C88 (1/2)
The meeting room was very large, with at least thirty to forty people sitting around a table, attentively listening to a person speak.
And the person who spoke was David. The reason he shocked me was in two different places, the first was because of his attire.
In the past, David gave me an impression that he was sloppy, like a dispirited artist. But now, he was dressed in a suit and his hair was combed to the point that it looked shiny like a gangster's.
His expression was even more exaggerated, his expression could no longer be described as excited, or to be more accurate, he was ”ferocious.” Indeed, his expression right now was very ferocious, although I could not hear what he said, but I could feel that he was not talking with his mouth, but with his life! It was like the state had been invaded by outsiders, and the revolutionary rebels were passionately and generously rallying the masses.
It was obvious what kind of scene this was. The people below seemed to be possessed, all staring at him with widened eyes, as if they were afraid of missing a single word.
Kelly sighed beside me, ”This is the state he is in everyday.”
Just as I was about to say something, they had already left. Kelly and I quickly left, afraid that we would be seen by him.
On the way back, Kelly looked at her watch and asked me if I was alright. If there was nothing else, we could go out for a cup of coffee.
I didn't want to go at first, I didn't want anyone to see my back being stabbed, and said that I was seducing a married man. But towards Kelly's invitation, I felt too embarrassed to reject it, so after thinking it over, I agreed.
We went to a coffee shop in the center of Baroda and randomly ordered some things.
Because of the high price, the environment was good and there were no people.
In fact, we didn't really talk about David this time, but talked about ourselves instead. From primary school all the way to university, I would tell her about all the interesting things that had happened around us. When I talked about our university military training, how smelly our bed was, and how we didn't even need to light up the incense, by the time I finished, Kelly was already laughing maniacally.
She also told me a lot about herself when she was young, as well as growing up and going to school and working. When she talked about marrying David, she frowned and didn't continue any further.
At the end of the conversation, he inadvertently looked outside the window. The sky was already filled with stars. When he looked at his watch, it was already past 10 PM!
Kelly anxiously took out her mobile phone, ”Oh my god, it's so late, it's all David's call.”
It wasn't until she said this that I realized she had muted her phone while she was talking with me.
She sent me back to the Second Uncle's House, and after bidding me farewell, she quickly left.
When I went back, Second Uncle had just finished working and came from the third floor. He asked me with a gloomy expression, 'Where did I go?'
I said it was nothing, I just went to find Kelly.
I don't care who you're looking for, but you're my employee right now, and you have to take a leave of absence. Go, give Samit a call.
I realised my mistake and hurriedly called Samit. I told him what happened this afternoon, but he hung up without saying anything.
After taking a bath, I laid on the bed and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. Sometimes, I would think of Kieran's cold and merciless face, and sometimes it would be Kelly smiling at me under the golden sunlight, making my head explode. Actually, I suddenly went crazy because of a reason.
If it wasn't for my imagination, in order to have a quiet environment to chat with me, Kelly had even muted her phone so much that she couldn't find her.
I didn't know what she was thinking, but I felt like I was overdoing it.
Just as I was lost in thought, my phone rang. I opened the Facebook page and saw that it was sent by Kieran, asking me where I had gone to.
