The weather was getting warmer as Christmas approached After she lost that opportunity, Alicia was worried every day. She did, however, gain some weight from eating delicious food with Tammy every day âIf | fail again this time, you can fire me,â Alicia said to Tammy Tammy looked at her phone as she followed Alicia to the elevator. She asked, without looking up, âHuh? Why?â
âBecause | feel like Iâve ruined your career. Nelly gave us such a great opportunity, but we lost it. Itâs such a shame!â
âWhy are you so worried? Iâm your boss, and Iâve said nothing about it Nobody is gonna fire you,â With a pout, Tammy replied know youâre not interested in making money, but...â Alicia had no idea how she should express her thoughts. So she could only keep them to herself, Many people became live streamers to make money. However, as a rich girl, youâre not short on cash and only play e-sports because you enjoy it, Tammy. You donât want to make money from it but | do! Also, |! want to have my own career Awhile later, Alicia and Tammy left the elevator together. As soon as they walked to the reception, Alicia put on a polite smile and said to the receptionist, âHello, Iâm Amberâs assistant. We have a meeting with Louise to talk about the keyboard ad.â
Hearing that, the receptionist appeared unsure of what to do. She glanced toward the office and said hesitantly, âPlease wait a moment. Iâll call her right now.â
551 You Stole Our Contract!
âAll right.â
âHello, Louise. Amberâs here.â The receptionist said after the call was answered. She then sighed and quickly hung up the phone. In an apologetic tone, she said to Tammy and Alicia, âSorry, ladies. Louise said that she has signed the contract with someone else.â
âWhat?! When did that happen? Louise texted me last night and asked me to bring Amber here to sign the contract today! What on earth is going on?â Alicia asked, surprised â| sincerely apologize for it. They had only signed the contract five minutes ago. Our president chose this KOL, who is also an e-
sports player Actually, Louise has no control over the situation.â
Alicia frowned, thinking she couldnât let this go. âWho is that person? Who could be as attractive and well-known as Amber?
Sheâs in the top ten for that game on the charts!â
âSorry. Although Amber is stunning, this commercial does not require her to take photographs. The point is that Amber is not as well-known as this player.â
âWho is it then?â
âDominic. Youâve probably heard of him.â
Hearing that, Alicia was shocked. She had heard of him because he was one of the most well-known e-sports players. Tammy was wearing headphones and playing a game at the time. When she felt Alicia poke her, she removed one of her headsets and asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
Alicia was about to say something when she noticed a boy leaving the office. It was a young boy dressed in a black trench coat.
As he walked, he slowly put on his sunglasses, like a movie star. And he walked past them, ignoring Aliciaâs stunned expression âIs that Dominic?â Alicia asked, turning to face the receptionist 551 You Stole Our Contract! âThatâs right,â the receptionist said, nodding Wide-eyed, Alicia, asked, âReally? But | thought he sounded like a tough guy. Why is he so...â
â| have no idea about that. Sorry.â The receptionist chipped in âIs he the one who stole our contractâ
The receptionist replied, âYes and no. Louise said she was glad you two came here. We will reimburse your travel expenses.â
âOkay,â Nodding, Alicia responded with an awkward smile Before she could say anything else, Tammy took Aliciaâs hand and ran Then she yelled, âYou donât have to pay me. Bye!â
Tilemail you my credit card number,â Alicia said, waving her hand âTammy, please wait for me. Why are you walking so quickly? Theyâll cover the cost of our taxi bills.â
âCome on, let me buy you lunch to celebrate,â Tammy said as she put on her headphones âFor what?â Puzzled, Alicia asked âFor the fact that you blew your second chance to sign me a contract.â
âIâm so sorry! You can fire me now, Tammy,â Alicia said âNobody is going to fire you!â
They waved at a cab approaching in the distance. However, another person stopped the car before getting to the two of them Alicia frowned and exclaimed angrily, âHey! We stopped the car first!â She then yanked on the car door and stopped that person The man froze, turned around, and removed his headset. He looked at Alicia, puzzled, and asked, âWhat?â
Alicia froze as soon as she saw the manâs face. âItâs you again?â she 551 You Stole Our Contract!
exclaimed. You stole our contract a few minutes ago! Why are you stealing our cab now? she thought âWhatâs the matter?â Dominic asked, perplexed Alicia became even more enraged. She pointed to the cab and said, âWe stopped this cab first! Do you have to do this?â
âIâm sorry, | didnât see you stop the car,â Dominic said as he froze âWhat? You want me to provide evidence, donât you? You just stole our contract, and now youâre stealing our taxi! Did you do it on purpose?â
Alicia shouted âYour contract? Who are you?â Dominic turned to face Alicia, then to Tammy behind her âSorry. My friend is having a bad day today. You can leave now,â Tammy said Hearing that, Alicia froze and even thought she had heard it wrong. In her mind, Tammy had always been the most indignant one whenever this situation happened. But she was acting strangely today âAre you all right?â Alicia asked, her gaze fixed on Tammy âWe can take another car,â Tammy said calmly. She then took a step back as if attempting to avoid Dominic âWait! Itâs rush hour, so itâs hard to get a cab. We can take this car together, if you donât mind?â Dominic asked âDo you know where weâre going?â Alicia asked âNo, but I can give you a ride.â
Alicia wanted to say something else, but Tammy was ready to get in the car âTammy!â Alicia shouted and thought to herself as she watched Tammy get into the back seat, What on earth is going on here? Why are you 551 You Stole Our Contract! behaving so strangely today, Tammy?
âWeâre going to the Central Avenue,â Tammy said to the driver after entering the cab Sitting in the passenger seat, Dominic looked at Tammy in the rearview mirror after hearing that. He assumed that Tammy was under the age of 18. At that time, she was dressed in a white down jacket with headphones around her neck. She was staring at her phone and didnât seem to want to talk to anyone Then Dominic asked, âWhat did you mean when you said | stole your contract just now? Were they originally planning to sign with you?â
Alicia gave him a stern look and said, âDidnât you just notice us? We came here today just to sign that damn contract.â
âAre you Amber?â
Hearing Dominiqueâs question, Tammy finally stopped staring at her phone and raised her head. Just when she was about to answer the question, Alicia asked warily before her, âHuh? How do you know that?â
âLouise just told me,â Dominic explained Tammy put her phone down and asked seriously, âDo you know me?â
âIâve seen your commentary live. | thought you did a good job.â
âThanks.â
âOf course! No one is better than Amber!â Alicia said After they arrived at their destination, Alicia asked before leaving the car, âHow much is it?â
âIâll pay for it,â Dominic said without hesitation Alicia had just been expecting him to say that. âThank you!â she
