Chapter 338
"When did you come?"
The familiar voice behind me was Harrison. I turned around and saw him walking slowly towards me from the elevator.
Just when I was about to speak, I was interrupted by a pure voice. She said, "I just called the company. I wanted to create a surprise." Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Don't be frightened." Harrison answered and then looked at me.
Because she had her back to Maisy, I couldn't see her expression. I could only see Harrison's expressionless face.
Obviously, the person who suffered the most at this time was undoubtedly me. Harrison was in contact with Maisy behind my back. He believed that no one would feel comfortable in my position. After all, the relationship between Maisy and me was not something that ordinary people could digest. But I didn't know why, but I couldn't find a reason to question him.
After staring at me for a while, Harrison finally asked, "Why don't you go to work?"
I thought of countless kinds of first words he said to me in my mind, but I never thought that he would ask me why I didn't go to work. "Miss Zeng is here, how can I leave her to work?"
Harrison took a deep look at me and then looked down at Maisy.
Before he could ask me again, I said, "I met Miss Zeng as soon as I got out of the elevator. I wanted to go straight to work, but Miss Zeng's words successfully left me behind."
"Really?" Maisy blinked innocently and asked, "I don't think I remember anything."
Harrison, who was standing in the same place, didn't say a word. He didn't speak for Maisy, nor did he ask me. I could probably guess what he was thinking. It was just a small matter, a small one, but I didn't think so in my heart.
I looked back at Maisy and asked with a puzzled look on my face, "Didn't you tell me just now? Did you ask him if he told me about the evening party?"
At the end of my words, I looked at Harrison. It was obvious that I was not only asking for innocence, but also seeking confirmation from Harrison.
"When he answered the phone in the car, he didn't tell me who called him. Now he let Maisy have a chance to deliberately target me in front of me. No matter what, it's Harrison's fault."
Maisy nodded with a sudden realization, and then looked at Harrison as if he didn't understand what I meant. "Brother Harrison, will you attend the banquet tonight?"
"I know you don't like too many people, so this time it's just a private party. There are not many people, and it won't be too grand." When Maisy said this, he deliberately looked down at me.
Of course, I knew what her eyes meant. She just wanted to tell me that this was a private banquet. Only a few people who were close to her could attend it, and I just didn't belong to those who were close to her, so I didn't want her to be shameless enough to attend it.
If it had been in the past, I would have rushed forward and argued without hesitation. After that, I might have quarreled with Harrison.
Because I felt that Harrison didn't respect me enough and didn't cherish me. He didn't give me any position in front of his friends, but I wouldn't do such things now. At least I couldn't do it in front of his past innocence.
It was simple for a person to suffer a loss once, but it was not simple to suffer one thing after another. It was stupid!
Harrison frowned. He was obviously displeased.
Just when I was despising him in my heart, I heard him say faintly, "Thank you for their invitation, but I don't have time to go there."
As soon as he finished speaking, he grabbed his arm and asked anxiously, "What can't I do?"
Harrison tilted his head and said to her, "I have something else to do."
His words were already very direct. Harrison meant to let Maisy put down his hand. However, at this moment, Maisy seemed to have gone mad, as if he had not listened to Harrison's words at all. He continued to grab his arm.
"Brother Harrison, you know that's not what I mean. It's just that she's back. We want to get together and have fun. Don't you want to..."
"Go back!" Harrison interrupted her without hesitation. "I still have something to do, so I can't accompany you."
Under his gaze, Maisy put down his hand and said nothing to refute. Then he watched Harrison turn around and leave.
I, who had been standing in the same place all this time, was like an invisible person. No one noticed me from beginning to end, and no one, including everyone, paid attention to me. However, what Maisy just said attracted my attention. Don't you want to be naked?
"The one who didn't finish his words, what does that mean?"
"Chelsea, how long are you going to stand there?"
I, who was lost in my thoughts, was startled by the voice. I calmed down and looked up to see Harrison, who was standing not far away and looking at me. There was a faint trace of displeasure on his face, which made me, who had not been ignored, in a bad mood.
I don't understand why Harrison is angry with me. Is it because I did something wrong?
Thinking of all kinds of discomfort in my heart, I glared at Harrison and turned to look at Maisy, who was still standing in front of me. I said softly, "Miss Zeng, are you all right? You see that Mr. Stewart is in a hurry to find me, so I'll leave first."
After that, I deliberately raised the corner of my mouth and gave her a smile as soon as I turned around.
The reason why I did this was very simple. I just didn't want to let him feel comfortable in his heart. It was not my style to let him go wherever he went.
I followed behind Harrison and left. As I walked, I could still feel the knife- like look behind me never leaving me. That look was definitely pure.
Walking to the fork of the road, I chose the office location without any hesitation. As soon as I turned around, I heard Harrison say, "Follow me to the office. I have something to tell you."
I stopped, turned my back to him, and sneered. Then I replied, "It's working hours. Don't you remember, Mr. Stewart?"
"And then?"
"Then I should work hard when I'm working. I'm tangled with Mr. Stewart when he goes to work. It's inevitable that people will think that I'm living on you." I looked at Harrison, who was two or three
steps away from me. I tried my best not to be angry or question him.
All these years of contact with different people, as well as working experience, made me understand one thing, which was that men would not easily admit their mistakes. On the contrary, it was possible for them to blame these problems on women.
"The reason why I am doing this now is that I don't want Harrison to blame me for the problem. Whether he goes to the private party or not is his business. It can’t have anything to do with me."
Harrison's face was tight, and the possibility of erupting at any time. I also kept encouraging myself in my heart, so that I could not back down. But at this moment, Harrison actually smiled. "Chelsea, when did you learn this trick?"
