“Richard, slow down. I can’t catch up with you…”Clara couldn’t run fast in her high heels and chased after Richard breathlessly. Seeing that Richard didn’t want to wait for her, she quickly shouted.Richard still didn’t stop, so Clara had to speed up. When she met Richard tonight, she decided to seize the opportunity no matter what.But she was wearing high heels, and she really couldn’t do it. Unluckily, she had just run two steps when her heel broke. With a cry of alarm, she fell to the ground.Hearing the sound, Richard stopped and looked back. He saw het fall to the ground. Her knees were bruised, and her eyes were filled with tears. She was looking at him pitifully.He sighed, walked back, and squatted down in front of her. “Why are you running so fast?”When Clara saw that he was willing to come over and care for her, she was secretly happy and pretended to be even more pitiful. Tears fell down her face. “I wanted to catch up with you. You walked so fast in front of me.”Her v
When Richard heard the sound, he turned around and saw her sitting on the ground with her face buried in her knees. Her shoulders twitched. It seemed that she was crying. He walked back and said, “Hey, what are you doing?” She did not speak and cried even louder. A couple who happened to pass by saw him and pointed at him. Richard was also embarrassed. He kicked Clara’s foot and said, “Okay. Okay. Stop crying. I’ll take you home. Okay?” “You can go. Let me die from coldness here alone.” she said angrily. Richard rolled his eyes and felt helpless. “Okay, then you can stay here for a night.” Clara vsobbed and said, “I’ll tell Hellen that you bullied me.” Richard’s mouth twitched. “How did I bully you?” “I don’t care. You’re bullying me anyway!” Clara cried. He wanted to leave several times. He wanted to leave her here alone but he still didn’t dare to do that. If Clara, this crazy woman, really went to complain to Hellen, then he would be finished. “So what do you want?” Richard
Richard opened his mouth and tried to persuade her to stay, but he couldn’t shout out. He slapped himself hard and scolded himself for being a fool. He was so careless that he didn’t know that he shall deal with the smell before he came back. “Richard, where’s your brain?” He thought. He was very upset, but there was nothing he could do. Now that hellen was obviously angry, it was useless for him to go in and explain. Instead, if he did that, it would be counterproductive. It seemed that only when helleny’s anger subsided tomorrow could he explain to her properly. But on the other hand, it’s not a bad thing. At least it meant that Hellen still cared about him, right? After taking a shower, he continued to live in the living room. He finally got the chance to go back to the room to sleep two days ago, but in less than a day, he was kicked out again. What a failure. Tonight, he lost sleep again. He didn’t fall asleep until after three o’clock in the night. The next day, he was slee
Elena immediately became envious and gave Duncan a thumbs -up. “Awesome! I heard you’re in the oil , petroleum and mine Industry now?” Duncan chuckled and couldn’t hide the pride on his facce. He said, “Sort of. I went to the Eliott Enterprise a while ago. This is our biggest petroleum and mine company in Harous City. A lot of popular and best engineer are propagandized by it.” Hearing Duncan’s words, Eley widened her eyes and said in shock, “Wow, Eliott Enterprise, that’s a huge listed company. Duncan, you’re so great as you can go in. But I heard that the requirements of the Elliott Enterprise are very high, and ordinary people can’t get in?” Wilson and Sandy his wife, as his parents, had a proud smile on their faces. The sense of superiority was not concealed. Duncan looked up and said. “For most people, the Eliott Enterprise threshold is indeed very high. Many top students can’t even get in although they want to. But for me, that’s easy. I asked someone for help and went str
Duncan was rendered speechless. He was not an eloquent person and he stammer ed when nervous. Now that he was too angry to refute, he began to stammer anxiously. “You, shut- shut up!” Wilson slammed his palm on the coffee table. “Richard! Who are you to say that to my son? You’re a loser who can’t even find a job!” Sandy also swore angrily, “You’re just a weak-kneed. You are jealous because my son works in the Eliott Enterprise but you are just a hopeless real estate agent. You envy him, so you maliciously slander him. You really suck!” The three of them went on the rampage and attacked Richard with all kinds of harsh words. However, Richard was not provoked at all, and even felt like laughing. Wilson complained to Elena unhappily, “Elena, take your son -in-law in control. He knows nothing but jealousy. You have to ask him to apologize to us for defaming Duncan!” Elena slapped Richard on the back of the head and demanded, “Richard, you waste of space, apologize to Duncan now."
65Under everyone’s expectant gaze, Duncan began to boast about the chairman of Elliott Enterprise Company. “Ahem!” Duncan sat up straight and coug hed twice. He began to say, “The chairman of Elliott Enterprise Company is tall and burly. He is handsome and imposing, with sharp eyebrows and extremely brilliant eyes. He is much more handsome than many male stars in the entertainment industry. If our chairman debuts as an idol, he must be a prince charming of all women in our country.” When Hellen heard this, her heart thumped. Thinking of the previous two encounters, she blushed involuntarily, revealing a shy expression. So the chairman is that handsome? Duncan found out her infatuation and teased her, “ Hellen, are you interested in the chairman? Huh.” Hellen immediately blushed with embarrassment and said hurriedly, “I’m not!” How couldn’t they realize that she was obviously infatuated with the chairman of Elliott Enterprise Company? This was reasonable. She was only in her twent
66After a while, Duncan and his family couldn’t stay any longer and left dejectedly. They were supposed to stay for lunch, but the minister’s call just now made them so embarrassed, especially Duncan. He was the most embarrassed one. Staying here for another second was a kind of torture! He couldn’t eat here at all, so he quickly found an excuse to slink away. After they left, Richard couldn’t help but laugh. Hellen had the same feeling. Elena said unhappily, “Is it funny? Although he was fired by Eliott Enterprise Company, he was positive and ambitious at least. He was much better than you. You actually became a real estate agent!"Richard was confused. Was it very embarrassing? He thought it was pretty good. At least he made money by working. He didn’t steal or rob anything. He was better than those who were sneaking around, right? “Mom, it’s not embarrassing for me to be a real estate agent. I gain money with my own hands.” Richard said unhappily. Elena said, “Oh, trash, how
67Richard didn’t know what Hellen was thinking. After lunch, he went to work. If he knew, he might blurt out that he was the chairman of Elliott Enterprise and what he could give her was beyond her wildest dreams. Now that he was the chairman of Elliott Enterprise, it would cause much trouble if he rode his electric scooter to work again, just like what happened last time. However, he didn’t buy a car, so he had to take a taxi to work. Before he got out of the taxi, the driver suddenly asked curiously, “buddy, you work in Eliott Enterprise?” “Yeah, why?” Richard said and nodded. “Nothing!” The driver was a young man in his twenties. After pulling over, he turned around and started a conversation. “ Elliott Enterprise is really good. It has many popular engineer and many of my friends are hellbent on getting to work there, but the bar is too high, and none of them can get in.” After a pause, the driver said with envy, “dude, you must see a lot of scientific every day, right?
