Chapter 43 Kiss Me (2/2)
While Emily patted her cheeks with her hands, Jacob stood up to make a call.
”Jack, come to the company right now, ” ordered Jac
y serious.
”Maybe they were caused by mosquitoes. Luckily, it's not a big deal.” Emily didn't think about the matter anymore as she was worrying about another thing at that moment.
Following Emily's reaction, the group leader showed an ”understanding” smile and asked with a cheeky look, ”Then, do you need the Band-Aids now, Miss Bai?”
”No, it would be uncomfortable to cover the wounds with Band-Aids, but thank you anyway.”
Noticing the seriousness in Emily's face, the group leader laughed out and said, ”I'm sure several male employees had their hearts broken today, simultaneously, as they were staring at you and your marks the whole time you've been at the office. You know, most of them have a crush on you...”
Emily was more and more perplexed by her words. As a result, she just responded to her, perfunctorily, before returning to her office quickly.
When she got to her office, Emily became more anxious as she sat down and remembered Jacob's words in the morning.
”My intention? You don't know?”
”I intend on pursuing you, Emily.”
The last line was even more scarier than the last time when Jacob said, ”I want you to be my woman.”
'Is he out of his mind? How could he tell me that he wants to pursue me?' Emily wondered.
Emily was having her breakfast, lost in thoughts, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.
”Rat-a-tat-tat.”
”Come in, please.”
Emily quickly wiped her hands before the door was pushed open by a female colleague, with a large bouquet of bright roses in her hands.
”Miss Bai, someone has sent you flowers, again, ” said the female colleague with an ambiguous smile on her face.
