Chapter 622 Another Sex Dream
"This is my advice for you." Edward didn't want to talk more with Susan, in case they fought again. He'd been trying hard to fix their father-daughter relationship recently. He hadn't achieved much progress yet, but he could feel that Susan hated him less.
Susan hung up the phone. She understood her father though she didn't say it out. That was why she didn't give him a hard time.
Damn it! She'd stormed out of Manuel's office, but now she had to go back and talk to him again. Seriously, she felt deeply wronged. But when she thought of Henry, she bit her lips and told the driver, "Go back to the company."
The driver was speechless, not because it upset him that Susan had made him drive back and forth. Instead, he just wondered why Susan couldn't be back together with Manuel since she still cared so much about him.
Callie was shocked to see Susan back in the office and stared at her unbelievably.
Susan was a little embarrassed and cleared her throat, "I suddenly remember I haven't finished my work yet. I won't sleep with my work unfinished. So, I came back to get it done."
"Oh. OK..."
She dared not speak the truth. Although she knew Susan didn't have to finish any of her work since Manuel would clean up the mess for her if she couldn't finish it in time. Frankly speaking, Susan was stress- free on the job. She could do whatever she wished.
"Is Manuel still in the office?" Susan asked though she knew he was still there because Callie was there.
"Yes, Miss Phillips, do you want something from Mr Johnson?"
"Nah. Just checking." Denied Susan hastily.
Smiling secretly, she found Susan quite a lovely girl when she told those little lies. Then she went back to work.
Susan sat down in the chair and struggled for quite a while. She didn't give it a second thought before she came back and then found it hard to demean herself to talk to Manuel first. Anyway, they had a fight but she still had to ask him for a favour. Shit! As the darling daughter of Phillips Bank, she couldn't understand why she should do such things in their family business.
A moment later, Susan plucked up the courage to knock on the door. But no one answered it. So she opened the door and went straight in.
In the huge office, Susan saw Manuel resting there with his head on his office desk, asleep. She was surprised because she'd never seen Manuel sleeping in the office. He never did so no matter how late he worked up at night. It was just past 9 p. m. Was he too sleepy to carry on with his work?
All at once, Susan got soft. When she was ready to have a good fight with Manuel, she just couldn't get mad again. She tiptoed into the office, found a blanket in the restroom and put it gently on his shoulders. Manuel frowned slightly. Susan thought she'd wake him, but he just frowned and went back to sleep. Susan sighed with relief and turned around to leave after she tucked him in. Right before she got out of the office, she remembered she came back here especially to talk to him. It would be a goose chase if she just left like this.
She thought it over and decided to sit on the couch and wait for him to wake up. She guessed he would wake up any time soon. So, she was waiting on the sofa and playing games on her phone. Maybe she didn't sleep well these days or whatever. She wasn't sleepy at first since she'd also taken a nap in the beauty salon earlier, but she couldn't keep her eyes open after a while. Then she lay down on the couch and fell asleep.
She started dreaming, a sex dream again.
This time, everything in her dream seemed to be so real that Susan felt she could breathe his breath.
Susan opened her eyes abruptly and saw Manuel staring at her.
Susan was scared out and almost fell off the couch, "What are you doing here!"
She yelled and closed her legs unconsciously, in case she was caught having a sex dream.
"Time to wake up and leave," Manuel said with a straight face.
"I..." Not until then did Susan realize that she'd fallen asleep in Manuel's office, "Well, I just didn't want to wake you."
"It's late. Gotta go." Manuel said coldly and turned around to leave. He walked in front with his back to Susan and touched his lips lightly as if he was trying to wipe the trace on his lips.
Susan didn't know what had happened. With her heart racing, she wondered if Manuel had found out she was having an erotic dream. She must be mocked and humiliated if he got to know she wasn't sexually satisfied these days.
But she had a feeling that someone had kissed her lips. Maybe she was just too horny, she thought. She'd slept with Manuel only once, and she didn't think she was an erotic woman.
Susan managed to calm herself and got out of Manuel's office.
Out of the office, Manuel was telling something to Callie, who seemed to be on nerves.
Manuel glimpsed at Susan beside them and continued with their talk, "Have a good sleep tonight. You can come to work tomorrow afternoon. We'll have a business dinner tomorrow night. Make the time." "Yes, Mr Johnson."
After that, Manuel left. Susan caught up with him.
Callie watched them leaving in tandem. She happened to see Manuel kiss Susan in the office and thought she'd be fired for it. But Manuel just reminded her not to be a big mouth and gave her the work. She was just surprised that Manuel was into Susan.
In the elevator, Susan finally calmed down and remembered what she was back for, then she said, "Let Henry join your project team."
Manuel glanced at Susan. His look was cold in Susan's eyes.
"Henry is a capable man. He deserves a better chance to prove himself and he should hold an important position. I hope you can be professional and don't take it personally. I've talked to my father and he said as long as you agree..." Susan spoke again.
Susan kept talking endlessly but Manuel said nothing in response. Thus, she got raged and roared, "Are you listening? I said, let Henry join your project team."
