Wedding Agreement With CEO - Chapter 182

“I-I … I went—”

“With Rully? Employee in this office, huh?” concluded Richard who suddenly made Ellena rounded.

Ellena immediately thought that Richard knew about it from her mother and Richard seemed to believe it, but she just replied casually to her mother. Even the figure Rully mentioned, she didn’t know her at all. However, Richard’s question seemed to suggest that there really was an employee named Rully in the office.

Ellena swiftly nodded enthusiastically, confirming Ellena’s words.

“There’s not even an employee named Rully here, Patricia!” Richard snapped, pressing his hands on the table.

It suddenly made Ellena jump even more. Her eyes were perfect. Didn’t think it turned out to be wrong. Oh shit. It turned out that Richard’s question was only to set her up.

“I’ve asked the whole division and no one has mentioned that name!” Richard insisted again feeling sure that no one would dare lie to him regarding the identity of any employee.

Ellena was successfully made to die of lice. She really couldn’t say anything to Richard. What else could she say, when she had already been caught lying.

‘Ah, why did you have to say that to Mr Richard. What should I do now?’ Ellena muttered to herself.

“Answer me, Patricia. Don’t be silent!” asked Richard emphatically.

“S-Sir—”

“Don’t call me that again!” Richard’s sarcasm managed to make Ellena convulse in seconds.

“B-but—”

“You know what? I panicked, Patricia!”

Again Richard did not give Ellena a chance to speak. Instantly he threw his back against the back of the chair in one thrust. Weak.

Ellena didn’t know how Richard had panicked so much because of her. Especially when Livia told him that she suddenly wasn’t in the toilet yesterday.

Richard was really frustrated by that. Not to mention the meeting with Adley, which should have gone smoothly, ended up falling apart because of Ellena’s disappearance.

Indeed, the meeting could still go on, because as soon as Richard found out that Ellena had disappeared, he immediately mobilized several of his confidants to look for Ellena’s whereabouts at that time. However, nothing. In fact, even his confidants couldn’t find Ellena at all.

In the end, the meeting could only last about half an hour. Given that Adley had come a long way to meet him, Richard couldn’t possibly cancel the meeting and reschedule.

Despite Adley’s repeated requests for the meeting to be adjourned, Richard persisted. However, he still had to be responsible for his secretarial actions, so that he himself ran the meeting with Adley and Livia.

However, after the meeting ended, Richard immediately contacted the CCTV camera supervisor. However, unfortunately there was no sign of Ellena leaving the restaurant. The CCTV supervisor immediately suspected that Ellena had come out the back door. However, unfortunately again there are no hidden cameras, making it difficult for Richard to track Ellena’s departure.

Without thinking, Richard immediately decided to find Ellena himself. He went around town. In fact, he visited almost every place tirelessly, because he was so worried about his beloved secretary.

Not to mention his trusted people who are still under remote surveillance. In fact Richard contacted them almost every minute, not wanting to miss a second on the latest information about Ellena. However, the result is still the same. The woman he was looking for had still not been found.

Luckily he already knew the address of Ellena’s house and decided to go there. However, he was unlucky again, because it turned out that Ellena had not come home. In fact he almost went crazy imagining what had happened to Ellena. Only negative thoughts filled his head. Especially when contacting Ellena there was no answer.

He’d been awake most of the night thinking about Ellena. Even more so when the man found out that there was no Rully in his company. Who exactly did Elena go with?

Yes, as soon as he got information from Briana that Ellena went with a figure named Rully, an employee at her company, as soon as possible she immediately contacted several people who worked at her company to inquire about the figure of Rully. Eventually, he finds out that Ellena is trying to lie to his mother. That’s what was on his mind, once he found out about Rully who didn’t really exist.

Richard’s breath was ragged. The pair of eagle retinas instantly aimed sharply at Ellena. Waiting for an answer and explanation that if possible can reduce the fear and curiosity that had not left his mind since yesterday.

“Richard, I-I’m sorry for worrying you.” Ellena whispered, shaking slightly.

How come? When Richard looked as if he was preying on her, she was even more unable to move. She was wrong, but it really wasn’t what she wanted. Whatever she did, was just compulsion, lying to her mother, lying to Richard as well.

If there was another option, maybe Ellena would have taken that path. However, the only option is to lie, in order to hide what happened yesterday. There was no way she could tell Richard all that.

“I didn’t mean it like that, but there was something important I had to do yesterday.” Ellena explained, trying to suppress Richard’s emotions.

“What important need that you did not have time to reply to messages and receive calls from me?” Richard asked, looking at Ellena curiously.

“You think the meeting with Mr. Adley is not important?” Richard attacked without giving Ellena a chance to breathe a sigh of relief.

“I know it’s very important to you.” Ellena replied weakly.

“For our company, Patricia, not for me!” said Richard.

“Yes, I mean for our company,” replied Ellena, lowering her head. It seemed Richard was really furious. This was the first time she had seen the man in front of her be that angry.

“You know what? What did I do yesterday, Patricia?” Richard asked again, as if he wanted Ellena to know about his worries yesterday.

“You must have been looking for me,” replied Ellena, still looking down.

“Not only me, but also Mr. Adley and Miss Livia whom we should have welcomed, but it turned out to be quite the opposite. They were troubled because of you! Did you think that far, huh?” Richard sarcastically still wasn’t satisfied with voicing his annoyance.

“I’m sorry. I’m ready to accept your punishment, as long as you don’t fire me from this job.” Ellena whispered, which suddenly made Richard look away instantly.

“That’s not what I wanted, Patricia.” Richard’s voice weakened, as soon as he saw the sad look on Ellena’s face.

“Then what should I do?” Ellena asked looking up again and ventured to look at Richard.

“I don’t know what made you do that, Patricia, but I’m definitely disappointed. I’m so disappointed in you!” said Richard forced to admit his disappointment in front of Ellena.

Yes of course. How could Richard look normal, after seeing Ellena, the person he trusted actually seemed to be playing with him.

“I know you must be very disappointed. I’m sorry.” Ellena hissed with tears in her eyes from feeling too guilty for Richard. Yes, she completely forgave Richard’s anger this time because it was her fault.

“Okay, looks like it’s useless for me to be here, if only to hear the word ‘Sorry’ from you!” Richard snapped as he rose from his seat, standing in the same place that made Ellena slightly look up at him.

“Wait!”

Just as Richard’s legs were about to swing, Ellena suddenly caught him.

“Can we have a good talk about this?” asked Ellena trying to persuade Richard.

“Say what you want to talk about?” Richard replied still flat.

“Sit down,” said Ellena in a very soft tone. She really didn’t want any misunderstanding between herself and hier boss.

Who would have thought, it turned out that Ellena’s words this time were able to melt Richard’s heart, which had peaked.

Richard seemed to have thrown her body back on Ellena’s work chair. However, her gaze still remained the same. It seemed she still couldn’t suppress her emotions completely.

Ellena took a deep breath as she caught a glare fixed on her, before finally saying. “I’m facing a big problem, but I can’t tell you about it right now.”

That statement managed to make Richard drop an eyebrow, as if surprised.

‘Then why is she holding me back from going, when she doesn’t want to tell me about her predicament? What a waste of time!” Richard screamed in his heart.

“Yesterday I was ready to meet you and Mr. Adley, but suddenly the person I was in trouble with showed up at the restaurant and took me out of there.” Ellena explained, trying to get the outline of the problem.

Richard rounded. There was pity in her heart. “What do you mean? Does that mean you were kidnapped?”

“I can’t tell you everything, but I promise, one day I will tell you,” Ellena explained, which suddenly made Richard get back up and immediately left the place.

However, Richard’s steps suddenly stopped just as he crossed Ellena.

“You want punishment from me, don’t you?” Richard asked dryly.

“Yes … if you want to punish me, I will gladly accept it as long as I can atone for all my mistakes,” answered Ellena.

“Be my Love.”
