Fatal Love：CEO, please let me go

Adele walked to her desk and called back.

“Hello? Hello?”

“Adele from Yusuf Group’s Administrative Department, right? We met last time. Regarding the price you offered us last time, we have considered it again. There is still a possibility of cooperation. How about we arrange a time to meet and talk about it in detail?”

When Adele heard this, she was immediately delighted and agreed without thinking. “Alright, let’s make it today!”

After making an appointment with the other party, Adele immediately began to prepare the plan.

In the blink of an eye, it was afternoon. After preparing everything, Adele left the company directly to Mr. Edmundson’s company.

After waiting in the reception room for a while, Mr. Edmundson pushed the door open and came in. Adele immediately stood up and shook his hand. “Hello, Mr. Edmundson, I am Adele.”

“I know.” Mr. Edmundson grinned and reached out to hold Adele’s hand. His eyes quickly scanned her body.

Adele pulled her hand out and handed the proposal to him. “The price we can offer has already been sent to you. This time, I want to talk to you about the products in the gift box.”

“No hurry, no hurry.” He smiled and leaned against the sofa. “Ms. Wes, this should be the first time you do this kind of work, right?”

“How… how did you know?” Adele asked in surprise.

“This kind of holiday gift box should have been confirmed long ago if there was a need for it because factories also need time to make products. Moreover, during the holidays, we have too many orders to deal with. If you come to confirm it at this time, I am afraid you will have to wait!”

“What?” Adele was shocked. She had just received this task and had no experience. She had not considered the problem of time and working period at all!

“Then… then what should we do now?”

Adele suddenly had no idea. If she could not complete this job in time, she would be scolded by the entire Yusuf Group!

“Don’t worry!” Mr. Edmundson was much calmer. His eyes wandered around Adele. “I called you here today. There must be a way to help you solve this problem.”

“How?”

Adele had never encountered such a thing before. At this time, she was already panicking.

“As long as I say a word, I can help you cut the queue. This is not a big deal!”

“But, this also requires Ms. Wes to pay a small price.” He laughed and continued.

When Adele heard this, she subconsciously frowned and felt a little uneasy. “What price?”

The man suddenly straightened up and said softly with a smile, “As long as Ms. Wes is willing to have dinner together with me at night, this matter will be easy to deal with.”

Hearing the man in front of her say this, the corners of Adele’s mouth unconsciously twitched.

This man looked to be in his forties with the naked eye. From the moment she entered the door, he had kept looking at her. The last time they met, she didn’t pay attention, but this time she could clearly feel his wretchedness. He said that they would have a meal together. Who knew what he would do to her if she went!

Adele gritted her teeth and stared at him. She raised the wedding ring in her hand and said word by word, “I’m sorry, sir. I’m already married!”

As she spoke, she quickly packed up the documents on the table and quickly walked out.

Mr. Edmundson hurriedly stood up. “Ms. Wes, don’t go! I don’t mind. I’m married too! I liked you the last time I saw you…”

Hearing the man’s voice, Adele felt goosebumps all over her body. She hugged the documents and quickly fled.

Walking on the road, the sky was already a little dark. Adele suddenly felt extremely disappointed.

Today was really a terrible day. Not only was the work not going well, but she had also quarreled with Damon…

Biting her lip, she took out her mobile phone and called Mary, “Hello, Mary, you don’t have to cook for me today. I won’t go back. I will stay at home tonight.”

After giving the order, she stopped a taxi and directly told the address of her home. In less than half an hour, she arrived in the neighborhood she was familiar with.

As soon as she entered the gate of the community, Adele saw several women standing next to the flower bed not far away. Ms. Henderson was standing in the middle.

“I’m telling you, you haven’t seen my son-in-law. He is about 1. 8 meters tall and has a handsome appearance. He is also good to my daughter…”

“Is it true? Why don’t you bring him next time for us to see!”

“Yes, yes, I have heard you praise him every day. I have never seen him in person…”

“…”

Hearing these voices, Adele’s heart sank, and she suddenly felt her nose sour.

If Ms. Henderson and Professor Wes knew that she and Damon were not a real couple, they would definitely be sad.

Just as Ms. Henderson was about to speak, she glanced over and saw Adele. She couldn’t help but be stunned, “Adele? Why are you… ”

Adele quickly held back her tears, walked forward, and smiled at her.

“Why are you back? Where is Yus?” Ms. Henderson asked.

“I miss you. I came back to take a look.”

“Silly girl!” When Ms. Henderson saw Adele’s reddened eyes, she probably had guessed something. She did not say much and pulled Adele in the direction of their home.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

When they reached the corridor and there was no one around, Ms. Henderson could not help but ask, “What happened? Did you quarrel with Yus?”

“No. I really miss you and Dad.” Adele shook her head.

Seeing that she did not want to say more, Ms. Henderson did not continue to ask. She just nagged, “You are married, and you can’t be so willful in the future!”

After she had dinner with Ms. Henderson and Professor Wes, Adele returned to her room. Perhaps she was too tired after running for a day. She just lay down and soon fell asleep.

After an unknown period of time, in a daze, she felt uncomfortable all over, as if she was being stared at. She slowly opened her eyes and saw a figure in front of her.

She took a closer look and saw that it was actually Damon, who was sitting beside her bed!

Adele was stunned. She hurriedly rubbed her eyes and said in surprise, “Why are you here? Am I dreaming?”

As she spoke, she raised her hand without hesitation to pinch her arm. Before she could exert her strength, Damon had already reached out and grabbed her hand.

“I’m here to take you home,” Damon said in a serious tone.

Feeling the warmth of the man’s palm, Adele finally realized that this was not a dream!

“I… I won’t go!” She hurriedly pulled her hand out of his.

“Adele, you are my wife. If you don’t go home with me, who will you go home with?” Damon frowned and asked.
