Nigel was dressed very proper, and his face was serious. He looked like he had been working as there was a measuring tool in front of him. He had been earnestly looking at the numbers coming out of the tool, so he did not seem to have noticed Sabrina when she collided onto him.
He looked at Sabrina coldly, his tone calm. "It's you? Don't you see that I’m working? How could you jump into my arms like that? You really are immature!
Private matters should be kept private, and work is work. Next time, especially when I'm working, don't pull these little tricks.”
His tone did not seem like he was joking, nor did it seem like he was intentionally putting Sabrina down. He had just been engrossed in his work, that when she bumped into him, he got distracted.
Sabrina pursed her lips. "I'm sorry!”
Saying that, she lowered her head and walked past Nigel and toward the construction site. She had wanted to tell Nigel that she would get her salary in two days and once she got it, she would be able to return the three thousand bucks to Nigel.
However, when Sabrina saw that Nigel was engrossed in his work and was being impatient, she said nothing. She walked towards the site instead.
It was only when Sabrina had walked a distance, did Nigel relax slightly. Looking at Zayn who was in the car, he yelled, "Zayn, come over!” 1
Zayn got out of the car. "Nigel, your acting earlier was really like an engineer. Since when did you learn how t o act like that? It was too real!”
