BXBX NOVEL Chapter 669 - Cicilia's Jealousy
Lisa\'s heart and cheeks felt warm hearing Oscar\'s sweet words. But that doesn\'t mean she still doesn\'t feel panicked and wants to slap the man out! She rushed out of bed and entered the bathroom at lightning speed.
If she usually takes about 30 minutes to take a shower, now she only spends less than 10 minutes. She came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her body and wet feet.
"Sexy..." Oscar\'s deep voice came from behind.
Lisa really didn\'t have any more time to scold him now. She just threw the wet towel on the bed and put on the work clothes she found in Oscar\'s wardrobe. The woman was no longer concerned with her appearance, the most important thing now was that she didn\'t come to the office too late!
"Sexy what? Snap out of it!" Lisa grumbled displeased.
Without waiting for Oscar\'s reply, she rushed out of the room. Usually, she would stop by William\'s room first, whether it was to check on the boy or take him to breakfast, but now she didn\'t have time for any of that!
As she descended the stairs, Lisa turned on her cell phone and booked an online taxi.
Arriving at the office, the time already showed 9 past 20! It\'s too late, the woman\'s appearance is also a mess! The sound of her high heels clattering loudly across the Finance Division floor.
Lisa sat in the chair behind her desk with a gasp. Luckily, she didn\'t run into Indri or her other superiors!
Knock knock.
"Enter." Lisa said while smoothing her messy hair.
Not long after that, Cicilia came in with some important documents in her hand.
This morning, at exactly 7 o\'clock, Cicilia was already busy trying to contact Lisa. The first call wasn\'t answered, so she thought that maybe the woman was still on her way. Finally, she decided to wait at her desk while looking back and forth at the door to Lisa\'s room. About 10 minutes later, she tried to knock on the door again.
But the result was the same. She did not hear Lisa\'s voice and her cell phone was off. Until finally, she tried to call Lisa a third time, and still that woman didn\'t even pick up the phone!
For heaven\'s sake there are many important documents that Lisa needs to read and sign! In the morning, Cicilia felt like going mad. On the one hand, she was afraid that Indri would scold her because Lisa didn\'t come. On the other hand, she was also annoyed that Lisa was late on Monday.
"Oh my gosh, Lisa. Finally you came too!" Cicilia said hastily. She came to the woman\'s desk and handed out some of the documents stored in the colorful folder.
After receiving the document, Lisa finally heaved a sigh of relief. At first, she thought that it was Indri who was standing behind the door and was getting ready to scold her all out. But apparently, the one who came was Cicilia and the documents she carried.
When Lisa started working here, Indri was a friendly woman who always treated her well, even when she finally came to know that she did it all because of Oscar. And since the problem between them was brought to light, things changed, and Indri treated her coldly.
It could also be said that Indri was the enemy in this company.
Before Lisa fixed her relationship with Oscar, she always saw Indri walking around the Finance Division. Sometimes, they exchanged greetings or just smiled at each other.
But now was different. Sometimes, Indri still walked around the Finance Division, but the woman always scolded other employees. Starting from the way they sat to the documents that were delivered late to her desk.
"Please sign over here, Mrs. Lisa," Lisa could tell from her voice that Cicilia was in a hurry. Not to mention her hands were shaking slightly when she opened the colorful folder, "Hurry up!"
Hearing Cicilia\'s panicked voice made Lisa panic too. Her breathing has not returned to normal but she is made even more panicked by Cicilia!
"Why are you in such a hurry? Why didn\'t you try calling me this morning? If this was an important document, I would\'ve come here as soon as possible!"
Hearing that made Cicilia look up, "I\'ve tried to contact you more than 2 times. But your cell phone was dead or out of range. Please don\'t blame me."
This was the first time that Lisa heard Cicilia talk to her in such a firm tone. Suddenly, Lisa looked up and saw the look on the woman\'s face that turned sour. If she used to look friendly and full of smiles, now she was sullen and her brow furrowed.
"Ah, sorry, sorry, it\'s not that I didn\'t want to pick up your phone. It\'s just that I didn\'t have time to look at my cellphone at all this morning." Lisa lied.
"It\'s okay." Cicilia replied simply. She proceeded to open some of the important documents and said, "Please sign over here."
Lisa nodded her head "Okay. Thank you, Cicilia. You can leave now."
Cicilia also nodded her head and wanted to turn around. But before she could do that, she accidentally saw Lisa\'s neck covered in dark purple marks. In that instant, she felt jealous to death.
But of course she didn\'t say that in front of Lisa.
If Lisa were still the employee of the same division like before, she\'d just tease her right away. But now that she was her superior, Cicilia didn\'t dare to say it all.
Starting from red roses, dozens of lunches sent by the mysterious man, and a neck that\'s covered with bite marks, Cicilia couldn\'t explain in words how jealous she was towards Lisa.
Seeing Cicilia who didn\'t move from her initial position made Lisa look up again. She had seen Cicilia looking at her neck, but because she was too panicked by the pile of documents, Lisa forgot about it.
"…Why are you still here? Is there still something important you want to talk to me about?" Lisa asked in a confused tone.
Cicilia blinked a few times then quickly averted her gaze. She shook her head and said, "A-ah, no, your neck— ah, I mean, I\'ll take my leave first!"
