Marilyn returned to her senses and looked at Alaina. With some difficulty, she pulled out a faint smile. "Alaina, get your lunch! I'm not hungry now!"
She didn't have the appetite to eat now. She felt very sad and her mind was full of wild thoughts.
She was now in a state of collapse, so she had to adjust her state of mind and finish today's work. She did not like putting things off until tomorrow.
Alaina heard this and said, "Ms. Chapman, it won't do if you don't eat food. I will bring you a sandwich. When you are hungry, you can eat it!"
"Okay! Thank you, Alaina." Marilyn nodded.
Only then did Alaina get up and go out of the office for lunch.
Marilyn was the only one in the office in an instant. She did not pretend to be strong, and she bent on the desk tiredly!
Ever since Marilyn returned here, she felt very tired every day!
A lot of things were urgent, and she always had an unspeakable panic in her heart.
She lay on the desk for a good while before she regained her spirits and started working.
On this day, Marilyn did not do anything, nor did she eat anything. When it was time to get off work, she left the office.
Moreover, Julian had never returned. Marilyn knew that he had gone to hold a shareholder meeting.
As for Malcolm, he had never left the office, nor did he have lunch.
After restraining his emotions, Malcolm continued to work. After he finished what he was doing, he left the office.
Malcolm walked towards Marilyn's office.
When he passed by Sergio, Sergio did not raise his head. Instead, Sergio said indifferently, "Ms. Chapman has already gotten off work."
Malcolm suddenly stopped and looked at him, asking, "How did you know that I was going to find Ms. Chapman?" Was his intention so obvious?
Most of the time, Malcolm would be amazed by Sergio.
Sergio still did not look up. He tidied up the things on his desk and was ready to get off work. "It is needless to think about the answer."
Malcolm was a little bored when he heard this.
To guess Sergio's thoughts would give him a scary feeling.
Malcolm glanced at Marilyn's office. The lights had already turned off and she really left!
Why was she off work so early today?
He was still thinking of sending Marilyn back and comforting her.
Malcolm turned around and walked into his office.
When he walked past Sergio, Sergio looked up at his back and asked calmly and seriously, "Malcolm, are you really serious?" This sentence was held in his heart for a long time.
When Malcolm heard his serious tone, his heart twitched. He quickly turned around and looked at Sergio. His eyes narrowed slightly as he examined Sergio. His tone was also extremely serious. "Sergio, are you serious?"
Sergio's gentle and handsome eyes quietly met his gaze, so calm that Malcolm could not see through his thoughts.
Sergio indifferently replied, "I was serious before."
Malcolm's eyes suddenly narrowed. He was about to speak when Sergio spoke first. "However, I have already given up because you like her."
Malcolm narrowed his eyes.
Malcolm smiled. "Sergio, I didn't expect you to be this way."
Sergio said, "So did I!"
"Thank you!" Malcolm said as he walked into the office.
Sergio suddenly called out to him, "Malcolm, why don't you accompany me to drink?"
Malcolm looked back at him and asked, "It won't be like last time, will it?"
Sergio said, "I know what I'm doing!"
Malcolm said, "Then wait for five minutes."
"Alright!" Sergio said.
Five minutes later, the two left the Lowe Group.
Sergio drove Malcolm to a bar that was exquisitely decorated and high-end.
Sergio ordered the wine he liked and sat with Malcolm on the seat, drinking one glass after another, but neither of them spoke. No one broke the silence between them.
The two formed a world themselves, and everything noisy around them seemed to have nothing to do with them!
When they drank the fifth glass, Malcolm said, "Sergio, you drank so much. You're going to get drunk again tonight!"
He was not as patient as Julian and could accompany him all night.
Sergio shifted his gaze to his handsome face and frowned slightly. "Don't worry! It will be enough if such a thing happens once!" How could he let others slap him in the face again?
Sergio was the top student among the four of them, graduated from the top university, lived the life he wanted, and liked the person he liked.
But...
Sergio felt a bit bitter in his heart.
When Malcolm heard this, he still looked at him quietly, "Sergio, you will meet a better person!" His voice was very pleasant to hear, and there was faint hoarseness in it.
Sergio was a more introverted person than him. He would suppress everything at the bottom of his heart, but on the surface, he was still calm.
No matter how painful Sergio was, he would not reveal a single bit in front of outsiders.
This was Sergio he knew. He had always been like this since he was young.
In other words, Malcolm was the same.
However, he had a way to ease his burden!
When he was young, he liked running to relax. But when he grew up, he enjoyed sports!
The things that Sergio had experienced were not as much as Malcolm had experienced. Sergio had a very warm family, but he had such a silent personality.
In fact, Malcolm also couldn't figure this out.
Malcolm suddenly remembered something and asked him, "When are you going to inherit the family business?"
His three good friends' families were all very rich, all of them had their own companies, and so was Sergio's family.
Sergio picked up the wine glass, raised his head, and drank the wine in the glass. His sexy throat rolled slightly, and his whole temperament was extremely elegant.
There were four or five women sitting around. They were dressed very seductively and could not help but look up at the two of them with infatuation.
Sergio leaned back lazily and lowered his head for a while before saying, "I don't have any plans to go home for now!"
Malcolm smiled. "Alright, then stay by my side and be my secretary!"
Sergio raised his eyes and looked at him coldly. His face was serious, and his mature and restrained aura was immediately displayed. "Malcolm, I know you are happy. Other than me, you can't find a secretary more suitable than me here!"
"Of course!" Malcolm did not deny this.
Sergio smiled and did not speak. Instead, he raised his wine glass and drank another glass of wine.
This time, he was not in a hurry to swallow it completely. He left the wine in his mouth and slowly tasted it between his lips and teeth. His delicate eyebrows revealed a bit of worry.
