Chapter 44: Get married
But Aaron, who was talking enthusiastically, did not understand David’s good intentions, crossed his legs on the desk and changed positions, shrunk into the office chair, looking for a comfortable position, looking at David with a curious face, and continued to chatter, “Ugh, David, do you think, the boss is not too much do not know how to pity the jade? It’s been so many hours, and on a cold and hard desk, he is simply, tsk ……”
“Simply what?” A soft, low voice rings softly in the ear, speaking slowly and gently.
Aaron’s big hand waved back, and four words came out of his mouth, “Beastly!”
“Pfft!” David couldn’t hold back his laughter, but after glancing out of the corner of his eye at Fred Garner, who was standing behind Aaron expressionlessly, he could barely hold back his cramped stomach, put on his usual strict and serious appearance, and respectfully called out, “President!”
Total …… president?
Looking at David’s face, which was somewhat distorted by holding in laughter, Aaron’s hand froze in mid-air, his mouth half-open and could not close, his handsome face was streaked with clear white, his forehead was cold and sweaty, already densely covered with a thin layer of sweat.
“The old …… boss ……” crying face stiff smile slowly turn back around, Aaron automatically and spontaneously will be folded on the table feet collected down, eyes do not dare to glance at their own boss. “Hey …… hey hey …… good …… good coincidence!”
“You came back pretty fast.”
Fred Garner crossed his arms around his chest and looked askance at him, his low, soft voice made the hairs on Aaron’s back stand up one by one.
“Well, then …… that …… you guys are done …… finished …… oh, no , you guys went out?” Aaron wrinkled his face unconsciously to the chair shrink, extremely careful, with the corner of the eye peeked at the woman standing next to Fred Garner, a mouth again opened into an “O”, “… Miss Elena? How could it be you? ……”
“May I ask if Aaron has seen me before?” Elena froze and looked at Aaron, but she really didn’t remember.
“I met you at the Paris International Costume Contest last year, maybe you don’t remember.” Aaron was surprised, he had invited Elena last year in Paris, only that Elena had refused at that time.
At that time, Elena won the grand prize, there were many people who wanted to sign her, Elena naturally would not remember such a thing, but in the end she still came, only to say that in the underworld, everything was predestined long ago.
“So it’s like this, president, since there’s nothing else, then I’ll go back to my office first.” Elena said with a calm face.
Just now Aaron suddenly called her, startled her, afraid must he knew about Jack and Jeffery, this will hear his explanation, finally relieved.
“Cough …… cough, Aaron, people have gone far away.” Seeing that Aaron had committed the president’s taboo again, David lightly coughed and reminded.
Aaron came back to his senses, hurriedly stopped his mouth, a face of doubt, “Fred, I remember that Miss Elena seems to have a boyfriend, seems to be a designer as well.”
Aaron’s voice from the back end also reached Elena’s ears, but Elena didn’t care, she knew who Aaron was talking about? At least that’s what people on the outside think, she’s used to it, and besides James loves her two kids, he’s been helping her most of the time in Italy for five years.
It was also a good thing Aaron had barged in, or he would have almost given …… God knows how many women were lying there on that desk.
Elena really found it hard to believe, seeing as he tried to trick her into sleeping with him all day long, it was a wonder he really hadn’t had a woman around him in the past five years.
“Nonsense, Elena is married, and if she were, she’d have a husband.” Fred Garner gave Aaron a blank look and didn’t take his words to heart.
“Really, David, did I hear you wrong, or did the boss have his head squeezed through the door?” Seeing that Fred Garner also returned to his office, Aaron scratched his head and said.
“Your head has been squeezed through the door, for good reason, why do you want to suppress the boss.” David shook his head and couldn’t help but sympathize with Aaron.
“I’m just telling the truth, I did see her with a man last year, and ……”
“Come on, Aaron, if you’re tired of living, you can go to the president’s ear again and say, in fact, even if Elena designer had a boyfriend in the past is nothing, people can break up, you said you are not nothing to find things ah.”
“Who broke up?” David was persuading Aaron when Bess came back and smiled when she saw Aaron and said, “Aaron, you’ve been dumped by your girlfriend again.”
“That’s impossible… Huh – David, look, doesn’t Bess look a lot like our beautiful designer? Especially that mouth and nose.” Aaron tsked closer to Bess as if he had found a new toy.
“Aaron, get your ass in here right now.” Aaron’s mouth had just closed when Fred Garner’s angry low growl came out from inside.
“Ah! This is dead, David, if I’m not out in ten minutes, you must remember to call 120,” Aaron said bitterly, casting a pitiful look at David before entering the president’s office.
“David, what’s wrong with Aaron?” Bess looked at Aaron, who entered the president’s office with a bitter face, puzzled.
“You said Aaron, in a nutshell: he saw what he shouldn’t see and said what he shouldn’t say.” David finished his speech and went to do his own work, but this sentence aroused Bess’s curiosity.
“Glen, what are we not supposed to see in this office?” Bess asked in a whisper as she approached David.
“Bess, curiosity can kill a cat, so don’t ask so many questions.” David looked up at the president’s office, then turned to Elena’s office, and shook his head.
Bess’s eyes followed David’s eyes, and when she settled on Elena’s office door, she had an epiphany and pursued it even more relentlessly, “David, what the hell is going on, can you tell us, it’s not like you’re really going to die.”
See Bess leaned over, David again glanced at the president’s office, see the door is still closed, estimated that a moment will not open, then whispered: “Aaron came back, accidentally broke into the president’s office.”
“This is not much, right? Which time Aaron did not break into the president’s office directly.” Bess paused and said unconcerned.
“That’s different. Elena’s designer wasn’t in the president’s office before.” David said offhandedly.
“Elena designer? Elena, you mean Aaron saw Elena in the president’s office – saw what he shouldn’t have seen, that is?” Bess murmured, his eyes no longer playful, looking at Elena’s office more than a few people can not guess to see the complex emotions.
Elena went back to her office and put the designs in her hands, and when she saw that it was time to leave, she decided to leave before Fred Garner caught her again, and when she came out and saw David and Bess mysteriously, she said hello in passing.
“Glen, Bess, you guys are still here, I still have something to do, I’ll leave first.”
“Okay, I’m off duty.” David looked at the watch on his wrist and got up, also intending to hurry to avoid the eye of the storm.
“David, you still haven’t said, what’s the matter?” Bess saw anxiously, tugged his arm and said.
“Bess, I’ll leave work first, if you don’t want to be like Aaron, you’d better leave work early.” David said, plucked Bess’s hand, picked up his briefcase and immediately dashed away.
“David, Glen, David ……” Bess tried to pull David, but David was as slippery as a loach and ran away in a flash, making her stomp her foot.
Bess looked at the president’s office as she slowly cleaned up her desk.
It’s been half an hour since the end of the day, but why aren’t the president and Aaron coming out? What exactly did Aaron see before?
Before David stammered what ‘saw what should not be seen, said what should not be said’, Aaron and a ‘big disaster’ look, in the end saw what? And it has something to do with Elena?
“Ughhhh, what the hell is going on?” Bess beat her head against the door, let’s go, didn’t figure it out, definitely can’t sleep at night, don’t go, the president and Aaron in the end went inside to say what? Is it official business, or is it a ‘personal matter’ from before?
The more Bess thought about it, the more itchy she was, so she went to the pantry and made a pot of coffee, and when she came out, she saw that the door to the president’s room was still closed, so she bit her lip lightly and carried two cups of coffee to the president’s room.
She lifted one hand to knock on the door, but unexpectedly, just as her hand touched it, the door actually opened a crack.
Bess was shocked and immediately withdrew her hand and did not knock again.
Inside Aaron’s voice immediately came out through the doorway.
“Fred, you’re not for real this time, are you?”
“I want to get married” Fred Garner gave a blank look.
“Marriage? My God, Fred, you don’t have a fever, do you? How long have you known Elena the designer? Do you know her? Do you know if she has a boyfriend? Do you know ……” Aaron wailed at the sound of this, while his big hand reached for Fred Garner’s forehead, only to be swept away with one hand.
“She can’t have a boyfriend, Aaron, you give me a tight mouth, this matter, do not say anything first, another two months, the New Year should be about the same.” Fred Garner thought about it and said.
Two months should be enough time to announce his relationship with Elena on New Year’s Day, and in those two months, he would definitely make Elena say that word.
“Two months? Fred, you’re not kidding, are you?” Aaron said like a parrot while wiggling his fingers.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
