Janet sniffled and said, "Mother*, Daniel molested me last evening and didn"t have the right at all to do what he did to me. He also threw me out of his office when I wanted to talk to him just to hurt me and make me feel ashamed of myself. I"m so embarra.s.sed now..." She continued to cry. (*TN: Here mother means sworn mother)
"What!? Daniel molested you and threw you out of his office? What a horrible man he is, I must help you teach him a lesson! Please wait, and don"t panic!" When Lola heard that her son molested Jane, she smiled with the corners of her mouth turned upwards. But she instantly felt very upset when she heard that Daniel had thrown Jane out of his office.
"Thank you. Mother. You"re the best!"
"Jane, just wait for my call!"
Lola called her son straight away after she spoke with Jane. Harry, who was with her, glanced at her with a confused look in his eyes.
Daniel stood in front of his office window, smoking a cigarette and looking at the company"s gates. Although it was far, and he could"t see anything clearly, he still looked down towards the gate.
When he heard the phone on his desk ringing, he instantly got a bad feeling. After he blew the last puff of smoke out from his mouth, he walked up to his office desk and answered it.
It was, indeed, his mother calling.
Instead of dealing with the problem in other possible ways, Jane could only just complain.
"Mother!"
"Daniel Si!" Daniel held his phone far away from his ear. It was the first time he had heard his mother to be so angry with him.
"Mother, what"s up?"
When hearing her son speak in a calm tone, Lola was even more angry. "How could you be so despicable? You didn"t have to be this way after you ill-treated Jane in the first place. You also even threw her out of your office. How dare you!? Can"t you keep your manner gentlemanly? Have you forgotten what I"ve taught you in all these years?
Jane was just as afraid of pain as your mother. She was so hurt that she could barely speak with me when she called earlier! How could you be so ruthless? Oh, my son." (*TN: Here mother means sworn mother. Daniel"s sworn mother is Ella Bo)
Daniel sneered when he heard his mother, thinking that Jane often practiced Taekwondo, and that being roughed up wasn"t that painful for her!
She was just pretending to be pitiful, trying to make others take pity o
Falling from n.o.bility, Zen Luo became a humble slave and served as a human punchbag for his former cousins. Inadvertently, he found a way to refine himself into a weapon and a legend started because of that. With a strong belief in never surrender, he strove for revenges and pursued big dreams. Warriors from various clans contended for hegemony and the world was stirred. Relying on the body that was comparable to a powerful weapon, Zen beat his numerous enemies on his way to the immortality. Would he succeed eventually?
sk staff with a confident smile on her face.
"Sorry. Would you please tell me what are you going to do there and who will you be meeting?" The front desk staff asked her politely. Here was the SL Group, thus non-staff members were not allowed to get in it.
Janet, now embarra.s.sed, scratched her head with a confused look on her face. "I"m the new employee of the company, and I need to go to the secretary department to report in for duty."
"OK. It is on the 21th floor. The elevator is over there." The front desk staff pointed the direction of the elevator for her. Janet thanked the staff and slowly walked to the elevator doors.
"Alas! Mom, now I"m wondering whether I am your own daughter or not. Why do you send me here to be controlled by Daniel?
Mom always thinks like this, forget it! But dad, why do you also believe that it is more appropriate for me to be working here? The holiday was just coming. And I haven"t enjoyed it at all. Poor me!"
Suddenly, a voice interrupted her. "Don"t stay here if you feel you are pitiful. That way you can also avoid being thrown out of my office."
Daniel pressed the open b.u.t.ton of the elevator next to him and calmly walked into it, ignoring the woman"s ferocious look.
The elevator"s door was opened from the outside, just before it was closed.
Janet furiously walked into it and stood straight in front of the man who was a head taller than her and also her boss. She spoke defiantly, "Daniel Si, I will stay here today. I know you don"t want me to work here, but I will stay here just to bother and annoy you!"
