After Being Cheating novel Chapter 104

Shirley also happily hugged her. "Janet, let me have a look at you!"

Janet dragged her to a seat and then picked for her some of the best-selling cookies her shop had.

"Janet, you're more beautiful than ever! Your face is shining, just like... you're in love with someone!" After tasting the Tiramisu, Shirley looked at her even more closely. Yes, she was in a good mood and she looked very shiny. 'She must surely be in love with someone!' Shirley thought.

Janet's face then turned red when she remembered of him. She sighed, and said, "I'm not in love with anyone, but actually I just... fell in love with someone."

Shirley stopped eating, and said, "Fall in love with someone? Doesn't he love you back?"

'How could he not love back this cute little girl?'

Janet held her face in her hands and shook her head. "I don't know, " she said.

'I can't figure out whether he loves me or not. If he doesn't, why is he with me every night? But if he does, why does he have another girlfriend. Maybe I'm just his bed-friend. Oh, how pathetic!'

"Who is he? Is he that CEO you mentioned of last time?" Shirley had crossed out all the CEOs she had seen on the TV. None of them would match Janet, except for Daniel.

He already had a girlfriend.

That was impossible! It was said that he was like his brother.

'But who is he?' pondered Shirley.

"Let him go. Let destiny have it's way." Janet forced herself to forget about him in her mind. She then turned to Shirley, and said, "Why are you doing here?"

Shirley smiled, and said "I came just to visit you, and to know about how you're doing these days. You're the boss of the shop, and it seems that you run it pretty well!"

"I try my best! I'm very busy most of the time. Shirley, how about becoming my manager next year?" Although Daniel had employed her as the manager, she thought she need one more.

"Really? Me? Be your manager? But I haven't worked a day since I graduated. I won't handle the pressure!" Shirley shook her head and rejected Janet. 'But the Tiramisu is really good...' she thought.

When she was in the university she had shared a room with Janet, but they had majored in completely different fields. She had majored in Enterprise Management, and the school had already offered her a job in this field, but she had to reject it because of her then upcoming marriage.

"So what? You majored in Enterprise Management, and you can learn from the another manager. I believe you can do it." Janet had no experience in management, so the shop was always a mess. But now it was better, since Daniel had found her a competent manager.

Shirley was moved by Janet's offer because she had tried to find a job in the past, but had found nothing suitable for her skills in return.

"So, how about having a go at it next year?" She tried her best to agree with Janet's offer.

Janet held her hands happily on hers, and said, "Okay, okay. You're talented, and if it weren't for Walter..." She immediately stopped speaking when she saw Shirley's face changing.

"I... Shirley... I shouldn't have mentioned him. I'm sorry." She said this unintentionally, and she couldn't imagine how much had Walter really hurt Shirley.

Shirley looked at the fork in her hand and then shook her head. "I don't know what happened to Walter after. I only saw him once at the gates of my house, warning everybody that passed by not to bully my family..."

"That might be because he turned good. But Shirley, how are you now?" Janet didn't mention that she had beat Walter quite seriously, and instead just cared about Shirley's current health for now.
