Chapter 9
Be’s POV: I went home to pack up my things and was ready toplete the task in thepany for
the next six days. Two dayster, at noon, I suddenly received a call from Hank. “Hank, I‘m very busy
right now. I don‘t have time to chat with you.” I was a little agitated, Cactions work was far more
complicated than I had imagined. “I know you’re busy, so I don‘i dare to disturb you, but you have to eat.
I‘ve prepared your favorite seafood fried rice for you. Come down and take it,” Hank said. Thest time
we took the dinner, we added social ounts to each other. We talked very happily. Many things were
very tacit, so we always kept in touch. When I heard that he wanted to bring me seafood fried rice, I was
very touched. These days, I asked my colleagues to bring some fast food back. I didn‘t expect that Hank
still remembered that I liked
seafood fried rice. Looking at my watch, I thought, “I should be back soon.” So I replied to Hank, “Wait a
minute, I can go down.” As soon as I got out of the building, I saw Hank holding one box in his hand and
smiling at me.
“Although work is important, health is more important. Don‘t be tired.” Hank‘s voice was very gentle.
“I see.” My eyes were a little sore. I‘ve been living in thepany for several days, but no one cares
about me so much. “Bring it up and eat it.” Hank stuffed the food into my hand.
I turned to look at a row of chairs not far away for pedestrians to rest. I pointed there and said with a
smile, “There are still a few minutes before work. Why don‘t you go there with me?”
“Okay,” Hank replied with a smile.
I ate the fried rice. On the one hand, I was really hungry. This fried rice was really delicious.
On the other hand, I have to seize the time to eat and continue to work. I ate and couldn‘t help saying,
“Well, it‘s delicious!” “Eat slowly, be careful not to choke...” “Cough cough...”
Before Hank could finish his sentence, I choked and bent down to cough.
While I was feeling very ufortable, I could feel that Hank was patting my back. When I felt a little
better, he handed me a ss of water. “Drink some water!” Hank’s actions were very gentle. I’m very
grateful to him. I took a swig of water and caressed my chest. “It‘s lucky that I didn‘t choke myself to
death!”
As soon as I finished speaking, I looked up and saw a man in a ck suit not far away.
The man’s temperament was cold, and his hands were in his pockets.
I could see that he is looking at me. I suddenly became nervous But the man did nothing then turned and
left.
I couldn‘t help but say, “Damn it, why can I see that man no matter where I am?” “Do you know that
person?” Hank asked.
Yes! I replied. “Who is he?” Hank asked curiously. “the capitalist who exploited me,” I replied.
Your boss?” Hank raised his eyebrows. I nodded, looked down at my watch, and got up. “I have to go
back to work.” After taking a few steps, I suddenly turned to Hank and said, “Thank you for your seafood
meal.” After that, I continued to walk to the office. At this time, the elevator was very busy. I stood among
a bunch of people, waiting for the elevator. Suddenly, I heard a familiar man‘s voice.
“No wonder there will be a mistake at work. Are all the female employees in your finance department
dating men at the same time as you are doing?” I looked up and saw that it was Herbert standing in front
of me.
There was a hint of mockery in Herbert‘s words just now.
But I couldn‘t find any words to refute it. I was indeed with Hank just now. Although there‘s no ambiguous
rtionship between me and Hank.
I don‘t think I should exin it to Herbert.
After a moment of silence, I said, “Mr. Wharton, I only represent myself. Please don‘t implicate the others
in our department!” Herbert said coldly, “I think you don‘t have to waste your effort. You can‘tplete
the n before Monday.”

His indifference and disdain annoyed me. I only felt that my chest was full of gas. I turned around and
walked to the safe exit in my high heels. I would rather climb the stairs than take an elevator with the
detestable capitalist.
