Chapter 64 Men also need to be coaxed
“Feel what?” Elena looked ahead sheepishly, not daring to look at Aaron.
“Elena, you are really heartless, with Fred’s character and financial power, what kind of woman do you want, but I have known him for twenty years, except for Anna, of course, that woman, you can pretend she is dead. In all these years, except for you, I have not seen him give any woman a good face.” Aaron said, holding out for Fred.
“But again, I didn’t see that I had only been with him for three days before coming to The Cloud Group , and most of those three days were spent at ……” Elena’s voice got lower and lower the more she spoke, and by the end of it, it was inaudible.
“Three days? You guys ……” Aaron held out his finger in shock, seeming to understand the reason for Elena’s whisper, “It’s not like you were in bed for those three days.”
Elena’s face was getting hot, even if it was, Aaron didn’t have to say it so directly, and besides, she and Aaron weren’t so familiar that they couldn’t talk to each other.
Seeing Elena bowing her head and not saying anything, Aaron understood, grinned, smiled and put the gears on the gas pedal, “I was right, you guys are really destined to be together, let’s go, I’ll take you back, even if you don’t apologize, you have to coax him, men sometimes need to be coaxed, especially when they are aggrieved.”
“I know, then let’s go straight to the office.” Elena whispered.
Since she knew that Fred really had her in his heart, it was necessary for her to conceal it and contradict it again, as a reward for him, she would give him two heavenly surprises.
That way, on the babies’ fifth birthday, they could have a family reunion and Fred would be able to see his two sons.
“Elena, have you figured out how to coax the oldest?” Aaron asked Elena as the car entered the city and it would be another twenty minutes to the office.
“I don’t know how to coax, but I’ll give him an unexpected surprise.” Elena said sweetly.
Aaron whistled, “Okay, so let’s say up front that when you have your wedding, you have to wrap me up with an extra large matchmaker gift.”
Elena was genuinely grateful and said, “Well, thank you Aaron.”
Elena wanted to go up alone, but Aaron insisted on accompanying her, saying he wanted to see Fred’s wimpiness.
“Elena, later I will be outside, you remember to leave the door a little slit, rare opportunity to see the boss’s silly look, I can not miss it.” Aaron followed Elena to the president’s office, and when he passed by the assistant’s room and saw Li Ze inside, Aaron tugged Elena and stretched his neck toward the door, “Is the president in his office?”
“Yes, Vice President, you’re back.” Glen nodded his head.
“Well, thanks, we’ll go ahead and find the president.” Aaron waved a snap of his fingers, said thanks, and continued on to the president’s office with Elena.
“Vice President, wait–” Glen, who was sitting in his office, saw Aaron and Elena heading in and seemed to remember something and said urgently.
“Aaron, you don’t have to accompany me, I can just go in by myself.” Looking at Fred’s office, Elena’s heartbeat suddenly accelerated. She couldn’t really say the words of apology, but she was the one who was at fault and should apologize.
Elena hesitated in front of the door, thinking whether to knock first, or just go in and give him a surprise.
Taking a deep breath, Elena pushed the door open violently and shouted inside, “Fred, I’m sorry.”
“Elena–”
The man’s voice and the woman’s voice came into Elena’s ears at the same time. Elena stood frozen in front of the door as if struck by lightning, while in the president’s office, Bess was hanging on Fred ambiguously, and the two seemed to have no intention of even covering up a bit.
“President, this document please sign.” Bess let go of Fred and pointed to the document on the table.
“Sorry, I went to the wrong room.” Elena’s mind went blank, and after a brief blankness in her brain, she bowed and turned around politely after apologizing once more.
Aaron watched as Elena not only didn’t go in, but instead turned around with a white face and headed his way.
“Elena, isn’t Fred in there?” Aaron Kai looked at Elena in confusion, not understanding what was wrong with her? Did she have some sudden illness?
Elena didn’t answer Aaron, just walked woodenly toward the door.
“Elena, what the hell ……” Aaron followed behind and chased after her, but a familiar voice came from behind.
“Vice President, you’re back too?”
Aaron looked at the beautiful woman coming from behind in a daze, stunned, “Didn’t you transfer away? How come you are at ……” Looking at Bess’s charming smile, electricity flashed in Aaron’s brain and he was instantly petrified.
“No way, no way, Fred couldn’t have done this,” Aaron muttered, turning around and looking incredulously at the open president’s office.
“Elena, wait.” Elena entered the elevator, hearing the shout behind her, and instinctively pressed the elevator button. It wasn’t until Bess walked in and called again that everything that had just happened, slowly drifted back into Elena’s mind.
“Elena, I heard you went home, why don’t you stay a few more days?” Bess chatted with Elena with a warmth she had never experienced before.
Elena wanted to tell herself that she had just misread the situation, but the impulsive words came out, “I had some family matters and I came back to submit my resignation.”
“So that’s it, do you need me to hand it in for you?” Bess was ‘enthusiastic’ and said.
“Thanks, no need, I’ve already handed it to the vice president.” Elena’s mind was in chaos. Fortunately, there was still an Aaron to serve as a shield, otherwise I was afraid that I would not be able to step down.
President’s Office
“Fred, what were you doing with Bess?” Aaron rushed straight into the president’s office and opened his mouth in a questioning tone.
“She brought me the documents to sign, Aaron, what kind of tone is that.” Fred raised his eyebrows in displeasure.
“Just to sign the papers? Elena looked as if her face was white as if she had seen a ‘ghost’, Fred, you ……”
“Enough, Aaron, we’ve known each other for how many years, do you think I’m that kind of person?” Fred loudly stopped Aaron’s speculation.
Yes, he was intentionally ambiguous with Bess, but so what, at least so far, he had done nothing wrong to Elena, and besides, women love to be imaginative, and he couldn’t help it.
“But Elena doesn’t look right, Fred, you know, on the way I had a hard time getting through to Elena, she came to apologize to you and there was a surprise, but she didn’t surprise you, it looks like you gave her a big scare instead.” Aaron sighed helplessly, although Fred repeatedly denied it, but he was sure that things were definitely not that simple.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
When Bess passed by him just now, she smiled so ambiguously, like a cat that had stolen something, and coupled with Elena’s look, he felt that he should take a fresh look at this good brother.
“Why didn’t you call me first before you came back?” Fred didn’t offer any explanation, but instead questioned Aaron.
“I said I’d surprise you. If I call you, it’s still a surprise, right?” Aaron said sullenly, “You are busy, I’ll go back and rest, and work tomorrow.”
He was a little worried about Elena, just now when she left, her face was as white as paper, really afraid that something might happen to her.
“Go ahead.” Fred just said a faint ‘go ahead’ and moved his eyes to the computer, as if he wasn’t anxious about Elena at all.
When he got to the door Aaron saw Fred like that, exasperated, and added, “The way Elena left just now was very worrying, aren’t you going to check?”
“This will be a temper tantrum, I will only add fuel to the fire if I look for her, maybe she is as nonsensical as you are, I have to go to her, she will be more nonsensical.” Fred thought for a moment and said, “Aaron, why don’t you go check it out for me, and if she’s really thinking about something, you can explain it to me.”
“I’ll help you explain, Fred, are you out of your mind, that’s your wife, not to mention that it’s your ambiguous with the little secretary that’s causing ……”
“Aaron, if you don’t want to go you shut up, what nonsense, all right, all right, you go back, I’ll go back to her tonight.” Fred said impatiently waving his hand at Aaron.
“Okay, you’re cool enough, so please, in the future, don’t call me about your wife, even if you’re a brother, you don’t replace everything.” Aaron huffed, flung the door open and left.
Fred did not have any consternation, know Aaron not a year or two, Aaron will have what reaction, he is more than clear. But he and Bess really didn’t do anything before, it was just that Bess took the opportunity to say that he had hair on his shoulder and he didn’t push it away, if this had to be explained to Elena, it would only get more and more complicated.
Aaron had said she had a surprise, but he didn’t know what kind of surprise it was. Fred couldn’t wait, but he hadn’t finished work yet, and leaving at this time would have an impact on his plans.
After Elena left the office, she was blown by the cold breeze, and suddenly she was quite awake.
She asked herself if she had made too much of a fuss over it. At least the two of them were fully clothed, and there was nothing more than their ambiguous positions.
Before she met Fred, she had even seen her fiancé and another woman tangling in their new bed, and at that time, she could calmly tell them to get lost, but now, just seeing Secretary Bess and Fred getting closer, she was so uncomfortable in her heart.
When she returned home, Elena opened the file and printed out a copy of the resignation letter inside. Whether what she saw before was true or not, she had lost her place and could no longer work with Fred in the same company.
The original intention was to surprise Fred and take him back to see the kids during spring break, but now, she thought, maybe that wasn’t necessary.
Whether there was an ambiguity or not, Bess’s return to the president’s office was certainly unusual. It had only been a week since she had been transferred, and in the blink of an eye, she had been transferred back, and it looked, rather, like a young couple having a falling out. Could there actually have been an affair between them long ago?
Elena’s heart ached for this thought. A few days ago Fred told her about the wedding, and now he’s flirting with other girls, but Aaron said he never looks good to women other than her, so she really hopes Aaron is coaxing her.
