Chapter 2
We have been in love for seven years,
s, even in the midst of storms and galles. As the CEO, he always kept a clear boundary between work and personal life, and he never once gave me a ride to or from work.
On Shaylee’s first day of work, he began to enjoy his car pick up and drop–off service.
Thinking of this.
I dropped the folk to the ground and tremblingly reached out to pick it up. By the time I stood up straight, Jordan had already walked outside the hallway.
Without looking back, he said, “The company has something urgent to attend to. I’ll bring you next time.” And he h
Half an hour later, I limped my way to the workstation
For some reason, most of my colleagues around me looked at me with sympathy in their eyes,
When I went to the pantry to fetch water, I heard two colleagues whispering to each other.
“So, Mr. Stout really left Veronica and got together with that Shaylee?”
- re. You guys didn’t see this morning, Shaylee just got her period and got a little stain on her skirt.”
oh, for sure. You guys
“oh,
hurriedly left,
Mr. Stout directly in front of all the supervisors in the conference room, princess–carried her to the top floor office,
The mug in my hand slipped and broke
The gossip in the pantry came to a sudden halt.
*****quatted down and silently picked up the pleces of the cup, and threw them into the trash can one by one.
I worked overtime until ten o’clock at night. Suddenly, I felt a heaviness on my shoulders.
It was Jordan who draped the suit jacket over me
“Veronica, why didn’t you reply to the message that I sent you?”
I didn’t turn back, I just lit up my phone and glanced at the unread messages.
What flavor of coffee do you girls usually like to drink?
Three years ago, I, like everyone else, couldn’t resist asking Jordan for the first cup of coffee in autumn.
At that time, Jordan looked at me with disdain in his eyes.
“Veronica, you’re a boring old woman in your late twenties, don’t disgust me with this kind of nonsense.”
But at the moment, Jordan took the initiative to bring a cup of coffee.
Seeing that I hadn’t touched my coffee, I continued working
Jordan’s eyes lit up with excitement,
“Weren’t you clamoring to drink this before?”
I casually replied, “It’s too late, drinking will cause insomnia”
There was a moment of silence,
The man said coldly, “I will go to the restroom and then we will go home together.”
Half a minute later, the phone that Jordan had placed on my desk lit up for a moment
It was Shaylee’s message
Jordan is such a fool. Who would ever give away dozens of cups of coffee at once? Did Jordan really want to turn me into a little silly pig? I shivered in fear.
home a little after cleven o’clock
walked into the bedroom and started tidying up my
my personal belongings. As fordan entered the bedroom after taking a shower, he noticed that t
the items on the dressing table had clearly decreased.
He furrowed his brow.
“Veronica, next month I will be on a business trip to Castlepond. Do you have anything you want to purchase? Make a list for me”
I replied to him without hesitation
“No need to bother, I didn’t need anything,”
Anyway, I will be leaving in a few days.
Why bother with unnecessary actions?
Throwing the towel onto the bed, Jordan looked at me with icy eyes.
“Just because I bought breakfast that didn’t suit your taste, you have been throwing a tantrum at me until now, right?”
I was just about to explain that I wasn’t angry.
The man let out a sneer.
“You know I hated women who put on airs the most, Veronica, you crossed the line.”
Walking into the study, Jordan forcefully slammed the door shut
They were in a relationship for seven years, and Jordan initiated countless cold wars
And I, countless times, humbly begged and pleaded.
However, this time, I really didn’t care anymore. Jordan stayed in the study all night and didn’t hear a knock on the door.
The next morning, I made breakfast for two people as usual
Just as I finished my own portion and was getting ready for work
