The office was silent for a while, no one spoke first.


    nca Roach took a deep breath, tapped her fingers on the table, and looked sideways at Shelly.


    “You can go if you’re okay, I can’t work with you here.”


    “I’m not leaving.” Shelly leaned back on the couch, her tone mocking, “I’m a customer, and you don’t even have a ss of water here?”


    “Fine, I’ll call my assistant to pour it for you, and please leave when you’re done.”


    nca Roach suppressed the anger in her heart and said with a fake smile and gritted teeth.


    Her hand had just touched the phone button next to her when the office door was suddenly opened and a man rushed in.


    “nca Roach, give me a ce to hide.”


    “Elizabeth?”


    The office was really busy today, three people hade in less than a morning, and there was no telling if there would be a fourth.


    nca Roach stopped moving and frowned at someone in a ze of glory, her tone puzzled.


    “Why are you here?”


    “It’s because of you! Find me a ce to hide.”


    Elizabeth Harris was about to say something else when she looked sideways and saw the person sitting on the sofa, frowned, and her tone was unkind.


    “What are you doing sitting here? Can’t you see she’s busy?”


    “Thisdy, but I was here first.” Shelly looked at her with a disdainful expression, “If you want to leave, you should leave.”


    “Fine.”


    Elizabeth Harris took a breather and propped herself up on the table next to her, her eyes examining.


    “Excuse me, are you done? Speak up if you’re not done.”


    “We’re done.” nca Roach interjected with a smile, “Just finished.”


    “Why don’t you leave now that you’ve finished? What, do you want to rub people’s water? You’re dressed in a brand name, and you’re still short of money? I don’t know, but I think you’re looking for trouble on purpose.”


    Shelly was dumbfounded by the dislike, her face turned blue and she gave Elizabeth Harris a vicious re.


    “I’ll remember you.”


    With those words, she stomped out of the office on her high heels, mming the door loudly.


    nca Roach watched the drama from the sidelines and couldn’t help butugh out loud.


    “Just get over it and stopughing.” Elizabeth Harris leaned against her desk and took several breaths, “You’re killing me.”


    “What’s wrong? Running fast and all that, and how angry you are.”


    “Last night I sent that person home after I left, and today he ended up blocking my house downstairs, trying to ask me who sent her back yesterday, I had no choice but to run out.”


    “What’s there to run for, you just tell him the truth.”


    Elizabeth Harris pouted, herplexion immediately clouded, her tone dry.N?velDrama.Org content.


    “No way! I’m not going to tell him and save him the trouble of always talking to someone else about how he ns to consummate his engagement with me.”


    “Isn’t that what you want.”


    nca Roach got up and poured water for her and handed it to her, somewhat in a serious tone.


    “In all the years you’ve been out of the country, Peter Murray really hasn’t had a single woman around, not even a singlece-up.”


    “So … so what.”


    Elizabeth Harris’s face changed, relying on a drink of water to hide the emotions tumbling in her eyes, still stubbornly said.


    “It’s his choice if he doesn’t look, none of my business, and besides he was after you before.”


    “It’s all in the past, isn’t his choice obvious enough now?”


    “I don’t know what his choice is, he can do whatever he likes.”


    Despite her words, Elizabeth Harris avoided nca Roach’s gaze, turned around, and sat down in the chair next to her.
