Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 140

Isabella's beautiful face immediately turned purple. She didn't even know whether to laugh or get angry. Did he have to be so unromantic?

She laughed coldly, "You really know how to copy blindly. Why didn't you ask your Adrian for advice in advance? To have someone bring me flowers in working hours, do you want me to be gossiped by everyone in the company tomorrow? "

Previously, Shawn's behaviour had already made her feel repulsed. But he was her client, so she naturally wouldn't say anything. 

"He said women are all into such romantic scene."

"…"

Isabella choked once again and gritted her teeth in hatred. Did he really asked Adrian about that? 

"Then you can send it to any other women. Don’t bother me. I still need to work."

Hanging up her phone, Isabella bit her lips angrily. 

In a few seconds, Christian called again. This time, Isabella directly pressed the 'decline' button. 

He didn't call back after that. 

At night before they left work, Minh came in her office and handed her a written request for leave.

Glancing at him, Isabella lowered her head to sign her name and pretended to casually asked: "Where do you live now?"

She only sent him to an intersection last time but didn't ask where he exactly lived. 

Originally, she had no right to interfere in such private matters as his superior. However, since he'd voluntarily told her about his story, she could ask him as a normal friend and concern about him. 

Minh laughed as usual: "What, do you want to send me back, Miss Jones?"

Isabella raised her eyebrows. Then she nodded and didn't seem to be joking, "Sure, wait a minute."

Minh was startled a bit, but quickly smiled: "I was just joking. I need to go somewhere else first and it won't be convenient for you to send there."

"It's getting so late. Where are you going?" Isabella blurted out those words, but she quickly felt it may be a little inappropriate and unnaturally turned her gaze away. 

Minh suddenly laughed out loud, and his handsome face revealed some vitality, "Isabella, you can't be thinking that I'm gonna do some stupid things, can you?"

Isabella's expression froze. She laughed dryly: "Err … No, I'm just asking. If it's out of your way, then it's fine. Go home early and don't stay outside too late."

Minh gave her a deep look and smiled warmly, "Sure."

...

When Isabella went out her office, Minh had already left. With a heave heart, she bumped into Luke downstairs her company.        

Being a little startled, she then smiled, "Luke, why are you here?"   

They hadn't seen each other for a few days. Every time he wanted to see her, she rejected, as she hadn't known how to make things and her feelings clear to him.   

"I came to see you." Luke smiled warmly as usual, as if he could calm down everything.    

Just as Isabella was about to reply, someone suddenly came out from behind him. He looked at Luke curiously and whispered: "Miss Jones, this should the man who sent you flowers at noon, shouldn't he?"          

Although his voice was quite low, everyone present could still hear him.      

Luke glanced at her, without any change on his face.
