Mr. Poker Face’s Sweetheart By Lee Dubois
Chapter 44

Chapter 44

Hymes always looked fierce because of his deep browbones. But right now, he was smiling, and his eyes were full of gentleness. He was a bit uninhibited and frivolous.

Giselle instantly heard the violent beating sound of her own heart.

She hurriedly dodged Hymes‘ fingers and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Even though Giselle saw Hymes handsome face every day, at such a moment, she couldn’t help but be moved by his beauty.

Giselle didn’t know if there was anyone who could be indifferent to Hymes. Anyway, she didn’t seem to have such ability.

Naturally, Giselle wanted to run away so Hymes wouldn’t notice her abnormality.

She didn’t notice that Hymes‘ fingers froze mid–air due to her dodging movements.

Hymes lowered his eyes to hide the emotions in his eyes. The sadness had subsided instantly.

“Go ahead and eat.”

Hymes lowered his head. His voice was a little cold.

Giselle seemed to feel he misunderstood her reaction, but she didn’t have the guts to tell him why she had behaved like that.

She could only finish the meal in sad silence.

After dinner, Hymes kept working on the computer to deal with business. Giselle couldn’t replace a good time to communicate with him, so she went back upstairs silently.

At this time, she realized that she might be not good at communicating with her beloved ones.

The current relationship between her and Hymes was at a complicated stage. It seemed that she could go further, but she was ashamed to express her feelings.

She was afraid that Hymes wouldn’t respond to her feelings. She also feared that he only sought fun and didn’t take their relationship seriously.

Giselle had just been cheated on. She had PTSD from serious relationships. Giselle was now in such an embarrassing state. Even she was not sure what kind of relationship mode she was looking forward to.

Even during the live broadcast at night, Giselle was still in a low mood. Fortunately, she only needed to read the selected poems and articles loudly. She didn’t need to talk with her fans.

Giselle persisted till the end of the broadcast. She suddenly found a message from Xeno, who had not replied to the private message before.

[Feeling that you are not in a good mood today?]

[How do you know? Was there something wrong when I was streaming? If it affects you, you must bring it up, and I will correct it!]

Fans were her supporters. Without them, she couldn’t pay her bills. They decided if she could buy a new house. So, if there were something she didn’t do well, she would change it. If there weren’t, she would do better.

[No, I just feel a little depressed in your voice. So I want to ask, are you unhappy?]

II’m not unhappy. It’s just that some things confuse me.]

Xeno asked directly: [Is it related to your family?] /

Giselle was amazed at his keenness: [How do you know?]

[1 guess.]

Giselle thought for a while and replied. [It’s no big deal. I will adjust it myself.]

Xeno was unexpectedly aggressive: [Because of your husband?]

Giselle didn’t want to talk about her relationship with Hymes to an outsider, especially when the man was a stranger online whom she had never met.

Even if the reason for her unhappiness was indeed Hymes.

No. I’m going to bed. See you tomorrow night.]

Hastily exiting the live broadcast platform and turning off the phone, Giselle carefully heard the movement downstairs. Hymes should have fallen asleep.

In terms of living habits, Hymes was healthier than anyone Giselle had known before.

He almost never stayed up late at night. He went to bed at a fixed time, woke up on time in the morning, and had enough time to make breakfast for her.

Giselle wanted to talk to Hymes about today’s affairs, but she was afraid of disturbing his sleep. After thinking about it, she decided to give up.

In the early morning. Giselle didn’t see Hymes when she woke up for the first time after they were married.

There was already a ready breakfast on the table and a note written by Hymes.

[I have an early meeting in the company, so I will go to the office first. Remember to eat breakfast.]

The strong and resolute font was very similar to his temperament.

After staring at this note for a long time, Giselle lost all joy.

Yesterday, she got the news Jenny was punished. Giselle was in a highly great mood. Now, she was depressed.

Was Hymes also angry? He didn’t want to see her, so he left early in the morning, did he?

Giselle was too embarrassed to ask him. She could only guess and imagine the reasons.

Pino Capital.

Several people at the front desk gathered together and chatted. They looked solemn.

“Inform everyone to be cautious today!”

“I read from the chatting group that all departments must be careful today. Don’t make any mistakes…”

“The boss was quite happy yesterday. What happened today? Who offended him? Could it be that our company has at business problem?”

“I always feel that it has nothing to do with business…”

“Then it must be his wife!”

“It’s possible. The only reason I can imagine why the boss is upset today is that he had a fight with his wife!”

The lady at the front desk clasped her hands together, “I beg this mysterious proprietress. Please make up with our boss hurriedly! Otherwise, it will be us low–level employees who will suffer!”

Even if Hymes didn’t get angry with them, his aura of intimidation could make everyone in the company tremble, and act cautiously.

After the meeting. Hymes walked into his office. He threw all the documents on the table, turned around, and said coldly, “How is Jenny’s matter going on?”

“I have put pressure on the platform, and they will make a follow–up disposal plan today.”

Hymes stopped talking. After a long silence, he said, “Leo, Gigi is angry with me. What can I do to make her happy?”

“Boss, why did you make your wife angry?”

Hymes sharp thin lips were tightened. He looked awkward. After a long silence, he spoke quickly. “Am I too impatient? I should slow down and proceed step by step….

Leo asked cautiously, “Boss, can you describe Giselle’s reaction at that time?”

“She avoided my touch and then didn’t speak to me.”

“Boss, based on her reaction, I don’t think she was angry with you, but…”

Hymes couldn’t wait to ask, “But what?”

“Have you ever thought that Giselle might be shy?”

Hymes‘ calm and composed expression instantly shattered, and unbelievable joy flooded his eyes, “You mean…”

Leo nodded, “It should be.”

Yes! Hymes smiled happily. It turned out that he misunderstood….

Leo also let out a long sigh of relief. Everyone in the company would be relieved when they knew that the boss was not

angry anymore.

If the boss mood did not recover, everyone in the company would have a hard time today.

However, before Leo could leave happily, Hymes expression turned cold again after receiving a message.
