Female NovelRoy held the cigarette between his fingers and extended his other hand, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
“Hello, Mrs. Evans!” Roy greeted earnestly.
Cecilia blushed. Roy seemed more nervous than she did.
She was impressed by his earnestness. She felt a mix of shyness and happiness the way Mark introduced her.
She hesitated for a moment without extending her hand immediately, which made Roy think his hands were too rough and dirty to shake hands with.
Roy quickly wiped his palms on his work clothes.
Cecilia rushed to clarify, “No, please. That’s not what I meant!”
Finally, she extended her slender, delicate hand, which Roy took, his own hand sweating from nervousness.
As an honest man, Roy scratched his head and said, “You’re so beautiful!”
Cecilia’s face turned even redder.
After tidying up the table, Mark stood up and said, “Roy has been working with me for a long time. He’s a really good guy. Well, let’s not keep Roy from his daughter’s birthday party. Let’s leave work!”Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
Cecilia felt a bit embarrassed for not bringing a gift for Roy’s daughter.
“Oh, no, please. You don’t have to.” Roy quickly waved his hand.
Mark took out his wallet and pulled out a stack of bills totaling five thousand dollars.
“Buy something for your beloved daughter.”
Roy hesitated for a moment but eventually accepted the money.
After Roy left, Mark returned to his work.
Cecilia bit her lower lip and approached him, complaining, “You tricked me into coming here.”
Cecilia’s tone carried a hint of playfulness.
As Mark signed his name, he said with a hint of helplessness, “I can finish my work after going through these documents.”
Cecilia approached Mark from behind.
He thought she was going to bother him, but instead, she gently rested her hand on his neck and asked, “Are you tired? If you are, we can skip shopping and go home for dinner.”
Mark’s heart softened as he looked at her.
So far, he hadn’t done much for her and had let her endure all the difficulties.
