Chapter 163

She came to apologize… Beau stared at her for a while. He couldn’t help but smile. “Let’s go to my office.” Eliza hesitated for a moment and nodded. “Okay.” After all, the conference room was where the meeting would take place. And there were huge French windows. Whoever stood in the corridor, their movements and expressions could be seen clearly. It was indeed not a good place for eating and chatting. Thinking of this, she stopped her feet which were about to enter, and stood at the door obediently, waiting for him to come out. Beau came out of the conference room with his tall and straight body. He naturally took the thermos in her hand and put them in his left hand, and his right hand held her hand. His big hand was broad and dry, bringing a reassuring temperature. His big hand completely wrapped around her small hand, as if he had always protected her tightly before. It made her heart beat faster. The two of them walked in the corridor hand in hand. Beau held the thermos in one hand and held her with the other. One of Eliza’s hands was held by him while the other one was restrained, not knowing where to rest at. This was the first time she had held hands with him in public. She was a little embarrassed, but in her heart, there was a kind of inexplicable sweetness. “Nervous?” His deep voice rang in her ears. Eliza instinctively nodded. “A little.” In the past, even her love affair with Jay had been buried underground. She had never openly held hands to show affcetions. “You just have to get used to it.” Beau holding her hand smiled. In order to follow her pace, he walked very slowly. “It’s also my first time.”

Eliza curled her lips and tried to ease her embarrassment as much as possible. “But I think you’re very skilled.” “I’m good at self-teaching.” There was a hint of amusement in his low voice. “Just like in bed. A teacher is not needed for this kind of thing.” Eliza’s face was completely red. After walking for a while, they met several employees who came back from lunch. The staff greeted them respectfully. “President, Mrs. President.” “Hmm.” Beau lightly nodded his head. Eliza also politely smiled at the employees.

“Hello, everyone.” They probably didn’t expect Eliza to give them such a response. Several employees smiled in surprise and brushed past them. “The president really likes his wife. We can actually see him showing off his love to her!” “I didn’t expect that Mrs. President is this beautiful and down to earth…”

“What a perfect match! A beautiful woman matches a handsome man…” The employees’ comments drifted into their ears. Eliza pursed her lips. She still couldn’t hold back the happiness that was rising from the corner of her lips. She silently held Beau’s hand. She was really ridiculous. Everyone could see Beau’s feelings for her, but she was misled by those two women and suspected him… As Beau walked, he glanced at the happy expression on her face from the corners of his eyes. He hooked his lips. If he was not wrong, the employees they met just now worked in the marketing department. It seemed that it was time to raise the salary of the employees from the marketing department… 10 Being held by Beau, Eliza walked very slowly. She even hoped that there was no end to this corridor so that she could always be held by him and be happy. But after all, the corridor still had an end. Soon, they came to the door of the office. Beau opened the door. Beau’s office was very, very spacious. He walked in and put the thermos on the table. Eliza hurriedly caught up and carefully showed the food inside. “I want to apologize to you today.” “So I made you something you like according to your taste.” Beau looked at her quietly with his bottomless eyes. Eliza felt a little embarrassed to be stared at. She lowered her head and said, “I’ve been busy these days. It seems that I haven’t cooked fish for you for a long time.” “Try and see if you like it or not. If you don’t like it… then let’s go out and eat.” “I won’t dislike it.”

Beau lifted his hand to rub her head and sat down beside her.

Eliza hurriedly handed the chopsticks over.

She looked like a submissive wife in the feudal society. Beau smiled helplessly. “I’m not used to seeing you being like this.” Eliza smiled sheepishly. “After all, I did something wrong… I should apologize nicely.”

“I shouldn’t…” Eliza took a deep breath. “I shouldn’t be drunk. I shouldn’t say that you don’t like me, and shouldn’t… listen to others’ provocations.” “I didn’t realize until later that I had never asked you about Chasity, and me being the substitute.” “I didn’t ask you and felt gloomy for no reason. I thought that you didn’t like me, and I even drank alcohol and made a fool of myself…” Her voice became softer and softer, finally as light as a mosquito’s. Beau helplessly rubbed her head and sighed. “Actually, I was wrong too.”

“I always feel that I have done everything I should do and treat you well and you can always feel my feelings for you.” “But I didn’t expect that you would really think that I didn’t like you just because I never express it.” “It’s not like that.” Eliza pursed her lips and bowed her head, telling him everything about Lucija and Joye misleading her together. Beau remained silent for a long time. After a long while, he curled his lips and said, “I think what you said is very reasonable.” Eliza raised her head to look at him.

Beau held his chopsticks and ate while indifferently curling his lips. “I have thought of it, too.” “Chasity is such a good person. Why did she be friends with them?” “It’s strange.” “After what happened that year, I investigated Chasity and visited many of Joye and Lucija’s classmates.” “Everyone told me about Chasity’s existence and her story.” “But when I asked them questions in detail, their answers were very different.” Beau closed his eyes. “And, whether it was a class group photo or a club group photo…”

“Chasity was not in the photos.” “Now, I don’t even know what Chasity looks like.” “She is like an invisible person, only existing in the mouths of others.” “I even suspected if Chasity really existed.” “But if she doesn’t exist, how can there be Braint and Demarion?” Eliza frowned. “Haven’t Lucija and Joye shown you her photos?” According to Joye and Lucija, Chasity was their best friend. However, since they were good friends, why didn’t they have her photos? Why didn’t Beau know what Chasity was like? “Lucija said that she would not let me know Chasity’s appearance because she was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to forget her.” His words made Eliza’s heart sink. She raised her head. “Then… if I die one day, will you also find it hard to forget me?” O Beau picked up his cup and took a sip. “I won’t.” Her heart instantly sank to the bottom of the valley. Eliza laughed dryly. Just as she was about to change the topic, she heard his deep voice. “If you die one day.” “I will die with you.” m
