Chapter 451 - Picking Up William

After Lisa put the document on the table, Surya glanced at the pile of papers. He just nodded his head and didn't say anything else. His annoyance towards the woman had not disappeared even though it had been a long time. How could he not, his face and body still ached from his wife's deadly blow!

Last week was the worst day Surya had ever experienced. That was the first time he got a punch and a powerful kick from his wife. Usually, they never get to play hands whenever they fight. They just argue or shut each other out for a few days. 

Worse yet, his children were also annoyed with him, so they just watched when his wife beat him to a pulp! Whether it's at the dining table or even in the living room, Surya's wife's deadly blow never stops. And never once did his children try to defend him, even kept silent and did not stop their mother's actions.

If Surya knew things would turn like this, he wouldn't have approached Lisa! Ever since he approached the new employee, there's always been trouble. Starting from his blazer and shirt that was stained with coffee to his bruised body all due to his wife's actions.

"Okay, then I'll see myself out first, sir."

Lisa's voice that sounded fine made Surya even more annoyed! Why was he the only one who had to have bad days while that woman wasn't affected at all?

When Lisa was about to open the door to Surya's room, she heard the man's deep voice from behind.

"Don't think our problem is over, Lisa. Don't think I'm going to give you that big project after what you did to me the other day! I'm still your boss, so don't expect me to promote you in the future."

Lisa took a deep breath when she heard Surya's threatening tone. What the man said was true. In the company where Lisa earns a living, Surya is her boss. If the man really had bad intentions, he could have come to a higher-up in this company, or even the CEO of Better Life and slandered her.

However, Lisa didn't want to show that she was afraid of his threat. Instead, she turned around and emphasized, "I had to do that because you were annoying and teasing me at work! If you hadn't teased me, why would I be willing to do that to you?"

"Teasing you? What do you mean I tease you at work? Don't speak carelessly, you bitch! Remember, I could have made your life miserable in this office because of what you did to me the other day!"

Surya frowned, "Don't tell me you feel harassed just because I gaze at your chest? Gosh, you really are an example of a stupid woman! That's not called harassing, but enjoying the view. You and your female friends will scream every time you see a man with good looks and nice abs, right? It's all the same as what I did!"

If Lisa didn't remember that Surya was her boss, her fist would definitely land on the man's jaw. Enjoying the view? Lisa was sure she'd very much enjoy the view of Surya getting beaten by his wife!

'This bald person is crazy, when I see Oscar's nice abs, I don't even scream! At most, my cheeks just turn red, but I don't even scream like crazy!' Lisa denied in her heart.

"You-" Suddenly, Surya raised his hand, "You just go out there. I'm tired of dealing with women like you."

Lisa nodded her head, "Fine. I'm going out first."

As soon as she sat back at her desk, she immediately flashed a reminder in her mind to be careful at work. She shouldn't let a trivial matter ruin her job and lose the source of her income.

Now Lisa understands why no woman wants to enter Surya's room. Whether it's just to deliver documents or send gifts from guests. They always have a reason to refuse anyone's request to enter Surya's room.

It's no wonder that ever since Lisa worked here and stayed in Surya's room for a long time, many pairs of eyes looked at her with suspicious gazes. They must have thought that she had an affair with Surya!

Lisa is an independent woman in her 30s. She also has a child and an ex-husband. But in terms of appearance and body shape, she is not inferior to the other girls! Her body is still thin and slender, her face is clean of acne scars, and her walk is still straight like a top model.

"Hope things will get better."

When lunch time arrived, Lisa suddenly missed her only child. It had been a long time since she had heard the boy's laughter. And it had been a long time since she had seen William in person. The last time she saw her son was a few days ago through her cell phone's screen. One night around 11 o'clock, Oscar called her and said that William was cranky and didn't want to sleep.

With a pitiful face William said how much he missed his mother. At that moment, Lisa felt her heart break. But she couldn't do anything because her work was still piling up on the her desk. 

Now that Lisa's work is almost done, she decides to pick up the boy at school. She didn't want to shock Oscar with her arrival, that's why she chose to inform the man first.

Time went by slowly and Lisa didn't know what to say to him. Now their relationship has become awkward after their hot kiss on her ex-husband's bed. Her heart still beats fast every time the memory flashed through her mind.

Finally, after staring at her phone's screen for a long time, Lisa sent Oscar a short message. She only said that she would pick up William from school, take him out to eat, then take him home after this.

Even at lunch break, the man hadn't seen the message she sent him. And when it was time to leave her office, there was still no sign of a reply from the man.

Some of her coworkers finally left one by one from their desks, and not long after that, she received a short message from Oscar.. The wide smile on her lips instantly disappeared when she read the short reply from the man.
