Chapter 168 Almost Vomiting Blood 1
Chapter 168 Almost Vomiting Blood 1
Back to the company, just busy for a while, it is time to get off work.
"Nina, you are not here this afternoon. We have a department dinner today. I forgot to inform you."
Department assistant Eva comes over, "It's in the Cozyroom near the company. Eat first, then sing."
"Eva, please tell Mr. Lauren that I won't go." Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
Nina is in a bit of a dilemma. Getting entangled with Lucien for a while in the afternoon, she has still
some work to be finished. She intends to work overtime in the evening.
Eva hesitates for a moment, "OK, let me talk to him."
As soon as Eva leaves, Raymond Lauren's internal telephone comes in.
"Nina, why don't you join in the collective activities?"
Nina is very powerless. Only eating and singing, how can it rise to the height of collective activities?
Just about to open her mouth to explain, Raymond says again, "You have just joined the company, so
you'd better take part in more group activities and get familiar with colleagues earlier."
Raymond pauses, "Besides, I also hope you can go."
He says the last words quickly and in a small voice, and Nina doesn't hear it clearly. She just thinks the
first few words of Raymond are reasonable. She nods, "Well, I'll shut down the computer and go to
dinner."
The Cozyroom is not far away from J&Y Group. Nina and her colleagues walk all the way, talking and
laughing. Eva has booked two big rooms in advance. After the buffet, everyone begins to play dices,
drink and sing.
Nina has been abroad for five years. She could hardly sing the domestic popular songs, so she carries
a drink and listens to others quietly.
"Nina, why don't you sing?" Raymond comes and sits beside Nina.
"Em, I am not good at singing. Mr. Lauren, you sing very well!" Nina says sincerely. Raymond has just
sung a very touching love song, and he is so devoted that everyone applauds.
"Is it?" There is a glimmer of smile in Raymond's eyes.
Nina suddenly feels a little uneasy. The mood in Raymond's eyes is too obvious. She is not dull, and
she can feel it.
She looks elsewhere and nods smilingly, but she cannot help blushing a little.
Her cheeks are as white as jade, with two looming red halos on them, her eyelashes are dense and
long, and her eyes are fluttering like butterfly wings. She looks very charming. Raymond looks at her
fondly, and the love in his eyes increases.
It's more than 11 o'clock after the song. Everyone is going home.
"Nina, let me drive you home!" Raymond looks at her. It is a rare chance. He wants them to get closer.
"Don't bother, my home is very close to here. I'll just take a ride back." She quickly declines his
suggestion.
All the colleagues around have left one after another, only Nina and Raymond are left.
Raymond insists, "How can I do that? It's so late, and it's not safe for you to go back alone. It's not far,
anyway. I'm on my way, too."
The light comes from his side. From this point of view, Raymond's tall nose, the corner of his mouth
with smile, and the eyes on the bridge of his nose look a little similar to Troy.
Nina's heart gives a great leap, staring at Raymond's face almost obsessively.
Raymond is a little embarrassed by the expression in her eyes. He pushes his glasses and smiles,
"Nina, is there anything on my face?"
Nina just realizes that she has looked at Raymond's face infatuatedly for some time a moment ago.
"Er, no, no... Nothing..." She averts her eyes awkwardly and feels a light sadness.
Troy...
She hasn't heard from him for a long time. Troy and Abby should have been married, right? And they
have a lovely baby, living a happy family life...
Nina and Raymond are both silent, and the air is full of ambiguities.
Across the road, there is a black SUV. The window is half open. The smog rises slowly from the
window, and the red light of cigarette butt reflects a man's dark eyes as sharp as a blade.
"Let's go, Nina." Raymond starts to pull her arm.
Nina is so beautiful and mysterious tonight, letting Raymond's heart surging violently.
Nina is still immersed in the sad mood and follows Raymond to the car without objection.
The black SUV, following Raymond's car like a ghost, drives up the broad main road.
Nina's home is not far away. Although Raymond tries to drive slowly, they soon reaches the downstairs
of her house.
"Thank you, Mr. Lauren! I need to get off now. Be careful on your way." Nina expresses her thanks with
a smile and opens the door to get off.
