My Supermodel Wife

Rachel's mood immediately surged like waves, cold sweat poured down her forehead onto her cheeks. 

Her eyes looked worried when her gaze met her boss' eyes and she immediately moved away Once again, she lowered her head and apologized. "Sorry Mr. Alan, I didn't mean to run into you. I was wrong because I didn't pay attention to my steps earlier,"​​

Alan adjusted his clothes and moved to the side a little to let his subordinate stand behind.

His shoulder hurt a bit because he was not ready when Rachel bumped into him. 

Behind him, Rachel tried to peek at the man she loved. Biting her lips while clenching her fists, she said in a bold tone, "Mr. Alan, is there anything I can do as an apology?"

As soon as she said this, Rachel realized that these words carried a lot of meaning.

She suddenly felt a little embarrassed, but the look in her eyes never moved away from the figure of the charming and manly man in front of her.

When dealing with a man they liked, women would always say and do stupid things without thinking.

Just like what Rachel did just now. Although her words were ambiguous and her face was blushing, her shoulder slumped a little and showed sincerity because she stood facing her idol.

Women's hearts were really complicated!

The more they liked them, the more embarrassed they would be when they met them. Since  they rarely saw each other, their hearts were increasingly anxious because they couldn't see their target's figure.

At this time, Alan gave Rachel a strange look. In his opinion, this woman in front of him had very naive thoughts.

No matter how indifferent or arrogant he was, a man like Alan couldn't help but guess what the woman was thinking.

If she said that she didn't see him earlier, then she must be lying and pretending.

As they said, a person's eyes were the window to their most honest heart.

This woman…. Wasn't she Lilia's friend?

This possibility made Alan's expression change instantly. His face gradually softened and glanced at Rachel. "You don't need to worry, I hope you are more careful next time,"

Rachel did not notice the change in Alan's facial expression, or did she notice it but ignore him? Even when she knew this, Rachel didn't understand why Alan had suddenly changed his expression. The man's answer alone made her feel relieved and happy.

Rachel nodded in response, and her face couldn't stop smiling. The sound of her heart pounding seemed to be heard clearly in this narrow elevator room.

Worried that Alan might hear her, Rachel immediately lowered her head. However, her joyful heart couldn't let go of this moment. She then said after making up her mind. "Mr. Alan, are you leaving?"

Alan looked at her with a sharp gaze and a sullen face. "I have work to revise and I need to watch it firsthand. The last time I remember, you also participated in the planning of the advertis.e.m.e.nt, right?"

Rachel's face looked surprised. And after trying hard to remember, she said carefully. "Are you referring to an advertising plan for an educational application project?"

"That's right, since you are involved in the project, come with me to meet with our co-workers' companies."

"What?" Rachel's heart felt like it was going to fall off.

Seeing Rachel's reaction, Alan's eyes lit up. He ignored her reaction just now and said casually, "Head to the bas.e.m.e.nt on the 2nd floor to see me later."

After saying that, Alan pressed the button for the elevator door. Before he came out, he turned a little then looked at the still dumbfounded Rachel and asked, "My car... you should've known it right?"

Instead of asking, Alan seemed to be making sure.

Rachel immediately threw away unnecessary emotions and nodded at once. "I know it sir."

Seeing Rachel recovering from her daze, Alan smiled faintly and got off the elevator. He needed to prepare some things in advance, so he told Rachel to wait for about 15 minutes before they finally met in the bas.e.m.e.nt floor 2.

For Rachel, today was a bright day for her.

After Lilia left the Plaza Building, it was already 4 PM.

She called a taxi back home because she had told Kenny not to wait for her. As soon as she got into the taxi, her phone vibrated.

[Harold]: "The contract for Alfred's perfume ad has been terminated. But their side has not asked us to pay the compensation as stated in the contract. I don't know what they were thinking."

When she saw this message, Lilia's eyes turned dark. She held her cell phone while deep in thought for a moment. Then she started typing something on the screen in response to Harold's message.

[Lilia]: "Regardless of whether the other party wants compensation or not, we should give them compensation according to the contract. I don't want them to use this incident to find trouble in the future."

After sending the message, Lilia shifted her gaze and looked out the car's window. The leaves that had fallen from the trees along the road were yellow, and there were some dry leaves hanging from the branches of the trees. In line with this languid sight, Lilia's heart was also a little melancholy.

Alfred might not want to accept compensation even if that was the rule. Regardless of what his aim was, Lilia felt that it was very rude for her to break the contract at will.

What's more, the party who broke the contract first was her. If Alfred really chose not to hold her accountable, this would make Lilia indebted to him. Since this was a contractual relationship, Lilia still insisted on following the contents of their agreement. And the best way to solve it was with money.

While Lilia was thinking about that, Harold sent another message.

[Harold]: "Alright then. To be safe, we'll pay double the damages. I've sent 8 billion to their account."

[Lilia]: "Thank you. You can deduct that money from my remuneration."

After Lilia waited a while, Harold didn't answer anymore. Just as she was about to put down her phone, it started ringing.

Lilia stared at the caller's name on her screen for a moment. She paused and considered whether she should pick up the phone or not. But in the end, she answered the phone politely.

"Good evening, Mr. Alfred," Lilia deliberately greeted him formally and spoke in a polite tone.

Her gentle attitude and greeting was enough to show her position and attitude towards Alfred. She guessed that the man had called because he had already received the contract termination fee from Aphrodite Agency.

On the other end of the phone, Alfred was silent for a moment. Then he said lightly, "We just met yesterday. Instead of getting closer, why do I feel that you are getting further away from me?"

Lilia ignored Alfred's sarcasm and asked nonchalantly, "Since Mr. Alfred took the time to call me, is there something wrong?"
