Chapter 224 Affectionately


    As we enter the lift, I look at Steven and say gratefully, “Thanks for your help.”


    “You are my girlfriend, what’s there to thank?” Steven looks up at the camera and smiles at me.


    He presses the button for the lift.


    He leads me to his office, closes the door, and says, “The woman in the office love to gossip. The news


    of you being my girlfriend will quickly leak out. Everyone knows the strength of the Song Group. By


    then, what Whitney said about you will die off naturally. So, you should just pretend that you are my


    girlfriend during this period.”


    I look at him dumbfounded and know that this is a good approach but is that the right thing to do?


    I am already beyond redemption and do not want to implicate Steven. I’m sure he will receive a lot of


    pressure from his family. He has already helped me a lot and I don’t wish that he suffers for my sake.


    “No, you have already helped me a lot today. You don’t have to make such a big sacrifice for me.” I


    shake my head at Steven and force a smile.


    Steven looks at me and suddenly turns solemn. At that moment, I feel that he might have something to


    tell me. But once these words are said, perhaps things will get tricky between him and me.


    But in the end, Steven simply raises his eyebrows and says, “It’s not a bad thing for me as well. You


    should know that I’m hounded by women every day. We’ll take it as helping each other out. Okay, let’s


    not drag this further, unless you know of a better way.”


    Steven ended this topic with ease. Indeed, I don’t have a reason to refuse. I can only y out this act


    with Steven for now.


    The incident at noon has spread. Now no one at thepany believes that I’m a mistress. I read the


    opinions online and a lot of people are starting to say that I am Steven’s girlfriend. The people who are


    supporting Whitney are starting to falter.


    May looks at me asionally with disdain. In the end, she submits her resignation and leaves the


    company.


    At the end of the day, Steven, a twenty four year old boyfriend even came specially to the office to pick


    me up. He ces his arm affectionately over my shoulders and whispers into my ear but loud enough


    for everyone in the office to hear.

    “I already said that you should just wait to be the wife of Director Song. Why must you tire


    yourself by working? My heart aches for you when I see you working. Come, honey, let’s go for a nice


    meal and after that, we’ll …”


    Steven doesn’t continue but looks at me affectionately as everyone knows the meaning of that.


    His tease inevitably causes me to blush in red. To observers, I seem coy.


    Outside of the office building, I see Noah standing anxiously at the entrance. He called me several


    times during the day but I never answer any of his calls because I really don’t know what should I say.


    Although he knows about my rtionship with Frances but I’m sure he feels awful after seeing the


    recent news.


    But I never expect him toe to look for me.


    Noah rushes towards me and says, “Jane, you finally appear. I couldn’t contact you for days and am


    worried sick. I came every day to yourpany and finally managed to see you.”


    Steven looks around at thepany staff walking past and says solemnly, “Let’s talk once we’re in the


    car.”
