you and me has caught the eyes of nearly thirty people. They… will defend me.”

Brian’s hand gradually loosened, and I easily left the room full of obsessions. I didn’t dare look at anyone’s face when I returned to my seat.

My whole body trembled, I quickly grabbed my bag and walked quickly. I need to go quickly. Tomorrow, I will ask Mrs. Erina to help me give Brian my resignation letter.

If I don’t pay insurance, I don’t need Brian to sign a resignation letter for me. It’s my effort so I have to take it.

Why should I accept being disadvantaged because of my chaotic love affair with him?

When the elevator door closed, I staggered against the stainless steel bar, trying to caress and comfort my crying heart.

The shiny wall of the elevator helped me clearly see my pathetic appearance. My lips were red and swollen, lipstick was smudged around the edge of my lips, my neck had teeth marks and my eyes were also swollen.

Luckily I didn’t use mascara, otherwise, there would be a ghost standing in the elevator.

This is the first time I want to die because I am so humiliated.

“Come on, Bella, as long as you get out of here, you’ll be safe. Nothing to be ashamed of. You were kissed by the second prince of Hana Corporation. You should be proud and feel honored, right? Oh. I’m going crazy.” I whispered like a crazy person, trying to shake my head so that my brain could erase the previous memory.
