The Love Mark of the Werewolf - Chapter 32
Chapter 32: Serious Considerations
I wanted this awkward moment to end as soon as possible. I stood up and picked up the letter, it actually felt heavy in my hands.
After giving it some careful thought, I said, “I hope to select some people to form a temporary project team for the press conference. I’ll be in full command.”
“Of course.” He nodded admiringly. “Don’t worry, I’ll work overtime with you. As long as you’re still here, I’ll be here. You can look for me if you need anything.”
At that point, he hesitated for a moment. I had no idea whether it was just my imagination, but he smiled shyly. “You can come to my office if you want to. How about I move your things up immediately?”
.
“Oh, no, no way,” I immediately declined. Seeing the startled look on his face, I somehow felt that it was wrong of me to reject him so bluntly, so I quickly added, “I don’t think I’ll feel comfortable with that. But of course, I’ll need an office. Anywhere.”
“I can set one up for you on the 18th floor.”
“Except the 18th floor.”
“If you are closer to me, we can solve all problems quickly.”
“The elevator is pretty fast.”
“But…”
We suddenly heard a knock on the glass door that interrupted our conversation and we both looked out. The blond man from earlier was licking his lips and staring straight at me. The message in his eyes was that he wanted to cut me up and eat me.
I couldn’t help but shiver. Today wasn’t a good day at all. I was supposed to just get his signature, but now, I was here and even ran into a pervert.
Andrew stepped in front of me, blocking me away from the man. “Get out!”
It was soundproof here so the blond man definitely couldn’t hear Andrew, but he probably would have seen Andrew’s lips. His arrogant and devilish face suddenly became full of hatred, and he kicked the glass door hard.
I could clearly hear the sound of glass shattering! Could this kind of glass be broken with a kick? I immediately poked my head out from behind, trying to look for any cracks that might appear on the glass door.
Andrew turned around and raised his arm up, quickly moving his arm near my neck, causing me to fall back into the chair.
In that instant, I felt something fly out of Andrew’s body. It was somewhat like a current. I might have seen it wrongly. Maybe it was just the way his arm was leaning forward that made it seem like a current.
When I looked at the glass door again, the blond man had already left. I voiced my doubts. “I felt the glass shatter just now.”
“It looks fine.” Andrew’s arm didn’t move away. He just rested it on the desk behind me. His other hand rested on the back of my chair, and I was completely surrounded by him.
We were too close to each other, and I could feel his uneasiness. His eyes looked like a lost deer. “You are right. The 18th floor is not suitable for you. You were frightened just now. But I will make this place suitable for you within two weeks. I will make sure those who are not supposed to appear will not appear again.”
It’s like a promise. I became as uneasy as he was. We’d only met twice, why would he make such a promise?
Just in case he had any ideas about me, I said, “Thank you for the considerations, it’s just that I might be very busy from now on. I need to get my husband’s opinion first. If he doesn’t agree, then I can’t take on this project.”
He was puzzled, just as I had expected. “Your husband?”
“Yes. We held our wedding on 3rd October.”
He suddenly froze, his face turning red.
I didn’t understand what was wrong with him. Just as I was considering if I should ask him, he suddenly pulled his arms together and hugged me.
I was shocked and instantly wanted to push him away. However, he was faster than I had expected. Before I could push him away, he had already let go of me.
Yes, he quickly let go of me, only giving me a light hug in the process. Before my heart could ripple, it calmed down again.
He then walked over to the window, with his back facing me. He placed his hands on the edge of the window, his veins bulging and his voice slightly panicky, sounding like he was about to cry. “I’m sorry. I’m not feeling too well.”
“Do I need to call an ambulance?” This seemed like the same situation as last time. Could it be that his old habit was acting up again?
“Nope.” He seemed to have a lot to say, but he merely said that one word. He just covered his forehead and said, “You can go get busy.”
“Are you sure?”
“Go ahead. Call me if you need anything.”
Since he’d already said that, it wasn’t my place to ask any more questions. “Then I’ll get going.”
“Okay.”
I took the letter and walked out the glass door. When I closed the door and looked inside, he was still looking out the window.
I didn’t bother with him anymore. I turned around and got into the elevator, returning to the sixth floor.
I stepped out of the elevator and walked towards my small room. Everyone looked at me along the way.
The originally noisy office became extremely quiet because of my appearance.
Their gazes were very diverse. Some were shocked, some were afraid, some were disdainful, and some were envious.
If it were in the past, I would probably be happy for a consecutive few days for such an opportunity. I would even wake up from my dreams smiling. But now, I have no interest in such things.
