Chapter 209: How Would He Feel?
Back to her room, when Florence was washing her face, she still felt a bit embarrassed when looking at
the skincare products given by Reynold.
It turned out that when he gave those things to her, he was hitting on her.
But she was so silly that she thought it was because he was a nice man.
She decided to ask him about the price of those things when meeting him next time and she would give
him back the money as soon as possible.
When Florence was in the bar, the hotel staff had already cleaned her room and changed the beddings.
Although she had a long day, when Florence was lying on the bed, she was still sleepless.
She pulled out the cell phone and browsed. Except for the messages from her friends, Ernest didn’t call
or send her a text message or a WeChat message.
And now it was past 2 AM.
He must have known that she escaped long ago.
However, he didn’t call her or try to contact her.
Staring at the clean desktop of her cell phone, Florence was in a daze. She couldn’t imagine Ernest’s
attitude towards this incident ... would he be angry or would he not care at all?
He didn’t contact her, so she thought perhaps he didn’t care.
Although he wanted to marry her, as an arrogant man, he would felt humiliated because she stood him
up.
Florence thought probably he was angry and even had given up on her.
After she went back in half a month, maybe Ernest would call off the marriage with her.
That was the result that Florence had expected. However, as long as she thought about that result, she
felt so stressed and hard to breathe as if there was a heavy stone pressing on her heart.
...
Since she was bothered, Florence didn’t have a good sleep at night. She still looked a little depressed
when getting up the next morning.
Fortunately, other coworkers almost stayed in the bar for a whole night, so none of them looked
energetic. Florence wasn’t different from them.
In the morning, everyone was napping and recovering. The first meeting after they had arrived in
Riverside City was held in the afternoon.
When Florence entered the meeting room, there were a lot of attendees already.
As soon as she found a seat to sit down, a few co-workers looked over at her.
The man called Steven spoke first while looking at Florence ambiguously, “Florence, you didn’te
back after going to the restroom. Where have you been?”
Florence was taken aback. She didn’t expect that they still remembered her whereaboutsst night and
that she didn’t go back to the booth after going to the restroom.
Didn’t they focus on drinkingst night? Why did they remember everything so clearly?
At the thought that she escaped with Reynoldst night, Florence felt a bit guilty.
“I was drunkst night, so I came back to sleep.”
“Onlying back to sleep?” Steven questioned again in disbelief.
Another man next to him also echoed, “Reynold also left with you togetherst night, Florence. Reynold
didn’t go back. You two left together, didn’t you?”
Florence was rendered speechless. They did leave together.
However, if she answered them honestly as they asked in such an awkward way, it would sound quite
weird.
However, those men didn’t intend to let go of Florence. Several of them raised an uproar.
“You left with Reynold together, didn’t you? You two... Did you...”
They didn’t finish their words, but their teasing and smirking faces mislead others to think in a certain
way.
Unluckily, those kinds of matter almost happened to Florence and Reynoldst night.
Under such gazes, Florence felt more guilty. She felt her cheeks heated, blushed.
She retorted in a panic, “Nothing happened. Don’t talk nonsense.”
Those men saw Florence’s reaction, truly getting their kicks.
“Oops! We didn’t talk any nonsense just now. Florence, you are blushed. Did you and Reynold truly...”
Those men were about to say something more earthshaking, making Florence depressed and have a
migraine.
Flustered, she was considering how to perfectly report them. A man’s clean and pleasant voice was
heard right then.
“I saw Florence was drunkst night, so I sent her to the hotel. What now? Can’t I take care of a new
co-worker?”
Reynold, wearing a dark blue suit and taking a folder, walked in with a solemn face.
Those men were surprised to see him.
Then Steven smiled and teased, “Reynold, we were just kidding. Why are you so serious?”
“No kidding during the office hour.”
Reynold put the folder on the desk with a solemn face, his strength just right. However, the sound that
the folder made when hitting the desk was a kind of warning.
Those men shut up and restrain themselves immediately. They sat back down on their own seats
quietly.
The meeting room quieted down. Florence finally heaved a sigh of relief, looking gratefully at Reynold.
This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
He was sitting on the host’s seat seriously. His fair and slender fingers opened the folder in front of him.
He looked serious and conscientious with nothing else in his eyes.
His look was totally different from that in yesterday as if they were two different men.
Florence was a bit stunned. Recalling that Reynold wanted to friend with her from now on, she
wondered if he said that to ease the awkwardnessst night.
Today he looked so solemn and distant, Florence guessed that he wanted to distance himself from her
and wouldn’t be her friend anymore.
Florence couldn’t tell how she felt right now, just a little ufortable.
Right then, Steven, who was sitting next to Florence, secretly bent over and approached Florence.
He whispered, “Florence, do you feel that Reynold was apletely different man from he wasst
night? Please don’t mind it. I’ve been working with him for a long time. That’s who he is. In private, he
was gentle and elegant, quite easy-going, but during the work, he was quite serious. He doesn’t care
about the personal feelings nor allow jokes.”
Florence was a little stunned.
When she looked at Reynold again, her thoughts were different.
He was so serious now because of his care and enthusiasm for his current career. And the solemnness
on his face seemed to put a halo on him, making him more capable and charming.
Since Reynold hade, others attended soon arrived. The meeting began officially.
Both Erica and Reynold were doing the talk today, sharing the ns, tasks, and arrangements for this
period.
Reynold also gave them a brief of some professional content. Sitting there, he was speaking
confidently, looking extremely handsome.
The words that he said were all straight to the point. Florence wrote down almost every single word he
said.
After listening to his brief, she believed she had learned a lot.
No wonder he was a world-famous designer. He was way too professionalparing to her.
Florence looked at the confident Reynold. Once again, she felt that she made the right decision to
worship this idol.
After the meeting, on the second day, the two teams started to work together officially.
Reynold was quite an excellent man in terms of his career. His knowledge and experiences were much
better than others.
Florence had made huge progress by learning from him.
Reynold didn’t only teach her but also took her to watch the evolution of the fashion in Riverside City.
While they were watching, he asked her to learn the details.
Florence followed Reynold to walk around Riverside City for almost a whole day. Although her feet hurt,
she was still energetic and full of interest.
Reynold looked at Florence and smiled, “Are you tired?”
“Not really.” Florence shook her head.
“Shall we continue tomorrow?”
“Sure!” Florence agreed happily. Since Reynold could take her out and gave her private lessons alone,
it was a rare opportunity for her.
Reynold smiled and walked to his car.
When he reached his car and was about to open the door, a young and pretty girl trotted towards
him.
