Ex-boyfriend's Crazy Pursuit

I took ten days off and a lot of work in the company was delayed.

When my boss Abel saw me coming back, he was so moved that he almost cried.

"Celina, are you feeling better? Are you sure you can go back to work?"

I laughed.

"It was just a minor surgery, and I'm almost recovered."

Abel looked me up and down, confirmed that I looked good and suitable to continue to join the ranks of company's slaves, and pulled me into the office.

"Would you like to reconsider the branch office matter?"

Half a year ago, opening a branch in City A was already on the agenda, but the candidate for general manager has remained undecided.

Originally, Abel wanted me to go.

But Chad and I have planned to get married at the end of the year, and once we get married we have to prepare to have children. If I go to City A, Chad and I will be in different places.

So I politely declined Abel's offer.

Now I have almost prepared all the preliminary matters for the start-up, except for the general manager to take office.

This time, I didn't hesitate and agreed to Abel directly.

"I accept it."

He stood up excitedly and shook my hand.

"Then let's do as we said before and give you 30% of the shares!"

I thought about it and made a request.

"I'll add some more capital and get a 49% stake, how about that?"

Abel's eyes lit up when he looked at me.

"no problem!"

"I thought you were going to refuse again. I'm so relieved that you're still willing to fight in the workplace! Otherwise, I'd be wailing and crying for the loss of talent!"

In fact, before my appendectomy, I did plan to gradually shift my focus to my family.

That day, I was busy signing a contract with Abel and discussing various matters regarding the branch.

I was busy until dark, then I noticed it was raining outside.

I picked up the phone and saw that Chad had called me more than a dozen times.

I was wondering why he came to me when his phone rang again.

"Celina, why didn't you answer the phone or reply to the message? I thought something happened to you."

I was a little dumbfounded. What happened to him?

I haven't been sticking to him like I used to for a few days, and he's actually worried about me?

Last time when it rained so heavily that floodwaters had to be released, he didn't worry about anything happening to me.

"What could possibly happen? It's not like knives are falling from the sky."

The heavy rain at that time was already above our calves. I asked him to wait for me at the subway entrance, but he used this reason to reject me.

"Then why don't you reply to my message? Didn't you always reply immediately?"

"I'm very busy. I don't have time to look at my phone."

In fact, I have always been very busy, but I care about him very much, so when he occasionally takes the initiative to contact me, I jump up from my workstation and reply to him immediately.

Every time I asked him why he didn't reply to my message, he would tell me that he was very busy, unlike me who was bored all day long.

"Have you gone home? If not, I'll come pick you up."

It was raining heavily during the rush hour after get off work, so he definitely wouldn't be able to get a taxi, and I would feel embarrassed to drive his car and ignore him.

"Please come to this restaurant, my parents are waiting for you to have dinner together."

I see.

"Okay, I'll be there in a minute."

When I got to the door of the private room, I heard his mother's voice.

"Chad, don't spoil her every day. Women can't be spoiled! When she comes, I will help you set some rules."

"Auntie, aren't you afraid that Celina will be unhappy if she hears it?"

"Why should I care whether she's happy or not? How can a woman be jealous every day? If Celina had half of you to please me, I wouldn't mind it anymore!"

My hand on the door paused.

It was the first time I realized that Mrs. Andson had such a deep prejudice against me.

"There's no need to set rules for me. If you like Elisabeth, just marry her."

When Chad saw me coming, he panicked a little, stood up and pulled me into the private room. I shook his hand and returned the car keys to him.

"let's breakup!"

Mrs. Andson immediately raised her voice.

"You've already got such a bad temper before you even got married. I used to be too tolerant of you!"

"Chad, if you dare to coax her again, I'll break your legs. I want to see her kneel down and beg you to marry her!"

Thinking about the times Chad had coaxed me, I sneered and left resolutely.

However a figure blocked me.
