Chapter 157: Follow Me
After the two sat down, Anna immediately said, “I heard about the conference room. Serena, you are really amazing!”
As she heard Anna compliment her, Serena was a little embarrassed and said, “What’s so great about it? It’s no big deal.”
“I thought you were going to take their abuse and cry. I never thought you would react like that on the first day. Now your supervisor and the other people who wanted to tease you will be annoyed to death.”
Serena:”… ” She became worried and said, “There are many people in this company who want to ridicule me, if you stay with me you will be convoluted as well.”
Anna smiled and said, “No problem, I’m from the finance department and my father is the head of the finance department. They won’t dare to do anything to me.”
Serena: “Is there still this kind of work?”
“Yes, you know everyone’s salary in the company is paid by me~ Haha.”
Serena understood that Anna was the one on whom many depended.
“Although I can’t keep their salary. I can still pay them late. Maybe you don’t know that many people in this town are spendthrifts and spend their whole salary in one day. If I let a day or two go by, everyone starts crying ”
Serena: “It’s unbelievable.”
“I have your back from now on, so don’t worry~”
After the two of them had lunch, Serena went back to her seat. Her computer was old and took quite a while to turn on.
Serena was still sitting when she heard footsteps behind her.
She frowned slightly, and when she turned around, she saw Tommaso walking towards her, also holding a coffee cup in his hand. He placed it in front of Serena, “So… What did you say your name was?
When Tommaso wanted to call her, he realized he did not know her name because she had been demoted and without following the normal procedure.
Serena looked at him coldly and did not answer his question. She just glanced at her coffee cup.
“Did you want something from me?”
He rubbed his hands together and said with a smile, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t tell me your name. Since you have just arrived, I will call you little girl.”
Serena:”… ” Did this nickname have anything to do with the fact that she had just arrived there?
“You can call me Miss Gallo.”
She did not want to say her name to the person who would have bad intentions and wanted to hurt her that morning.
“Miss Gallo? Miss Gallo sounds so good! ” Tommaso stepped forward with a smile, and pointed to the cup of coffee, “I brought it especially for you. Drink it, quickly!”
Serena: “Do you want something from me?”
“Yes, but it’s not something important.” Tommaso rubbed his hands together and moved a few steps closer to her. Serena’s expression changed slightly and she took a step back to keep her distance from him. She looked into his face and seeing his unhappy look suddenly, she understood something.
She stopped and shouted coldly, “Don’t come any closer!”
Tommaso was shushed by her. He stood still in his seat. He was not angry but with his half-closed eyes he continued to look at her arms and Serena’s thin neck.
“Actually, Miss Gallo, if you were demoted you must have made many mistakes before, right? Everyone expects you to ridicule or hurt yourself, you know Greta Leone from the design department? Before you came, she asked me to take care of you, you know what I mean? ”
Serena did not speak.
Tommaso continued, “However, I think their attitude toward you is wrong. How can you hurt a nice girl like you? Just because they like President Cristian and can’t make high-ranking friendships, but you have a chance to get close? It really shouldn’t be. ”
Hearing these words Serena frowned, “What is that supposed to mean?”
“I just want to protect you. I didn’t listen to what Greta told me. This morning’s incident was an accident, Miss Gallo. I promise you that this kind of thing will not happen again in the future .”
As he spoke, he approached Serena, who knew what his intentions were and sneered, “You can step forward and try.”
Tommaso took a step forward. He was standing still and smiling.
“Miss Gallo, have you ever heard the saying, ‘He who adapts to circumstances is a true sage?’ Now you have come to my department. As long as I can protect you, you will not suffer any more nastiness from others so you will not hang bad ways, okay?”
Seeing that Serena did not respond, Tommaso continued to be surprised, “I can’t be like the president, but after all he doesn’t want you anymore, right? Even if I don’t have the same power and money as him, I promise I won’t abandon you, how about that?”
Serena: “…”
Unexpectedly, her purpose was this.
“Miss Gallo, think about it. “Only the wise person adapts to situations. I won’t force you, just think about it for a couple of days.”
After speaking, Tommaso turned and left without waiting for Serena to speak again.
After he left, Serena unconsciously looked up and in her heart thought… what problems did this man have? How could she be his lover if she did not even want to be Cristian’s lover?
Because he had been there for so long, Serena felt that the air around her had become fetid.
Not wanting to stay there any longer, she packed her things to leave.
Before starting work, she went to Anna’s place for a chat.
Serena went directly to the finance department, but received a message from Alice, asking her to go to the roadside of the company. Serena went there and Alice brought her a gift.
Since Serena saw that Anna had not come down yet, she went down first.
After standing on the roadside for a while, Alice’s car stopped.
Opening the car door, Alice handed her a bag.
“Serena, I bought it especially for you. You can open it when you come back tonight.”
“Why did you buy me something so suddenly?” Serena looked at the bag with surprise, it looked very expensive. She didn’t know what she had bought her.
Alice’s eyes turned. She smiled embarrassedly, “What are you doing? I thought of you when I bought it, okay? So I brought you one just like it. Are you still avoiding me?
“I’m not avoiding you.” Serena looked at her scornfully, “You know, how could I avoid you. You specially came here.”
“It’s no big deal. I will try my best to be a better person in the future!”
Serena:”… Why? Did you do something behind my back? ”
Alice paled and asked quickly, “What are you saying? Have I ever hurt you? Serena, you are doing this on purpose, aren’t you? Mhm.”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
“It’s nothing, thank you.”
“Humph, you’re welcome. I’ll be leaving.”
“Serena!”
She heard Anna’s voice coming from behind, turned around and saw Anna walking toward her.
“Is she a friend of yours?” Alice asked, seeing Anna in the distance.
Serena nodded, “She is the girl in the company who is very good to me.”
“Okay, then I’ll see you in two days.”
As soon as Alice left, Anna also approached Serena’s side, sticking her head out and looking in the direction Alice was leaving, “Hey, that bitchy-looking woman is the one I saw earlier on Facebook, right?”
