Chapter 11
Aaliyah’s entry into the Chaney Group’s Design Department went smoothly. She had strong work abilities and a gentle manner in dealing with people, which quickly allowed her to integrate into the team
However, Aaliyah fiddled with the flowers on the table and sighed with some distress.
The colleague next to Aaliyah heard her sigh and leaned over to ask, “Did someone send you flowers again? If I had someone who sent me flowers every day, I wouldn’t be sighing like you”
Aaliyah took out two roses and handed them over, saying, “I hope you can find someone soon too.”
Aaliyah’s worry
worry was not about receiving flowers from a suitor, but rather that this suitor was Alfredo, who is also her current boss, adding an extra layer to their relationship, which made Aaliyah a little concerned.
On one hand, she didn’t have the intention to date temporarily because of Calvin’s situation. On the other hand, she was also afraid of pursuing a relationship being discovered, and the relationship between a leader and a subordinate would be gossiped about by other employees.
“Aaliyah, can we have dinner together tonight? Aaliyah received another invitation from Alfredo
I received a message earlier that Aaliyah always declined directly.
But today, Aaliyah deleted the message refusing the chat box and replied, “Okay.”
alfredo over there immediately replied, and through the text, Aaliyah could tell Alfredo’s excitement.
“I booked a restaurant, how about foreign cuisine?”
“Sure.”
Aaliyah agreed to Alfredo’s invitation in order to take the opportunity to clarify their situation.
When Aaliyah arrived at the restaurant, Alfredo had already been there.
The waiter led Aaliyah to her seat, and Alfredo handed a bouquet of flowers to Aaliyah. “Today’s roses, you gave them to someone else, don’t you like
Aaliyah lowered her head and lightly sniffed the beautifully packaged jasmine.
“No, I really liked the flowers.”
Where was the person who was supposed to deliver the flowers?”
Aaliyah was asked a question and took a long time to respond.
“Alfredo, I felt like we weren’t compatible,”
Waliyah, I was serious about you.”
Aaliyali couldn’t answer Alfredo and just remained silent.
Alfredo, as a sultor, was qualified. He would bring fresh flowers and various gifts mixed with love letters every day.
Although he pursued it, he did not show any particular actions in the company.
The two of them remained silent, with only the sound of violin playing in the restaurant lingering in their ears
In the end, Alfredo broke the silence.
Aaliyah felt a bit frustrated in her heart, she didn’t eat much of the food, but instead drank quite a bit of alcohol, and was slightly intoxicated.
Alfredo took Aaliyah’s wine glass and whispered, “Don’t drink, you’ll get drunk later.
Perhaps due to drinking a little, Aaliyali suppressed the grievances in her heart and let them out while under the influence of alcohol.
had already forgotten about hirn, so why does my heart still ache?”
“How did the Treat you?”
Alfredo wondered who he was in Aalis
was in Aaliyah’s mouth
Aaliyah drank a little and mumbled, “It was my fault that I pestered him for so long, but I had already let go after I lost my memory”
“Why didn’t you listen to my explanation and instead pushed me into the water? Why did you believe it was my fault based solely on her one–sided
Aaliyah spoke while revealing the still somewhat grotesque burn scars that, although healing, were still visible,
Alfredo looked at the scar, his pupils uncontrollably dilated, and his fingers trembled as he touched Aaliyal’s scar.
- From Aaliyali’s few words, Alfredo could also inter roughly,
It is estimated that Aaliyah had encountered a scumbag before, which had deeply hurt her heart, leading her to reject his pursuit multiple times.
Alfredo’s eyes were filled with tenderness as he bent down and kissed Aaliyah’s sear
“Aaliyah, I made you completely forget about him and accept me.”
