Chapter 122 In the true sense of the word
If she lived well?
Serena didn’t know how to describe it.
If she said she was living a bad life, Cristian sometimes treated her very well, even though he apparently seemed evil, but he was really helping her.
If she said she was making a good life, but she had no money, was limited and could not do many things.
“Serena?”
Serena came back to herself and smiled, “Don’t ask so many questions. Your friends are still waiting for you, go.”
Aurora blinked, “Well, Serena… I’ll go see my friends then.” Aurora said carefully as she took the remaining money and put it in her wallet.
“Go, I have to leave too.”
After the two of them parted, Aurora waited for her to leave and pulled out a credit card from her wallet. She looked at her silhouette with a mocking smile.
“She’s so stupid.”
She brought the credit card to her mouth and kissed it, then smiled.
“Two hundred euros is enough to touch you. You are such an idiot!”
After that, Aurora put the credit card away, and turned to leave.
Serena took a hundred euros and went home, worried. He was the head of a company. The price that the restaurant she ordered started at least from one hundred euros and up, and the money she had was not enough to pay it. How can she have the money to invite him for dinner?
But Cristian gave her the task….
Serena took off her shoes and lay down on the bed. She felt very depressed.
After thinking, she finally couldn’t help but send a message to Alice. But after typing the text of the message, Serena stopped.
Alice was already very busy in looking for the person for her. If she asked her to lend her money now… Was she not an annoying person for her?
Even if she was a good friend, she cannot take advantage of it and ask for help one time after another.
Thinking about this, Serena turned off the cell phone screen and hid her face under her pillow.
“Mission failed?”
The deep male voice sounded from the back, and Serena’s body stiffened and turned abruptly.
Cristian appeared quietly behind her again, and Serena’s expression changed slightly, “You … why do you always show up like this without making any noise and without any warning?”
Cristian knocked his wheelchair, “No noise?”
Serena: “…”
Indeed, there was noise when his wheelchair moved, but she was too absorbed in thinking about things, “What did you just ask me?”
“How is the task I gave you going?”
Serena thought, was he referring to the collaboration with the Giordano family group, right? Serena looked at Cristian questioningly, if…. How about asking him the early repayment this time first? Then she could deduct it from her salary?
“Um… I want to borrow money from you!”
Serena said suddenly.
Cristian squinted his eyes and arched his eyebrows, “Borrow money from me?”
He slowly lifted his lips and sarcasm leaked from his eyes.
After lurking for so long, she finally shew her true colors?
“You’re right.” Serena nodded heavily, probably because she was embarrassed, so she hesitated to speak “I contacted the Giordano family group and we set the meeting to the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, but. … I invited him to lunch, but I have no more money…”
Speaking of which, Serena shyly raised her eyes to look into Cristian’s bottomless eyes and asked carefully, “I will borrow five hundred euros from you and pay you back when I get my salary, okay?”
Cristian: “…”
This woman… She was always so unexpected.
He never followed her thinking.
He thought she would ask for much more. Who knew that she was only asking to borrow five hundred euros, and what did the look and expression mean? She seemed to be afraid that he would not lend her the money.
Probably the long silence gave Serena the illusion that Cristian did not want to lend her money. Serena said anxiously, “I’m sorry. I know it was my fault that I messed up this partnership negotiation. I know I shouldn’t ask you to lend me the money, but I have no choice. I really don’t have the money…”
Saying the last words, Serena lowered her head in embarrassment.
“If you don’t want to lend me money, I will think about it in other ways.”
After she finished speaking, Serena leaned back on her pillow, buried her entire face in the soft pillow, and no more sound was heard.
Inexplicably, Cristian felt that such Serena made him feel anguish.
Very desperate, so she asked him cautiously, but she was afraid he would get angry and disagree, so she refused before he expressed his opinion.
What a stupid woman she was.
Cristian’s eyes gradually darkened, and he said in a cold voice, “This is a public account. Aren’t you going to the financial office to declare it?”
Hearing this, Serena quickly sat up, “You, what did you say? Can I go to the financial office to declare? Can I go early?”
She thought she would be reimbursable after she turned in the bill, but she did not expect to be able to claim in advance.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Cristian initially wanted to say that there was no such thing, but seeing her beady eyes and pitiful expressions, he suddenly felt that it was also possible to give her a special case, otherwise … she was really desperate.
“Of course you can do.” He said in a low voice.
In the next second, Cristian saw Serena’s eyes light up, just like the dark sky without stars and moons. Suddenly, the clouds opened up to see the moon, and then the stars next to them also shone brightly.
Cristian felt deeply that his heart had been beaten.
Serena suddenly stood up, “Then I will apply tomorrow. The benefits of your company are really great. In the small company where I was before, it could not make refunds in advance.
Probably because the problem has been solved, so Serena s mood has improved. Suddenly she reached out a hand and grabbed Cristian’s sleeves, “I’ll do the best this time, and I definitely won’t cause you any more trouble.”
Her small hands were soft. Cristian lowered his head and glanced down. It was obvious that she was just holding him, but it gave Cristian the feeling that her hand was grasping his heart. How mean, that he limited himself only because he pulled it the corner of his clothes.
“Go to work tomorrow. Remember to go and apply for reimbursement in advance.” Cristian finished saying this, turned around with the wheelchair.
“Oh, I get it.” Serena was happy. The problem was solved and she didn’t have to worry about the matter being messed up.
“Don’t be smug too soon. Matteo is not so easy to talk to.”
Cristian’s voice fell on Serena’s head to keep her from being overwhelmed.
She heard and thought it made sense what he said.
But she was still happy. At least she solved a complicated thing. The next thing she had to do was to convince Matteo to cooperate with the Ferrari family.
Matteo was a very serious person. This time that Serena went to talk about collaboration should be her first project in the Ferrari family group.
