The Undefined Love

Chapter 152

"Hey, Erica. It"s got all past evening, but still I haven"t recieved the final briefing file to me. I have asked you to send it in the second half of the morning then why haven"t I got it yet. Is there a problem?", Lifen asked firmly but her voice never went devoid of warmth.

"Yes, Boss. Early in the morning, there were some problems but it"s all sorted and Ruo has already left for your place. The file will soon be reaching you", Erica informed while unlocking her apartment"s door.

"Okay, then have you reached home safely. Do take abundant of rest. You have been working really hard with me. And again from the next week we have to resume it again, so take rest as much as you can", she said with much concern like advising her own little sister.

"Awww, So warm. Boss, really thank you for being so caring for me. I will take rest properly and please let me me if I can help you in these few days. I love to accompany you", Erica said with admiration.

With that they disconnected the call and Lifen looked at the wall clock which presented as 6:30 p.m.

The whole day Deming has trapped her with her words. She didn"t even have any words to retaliate them anymore. She has accepted her defeat. It seems the man has come with a sole intention to irritate her to the core.

But the irritation she was showing outside was fake to some extent. She was irritated by the words tricks he was playing and the way he was acting as a spoiled kid but still she making her heart feel lighter.

The whole day she has left him in the bedroom while she was busy in the living room. For some reasons, he didn"t came out of the room. Periodically she would go in to check his temperature and he would again begin his provocation.

Thinking of all this, a smile came to her lips, without her noticing. And then she heard strong steady footsteps from behind. She turned to look at him.

He has already changed the bathrobe into a casual grey V-neck sweats.h.i.+rt and a pair of black joggers, after one of his employee came to deliver his clothes in the morning.

He was looking so fresh even when he is weak, down with fever.

Lifen didn"t realise that she was bluntly ogling him. "Am I up to your choice? Keep me then. For Forever", his sudden gentle but seductive voice brought her back from her trance.

"In your dreams", she cut his words and started changing the channels on the television.

Deming lips curled up in a smile as he came forward to sit close beside her. He was about to sit when suddenly the door bell rang.

Lifen was about to get up to open the door but Deming walked forward to open it. It was not that late in the evening to restrict people visiting but he was kind of curious at who the person has come this late.

As he opened the door, he was greeted by a young British accent man, who was having a quite stunning looks but he kind of a little young. He was dressed a little casually with a black jacket hanging on his shoulders.

"Yes, How may I help you?", Deming asked.

The man was a little confused as if he was lost. He looked at his sideways, then again checked the house number in confusion.

Then asked politely, "Sir, may I know if this is Wing Four of this residential property?".

His lips twitched slightly but he nodded to his words.

"Sir, I am looking for Ms....", he was about to complete his words when suddenly a soft familiar voice interrupted him.

"Ruo, you are here. Come inside. I was waiting for you", she said from behind Deming.

Deming s.h.i.+fted a little to turned to look behind. Seems like she was quite familiar with this guy. In these two years, did she mad a goal to collect good looking guys around her to give his a tough compet.i.tion.

Ruo was a little astounded with the presence of a man in his boss"s home but again shrugged it off by reminding himself that it boss"s personal lifestyle and he has no position poke his nose in it.

"Boss!", he greeted her as he made his way inside the house.

Lifen made him sit a bit as she has some matters to discuss with him too. All this while, she didn"t noticed Deming sending daggers at Ruo.

"Make yourself comfortable. I will bring you a cup of hot coffee. It"s quite cold outside", she said as she headed to the kitchen.

Deming too made himself comfortable as he wanted to know more. He clearly heard him call her "Boss", which means he is one of the employee working with her at the same place. That means he too worked under Yang Enterprises.

"So...you work at the same place, with her. Your work must be quite intresting", he was a bit unknown to the way to communicate to colleagues so it was a kind of little uncomfortable for him.

"Yes, she is our boss. We work under her", Ruo nodded as he replied to his words.

He wanted to ask more but he decided not to. That would seem like he was spying on her and she might feel a little uncomfortable.

But that doesn"t mean he won"t be able to guess it. He can still make out from their conversation, so he remain deep rooted on his place.

When Lifen returned, she thought Deming would have returned to the room but here he was sitting. She never intended to hide her ident.i.ty from him, it"s just like he didn"t feel necessary to say it loud to him.

Now if he come to know about it, it will not affect her so she nonchalantly went to take her seat while handing the coffee mug to Ruo.
