Female Novel
Chapter 1052
He laughed sinisterly. "Why? I risked my life to save you. Don't you have any gratitude in yourheart? You can't even fulfill this simple request of mine?"
I didn't dare to look him in the eye. I threw out an excuse, "I can't just abruptly leave when I amalready employed by the Milton family-”
"You can go!"
Without waiting for me to finish, he pushed away and said with disappointment in his eyes, "Goback to Sebastian's villa. I won't force you into doing something if you're so reluctant. I still have mypride."
I was shocked for a moment, but the disappointment in his eyes made my heart ache fiercely. Iopened my mouth, but nothing came out.
After a moment of silence, I said softly, "I may not have much time in the afternoon and at night.However, I will come in the morning."
After that, I turned and hurried back to Sebastian's villa in a daze.
I didn't hear them outside so I assumed Naomi and Sebastian had gone back into the villa.
As soon as I entered the door, I said, "Naomi, you..."
Before I could say more, I witnessed a scene I definitely would've gladly not seen.
Naomi and Sebastian were kissing on the sofa.
If I hadn't appeared, they would've probably gotten to their climax.
When they heard me, Naomi suddenly pushed Sebastian away. Her face was as red as an apple.Sebastian raised his hand and brushed his hand over his face. "You two talk. I'll go to the companyfirst!"
The atmosphere was a little awkward. When Sebastian left, Naomi felt too embarrassed to look atme. She coughed out, "I'm sorry, I was too impulsive just now!"
Laughing, I walked over and sat down beside her. "It's human nature to be deeply in love."
She was still blushing. "Where did you go with Hendrix just now?"
"Next door!"
She nodded, and the awkwardness in the atmosphere eased a little. She looked at me and said,"You called my name just now. Did you need something?"
I shook my head. "It's fine!"
She nodded.
Maybe it was still too awkward. I stood up and said, "Well, l"m going upstairs to look at thosedocuments."
Escaping back to my room, I looked at the documents and tried to concentrate. But my thoughtswere too messy for me to focus.
Giving up, I threw aside the documents and walked to the balcony for some fresh air.novelbin
The balcony of our two houses was separated by a wall. As it turned out, Hendrix was leisurelyreading on the balcony.
When I saw him, I instinctively stepped back to return to my room. But he noticed my movements asif he had eyes on top of his head. He slowly put aside the book in his hand and looked at me withhis pair of jet-black eyes.
I tried to smile, "Mr. Roberts, what a coincidence!"
He looked down. "This is not a coincidence!"
I...
This guy really didn't know how to hold a conversation!
"Well, I won't bother your reading. I'll go back in first!"
"Will you avoid me for the rest of your life?"
His voice low and deep, stopped my retreat.
I fidgeted, a little embarrassed, but I still looked back at him and said, "You think too much. I'm notavoiding you. I really have something to do!"
"Most of the projects in Lancille Village need to be supervised by the person in charge, and RobertsGroup's project will be launched tomorrow. Linda is not familiar with all the details. There may bechaos at the scene!"
I couldn't understand the abrupt change in topic. I looked at him blankly and said, "Linda has alwaysbeen responsible for these projects. She has done better than me in many aspects. You havenothing to worry about!"
