“No thanks. I won’t switch my job for the
time being. I’ll do it when I’ve made some
real achievements and have a better
resume,” she said.
“Don’t you mind how those people treat
you?”
“I do, but… that’s also the frustration
of being an adult. Even though I don’t
get along with those people, I still have to stay for the sake of earning a living. As for them… Um, it was the second daughter of the Atkinson family, Lily, who wanted to embarrass me. If they helped me, they would be offending Lily. We’re
not that close, so they have no reason to
do that for me, right?”
Hadwin Stephenson was somewhat surprised. He did not expect her to be so
understanding.
However, after saying that, she froze and
looked at him strangely.
“What’s the matter? Why are you looking
at me like that?” he asked with a slight
frown.
She pressed her lips together for a long time before she said, “Nothing… I’m hungry and I want something to eat.”
“Alright.” Hadwin Stephenson smiled.
Since it was not dinner time, Hadwin Stephenson took Lina to a dessert shop that was pretty popular these days.
He ordered the dessert he was interested
in, but Lina was a little absent-minded.
She kept looking at Hadwin Stephenson.
He naturally felt that something was
wrong with her, but… it felt good when she looked at him that way.
“What’s the matter? Why do you
keep looking at me today?” Hadwin Stephenson asked with a smile on his
lips.
Lina bit her lip. Everyone in this world
knew how to seek benefits and avoid
harm. She understood that her
colleagues and director were afraid
of offending Lily, so they dared not
intervene in her affairs with that woman.
However, when she had a conflict with
Jason, Hadwin Stephenson did not
hesitate to intervene and took on all the
responsibilities for her. Someone like him
should know that once he intervened, he
would offend Jason by doing so.
However, he chose to stand by her side and was willing to be the sword in her
hand.
‘Is it really… fake? What if it’s true?’
“Hadwin Stephenson, do you really like me?” Lina asked suddenly.
Hadwin Stephenson suddenly narrowed his eyes. There was a flash of surprise
in his eyes. He could feel that she was
being unprecedentedly serious right
now.
His thin lips parted as he said gently,
“Yes.” The simple word had already been
declared his heart.
“Are you… still going to get even with me?” Lina took a deep breath before
continuing to ask, “Are you going to dump me after I fall in love with you?”
He sighed. “If I only wanted to get even
with you, why would I do so much for you? Lina, do you really think I’ve been
with you all these days just to get back at
you?”
She was speechless.
Regarding the time they had spent together these days… If there was a so-called boyfriend grading system,
even if he did not get a full score, he certainly had a high score.
Sometimes she could not help but think that if she could find a boyfriend who would treat her as well as he did, then she would be really happy.
He made her know what it was like to be
so carefully cherished by a man.
“Hadwin Stephenson, I think I like you. If you want, then… How about a real
relationship? Not one that’s on the premise of revenge, but let’s become a real couple?” said Lina.
Speaking of which, this was the first time she was confessing to a man so seriously.
