The engagement was tomorrow so Alvina received her superior's blessings and even gifted her a pair of beautiful and cute dolls as her engagement present. Looking at the two dolls, Alvina felt extremely guilty, so she decided to apologize to this kind superior when he got off work.
After work, Alvina carried a cup of tea and knocked on Penelope's office door.
"Come in!"
Alvina walked in. When she raised her head and saw that it was her, she could not help but ask with a smile, "Tomorrow is your engagement day, why didn't you get off work earlier?"
"Sister Penelope, are you free? I want to talk to you. " Alvina's beautiful face was filled with awkwardness.
Penelope put down the pen in her hand, leisurely walked around the chair, stood up and walked towards her: "What's wrong? There seems to be something on your mind. "
Alvina passed the teacup in her hand to her, and she naturally accepted it, taking a sip. Her sharp eyes swept across Alvina's face: "If there's anything, just say it, don't stutter."
"Sister Penelope, I need to apologize to you. Ever since I came to your department, you have always looked after me and sympathized with me, but I … I lied to you." When Alvina finished speaking, he could not help but lower her head.
Penelope was surprised: "What did you lie to me about? I don't remember anything you've fooled me with. "
"No, what I'm lying to you is not things, but your trust and friendship. I told you before, Joseph Grant doesn't like me, our relationship isn't good, but in reality … We have a pretty good relationship, he doesn't hate me, and I like him a lot. " Alvina anxiously waved her hand, and explained with a blush.
"What?" Penelope was shocked, she circled around Alvina and stared at her: "You lied to me huh?"
"I'm sorry Sister Penelope, I didn't mean to lie to you, I just don't want others to know that our relationship is good, Joseph Grant said that it is dangerous for me, that's why we acted so coldly in front of outsiders." Alvina was so anxious that his eyes were red. She was truly ashamed and uneasy, afraid that Penelope would ignore her from now on.
Penelope suddenly bent her waist and laughed, making Alvina laugh in a baffling manner.
After that, Penelope strongly patted her shoulders twice: "Alright, look at how scared you are. It's not like I'm blaming you, actually, I guessed it right."
"Huh?" This time, it was Alvina who was stunned.
"The last time Joseph Grant came to look for you in the office, I was puzzled. After that, when I saw that you were working every day without worries, I guessed that you guys were intentionally acting outside the office. Have you seen it? " she asked with a malicious smile.
Alvina was surprised and happy, and she was surprised as she did not expect Penelope to not be angry at all.
"Sister Penelope, aren't you angry at me? I lied to you. "
"If it's a white lie, of course I won't be angry, Mr. Vice—President is worried about you, so I have to think of all kinds of ways to protect you, and this is a good thing. You make me trust live. Cheer up. " Penelope comforted her gently.
"Sister Penelope, thank you." Alvina was both moved and grateful. Other than hugging her, it was as if he couldn't find any other words to say.
"Don't, cuddling in the office is not proper." Although Penelope said that, she reached over and hugged her back.
"Sister Penelope, can you come tomorrow afternoon? I really hope you can come over. " Alvina sincerely invited her.
"I'll try my best to get there, and I'll also need to wear a beautiful set of clothes. Perhaps, I might even encounter my second spring." Penelope instantly became young and energetic. She opened the window, and a gentle wind blew in. She sighed with emotion: "In the spring wind, there is the aura of love."
Seeing that Penelope was also looking forward to the arrival of their love, Alvina was happy for her.
"Alright, if there's anything suitable for you tomorrow, you can tell me and I'll introduce it to you." Alvina said while beaming.
Penelope immediately turned her head back and self—deprecatingly said, "Don't do it, otherwise, others will call me old and dishonest."
"Sister Penelope is too modest, I think the main reason why you're single is because you're too outstanding, causing some people to not dare to climb all over you." Alvina said sweetly.
"You really know how to talk, no wonder the Mr. Vice—President treats you as if you're a treasure. Fine, since you're not serious, then don't be serious. I won't listen to any of the nasty words behind those people's back, I'm the happiest myself." Penelope was pleased with her flattery.
Alvina's phone suddenly rang, she looked down and saw that it was Joseph Grant's phone number.
She immediately said to Penelope: "I have to go, Sister Penelope, see you tomorrow."
"Go!" Penelope raised her hand towards her.
Alvina quickly walked out of the office. She saw Joseph Grant's slender body standing outside the door, holding onto a mobile phone.
Alvina walked quickly towards him, and Joseph Grant's gaze instantly became gentle.
"Do you go back?" She had a bashful look on her face as she whispered.
Joseph Grant shook his head: "I might have to go back later. I'll get Warren Hilton to send you back first."
"Are you going to work late? If you aren't going back, then I'm not going back either. Alvina immediately became stubborn.
