Chapter 59
Do you think I will believe you?” Unexpectedly, he did not flinch, but smiled with interest. “Even if you are really married, so what? I am more interested in a wife.”
“Screw you!” I don’t want to talk to him anymore.
“Trista, your subordinate made a mistake this time. As a supervisor, don’t you have any responsibility? If you don’t take responsibility, I can only ask your Mr. Donald for compensation. After all, he has so much money. Even if I ask for more, he will agree.” He followed me and said.
“Why do you want so much money? You will squander in the evening. You, a rich man, don’t know how hard life is!” I walked into the elevator, not expecting him to follow me. I rolled my eyes and asked, “Why are you following me?”
“I want to have a good talk with you. Aren’t you the head of the department? As a partner, don’t you have to be considerate of my feelings after something this big happens?”
“…. if it were anyone else, I’d really think about it. But the more I think about Paddy, the more aggressive he gets! I don’t want to think about it.
“Stop following me!” When I stepped out of the elevator and saw him shamelessly following me, I suddenly went black. “Do you want everyone in the office to know about our relationship?”
“What is our relationship? Why can not I know?” “Trista, if you promise me one thing, I will not bother you anymore. I promise!”
“And if I do not agree?”
“Then I will come to you every day and make sure you can not concentrate on your work! I’ll disrupt your whole department, make them obsessed with me and destroy their marriage.”
“You are so childish!”
“Do you agree or not? If you do not agree, I will order flowers for you!” He looked inside and said, “There are roses and lilies over there. It’s not bad to put them aside . Trista, I’ll give you flowers today and pink balloons tomorrow!”
“As long as I agree to your conditions, you will not bother me from now on, will you?”
“Of course.”
“Tell me, what condition?”
“Tomorrow is Sunday. You stay with me for a whole day. Just accept that I am not happy and take a walk with me. As long as tomorrow is over, I promise you that I will not disturb your life anymore!”
“A date?”
“Of course not! We are just talking about work, not anything else!”
“Okay, it’s a deal. You are not allowed to come to me anymore, starting tomorrow, and you are not allowed to take care of the production line!”
“No problem!”
When I got home, the first person I turned to was Donald. “The person in charge of the production line came to see us today and asked me to take him for a walk tomorrow. He can withdraw his lawsuit against our group.”
“Compensate him.” He said calmly.
I almost thought I had misheard.
If the production line was many times more expensive, it would cost at least ten billion.
“He knows that this time it’s the Lion Group’s fault. If we compensate him, he will definitely ask for a high price. Donald, don’t you think it’s not worth it?”
“I’ll pay it.” He seemed to have admitted defeat. “No matter what happens, I won’t let my wife sacrifice ”
I didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. “You want tens of billions of dollars for me?”
“You can give up all your wealth.”
“Then how can you feed this family?”
“Start from scratch. It’s not hard for me.”
I didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. “The reason I am telling you this is because I made a decision. There are some things I should take responsibility for. Just let me go. Don’t stop me.”
He looked at me and said, “I will find someone to help you.”
“I am the head of the department. I should have taken care of this myself. I don’t want others to show their sincerity.” I held his arm and comforted him, “don’t worry. I will protect myself.”
“If something happens tomorrow, you can always contact me.”
“Okay.”
On the morning of the second day, Paddy sent me five options to choose from: hot spring, foot massage, hotel, golf course, private box…. I chose the golf course without hesitation.
i had my hair tied in a ponytail, wore a hat and was dressed casually. I took a cab to the golf course. It was crowded and lively. Just when I was curious about what kind of show it was, Paddy came over and grabbed my hand. “Trista, come here!”
“What are you doing?” I hurriedly shook off his hand. “I said, I have a husband. Let go of me!”
“It’s too late! I’ll put him down later!” He held my hand and ran forward. In the wide meadow, countless fire balloons were ready to go up in the air.
“What’s going on?”
“You’ll know soon enough!”
Countless couples sat in the basket of fire balloons. Paddy helped me into it. Soon the fire balloons were flying into the air. The breeze gently brushed my face and I was unconsciously in a good mood.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
When I saw the colorful balloons in the air, many people looked at me enviously. I was confused. “Why are they looking at me all the time?”
“Because you are very special today.”
“Special?”
I looked myself up and down. It’s just an ordinary style of dress, nothing special!
Then I looked at the fire balloons sriding on, but the color and shape were different from the others, and they were very eye-catching.
“Trista, look down there!”
When I heard the voice of Paddy, I love you, looked down and saw thousands of flowers surrounding several English letters on the grass below – Trista, I lower you.
I was stunned. Is he trying to express his love to me? How could he use this method!
What if Donald knew ty?
“Trista, there’s more over there.”
At his reminder, I noticed that the fire balloons the others rode on were engraved with the words “Trista, I love you.”
I was a little annoyed. “Paddy, I remember you saying yesterday that we would only talk about work and nothing else!”
“I did not say anything!”
“I want to go down!” I insist.
“Trista, wait a minute. I have prepared a bigger surprise for you.”
“I said I am going downstairs!”
What if Donald got the news?
With that thought, I had no choice but to take the risk. “If YOU do not lower the fire balloons, I’ll jump down from here!”
He hurriedly made a concession. “I didn’t say I would not lower you. I am lowering you right now, okay? Do not be excited!”
As the fire died down, Paddy slowly dropped the fire balloons. One by one, the balloons came to a stop on the beach of a city.
“Trista, how about I take some pictures for you?”
“No!” I lifted my gaze and looked around. The scenery here was as beautiful as a painting, and the sea was gorgeous. Looking at it from a distance, I felt especially relaxed and happy.
“This is City N. The whole city is surrounded by the sea. Trista, if you think it’s beautiful here, why don’t we stay here tonight?”
“No.”
“How about I show you around City N?”
“No.”
“Shopping center?”
I shook my head. “No, you better take me to the bookstore!”
“A bookstore?”
Paddy immediately made a phone call. Soon a car drove us to the largest bookstore in City N.
“Give me all kinds of books here.” I ordered generously as soon as I entered the house.
“Miss, are you sure you want them all? There are so many books that you can not read through them in a short time. Why don’t you buy them after you have read a few?”
“Are you worried that I can not afford it? Don’t worry about it. This is Mr. Paddy, the well-known crown prince of City A. He can afford all the books in City N, not to mention all the books!”
Paddy nodded proudly. “Yes, she wants it. You can wrap it up!”
“Yes. I’ll assign someone to prepare it right away.”
The saleswoman didn’t dare to neglect him and immediately called everyone together to help.
“Trista, why do you need so many books? Can you finish it?” asked Paddy as he watched ME pack.
“Who says I want to see it? I’ll donate it.”
“Donate?”
“You have done so many bad things. You ruined a good woman. If you do not do more charity, how can I do good for you?”
“So I have to thank you?” said Paddy helplessly.
“You are welcome!” I choked on purpose.
“What’s your next arrangement?”
“Didn’t you say you’d agree to anything I wanted to do today? I want to go shopping!”
“Shopping?”
With a smile at the corner of his mouth, he said, “Okay, whatever you want to buy, I’ll buy it all for you!”
