Super Sweetheart of the CEO Daddy -
Chapter 1406
In the end, Lily still agreed to go see Larissa. She had interacted with this man for so long, she could roughly see just what kind of person he was. Edwards was definitely not a man who could be bewitched by a beauty.
The news of Alvina and Joseph's engagement had already been confirmed by some other media, and they even said that the Grant family had already visited the Miller Family to propose marriage, and had shared the dinner, and discussed the details of the engagement banquet. This time, the engagement banquet was arranged by the Grant family, and the date was already set, and it would happen in a few days' time.
This matter became more and more confidential, but the two parties seemed to have nothing to do with each other. They were both in the same office, but no one saw the two of them secretly meeting each other. It's all about doing different things. Like strangers, there's no intersection.
Alvina was not someone who needed to be envied by others. On the contrary, she felt more at ease with the people who mocked her.
Those people were looking at her as a joke. They were discussing her behind her back, mocking her, trying to destroy her. They said that She said she was the prey of her own initiative,, yet they had all kinds of loathing towards her. She didn't even pay attention to it.
As long as it didn't affect her normal work, she wouldn't hold a grudge against anyone. After all, a happy life wasn't for outsiders. It's to live for yourself. It's better than anything.
Penelope looked at her newly recruited assistant. When she went to the washroom, she heard a lot of people nagging at her from behind.
Maybe women always liked to sympathize with one another, so the more she looked at Alvina, the more she felt that he was a little pitiful.
So she wanted to help her once.
Penelope could be considered an experienced politician, so she could participate in many occasions while she also participated in quite a few occasions when she interacted with Vice-President and Joseph. Legend has it that Joseph turned a blind eye to his and treated her like nothing. Then what about Alvina?
What did she think? Would she really want to see Joseph, or would she want to talk about her thoughts with him? However, Joseph didn't give her the chance.
Penelope suddenly wanted to give them a chance encounter.
Alvina, I have a meeting with you later. Penelope found a very good opportunity, for this meeting, Joseph would be there to listen to the lecture, and let Alvina go over. At least the two of them had the chance to meet again.
"Alright, Sister Penelope!" Alvina stood up like a standby guard and smiled in agreement.
Looking at her heartless smile, Penelope shook her head like a fool in her heart. No wonder Joseph didn't like her.
How would Alvina know that in front of her superior, she was already synonymous with misery.
She took the elevator to the fifth floor and walked through the spacious corridor. At the end of the corridor, there was a large meeting room. The solemn atmosphere made it hard to breathe.
Alvina had been in the Office for so long, but this was the first time she came to such a strict place that no one dared to breathe deeply. She immediately sat down according to the rules, with her pair of beautiful eyes, not daring to look around.
Penelope turned her head to look at her, and seeing her stiff expression, she kindly reminded her: "Do you know who will come later?"
"Huh?" Alvina did not expect his boss, who was extremely serious, to suddenly tilt her head and whisper to his.
"The Mr. Vice-President will come over!" Penelope asked in a low voice.
"Huh?" Alvina's voice was even louder, causing some people to look over at her. She then seemed to understand something: "Oh!"
Seeing her stupid look, Penelope immediately understood. "What, when we have the chance, we can chat!"
"About what?" Alvina didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Didn't they say that Penelope hated men? Why did he still have to be her mistress? As expected, rumors were not to be trusted.
"He's a Mr. Vice-President, I... I still don't want it! " Alvina understood that Penelope wanted to help her, and she was moved from the bottom of her heart. But, in the Executive Office, she wanted to act as a stranger with Joseph.
"Isn't he your fiancé? Talk to him. What's wrong with that? "Did he never give you a chance to speak?" Penelope was sad for her.
"That's not true either. I've said it before, but ...I can't talk to him! " Alvina laughed awkwardly.
"So what if you get married in the future? He thinks you're air. Do you really want to be invisible?" Penelope couldn't help but cry out for her.
"We can talk after we get married. He thinks I'm air, so I can also treat him as air." Alvina answered, unwilling to be outdone.
"Do you know what marriage is?" Penelope was about to be entangled by her to death.
"Marriage is a way of getting along!" Alvina laughed dryly.
"I finally found the reason why Mr. Vice-President didn't like you!" Penelope had an expression of disappointment.
Alvina lowered his head and laughed incessantly. She could be considered to be extremely intelligent and foolish, but he had to forgive her for not telling the truth to the boss who cared for her. If there was a chance in the future, she would definitely thank her and apologize to her.
With even more people entering the conference room, Penelope did not say anything else.
Alvina suddenly became absent-minded, thinking that she could see Joseph coming over later, her heart jumped.
How strange, she was already so close to him, why did it feel like a girl in love seeing her lover for the first time? Even the air had become thin.
Could it be that she had already fallen in love with this man?
That would be terrible.
As she was thinking, a tall and straight figure walked in. He didn't have any sort of noble demeanor, but the moment he walked in, the entire place went deathly silent. Even the breathing of the crowd slowed down a bit.
Joseph sat down on his seat. The conference room was semicircle in shape and Alvina was sitting in a corner with bright lights. When Joseph looked around, he saw her and his eyes widened slightly. Alvina was naturally also looking at him. There was no helping it, he was the center of attention, it was impossible to not see him.
She noticed that the man's face was slightly stiff. She couldn't help but lower her head and smile. It seemed that he didn't expect her to have the chance to come over.
However, Penelope treated Joseph's stiff expression as a sign of disgust towards him, and she felt even more dissatisfied for the foolish girl beside his.
The meeting was not interrupted by anyone. It was presided over by someone and everything went as usual.
Only Alvina's heart was beating wildly. She was occasionally distracted and in a daze. The pen in her hand, however, seemed to be uncontrollable, and her writing seemed to be crooked, as if it was out of control.
Joseph sat there expressionlessly, and spoke whatever he needed to say. The people he should be lecturing were also lecturing him, but from the beginning to the end, his gaze seemed to have disappeared as he looked at the quiet figure in the corner. They had not met for two days. He did not expect that they would meet again here, where it would quench his thirst for love.
However, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have known that she was sitting amongst the crowd with an indescribable sense of tranquility, beauty, and the elegance of a lady.
It had to be said that Joseph's mood was extremely cheerful, and even his voice had unknowingly become a lot gentler.
The meeting ended after an hour and a half. Alvina followed the crowd and walked out slowly, Penelope turned to look at her and pushed her again, "Go, don't just stand there!"
"Sister Penelope, I... I still won't go! " Alvina was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"What are you afraid of?" Penelope was worried for her.
"I'm not afraid!" Alvina immediately laughed dryly.
"No, why don't you go? In the future, you will have no family status, do you understand?" Penelope spoke to her as if he was scolding her for doing something wrong.
Alvina lowered her head, looking troubled.
Right at this time, Joseph, who had just left ahead of them, suddenly walked towards them.
"He's here!" Penelope saw it first, then, he reminded Alvina.
Alvina froze, she slowly turned her head, only to see Joseph walking towards her with an indifferent expression.
"What's wrong? You got scolded?" The reason why Joseph came over was obviously because he thought Alvina had made a mistake and was scolded by Penelope. That was the reason why he came over to help her.
Alvina's beautiful eyes widened as he looked at him with some astonishment: "Why didn't you leave?"
Penelope immediately said to her: "Alvina, talk properly with Mr. Vice-President. Come back and report to me later. "
Hearing that, Alvina frowned.
