Chapter 294 Being Surrounded
Most of those men fixed their eyes on Ophelia, looking curious. While Ophelia was rendered so confused because of their gaze, one of the men asked, “Lady, are you actually Mrs. Lowe? No wonder he always keeps his wife as a mystery. Whenever he was asked about it, he claimed that he was still single. But he always gets off work on time every single day. So he must be a married man. We even teased him about it. Now we all know how attractive Mrs. Lowe is. No wonder he remains reticent on this matter. But Mrs. Lowe, you really startle us. You didn’t even look like a married lady who has a baby to nourish.”
Ophelia was rendered a bit embarrassed for their over-enthusiasm. She even felt like being in a family instead of a well-decorated security company. All of them seemed to enjoy getting along with each other.
“Sorry, it’s my first time to meet your boss last night. Today I just drop by to see if I can hire some capable bodyguards from you.” Said Ophelia with a decent smile. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Madeleine hurried to keep Ophelia behind, “Gentlemen, this lady is married and now she has been pregnant for seven months. Don’t be so passionate. I don’t want her to be disturbed. Or I will call the police.”
Those men all looked upset when hearing that, “Mrs…Oh, sorry, miss. Are you sure you are not kidding?”
Ophelia shook her head.
Soon, their upset boo sounded.
“Huh, we thought our boss was finally discerning enough to marry a beauty. But she actually appears to be someone else’s wife?”
When they knew that Ophelia was not the mysterious ‘Mrs. Lowe’, they then shifted their eyes on Madeleine, “Lady, so what’s your relationship with our boss? Are you his girlfriend? You also look pretty. If you would like to be Mrs. Lowe, we would definitely agree on it.”
Madeleine was rendered a bit awkward. Then she replied, “I am just a friend of your boss. Gentlemen, thanks for your blessing. But I am afraid I might fail you.”
“So are you married?”
“Are you in a relationship?”
“May I know your age?”
…
Soon, Madeleine was surrounded by bustling questions. When Wilfred showed up, he only saw both of the two girls were in the middle of the crowd while facing all kinds of heated questions.
Though Wilfred was a tall guy with open mind, he still felt embarrassed upon seeing that.
“Hey, what are you doing with these ladies? We are running a security company, not a gang!” as soon as his loud voice sounded, everyone present stepped aside.
“Welcome, Mr. Lowe.” All of them bowed with respect while speaking in a wry voice.
Wilfred couldn’t help feeling annoyed.
“You brats! Here is your workplace! Stay decent! What if our customers see how ridiculous you are? Do you want us to go bankrupt?” shouted Wilfred.
But one of them teased, “Boss, the two ladies are still here. You should also be decent if you don’t want to scare them out of the gate. We can’t do anything about it either.”
Not until then did he notice that both Ophelia and Madeleine were still standing beside. He was just driven so annoyed that he yelled regardless of manner.
Soon, Wilfred turned blushed on his face, looking a bit awkward.
For the staffs, it was rare to see blush on Wilfred’s face out of awkwardness. So they all jeered, “Wow, Mr. Lowe, we have never expected that you actually have the moment to wear a blushed face. What a flash-news! Guys, come over here to look at him!”
Wilfred wielded his hand to drive them away with his eyes widely opened, “Get back to work! Get yourself some food if you are hungry. Everyone needs to assemble after lunch. The two ladies are going to hire one or two of you as their bodyguards. Show them what you got and don’t fail it if you don’t want your year-end bonus to be cancelled.”
“Oh…” They still let out an ambiguous voice as they believed that his boss was still trying to court either of the two ladies.
Wilfred’s face turned blushed again and he was quite annoyed. Then he kicked one of them, “Get back to your work! If you keep loafing, even your attendance bonus will be deducted. Stop damaging our corporate image, brats!”
All those staffs kept jeering, “Oh, Mr. Lowe, your face turn blushed again because of the fair ladies’ presence, right? This lady named Ophelia is married but the other one is still single. It seems that only Madeleine will be known as Mrs. Lowe soon. Mr. Lowe, just keep up. You suck if you remain single all the time.”
Upon hearing that, Wilfred lifted his leg to kick them. All those staffs immediately stepped back. Wilfred huffed, “Just get back to work! Or get yourself something to eat. If you dare to keep loafing, both your attendance bonus and year-end bonus will be cancelled.”
“Wow, but you still look blushed.” They kept laughing. While Wilfred was about to get so mad that he was going to beat them, the staffs all dismissed at the same time.
Wilfred scratched his head and pretended to be composed while speaking, “Well, ladies, did they offend you?”
