Mr. Poker Face’s Sweetheart By Lee Dubois -
Chapter 99
Chapter 99
Giselle had her period on Friday, and she had been feeling unwell since the morning.
It affected her work status, and she sat in her seat when she arrived at the company and seldom left.
Seeing that Giselle’s face was paler than ever, a colleague asked her if there was something wrong with her body.
Giselle answered casually, just at this time Mickey passed by, and asked her worriedly, “Are you okay? Why don’t you ask for leave to go home and rest?”
Jenny, who heard Mickey’s concern, stared at Mickey and said in a sharp voice before Giselle answered, “What’s the matter? Isn’t it just menstruation? Don’t take it seriously! Just take some medicine and she’ll be fine!”
Giselle said lightly, “It’s really nothing, and I’m fine. No need to ask for leave.”
“Mickey, leave her alone. If she really was feeling unwell, she wouldn’t come to the company today… Besides, she didn’t take medicine though she had. Isn’t this intentional to make people feel sorry for her?”
If it was in the past, usually Mickey would indulge Jenny when she made such deliberate ridicule.
But today it seemed that something was wrong. Mickey refuted Jenny’s words, “Giselle’s on her period today. She’s not feeling well, and she’s not faking it. Besides, taking medicine doesn’t work for her…” And everyone couldn’t figure out what was wrong with Mr. Blake..
Jenny’s eyes almost popped out of her pupils, “Why do you care about her? Even if she’s not feeling well, she has her husband who will take care of her!”
“I am the department director of the company. If the employees‘ health affects their work, of course, I need to care about it.”
Jenny was annoyed, “You can care about anyone except her!”
Not caring about embarrassing Mickey in front of so many colleagues, Jenny asked angrily, “Are you still in love with Giselle, aren’t you?”
Mickey scolded angrily, “Who told you that! I just did it as a colleague…”
“That’s not acceptable to me either! You are my boyfriend now, whether she lives or dies has nothing to do with you…”
Mickey lost his patience, “Why are you so unreasonably troublesome?”
Jenny raised her eyebrows angrily, and her eyes were filled with resentment, “You scolded me for her… You’ve changed. You wouldn’t treat me like this.
before!”
Mickey wanted to refute, but he noticed the gossipy eyes of the colleagues around him as he was arguing with Jenny, so he took Jenny’s hand, “Enough, if you have anything to say, go to my office.”
“No! What are you afraid of? If you have something to say, say it here. I’m going to make it clear right here.”
Jenny pointed at Giselle, “Tell me honestly, has she seduced you again recently?”
“Nonsense! She hasn’t!”
“You defend Giselle again! You…”
Mickey covered Jenny’s mouth, muffled the rest of her complaints, and dragged her forcefully into his office.
The others looked at each other, exchanging blank looks and never expecting to see such a scene of them arguing in the company.
Mickey and Jenny had been so intimate and close to each other, displaying love and affection in Giselle’s presence, that they seemed eager to marry, have children and be together for life.
But how long had this just passed?
Chapter 99
Such a violent quarrel between them broke out unexpectedly….
Mickey’s sudden concern about Giselle also made many colleagues feel curious.
They believed that something was wrong.
These people also knew best that Mickey and Jenny picked on Giselle together a few days ago, wishing to drive Giselle away, which looked like they never wanted to see Giselle again.
However, Mickey suddenly cared for Giselle’s health today….
The worry in his tone made many people feel that his reaction was because he wanted to woo Giselle again….
Giselle pretended not to see the gossipy eyes of the surrounding people.
She would not be caught up in such entanglements stupidly, and she was not interested in what Mickey wanted to do next.
Whatever he wanted had nothing to do with her.
Hymes asked Giselle when it was almost noon: [What do you want to eat?]
Giselle listlessly replied: [Nothing in particular. I’ll eat whatever you cook. And if you don’t have time, I can order takeout by myself.]
[What’s wrong? No appetite?]
[Unwell]
Giselle was in a bad mood, so her reply was brief.
It was only then that Hymes knew that Giselle was on her period. Then Mr. Giles, the President of Pino Capital, immediately exited the message interface and searched the Internet for what to do when a girl was on her period.
Many answers were recorded by him one by one, and then he chose a feasible solution from them and started to implement it.
Leo, who was processing documents in his office, received a phone call from Hymes, “Go buy some painkillers.”
And it confused Leo why Mr. Giles needed that.
According to Hymes‘ request, he asked the secretary of the president’s office, and only then did he know Mr. Giles‘ purpose.
And he was misunderstood by the secretary of the president’s office, “Is your girlfriend on her period, Mr. Mint? So you want to buy her some
painkillers?”
Leo quickly shook his head, “No, not my girlfriend!”
“Then who is that for?”
The secretary of the president’s office asked curiously, “You didn’t buy painkillers for Mr. Giles, did you?”
“Or what?” Leo gave her an inexplicable look, and the secretary of the president’s office immediately understood,
“So it’s for Mrs. Giles!”
“Enough. Don’t spread the news around, and don’t forget the task given to you. Tell everyone in the company to keep their mouths shut.”
Anyone who dared to disclose the high–level information they knew would not be able to work in this industry in this life, and what was more, they would be hunted down regardless of what industry they were in.
The secretary of the president’s office was shocked, and immediately made a solemn promise, “Don’t worry, I will arrange to handle this matter well!”
This could be regarded as the highest–level secret within Pino Capital. Although the employees didn’t know why Mr. Giles issued such an order, Pino
Capital was the dream of countless people in the financial field.
So no one who got hired wanted to leave.
Naturally, the orders from above would be strictly followed, for they dare not irritate Mr. Giles, their mysterious president….
Giselle did not receive any reply from Hymes, sighing silently.
He didn’t think she was annoying, did he?
Was he tired of so many demands?
Or was he busy right now…
When feeling unwell, usually one couldn’t help thinking about things.
Just when Giselle was worrying and feeling even more unwell, an employee rushed in excitedly to replace her, “Giselle, your husband is here!”
Giselle blinked in surprise, suspecting that she had heard wrong, “What did you say?”
The colleague became even more excited. “Giselle, your husband has brought you lunch!”
Giselle finally realized that she had heard correctly, and just as she was about to get up, a tall, slender, handsome, and tough man in a dark blue shirt walked towards her.
