In the Vip room of the Vian hotel, on a very large bed, two people were passionately hugging each other.
The girl's body was burning hot. She repeatedly used her hand to pull the neck of the dress to reveal the chest area in front of Mikey's eyes. He felt bewildered as she kept hugging him and pulling. His eyes were closed, and his body was also burning from the girl's action.
Mikey turned to walk away but was pulled by the girl's hands, causing him to fall face down on the bed. After that, Mikey had her sit up on her body and begged: "Help me please, don't leave me here."
Saying that she closed her eyes and leaned down to kiss Mikey's cold lips in surprise. In just a second, Mikey was hypnotized by her sweet lips, turning him from a passive person to an active person.
Mikey turned the girl over and kissed her back, it had been a long time since he had felt this kind of excitement. Now his body is feeling very lustful for the girl below - A low-ranking employee under his command.
The girl was still in a coma without knowing it and took off her clothes with her own hands, her eyes were still closed, and her black eyelids curled beautifully.
Under the charm of the girl, plus the fact that Mikey had been drinking quite a lot. Mikey forgot about reality and decided to invade the girl. He just used his hand to separate the girl's legs wide. Just as she pushed her brother in, the girl's voice yelled out: "Damn, you hurt me so much!"
She bit into his wrist, leaving the mark of a tooth on it. Mikey grimaced about to give up, but the girl hugged his lower body tightly and begged: "Don't... I want... Don't stop, please. I'm so upset!"
Mikey restrained his annoyance. His forehead was covered with sweat. He leaned down to kiss the girl's eyes, then along his cheek lightly touched the girl's lips, then whispered: "The pain will be gone in a moment, please relax your body."
The girl nodded, bit her lip with her teeth, then wrapped her arms around his back, actively accepting.
After a while of excitement, Mikey's whole body was drenched with sweat, he pulled the blanket over the girl next to him. Mikey's eyes flashed with confusion as he looked at the tired girl sleeping on the bed. More in those eyes was pain and hatred.
It's been two years, Mikey has been looking for this woman for two years. She left her one-year-old child behind and left with another man.
Mikey still couldn't believe Elena would do such a thing. She was his woman, his son's mother, who once said she loved only him.
Now that the two met again under these circumstances, he was looking forward to when Elena woke up to see how he would react. He put on his shirt and walked toward the bathroom. And the girl was obediently sleeping without pulling him anymore.
Mikey lit a cigar, he stood by the floor-to-ceiling window looking outside, it was now pouring rain. He frowned at the many missed call notifications on his phone screen.
Mikey opens his personal assistant's message: [Where is the boss, not coming home? I'm so miserable. I just had to come up with an excuse to lie to my boss's wife.]
Mikey sighed, he threw his phone on the sofa and went back to bed. The girl was still fast asleep, sometimes the eyebrows on her smooth, sweat-stained forehead were slightly furrowed, her mouth mumbled to say something, but could not hear clearly, her face showed an expression. fear. Mikey lay down beside her, reaching out and patting her arm like a comforting baby. The girl naturally rolled a little, crawled into his arms, and slept soundly. The warmth from the girl's breath, plus the very special scent on her body made him feel like his body was on fire again.
What the hell is going on with Mikey? He asked himself, but then couldn't answer. Mikey bent down to take the girl's tightly pursed lips and let his emotions flow with his desires without the permission of the person next to him.
The alarm clock blared, and Elena narrowed her eyes as the sun hit her face. Elena picked up the phone to turn off the alarm but couldn't move. She was being hugged tightly by someone... and her body was tired, her joints creaking.
Elena tried to open her eyes wide to wake up, she was like a person with sleep paralysis trying to get out of a nightmare. Elena looked startled at the man lying next to him in the flesh, sleeping soundly. He was holding her tight. Elena slapped herself on the cheek, and she immediately felt a burning pain, this is not a dream, so what is this?
Elena tried to push down the man's arm on her stomach, she scratched her head and looked back at herself and the man beside her, both naked. Elena rubbed her eyes and looked at the person next to her again, She suddenly jumped in fear.
Elena moved her body slightly, she raised her hand to reach for clothes to put on and then quietly hidden. But suddenly the man opened his eyes and looked at her from time to time. Elena screamed in surprise, then turned around and asked loudly:
- Since when did you wake up?
- Ever since you slapped yourself.
- When you wake up, explain why you and I...
Mikey looked at the girl's faltering figure and red face suddenly his heart ached. Elena doesn't recognize him? In those green eyes, there was now only a strangeness. Impossible! Mikey asked coldly:
- What? I think this is normal.
Elena immediately got angry, she shouted, she also forgot that Mikey was her big boss:
- Crazy, do you know who I am?
- A person last night pressed me under his body and repeatedly demanded
Elana's face turned red, and she stammered:
- You... you...
Mikey pursed his lips, his chest aching with each beat of his heart. He doesn't say anything anymore, sat up leisurely, picked up his clothes, and put them on:
- You need to pay an extra tip for abusing me many times!
At Mikey's indifference, Elena rolled her eyes in anger, grabbed a pillow, and hit the man in front of her.
- Who do you think you are to give yourself the right to look down on others? I will sue you for raping me. Bastard, who let you touch me?
Mikey's face suddenly turned cold and serious. He grabbed the pillow in Elena's hand and threw it away a sharp voice said:
- It was you who seduced me first. Do you want men that much? Does her man not satisfy her? Or if you need money, I'll give it to you.
Elena laughed bitterly.
- Money? Do you think I'm a prostitute? My life isn't miserable enough, why are you giving it another shot of black ink? Why do I have to live like this? Why do wretches like you live in luxury?
Having been cursed for a while, Mikey stood up and adjusted his clothes, his voice still unchanged:
- What do you want now? You just need to say a number, and I will respond.
Elena raised her hand to wipe her tears, her face beaming with a wild smile, scornfully looking at the man standing in front of her:
- One million dollars, can you give it to me?
- You will receive the money today. Step out of this room as if you and I are no longer related, so don't use any other excuse to approach me. Will this end here? - Mikey heartbrokenly tried to probe Elena's attitude. He still couldn't believe she didn't recognize him.
- Are you afraid too?
- I don't like to be in debt to others. The incident between you and me was just an accident, if you still want a job then forget about it. Anyway, I thank you for last night. I've discovered that some old habits are just too scary.
With that, Mikey quickly left the room without paying any attention to Elena. She sat dumbfounded and laughed madly:
- Elena, why is your life so despicable? You once promised you will hold your head high and live, you will reclaim what belongs to you. Why are you so miserable every day?... John! I'm sorry...
From the day her parents died, her life seemed to have fallen into hell. She was chased away by her family members and robbed of everything. At that time, she swore that, at all costs, she would pay them back for all that was done to her and her brother.
[...]
Elena had just finished her night job at the cafe, she immediately ran to the hospital to visit her brother. By the time we got there, it was almost midnight, and Miss May was sleeping on the rollaway bed next to John's. The boy still shows no signs of waking up, around John's body there are tangled wires, and the sound of the ventilator is still running steadily. Elena sat down and held John's hand.
- John! If you love me, can you try to wake me up? I cannot live without you. Even if I have to sell my life, I will save you, so just try not to leave me.
Elena silently cried looking at her brother. Many times the doctor advised her to let John go but she did not agree. As long as there is 1% hope, she will also save John. To keep this alive for John, Elena was not afraid to do anything. Although she has to work very late every day, as long as she has time, she will immediately run to the hospital to visit John. Because Elena was afraid that when John woke up, she wouldn't be with her.
- When are you? It's late, why don't you go home and rest?
Miss May's voice startled Elena, she wiped her tears and turned to smile.
- I woke you up. Now I'm back here.
- It's late, you still have to work tomorrow. John is here with the doctors and me, so you can rest assured. But where do you get the money to hire more nurses to take care of John? I just need to take care of John by myself.
Elena bent down to touch May's thin arms. She is Vietnamese. She is the only one who stays by Elena's side and helps her while all her relatives refuse.
- You've worked so hard. I just got a new job with a good income, so I want to hire someone to take care of you. From next week, you can go home to sleep at night, you can help me take care of John during the day.
- I'm so polite. I am still healthy and can help you. You should save money and treat John as well. Don't work too hard and fall ill, then who will take care of John.
Elena looked at the woman in front of her with emotion, She took out the book on economics, and put it in May's hand:
- Tomorrow, you continue to read to John, I believe John will still hear and not forget the knowledge he has learned. I'm too busy, so it's all thanks to you.
The middle-aged woman who received the book nodded in agreement. Elena took out an envelope of money from her pocket and placed it in May's hand:
- I send you money this month, I will give you a little more as a thank you for helping me.
- Elena, if you're having a hard time, don't worry about my salary, your parents have already helped my family a lot while they were alive, so I'll help you now.
Elena shook her head in denial:
- I can do it! You still have to take care of your husband, so you can't go without a salary. When it's really hard for me, I'll tell you. Time for me to go. I need to go to work early tomorrow morning.
Elena went to John's bedside. She kissed him on the forehead then hurriedly left the hospital and returned to the rented room.
[....]
Mikey was sitting at the bar, his hand swinging his glass of wine. After that night, he always thought of Elena. Sometimes, he even made an excuse to go to the survey and went to the Marketing department but never met her again. He turned to the assistant sitting next to him and asked:
- Investigate me about a girl named Elena - Marketing department employee.
- Did she offend her boss?
- I told you to do it, don't ask too many questions.
Having worked with Mikey since he took over the family business when he received an answer like that, Luck knew he shouldn't ask any more questions. This is the first time this man learns about a girl, there must be a reason. But what it is, he doesn't know. Luck just obeyed without asking too much. Knowing too much will sometimes make him cry or laugh and pretend to be deaf and dumb.
[....]
Elana ran to the bus stop to go to work, selling life and death. She came home too late last night, so this morning when the alarm went off, she didn't know it and fell asleep. It was rush hour, the bus was very crowded, and Elena had a hard time getting a place on the bus.
Elena ran to the roll call machine when the clock read seven forty-five minutes, only five minutes left for her to sit in her chair and get to work. Elana rushed back to the elevator just in time to push the open button when it closed. The elevator doors opened, but Elana stood frozen in place, her eyes widening at the person standing inside. When the elevator was about to close, another polite man opened it and gently asked:
- Do you come in or wait for the next one?
Elena bowed her head apologetically, then awkwardly stepped into the elevator.
It's been almost a month since that night, Elena hasn't seen Mikey again, today she must be walking on her left foot, so she ran into someone she didn't want to see in her life. Reaching her floor, Elana had to let someone else remind her before she hurriedly got out of the elevator, and looked at her watch, it was already five minutes late. She woke up with a sigh and trudged back to her seat. Being late, that's a loss of a bonus.
The colleague next to her turned to Elena and asked in a low voice:
- Why is the sun rising in the west today, why is Elena so late for work?
- I just had bad luck, I've adjusted the time, but I'm still late.
She sighed softly thinking about the prize money that had been lost, her heart still regretted it. Elena had just turned on the computer to work, when her colleague turned again, her eyes looking back and forth before whispering:
- My big boss has a wife, you know?
- Where did you hear that?
- Everyone has been whispering since early this morning, that the information is correct. Maybe the lady's year-end party will appear.
Even though Elena didn't want to pay attention to the information she just learned, her mind still couldn't help but think of Mikey. She shivered briefly, a chill running down her spine. How she used to hate the third person, then she accidentally became the one-night stand of another's husband.
[...]
- The person who was in the elevator with us was Elena.
Luck saw that Mikey didn't show any expression when he met Elena in the elevator and asked softly. Mikey stopped walking and frowned.
- Is it your story? How far have you been able to investigate the matter I gave you?
- I've investigated all of them, I've been busy lately, so it's not convenient to report.
Luck ran to open the door to Mikey's room and he was about to return to his work when Mikey jerked his face and asked Luck to come into the room. As soon as he settled in his chair, Mikey ordered:
- Report what you have investigated.
Luck approached Mikey's desk with the cup of coffee his secretary had just brought him, his voice slow:
- Miss Elena is twenty-four years old this year and graduated with a major in management and psychology in Italy. If Elena's family hadn't happened, she would probably still be in Italy for graduate school right now.
Mikey stopped drinking coffee, momentarily surprised:
- Does that mean she's in the middle of graduate school?
- Yes, her parents and brother were murdered. Her parents died because of her injuries, and her younger brother was saved, but she was in a coma in the hospital and did not wake up, so she had to drop out of school and return home. Now she is working hard day and night to earn money to keep her brother alive in the hospital. As long as there is no money, her brother will die.
Mikey muse:
- Who murdered her family? Has the police investigated yet?
- It's been almost five months but it's still not investigated, this case is quite confusing. I asked my friend who works at the prosecutor's office, but he said he doesn't have any clues yet. Because Elena goes to school far away and has been away from home for a long time, It seems the killer is unaware of her existence.
- So she's in a situation where she could be in danger at any moment?
- I don't know about this, but the killer probably won't do it while being investigated. But...
- But what?
- Somehow her relatives took over the family business, leaving Elena without any inheritance from the company. She had to sell her house and car, and use both her parents' insurance and all her assets to pay off her bank loans. It can be said that in just one night, she went from a noble lady to a proletarian and had to work hard to earn a huge amount of money to maintain her brother's life.
- Since when did she come to work for us?
"About four months ago, he hadn't been here yet. In the first quarter of her job, she headed the Marketing department in terms of sales. Her ability to deal with and take care of her customers is quite good. She indeed graduated with honors in Italy, perhaps studying psychology, so she speaks so skillfully that customers always rate her as "excellent".
Mikey pondered, he sighed in front of his assistant without realizing it. Luck was surprised:
- Do you need to investigate more about Elena's private life?
Mikey waved his hand and shook his head.
- That's enough, you go to work.
As Luck turned his back to the door, Mikey was instructed again:
- The thing that I investigated about Elena and let the third person know, is that you should not be at the company any more!
Luck nodded and smiled, raising his hand in salute:
- Don't worry, boss, your boss's business is my business, even if I beat you to death, I won't say it.
Luck was gone, and Mikey's face was filled with sorrow again. Elena had to go through such suffering, but when the two met again he did not hesitate to insult her. He's such a useless man, when Elena was at her worst he wasn't there...
Try to banish your thoughts. Mikey got up and took the key and rushed out of the company, he ran so fast that the secretary could barely speak.
On the road with many different cars running, Mikey drove the car very fast, like he was being chased by a ghost. He just drove his car into the garage and immediately ran to the elevator, Mikey's hand kept pressing the open button. Mikey waited a few seconds, the elevator was still busy. He chose to go up the stairs.
Mikey rushed to his friend's clinic, and arbitrarily pushed the door in without knocking. The doctor didn't even need to look up to know who the person who appeared was. He said in a mocking tone:
- Looks like today is not your appointment. Before you sit down, please close the door for me.
Mikey turned around and closed the door behind him, then plopped down in his chair. The young doctor got up from his seat, he got Mikey a cup of coffee and put it in front of him, when he saw Mikey's tense face, David joked:
- Has your disease changed?
Mikey finished his coffee in one gulp, shook his head, and said:
- I met her again.
David was very excited to hear the story. He pulled up a chair next to Mikey, the doctor's calm face staring into Mikey's eyes expectantly.
Mikey took a deep breath and then continued:
- We slept together last night.
Mikey said sadly:
- But she... seems to have forgotten about me.
The calmness of the doctor named David suddenly disappeared, his eyes revealed a surprise:
- Are you sure it's her?
- Do you think I could be mistaken?
David stood up, he couldn't believe what he had just heard:
- Maybe she feels sorry for you so she's acting this way on purpose.
- I used to think so too, but it's not. She really forgot about me. She hasn't looked for me in a month, met me in the elevator today and pretended not to know me.
David sat at the table, facing Mikey questioningly:
- She must have hit something. Have you investigated yet?
Mikey raised an eyebrow at David.
-You're right, her parents were assassinated, her younger brother was hospitalized. She has to do a lot of work alone to earn money for her brother's medical treatment.
The doctor nodded in agreement.
- Is that why she doesn't know you?
David paused for a moment and then asked Mikey:
- What do you want to do next?
Mikey nodded, sat up straight, and looked stern.
- I can pretend I don't know and ask her to be my lover.
David pondered for a moment, then he looked at Mikey and said:
- You can try.
Mikey got up, greeted David, and left as quickly as he had arrived. Returning to the company, Mikey immediately rushed to solve the work piled up on his desk. Luck saw that the big boss was not convenient to ask, but only reported:
- Miss Yan Felix will come this afternoon, so she texted me to tell you to pick her up at six o'clock.
Mikey waved his hand to signal he had heard, then got to work right away. As year-end work grew, Mikey whirled around with corporate papers and reports. He will not be able to sit in this position of general manager if within a year he takes office without bringing profits to the shareholders' council.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Luck poked his head in again and said:
- By now you need to go to the airport!
Mikey looked at the watch on his wrist, then got up wearily out of his office. He told his assistant:
- You prepare the file for tomorrow's meeting, I'll be back in a few minutes.
- You should rest tonight, your wife is away from home.
Mikey's face is serious.
- Since when do I need your advice? Please prepare the documents to put on my desk before you run out of work.
Luck took a step aside, and he leaned over to make way for Mikey. Luck watched the shadow of his big boss, he could only shake his head and sigh.
Since Mikey took the position of general manager of L.X Corporation. Mikey's personality has become increasingly difficult to understand. He wasn't like that before. Although Mikey is strict at work, he has never been as crazy about work as he is recently.
Mikey was just driving his car out of the basement when he saw Elena getting on the bus again. He immediately forgot that he had to go to the airport to pick up Yan, but turned around and drove in the opposite direction, slowly following the bus Elena was on. After thirty minutes, Elena got off the bus and entered a cafe, it's called NT.
Mikey sat in his car waiting, but he waited a long time without seeing Elena return. So Mikey got out of the car and walked into the cafe to find Elena.
He had just gone up to the second floor when he saw her in a waitress uniform and she was cleaning the table.
Mikey was wrong, she didn't come here for coffee. He chose a seat in the corner, Elena finished cleaning that table and then passed this place. She was startled when she saw the guest sitting in front of him. Elena felt flustered but she quickly regained her composure and continued to go to the next table to clean up.
Finally, it was the turn of the table where Mikey was sitting. Elena bowed politely and asked:
- Have you ordered drinks at the counter yet?
- Will you help me?
- What would you like to drink?
- No problem, I'm here to see you.
Elena stopped moving, she was surprised then quickly put on the standard staff smile for customers, answering Mikey:
- Sorry, I'm at work so I can't talk to you.
Elena bowed her head apologetically, she just turned to walk away when Mikey grabbed her hand:
- I will hire you for an hour, how much do people pay you, I will pay you ten times that?
Elena decisively withdrew her hand from Mikey's, her face calm with the standard waitress' smile:
- Sorry, our cafe does not have a reception menu, you can find this type of service elsewhere.
Elena had just turned away when her wrists were clenched once more, the hot blood in her body rushing to her head.
Elena jerked her hand away, a voice low enough for Mikey to hear.
- Can't you break me? I need this job to make money so go home, I'm begging you.
She ran out of patience.
Mikey slowly raised his eyes to look around the cafe, then he looked back at the person who kept rejecting him, he was a little angry.
At this time, the restaurant does not have many customers. Prove Elena lied.
As soon as he wanted to say something, his phone rang for an incoming call. There was a hint of disappointment on Mikey's face, but he couldn't refuse the call so he let go of Elena's hand and accepted the call.
Taking the opportunity of Mikey to answer the phone, Elena quickly escaped, she went to the cashier to change the shift for another employee to rest.
Mikey saw Elena's runaway figure, he smiled, paying little attention to the phone call:
- I was going to pick you up when I had an emergency, so I couldn't come to you. Can you take a taxi home? I'll go home now and cook dinner for you, okay?
