Chapter 271
I looked at Harrison and asked, "Since you went to the company to pick me up, why didn't I see you? Why didn't you call me?"
"Is it because I don't contact you, or you and Louie have forgotten the existence of others there? Please figure it out" Harrison said coldly.
His words made me confused. After thinking about it carefully, I realized that there was basically no one working overtime in the company. After I finished my work, I found that Louie was in the company, so I chatted for a while. It was estimated that Harrison would come to see me at that time.
But I really didn't understand why he said that he didn't contact me.
"I'm telling you, Chelsea. As long as I'm not bored, don't think about running to him, and don't think about wandering around us!"
"What are you talking about!" I said angrily,
"Staying around? When did I start wandering around?"
Harrison let go of his hands and stood up straight, looking at me. 'I'll only say these words once."
After that, he turned around and went up. And I, who was standing at the door, was really forgotten.
An idea flashed through my mind. I took out my phone from my bag and quickly turned it on. I pressed it for a long time, but there was no response. I turned it off, but the screen lit up and quickly turned it off.
I realized that it was because the phone was automatically turned off, so I didn't receive Harrison's call. He said that he would contact me and I would go to any reaction. I believed that when he called me, he would definitely stand with me and chat with Louie.
Having understood all this, I quickly went up to the second floor and went to the study. I knocked twice on the door and whispered to the person in front of me, "Harrison, I have something to tell you"
"I don't have time," Harrison replied.
Hearing his words, I said again, "It just delayed you for a while. I already know why you didn't contact me. It turned out that my phone was automatically turned off, so I didn't hear it!"
I explained hastily, hoping that Harrison could hear what I said.
Because there were too many misunderstandings caused by coincidence, I didn't want to be like Harrison. Since I already knew that it was a misunderstanding, I might as well explain it clearly instead of staying where I was. But obviously, he was different from what I thought.
No matter how I explained outside the study and how my phone was turned off, Harrison in the study didn't respond at all. He stood outside from beginning to end, as if he was talking to the air.
I knocked on the door and continued, "Harrison, are you listening to me? This is a complete misunderstanding. Louie and I have nothing..."
Halfway through my sentence, the door suddenly opened and I stopped talking.
Harrison stood at the door and looked at me quietly. I stood in front of him, but I lost the courage to insist on explaining because I saw indifference from his seriousness. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
"Chelsea, don't make things too clear," Harrison said lightly.
I shook my head. "I don't understand."
"Well, I'll make it clear to you," he replied with a faint smile.
Somehow, I felt very cold, as if a gust of cold wind had blown into my body, making me feel cold from inside out.
Before Harrison could speak, I quickly said, "There was a misunderstanding today. Normally, my phone was not turned off. I just worked overtime in the company today, so the charging time just happened to be out of power."
"Then why did you work overtime?" Harrison asked with a smile.
"Abbie asked me if I had prepared anything, so...
He chuckled and said to me, "The task assigned by the company has not been completed. In my memory, you will never give up a small thing about work. It's not like you."
I can tell from his tone that he doesn't trust me, but I can't blame him for anything. It's just because of the reason that I know it very well!
Since I started working, no matter when I was with Harrison, as long as there was a conflict with work problems, I would choose to work without hesitation. Harrison had been angry with me for this, but I always responded with one sentence: "Without work, I can't calm down."
After understanding what I was thinking, Harrison no longer interfered with his work, and he even helped me with my work. But now that I said that the task Abbie gave me had not been completed, of course he refused to believe it.
I said anxiously, "No, my boss used to be Boss Liu. Boss Liu never asked for information at first glance, so I thought that Abbie was the same."
"Is that all?" he asked.
I kept nodding. "And there's nothing between Louie and me."
"Then you worked overtime when you didn't do anything. You bumped into Louie by accident and didn't receive my call because of an accident. Is that true?" Harrison asked.
Although I could tell that there was something wrong with her words, I still said, "Well, you should believe that I have nothing to do with Louie. We are just friends."
"I know that you are a friend in your heart, but are you sure that Louie also thinks the same?" He asked in reply.
I looked at Harrison with dissatisfaction and questioned, "What do you mean by that? Is it because Louie likes me, so we can't be friends?"
"If that's the case, then Abbie's love and possessiveness for you aren't even the slightest bit. You've never stayed away from me. What does that mean?" I asked.
In such an awkward situation, any words were irrational. I clearly understood these things, but after hearing Harrison's words, I really couldn't restrain myself.
"If he only suspected me when he saw me working overtime with Louie in the company, would that be the case? I have never mentioned the problem between him and Abbie. If I continue to investigate, it seems that he will have more problems, right?"
Harrison didn't answer my question. He just said, "What else?"
"What's more?" I thought quickly and suddenly thought of someone. "And Ning Jiayi, if you don't pick me up, I'll take her home. Isn't it too much for you to do this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the house became quiet instantly. There was only the two of us in the villa, but now it became even quieter. It was so quiet that it made people feel abnormal.
Harrison stood in front of me, looking at me quietly without saying a word. He didn't say anything or do anything, but I felt very uneasy.
"If I say that I met Ning Jiayi and said that there was an accident, would you believe me?" Harrison asked.
I opened my mouth and subconsciously wanted to say that I didn't believe him, but when I saw his smiling expression, I couldn't say anything.
He stopped smiling and said coldly, "You don't believe it, do you?"
I kept shaking my head. "No, it's not what you think!"
