Chapter 187 You Hate Me?
Just as she was lost in thought, the footsteps outside the door got closer and closer. Suddenly, the door was pushed open and a tall figure appeared at the door.
Adele was stunned and her back stiffened. She raised her head and saw Damon standing at the door, looking at her with a serious expression.
“What are you doing here?” Adele asked subconsciously.
Seeing the panic in the woman’s eyes, Damon pursed his lips unhappily and said in a low voice, “I’m here to inspect work.”
As he spoke, he did not care about Adele’s expression. He strode forward and walked to the desk without any explanation.
His deep, dark eyes carried a bit of sharpness as he quickly swept past her desk. His gaze finally stopped at a folder at the corner of the right table.
Adele followed his gaze and immediately panicked. Before she could react, Damon had already reached out his long hand and picked up the folder to flip through it.
Adele’s heart tightened and he immediately felt a little suffocated.
It was the Japanese contract that Owen needed to translate for her! If Damon found out that she secretly took over the job, the consequences would be unimaginable.
After all, Yusuf Group had clearly stated that employees were not allowed to take private jobs to earn extra money.
Now that her document was placed at the corner of the table, if he saw it just like that, I’m afraid…
Before Adele could imagine the consequences, Damon had already raised his head, his thin lips pursed, and a thin layer of anger appeared in his eyes.
The man raised his hand and held the document in his hand. He stared into her eyes and asked, “What is this?”
Adele could not help but tighten her grip on the document. Her eyes began to drift.
What should she say? To directly admit that it was a private job she had secretly accepted?
However, there seemed to be something wrong.
She had been working overtime for several days, but today, he came over as soon as she got the folder. He took advantage of the excuse of inspecting work. Coincidentally, the moment he came in, he did not look at anything else but directly picked up this folder.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
It was as if he had already known about it…
Adele’s heart was empty. Only then did she slowly react. She bit her lips and was silent for a long time. Finally, she gathered the courage to look up at the man’s cold eyes and said coldly, “This is a contract that a friend of mine needs to translate. I’m just helping him.”
Hearing this, Damon frowned and threw the folder in his hand on the table. “Do you know that there is a rule in the company that prohibits private work?”
Adele took a deep breath and clenched his fists. “I don’t intend to do it in the company. The time I get off work is my personal time. Can I do this?”
He must have known about this matter in advance. Wasn’t this deliberately picking a fight?
When he thought that his every move might be under Damon’s surveillance, a sense of anger rose in Adele’s heart.
She took a deep breath and said coldly, “Don’t worry, Mr. Yusuf. I definitely won’t use my working hours to do this. It won’t affect my other jobs.”
Seeing the woman raise her chin slightly, her eyes were cold and proud like a black swan, Damon’s anger immediately became stronger.
It was clearly her fault, but now it was as if he was the one who was wrong.
The veins on his forehead were raised. Damon clenched his fists and pursed his lips into a cold crack. A few seconds later, he reached out and pressed his hands on the armrest of Adele’s chair. Then, he exerted force and pulled Adele and the chair towards himself.
“Hua!” Before Adele could react, she looked up at the two people who were much closer to her. She could not help but feel weak. As soon as the two of them approached, she smelled the faint smell of alcohol on the man. Immediately, she became even more panicked.
She subconsciously reached out her hand to block the man’s chest. “You… What are you doing?”
Damon’s dark eyes were dark and unclear. “I said that you can come to me if you need help,” he said coldly.
He had told her to look for him, but she didn’t look for him. She just wanted to get close to Owen and have a hot fight with him!
Besides, as long as she needed help, he only needed to give her a few projects that she could do, and he would get a lot more bonus after that.
He didn’t want to deny her self-esteem, nor did he say that he would give her a sum of money for nothing. He just gave her a chance to earn money with her own strength. Unexpectedly, she had no intention of asking him for help at all.
When Adele heard this, her face instantly became ugly. She looked back at Damon, her eyes were deep and cold, and her heart was burning with anger.
“I don’t need your help!” She gritted her teeth, her mind heated up, and she spoke without thinking, “Do you think that everyone should circle around you? Damon, let me tell you, I am different from the women around you! I don’t allow you to do whatever you want! I hate you, and I don’t even want to see you!”
The anger that was suppressed in the bottom of her heart had been fermented, and just like that, all of it exploded out in anger.
Damon was startled, and seemed to not believe what he had heard.
He had never heard any woman say that she hated him. He had no feelings for women, especially towards those women who wanted to pounce on him. But now that someone said they hated him and didn’t want to see him, the emotions in his heart were strange and complicated.
He frowned, and the hands holding the armrest on both sides of the chair couldn’t help but tighten. He looked at her, his dark eyes like a vortex, sucking her in deeply.
“Do you hate me?” Damon said in a cold voice.
Adele was angry. Even though he saw the dangerous light in the man’s eyes, he still confirmed the answer without hesitation. “Yes, I hate…” he said word by word.
Before her voice fell, her chin was lifted by a big hand. The next second, her lips softened and all her words were blocked.
The man’s movements were overbearing. The moment she stretched out her hand to resist, he had already reached out and easily clasped both of her hands behind her back, firmly suppressing them.
Adele was so angry that her face turned red. She couldn’t push it away, so she twisted her body to grab, push, kick, kick. After a round of tossing, not only did Damon not let go, he even moved closer to her.
She had no choice but to open her mouth and bite his lips in anger.
Feeling the blood spread in her mouth, Damon frowned slightly. It was his blood.
He didn’t expect her to be so ruthless and not show any mercy.
He pulled his head back and opened the distance between the two of them. Looking at the woman’s stubborn eyes and watery lips, his eyes suddenly darkened.
He reached out and pulled her up from the chair. He pushed her to the side and pushed her to the desk beside him.
Adele gritted his teeth in anger. He couldn’t break free. He could only glare at him fiercely and threaten him verbally, “Damon, let go! If you don’t let go, I will call for help!”
When she said this, Damon’s expression did not change at all. She paused for two seconds and suddenly reacted.
At this time, no matter how much she shouted, no one would come to save her.
At this moment, Damon’s big hand climbed up her waist and slid down without hesitation, penetrating through the cloth without any obstacles.
Adele’s face suddenly changed. Her body tensed up in an instant. Before she could react, the man was already close to her ear. His voice was very soft, but it carried a sense of confidence. “Since you hate me, why do you have a reaction?”
This sentence was like a clap of thunder, exploding in her ears!
