“Why not?” Larissa thought Marilyn had overreacted. “Mr. Logan Junior is not a wall or something. What’s wrong with liking him?”
Marilyn waved at Larissa to tell her to be quiet. “Don’t let Mr. Logan Junior hear you say that!”
“What’s wrong?” Larissa turned to look at the direction Lewis had left in. Once she was sure she could not see him, she said, “I thought our company doesn’t prevent workplace relationships?”
She knew this because the presidential office had one couple. Although it was not obvious, they did not hide themselves when they were being affectionate with each other.
Although Lewis was strict, that was only on work. He could not prevent ladies from liking him.
“Shh Marilyn moved her chair closer to Larissa and leaned closer to her. She spoke in a low voice, “Our female employees know that all other men in the company are available except for Mr. Logan Junior.”
“Why?” Larissa only heard this for the first time.
“Mr. Logan Junior did not make any rules– But previously, some bold ladies confessed to him, Birted with him openly and secretly. In the end, they were all fired.”
The previous examples still frightened Marilyn, “Moreover, you will get fired too for showing that you like him for just a little bit! So, after that, no one dared to try again.”
“Huh — Larissa could not understand why Lewis insisted on being single. After a moment of thought, a dumb idea came to her mind. “He can’t be into guys, right?”
The moment Larissa said that, Marilyn rushed to cover Larissa’s mouth. She looked up at the same time and said shakily. “Mr. Logan Junior
Lewis stopped next to them. He looked at Marilyn, then at Maria, and he frowned. “What are you two doing?”
“Nothing. We were just chatting.” Marilyn smiled sheepishly. She let go of Larissa and straightened up. Then, she changed the subject like she did not mean to and said, “How come you came back so fast?”
Lewis still watched them suspiciously. “There weren’t a lot of people paying for the bill” he replied.
Marilyn quickly grabbed her bag and stood up to prevent him from asking more questions. “Let’s go then since we’ve paid!” As she spoke. she pulled on Larissa’s arm.
Larissa was not afraid of Lewis, but she was afraid of Lewis seeing Marilyn in a bad light, so she agreed with her friend and said. “Thank you for your treat today, Mr. Logan Junior. I guess today ends here.”
Lewis pretended not to notice the weirdness of both ladies as he agreed with Larissa. He followed them out of the restaurant.
They walked back to the company to get their cars.
Larissa did not drive to work, so Lewis suggested sending her back. “It’s easy for me to drop by Larissa’s place, I can give her a lift back.”
“Sure. Drive safely.” Marilyn was probably still worried about Lewis holding her accountable, and she did not say more to him. She got into her car and escaped.
After getting into the car, Lewis only started demanding answers from Larissa. “Who did you say was into guys to Marilyn earlier?”
He only heard that one sentence, But from the ladies‘ reactions, he might be who they were talking about
Larissa laughed as she tried to fudge it over. “Just a male colleague.”
“Who?” Lewis refused to let her go. He wanted to find out exactly who. “Which department? What’s his name?”
“Why are you asking such detailed questions? Larissa pretended to glare at him angrily. “Our company has no rule saying we can’t hire people like that!
