Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) -
Chapter 504
Chapter 504 Become Friends
The water wasn't very hot. The girl just wanted to pull a prank, but still, it caught Yelena by surprise, and she gasped.
Yelena looked at her slightly reddened finger. "What are you doing? Why'd you splash the water on me?" She's vindictive. "I didn't. You just weren't holding it well." The girl put on a pouty look. She was acting very differently from how she was earlier. "You're pushing the blame on me?" Yelena shot her a glare.
However, before she could say anything, a cold yet familiar voice came from behind her. "Didn't expect a troublemaker in my firm."
Yelena shot up and turned around. The voice belonged to Hank, who stood before her at the moment. He was wearing a suit, and he looked tired. Worried, Yelena said, "Hank, I—"
"What do you want?" There was not a hint of love in the man's eyes. There was only formality.
"Nothing. I'm just here to see you. I know I shouldn't have given you attitude, so I came to say sorry." She hung her head low and curled up a little. Every time she did something wrong, she would do the same thing and act like a child who did something wrong. Hank would forgive her every time. Well, not this time. All he did was look at her coldly.
"Done? Now, leave."
Yelena looked at him in disbelief. She noticed the distant look in his eyes, and it pained her. "Do you hate me that much?"
"No. I just don't want to see you."
Tears welled up in her eyes. "Please, don't be so distant. I'm sorry."
"Why do you think I should be nice to you?" Hank seemed to have lost all patience as he said, "You don't have to come to work anymore. I'll have someone pack your stuff and send it your way."
"I"
"Now, leave. Unless you have something else to do." He turned a little to look at her. "Just don't show up in front of me ever again."
Yelena felt something squeezing her heart. She saw Hank off and tried to say something, but not a single word came out of her mouth.
"Told you he wouldn't see you. You just had to do it."
The girl spared Yelena a look of pity. That was the first time she saw Hank being so harsh. He might be aloof, but he was always polite. Yet, he didn't even show any patience with Yelena. She's quite pitiful, I suppose.
Yelena wanted to cry, but she wouldn't do that in front of this girl and certainly not in front of the public.
"Alright, stop crying. Don't ever come again. He doesn't want to see you." She must feel awful right now. Out of pity, she gave Yelena some tissues.
Yelena took them and wiped her tears away before heaving a sigh. "I understand."
"Good. Stay out of his sight from now on, alright?"
"No. I mean, I know he doesn't want to see me now, so I'll come back some other day."
The girl felt like pulling the tissues away. "How stubborn can you get? Don't you see he doesn't like you? Why do you still go after him?"
"You only saw a part of him. You know he's a calm and rational man, right? To be able to make him lose his cool like this, I believe I'm the only one capable of doing so." And that means he cares about me. Otherwise, he wouldn't get mad.
"I'm impressed, in a sense. You're acting like a simp right now." The girl rolled her eyes. This time, she was starting to take Yelena's side. "Your look is quite decent, I'd say. And you have a nice voice. Why do you obsess over him?"
Yelena shook her head and took a sip of the water. "Because I know he likes me. He can't forget about me. I still have a chance, so I'm taking it."
"How do you know you have a chance?" Just then, another guest came in, and the girl ended their conversation. She went over to serve the guest, and while the guest was doing something else, she came back and said, "You should leave now if nothing else."
Yelena chuckled. "I know. By the way, what's your name?"
"Why do you ask? Are you planning to lodge a complaint?" The girl looked at Yelena cautiously. She didn't think they could be friends that easily. Not after the fight they had and the prank she pulled on Yelena just a while ago.
"Nah. I just think you're cute." She's prideful, but she's not evil. And I'll be coming to the firm a lot. She might be of use, Yelena thought.
"Summer."
Yelena looked at Summer for a moment. "That's a good name."
Summer put her hands on her hips. Smugly, she said, "Of course, my mom spent a lot of time picking the name, after all."
Oh, right. This guest is here for Mr. Damazio. Hurriedly, she whispered, "This client's here for Mr. Damazio. He might be coming to the lobby later. If he sees you here, it'd be trouble." Summer was a little
nervous.
"Trouble? Trouble for whom?" Yelena was confused.
"Us, of course." Summer rolled her eyes and dragged Yelena out. "You should leave now. If you want to court Mr. Damazio, come back at 3.00PM tomorrow. He's free at that time. You might be able to grab the chance to chat with him. Just don't tell him I told you. This is just a favor."
Yelena leaped in surprise and hugged Summer, kissing her on the cheek. "Thank you, Summer! I'll be back tomorrow."
