Chapter 780 - Their Relationship Is Strange

A nudge on his ribs made Randy wake up from his daydream. His lips instantly let out a groan in pain and his hands stroked his ribs. He looked away from Chloe then looked at Lisa and Oscar in turn.

"Ha… hahaha…" Randy replied awkwardly, "It's not like that. It's not like what you think. Did you say that Mrs. Chloe was a good boss in Jakarta? No, no! Personally, I think being Mr. Oscar's personal assistant would be much better than being her personal assistant!"

Nobody knew what possessed Randy's body to make him dare to say that in front of Chloe. Just as those words finished leaving his lips, Randy felt like he saw a white glint in his eyelids.

At that very second, Randy knew that his time was near.

But everything had already happened. There was nothing Randy could do but wait for the consequences of what he had just done.

Hearing Randy's answer made Chloe let out a laugh that sounded fake and forced. The woman was now really looking at the man's side face with a burning gaze. She lifted her foot and stomped on Randy's with the tip of her high heel.

"Oh, really?" Chloe asked in an annoyed tone, still with her fake smile and a firm stomp on Randy's feet. "You think Oscar is better than me?"

Being treated like this in front of Oscar and Lisa made Randy look down, feeling very embarrassed. As a man who has a burly body but doesn't dare to fight a woman who is much smaller than him… Randy is really embarrassed!

In his heart, Randy really wanted to slap himself until his cheeks were bruised and bleeding. Why did he answer Chloe's question like that!?

"No, I'm just kidding, hahaha..." Randy finally replied. Again, he let out a fake and forced laugh, "Of course Mrs. Chloe is the best boss in Indonesia! Every day, Mrs. Chloe always takes good care of me, and never gets me into trouble at my job."

As if not satisfied with Randy's answer, Chloe still stepped on his feet while raising her eyebrows.

Randy couldn't do anything and could only continue, "B-besides, I'm also happy to work as Mrs. Chloe's personal assistant…"

As time went on, his voice grew smaller and smaller. The pain in his legs made the man's voice tremble and his face looked like someone was in pain.

Even though Randy had not spoken and now the topic of their conversation had changed, Chloe's heel still faithfully stepped on Randy's foot. When the three of them paid him no more attention, Randy whispered in the woman's ear.

"Mrs. Chloe… can you please let go of my—"

Hearing Randy's request made Chloe quickly remove her foot from Randy's. She was so happy and had so much fun talking to Lisa and Oscar that she forgot to take her stomp off Randy's foot.

At the same time, Oscar wanted to go home with Lisa as soon as possible. He didn't want Lisa's innocence to be tarnished by talking to Chloe for too long. From earlier, he actually wanted to take Lisa home, it's just that Chloe and Lisa looked like they didn't want to be far from each other.

"Alright," Oscar interrupted in the middle of Lisa and Chloe's conversation. "Chloe, you can eat here. Don't forget to apologize to the waiter you blamed. We're going home first, enjoy your dinner here."

Before Chloe could react and stop Lisa from rushing home and disappearing from there, Oscar had already grabbed Lisa's hand.

"Ah," Liss could only turn her head and wave her hand, "See you later, Chloe. Enjoy your dinner! And, oh, happy birthday, Randy!"

Chloe squeaked in annoyance when she saw Oscar pulling Lisa's hand. Randy stood behind him, looked down and thanked Lisa.

"Geez, I'm not done talking yet. Why did he have to take Lisa away? What an asshole!" Chloe grumbled in annoyance, "Don't you think so, Randy?"

"Ah? Yes, Miss Chloe."

On the way home, Oscar and Lisa enjoyed the silence that surrounded them in the car. Oscar's left hand gripped Lisa's while his other hand remained on the wheel. He didn't care if his or Lisa's hand was sweating, the important thing was that they could continue to touch like this.

The incident earlier at a steak restaurant that had exorbitant prices made Lisa speechless. She was trying to guess what was really going on between Chloe and Randy. She thought their relationship was strange.

When Oscar's car was stuck at a red light, Lisa turned and saw Oscar's side face. "Hey, do you think the relationship between Chloe and her assistant is a little weird?"

Hearing Lisa's question made Oscar turn his head quickly. At first, he thought that Lisa had fallen asleep because her grip on his hand had loosened over time.

Oscar raised his eyebrows, "Her assistant?"

"Yes, what's his name again? Randy?" Lisa replied.

Randy is Chloe's personal assistant that Oscar specially recruited for her, so of course he knew everything about Randy. Starting from where he was born, what university he graduated from in Jakarta, and where he lived. Oscar knew that Randy's background was fine, he also had no cases that could jeopardize the good name of the company and Chloe's.

Even though Randy had no previous work experience, Oscar still preferred him over the other candidates. He was like a blank sheet of paper that had not yet been stained by anything. For some reason, he had a feeling that Randy was a good person who could work under Chloe patiently.

Oscar was silent for a few seconds, trying to understand Lisa's question earlier.

"Hmm? Why are you thinking this way? Oscar finally asked.

"Well, it's just my hunch. As women, we can tell if a man has his eyes on us, or if he doesn't take interest in women around them. And usually… my hunches are always right," Lisa replied. "I think the relationship between Chloe and Randy is a little weird."

Hearing that made Oscar chuckle a little. In his eyes, he saw that Randy was just a pet who had lost his home. Meanwhile, Chloe is a cruel housewife who is happy when the payday arrives. He saw it with his own eyes how Chloe stepped on Randy's feet because the man didn't immediately answer her question.

Besides, how could they possibly like each other? 

"Ah, you're just thinking too much," Oscar replied after he stopped chuckling.. "I think they're just a boss and a personal assistant."
