May put down bli mobile phone, her whole being radiating incitement.
A singleton fortwentyâone years, was her romance Anally on the horizon?
She hopped out of bed to get ready, unintentionally walong Marguente, who was still in bed.
beibits having a dreamless night, Marguentda head was heavy and her body weak.
ey? Why are you up say?â
Marguerite proppant herself up to look at Miley, who was sitting at the vanity applying makeup. Through the reflection in the mirror, she saw Mileyâs radiant smile.
âYouâre awake? Great, letâs have breakfastâ
Marguerile rubbed her temples, âDid you order takeout?â
Hearing this Mileyâs smile got even wider, âNo, a friend is bringing it over.â
Observing Mileyâs beaming face, Marguerite paused, âA guy?â
Miley blushed, âYesâ
âYouâre seeing someone, arenât you?â
âNothing is set in stone yet!â
Upon hearing this, Marquente rolled out of bed, sluggishly made her way to the bathroom to freshen up She then picked out a shirt from Mileyâs closet to wear âTm off to the officeâ
Miley turned around. âYouâre leaving? Stay for breakfast Heâll be here in ten minutes!â
Marquenle gave a light smile, âHeâs coming over for you, not me. I donât have the good fortune to enjoy his breakfastâ
Miley quickly got up and walked Marguente to the door, âWhy donât you take the day off? You donât look wellâ
âI have work at the office I have to get goingâ
Marguente put on her shoes and walked out the door She thought for a moment before deciding to give Miley a piece of advice, âKnow what you should and shouldnât do Donât end up like meâ
It took a while for Miley to understand what Marguerite was implying She playfully slapped Marguenteâs arm, âMargueriteâ Itâs just breakfast Look where your mind went Marguente gave a meaningful shrug, hailed a cab, and left.
Half an hour later, at the Winston Group Marguente took all the files on Polar Radiance perfume to Frederick in his office Truth be told, Mileyâs words last night had forced Marguerite to face her feelings. She had fallen for a man she shouldnât have. If she didnât want to fall deeper, she should stay away However, this man was her boss. She couldnât handle this big project alone, so she had to discuss it with him.
She was just professionally handling a situation with her boss, so she had to stay calm! She couldnât let him see her feelings.
Marguerite was mentally preparing herself as she pushed open the glass door to the office At that moment, Chuck was holding an invitationâlike envelope and reporting to Frederick Marguerite quietly stood in a comer and waited âMr Winston, today is the 20th anniversary of Grandeur Square Mall. They are holding a thank you banquet and have invited you. Will you attend?â
Fredenck was sitting in his office chair, his cold aura enveloping him, âGrandeur Square Mall broke the contract first and they still have the nerve to invite me? Toss âYes, Mr Winston Chuck followed his bossâs instructions and heartlessly threw the invitation into the trash can Hearing this, Marguente quickly walked over.
âWhy not go? Grandeur Square Mall did give our rental spot to Fragrance Finesse, but they havenât announced any new products. Everything is still uncertain, we still have a chanceâ
Frederick looked at her, his fingers interlaced, âTve always been the one giving chances, not receiving them. Donât even think about it!â
Ma gente tossed the files on his desk and came around, so flustered she didnât realize she had grabbed his hand âThe sales channel of LuxeScents International has always been Grandeur Square Mall if we choose a smaller mall it will lower our brandâs reputation and significantly affect our sales! Do you want to see Maurice surpass you?â
âThe Wuston froups industnes are leaders of all industry Maunce thinks he can surpass us with a small perfume company? Wishful thinking Fragrance Finesse is just his first move What about next tine? What will it be?â
Marguente professional remarks were beyond Frederickâs expectations it cermed he had underestimated her. If nurtured properly, her potential was limitless.
His gaze fell on Marguerites pale face, then down to her hand that was holding his Merguiente paused, quickly withdrawing her hand. However, Frederick grasped her hand.
Tarquit my affairs that important to you?â
