Chapter 119
“Yeah, he just wouldn’t agree “I didn’t think I did anything wrong.
Kate just went silent, and our communication in the following days dwindled. Aside from necessary work communication, she acted as if I was invisible. Luckily, she was a workaholic and her personal feelings didn’t affect her work attitude. After the contract was successfully signed, we prepared to head back to Caladonia
Orlando praised both me and Linda, no, it’s Kate, but I didn’t feel at ease because I knew I would still be working with Kate, which made me uncomfortable.
But without any obvious conflicts, I wouldn’t stir the pot.
“Rena, take this document to the marketing department. The company is trying to experiment with live streaming marketing Coordinate with them and make sure our domestic dealers and abroad dealers are on the same page,” Orlando handed me a document.
I nodded and took the document to the marketing department
As soon as I arrived in the Marketing Department, I saw a few pretty young girls, all dolled up. I asked around and found out they were new live streamers hired by the department
Our company mainly produces cosmetics. Not only do we have our own brand, but we also have our own sales channels. After setting up nearly a hundred counters in Caladonia, Orlando was ready to expand further.
That was also the main goal of setting up the branch.
I handed the document to the marketing manager and was about to leave when I saw a familiar figure.
Bonnie was wearing an off–the–shoulder outfit, her usually straight hair now wavy and looking more charming. Her makeup was lighter than the other girls, but her features were exquisite, like a delicate jasmine flower
She saw me too and seemed a bit surprised.
“Trene, Bonnie came over and greeted me softly
“What are you doing here?” I was surprised and even began to suspect that she was really investigating me and getting close to me.
1 saw this company was hiring music live streamers. Since I majored in music, I thought I’d give it a try. It would be nice to earn some living expenses during my studies abroad, Bonnie bit her lip, her eyes full of expectation as she looked at me.
The company was probably hiring some talented live streamers to accumulate fans and then start selling products through live streaming, a very popular model now
I smiled faintly. “You’re really ambitious. Did Neil go bankrupt? Why are you working so hard?”
Mentioning Neil, Bonnie’s face changed a little, and her eyes flickered, “I don’t want him to think that I depend on him for everything. He did help me a lot with my study abroad. I can’t even depend on him for living expenses, right?”
“You don’t need to save him this money” I sincerely felt that Bonnie’s thinking was a bit naive, as if saving some money for a man could prove that she really wanted to live with him.
She was already scheming her way to Neil’s side, couldn’t she be a bit more generous?
Bonnie lowered her head.
“He should watch his news more often. It’s common for him to give women houses and cars. The money you’re saving now, don’t let it end up on other women in the end.” I said in an experienced tone, patted Bonnie on the shoulder, and left without looking back.
As for Bonnie’s reaction to my words, I didn’t care.
After a busy day, when it was finally time to get off work, I was starving and ready to drive home. At the company’s gate, I saw Bonnie getting on an electric bike.
The one riding the bike was her good friend Malinda.
Studying abroad with a good friend, working hard while leading a simple and happy life, the two of them riding an electric bike, their hair blowing in the wind, their laughter cheerful, what a beautiful picture.
I held back my hunger, fook a picture, and sent it directly to Russel.
Russel replied quickly. “What’s the purpose of this picture?”
I didn’t stop the car. When I got home, I quickly ordered takeout before replying to Russel, “Neil sponsored her to study abroad, and you’re one step behind That’s unavoidable. But didn’t you notice Bonnie doesn’t have a car? This is your chance to shine!
Russel, “You should tell Neil about it. This has nothing to do with me.”
I lied on the couch, looked at Russel’s reply and felt something was off. Did he still like Bonnie?
Three minutes later, Neil called, which startled me.
After I answered the phone, I heard his cold voice, “Did you see Bonnie?”
“Yeah, she’s working part–time as a live streamer, I sneered, “Neil, you must like this kind of woman who is self–reliant and shines in difficulties, right? Ah, such a strong woman, you should give her a home”
“Trene, be serious!” Neil was obviously angry
“You’re the one who called me, I retorted impatiently, “you better get your woman a car. I’m afraid if I see her on the side of the road in a heavy rain one day, I’ll struggle with whether to take her in my car!”
Neil was so angry that he didn’t say anything for a while, and finally said, “Alright, right away”
After hanging up, I chuckled, then quickly opened WhatsApp to criticize Russel, Russel, are you dumb? I’ve created so many opportunities for you. Have you seized any of them? You say you’ll bravely pursue, but do you really understand a woman’s heart? I can’t stand it. If you snitch to Neil again, I’ll yell at you in front of your hospital
Russel was typing on the other side, and after a while, he sent a message, I’m waiting for you”
I suddenly felt that he deserved to lose in my past life If I were Bonnie, I would choose Neil too.
Just as I was thinking about how to reply, the doorbell rang
I glanced through the peephole, and oh my god, I was shocked by the person outside.
Why is it Simmons Wallace?!
I had no choice but to open the door, ‘Simmons, how come you….
“I’m back to work, Stella gave me your address and asked me to bring you a gift. She didn’t have time to give it to you on her wedding day.” Simmons pulled out a beautifully packaged box and said with a smile
Stella’s having such a strong pregnancy reaction, but she still had the energy to worry about my and her brother’s affairs…
I couldn’t turn him away, so I just said, “Thanks, come on in and have a seat.”
Simmons looked a bit apologetic, “Did I interrupt you?”
“No, no, come in and have a seat!” It’s not like I could tell him he was bothering me. I understand where Simmons was coming from and he hadn’t overstepped any boundaries, so I couldn’t be too harsh.
My phone lit up with a text from Stella, “Sweetheart, my brother got rid of all the houses there when he went back home. Thave to find a place to stay temporarily this time Can he stay at your place for a few days? You gotta help me out with this, or I’ll burst into tears. I’m serious, I will”
I laughed and replied. “You expect us to live together? That’s a bit much, don’t you think?”
Stella texted back, “Your place has two rooms and a living room, right? Don’t worry, my brother won’t just freeload. He can cook, do laundry, and as soon as he finds a place, he’ll be out of your hair!”
