Chapter 161 This Debt Will Be Settled Next Time
Looking at Adele’s expression, Damon finally reacted.
She couldn’t possibly think that he had some sort of shady relationship with Isabella, right?
Understanding the meaning behind her words, Damon actually felt that it was a bit funny. He never thought that she would actually feel injustice for Clara.
After a bit of shock, Damon slightly pursed the corners of her lips. The expression on her face didn’t change much, but her mood became a bit happier because of her reaction. Her actions were quite interesting.
A moment later, he asked indifferently, “Tell me, what did you come to find me for?”
Usually, when Adele saw him at the company, she would want to hide and leave. Now that she personally came to the office to look for him, there must be something.
However, Adele felt stifled in her heart. Obviously, she did not want to say anything more to him. She coldly threw out two words, “It’s fine.”
After that, she was about to leave. The moment she turned around, she moved her lips, and two unclear voices spilled out from her lips and teeth.
Although the voice was soft and vague, Damon could still hear it. A light flashed in his eyes, and his thin lips moved. “Stop.”
She actually dared to call him a jerk?
Damon was angry and laughed. Without a word, he stood up and walked toward her with his long legs.
Adele was shocked and secretly cried out.
Unexpectedly, she scolded him behind his back, and he actually heard it!
Moreover, she deliberately controlled the volume of her voice. Generally, she could not hear it. Was he still a normal person?
Adele naturally did not know that Damon’s facial sensitivity was beyond that of ordinary people. Not to mention a single sentence, even the slightest movement could be detected by him.
Adele paused in her steps, and her body stiffened. If she was caught by Damon like this, she was afraid that there would be no good outcome!
Thirty-six strategies, walking is the best plan!
She gritted her teeth and pretended not to hear anything. She continued to walk out.
However, just as she touched the door handle, she pulled the door open a crack. In the next second, there was a clear knuckle. A slender and fair hand reached over and closed the door. Then, he pushed her to the door.
Adele was shocked and almost cried out. When she looked up, she met the handsome face close to the man. Although there was no joy or anger in his calm expression, his expressionless face was still perfect.
“What are you doing?” she asked, forcing herself to calm down.
“Adele, what did you say just now?” Damon frowned and asked in a deep voice.
His arrogant jaw tightened a little, and he seemed to be gritting his teeth as he said, “Say it again.”
Looking at the man’s dark and deep eyes, Adele didn’t even dare to breathe. Her eyes fluttered, “I didn’t say anything…”
If she admitted it directly, she was afraid that Damon would let her die miserably!
On the surface, she denied it, but in her heart, she regretted it so much that it hit her face!
Where was it not good to scold him? As long as she got out of this door, it didn’t matter if she scolded him a thousand times or ten thousand times. However, she couldn’t help but blurt it out, and he even heard it. Wasn’t she tired of living?
Seeing the woman’s face immediately change, Damon felt even more amused. She was obviously afraid of him, but she had just scolded him. She was a typical fierce and cowardly person.
He reached out and pinched Adele’s chin. He used a little force to force her to look at him. His thin lips parted slightly. “Say what you just said again.”
At this time, how could Adele dare to say anything? He could only take a deep breath and pretend to be innocent, “I… didn’t say anything.”
Hearing this, Damon raised his eyebrows slightly. He raised his thumb and brushed past her red and soft lips. He deliberately leaned closer to her. “But I heard it clearly just now.”
The man’s clear and cold breath swept over. Adele’s heart beat faster. He did not dare to look at him, nor did he dare to answer half a word. His rough fingertips were raised and brushed past her lips, making her sensitive and trembling.
Damon’s gaze darkened and he asked unhurriedly, “You’re not going to say anything?”
Adele didn’t know how to answer. Her heart was in a panic. At this time, she was like a fish on a chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered. It wouldn’t end well if she didn’t say anything!
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
The sound of knocking hit the door. Adele was leaning against the door. She was so scared that her body trembled and her face turned pale.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
“Mr. Yusuf, Su Yicheng is here. I asked him to go to the living room,” Ben said.
“I’ll go now,” Damon said without hesitation.
As he spoke, he looked down at the woman who was pressed against the wall and could not move. A dark light flashed in his eyes, and he seemed to pull the corners of his lips slightly. He lowered his voice and whispered into her ear, “We’ll settle this next time.”
He was not in a hurry. Anyway, there were still many days ahead of him.
After that, he let go of her, opened the door, and strode out.
Adele was stunned on the spot, and the words that the man had just said still echoed in her ears. She took a deep breath in panic and stabilized her mood.
It was clearly him who was flirting with women, and he was in a hurry. Why did it seem like she was the one who did the wrong thing?
Adele was a little angry with her reaction just now. She shook her head and calmed down a little before walking out of the office.
She had only taken a few steps when she suddenly thought of the reason she came to look for Damon. She had come to ask for Director Feng’s contact information, but after all this trouble, she had completely forgotten about it!
Adele shook her head helplessly. She had no choice but to go eat first.
While they were eating, Emily suddenly called.
As soon as she picked up the phone, Adele heard Emily’s lively voice from the other side. “Hello, Adele, let’s go out to play this weekend?”
“Emily, I’m afraid I can’t. I have to go to Thailand for a business trip in two days.”
“Go to Thailand for a business trip? Why haven’t I heard you mention it?” Emily asked, feeling a little disappointed.
Adele smiled. He heard the sadness in her voice and said softly, “I just confirmed it recently. I’ll go for three or four days. When I come back, I’ll go play again.”
“Alright, then we’ll talk about it when you come back.”
After hanging up the phone, Emily turned to look at the man standing next to him and curled his lips. “Did you hear that? She doesn’t have time. You can’t blame me!”
Hearing this, Owen curled his lips lightly and said calmly, “It’s fine. We’ll talk about it when she comes back.”
Emily finally couldn’t take it anymore. She raised her hand and patted him on the shoulder. “Hey, brother, how come I didn’t know that you were so timid?”
He was decisive and decisive in his work and life, but as long as it was about Adele, he seemed to have changed into a different person.
He even asked her, his sister, to go out!
When Owen heard this, he was not angry. He curled his lips and remained silent.
He had his own considerations. He would rather progress slowly than hurt her. From what happened between Adele and Damon last time, he could tell that she had been hurt, so he didn’t want to scare her too directly.
The relationship between the two slowly developed, and it was natural. This was the best way he thought.
