\nBillionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 139<\/p>\n
He smiled and suddenly became embarrassed. \u201cDid I hurt you just now?\u201d<\/p>\n
Shaking her head, she answered, \u201cMr. Conduibh, it\u2019s work time. Can I go back to work now?\u201d<\/p>\n
He gathered his senses again and said in a guilty tone, \u201cSorry, I was too rude.\u201d<\/p>\n
Shaking her head, she said, \u201cMr. Conduibh, I\u2019ve forgot what happened just now. I hope you won\u2019t think too badly of me, though I love money indeed. It was your parents who set me up to be in huge debt and even got Savannah in trouble, so I think she is the one you should say sorry to. And I hope you can say sorry to her on behalf of your parents, if you\u2019re willing.\u201d<\/p>\n
He nodded.<\/p>\n
He tidied his suits and still looked very nervous. \u201cI\u2019m so sorry. Please forgive me.\u201d<\/p>\n
She still shook her head and said, \u201cDon\u2019t mention it. I\u2019ve forgot it.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAll right.\u201d<\/p>\n
They walked out of the parking lot as if nothing had happened just now. When Ophelia came back to her office in the department of design, her colleagues threw an occasional look at her. She felt nervous again and glanced at Elisa, who was famous as a gossip.<\/p>\n
\u201cOphelia, someone saw you were pulled out of the company by Mr. Conduibh. He didn\u2019t hurt you, did he?\u201d Elisa asked her in a low voice.<\/p>\n
Weaving a sigh secretly, Ophelia thought it was true to say that there was no secret in offices. People were particularly interested in gossiping the relationship between a boss and a staff, especially when the staff was married.<\/p>\n
In her colleagues\u2019 eyes, she might have been a woman who entered the company due to her relationship with the boss.<\/p>\n
A workplace was like a battlefield. One would lose if he was not careful.<\/p>\n
Ophelia said, \u201cMr. Conduibh was talking business with me. I\u2019m married and pregnant. What relationship do you think I am with him?\u201d<\/p>\n
Seeing her so calm, Elisa was worried about her. \u201cI know Mr. Conduibh and you are just boss and staff, but the others don\u2019t think so perhaps. You\u2019re married and having a baby, so you might as well be careful and cautious in case your reputation should be damaged.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia felt warm. She knew that the girl, who was in her twenties, was considerate and careful, despite being gossipy and noisy.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know, you gossip. I will be more careful. Come back to work.\u201d<\/p>\n
Glancing at her, Elisa said, \u201cMrs. King has an opinion with you, so you\u2019d better be more careful. Don\u2019t be so casual.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia smiled, \u201cSince when you have become such a stickybeak?\u201d<\/p>\n
Elisa pouted in a pretending annoyance and said, \u201cI\u2019m for your own good, while you call me stickybeak. You\u2019re so ungrateful. I\u2019ll leave your alone.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia said, \u201cJust come back to work. Though Mrs. King is strict with us, she won\u2019t punish us for no reason. You must envy that she\u2019s beautiful.\u201d<\/p>\n
Elisa curled her lips and said, \u201cYou misunderstand me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ophelia smiled.<\/p>\n
The news Elisa brought for Ophelia didn\u2019t distract her from work. Gracie King put on her sunglasses and stepped into the caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n
\u201cWelcome, miss, how many in your group?\u201d A waitress came to greet her.<\/p>\n
\u201cTwo.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis way, please.\u201d<\/p>\n
She chose a seat at the corner. When the man who had the appointment with her arrived, she said, \u201cYou\u2019re late.\u201d<\/p>\n
She stretched her hand and said, \u201cWhere\u2019s what I need? I have to go back to work in a moment.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cGracie, we haven\u2019t seen each other for ages, but you asked me to give you what you want as soon as I arrived. Don\u2019t you think it will hurt my feeling?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1013","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1013","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1013"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
