The CEO’s Lovely Wife - Chapter 235
October looked at Assistant Yu who had frozen stiff in his place outside of the elevator. It was clear to see that he was terrified and his complexion was terrible. It was not only him for some employees were not looking good also.
She was skeptical about this. Did she say something that ominous? Or was her face that scary? She unconsciously touched her face but felt that it was okay. But what does those looks they are using?
“Yu, what are you waiting there for? Let’s go.” She said, her voice as flat as it could devoid with emotions.
“Ah…yes!” Assistant Yu, having been called, straightened up and scrambled his feet to enter the elevator with October and Lu Xing who was busy eyeing October. After that, he pressed the number to Lexus’ office.
‘Unlucky. Why am I so unlucky these days?’ Assistant Yu complained in his mind with his bleeding heart. He wanted to cry but don’t have tears. So pitiful.
October noticed the burning gaze that was staring at her from the person next to her. However, she remained unconcerned about it as she remained her cool and calm façade. The only thing was that she really does not want to look at Lu Xing or she might do something to her on impulse.
As soon as the elevator where October, Assistant Yu, and Lu Xing was at closed and lifted up, the lobby broke out into a loud commotion.
“What, what? This is such a coincidence. I don’t know if this is a good thing or a bad thing. But still, I am really curious of what will happen to them.”
“Yes. Do you have someone you know who works at the top floor to give us some update?”
“No, I don’t.”
“Oh, I know someone. I’ll try to contact her to give us some real-time update.”
“Haha. This is so exciting. Wife versus fiancé, who do you think is the winner?”
“Psh. Isn’t it obvious. Of course it is the wife.”
“Well, I think that the fiancé is quite cute.”
“Are you blind and deaf? Haven’t you all heard about what happened to that Lanlan girl who offended the wife? Do you want to be like her?”
All of the gossiping people fell silent and soon shuddered in horror. No. They do not want to offend that wife. Just from how their boss handled that Lanlan girl was enough to let them know of his unconditional pampering of his wife and it also served as a sort of a warning to them.
Having been fired from the company, got filed with a complaint for not practicing company protocols, got chased by creditors, and got blacklisted by companies…
Wasn’t this the same as sentencing them to die?! No, they would rather want to keep their freedom and enjoy their lives silently than cause a commotion that would ruin their whole life.
“Are you an investor here in my fiancé’s company? You are really sensible so I like you. However, what I am dissatisfied with is your face; it is too offensive for the eyes.” Lu Xing started to say with an annoyed look on her stunning face while eyeing October. The more she see, the more she think that she was inferior to October, not only by looks but also in temperament.
But she just could not stomach that and even if you would beat her up a hundred times with a wooden plank, she will never admit it out loud that October was more beautiful than her.
October’s eyes flickered ever so slightly at the word “fiancé” that came out of Lu Xing’s mouth. No matter, she was so irritated that her clenched fists trembled. She was fighting hard not to lose her cool and end up slapping the woman beside her senseless.
‘No, no, no. This is not normal. My thinking has been becoming more vicious lately.’ Even though she said that, October just could not stop her boiling anger.
“Hey, are you listening to me?” Lu Xing turned her whole person and faced October with her arms folded over her c.h.e.s.t. She straightened her back, raised her chin arrogantly, and pressed her twin mounds up to emphasize it. She wanted to show how beautiful she was.
Lu Xing snorted. She was sure that October was afraid of offending her and just chose to not talk to her. However, she was still very angry that was laced with envy at October’s flawless face.
“After you two accompany me to my fiancé’s office door, you all can just scram. I don’t want you to destroy my reunion with him.” She flipped her hair contentedly after saying her piece before turning around to face the elevator door.
Lu Xing was so excited that her whole aura became bouncy and pink with affection as she think of her reunion with her beloved. If they would meet, what would she do at that time?
Should she slowly went up to him and shyly look at him? Should she hug him? Should she run to him and jump into his open arms?
Lu Xing was playing a lot of situations in her mind and her face became so hot and red in embarrassment. She put her hands on her cheeks to try and cool it down but it was really useless.
But before that, what should she call him? Just Lexus or Lex? How about honey, darling, my love, or…husband?
*Poof*
Lu Xing covered her blushing face with her hands.
October cast a cold look on Lu Xing who was blushing furiously. She had to control herself from exploding from anger. She closed her eyes for a moment to calm the storm in her albeit so hard to do. However, she still gritted her teeth and diverted her gaze on the slouching man standing on the side with his head hanging low. As if noticing October’s gaze on his, he suddenly lifted his frustrated face looking so pitiful and a face drained of color.
But what made October baffled was that Lexus had a grandma aside from the mother and father-in-law.
After the stale atmosphere in the elevator, the door had finally opened for the three to step out of there.
After walking for only a short moment, the three had finally arrived in front of the mahogany double doors of Lexus’ office. It had intricate carves that outlined the door, making it look luxurious and elegant yet imposing.
Lu Xing was so excited that she opened the double door in haste and was immediately greeted with such a broad shoulder and narrow waste. He was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window while basking in the afternoon sun. It was so breathtaking that Lu Xing held her breath and stared at her beloved with full of emotions. She was so overwhelmed by the sight before her.
Her heart made a loud thump in her c.h.e.s.t and soon enough, he saw him turn his face. Then, his eyes turned to her and his ocean blue eyes that was as deep as the sea sparkled followed by a stunning smile that gripped her heart so sweetly…this was the smile for her. This was the look solely for her.
Lu Xing’s eyes widened in awe and her face was dyed with pink. She did not notice that October and Assistant Yu had even entered the office and that October was standing beside her with a silent glare directed at Lexus.
‘This…I have finally met you again.’
“My wife, you’re here.” Lexus was so happy to be able to see his wife. His eyes turned to slits and his smile widened even more and became more dazzling.
But the next moment, his field of vision was obstructed as a lump of mass darted toward him. He froze up.
