Chapter 9 Observe Carefully
After saying goodbye to Samuel, Shirley went back to her room to sleep, although she didn't have much time to sleep. But she had to sleep. On the one hand, she had to calm down the emotion that she shouldn't have just now. On the other hand, she had to raise her spirit so that she could face more challenges. She knew that upgrading was a long way to go.
However, in the dead of night, Shirley, who was lying on the bed alone, missed home again. She could be loved by her parents at home, and maybe she could find a job now. She didn't expect to be taken here just because she had read a romantic novel.
She missed her parents and friends so much. She wanted to return to the real world!
Thinking of this, Shirley's eyelids became heavy and she slowly fell asleep. Just when Shirley was asleep, she had a dream. She dreamed that she had come back home. When she opened the door, her parents had prepared her favorite dishes, waiting for her, as usual. She dreamed that she went shopping with her friends and went to the amusement park together. Shirley smiled happily.
But the man in the other room couldn't fall asleep. Shirley's smile kept flashing through Samuel's mind.
He forced himself to fall asleep, but the figure of that woman had always occupied his mind. It must be because they had lived together these days, so he always thought of her. Samuel comforted himself like this.
Shirley had a good dream all night, while Samuel had a sleepless night.
The second morning, when Shirley woke up, she found that she was still in this damned world. Everything had not changed. It was just a dream and she felt so lonely.
However, even so, she had to work alone to change the fate of the supporting actress!
On the table, although Shirley had only slept for a few hours, she was in a good condition. But Samuel was eating with obvious dark circles under his eyes.
Samuel didn't want to be seen by Shirley, but when they had breakfast together in the morning, and the dark circles under his eyes were very obvious, so they were still found by Shirley.
Looking at the dark circles under Samuel's eyes, Shirley felt very guilty. She thought she must have disturbed his sleep last night. Although the two of them didn't have any feelings for each other, she should thank him. Shirley thought.
"Well... I'm sorry to bother you last night. But thank you very much for helping me find out the problem of the contract. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable. In order to thank you, I have decided that you can ask me to do one thing now!" Shirley gritted her teeth and decided that no matter what request Samuel put forward, she would try her best to do it.
Hearing how Shirley thanked him, Samuel said helplessly, "I only have one request. Can you be smarter and use your brain when you do things. Don't forget that we two are in the same boat now. If I didn't find anything wrong this time, I would also be implicated in your accident in the future. How can you defeat Damon and achieve our goal in such a desperate situation?"
"Oh, I see. I know I let you down this time. I won't do that again. "Samuel was surprised that Shirley agreed obediently. If it were in the past, Shirley would not listen to him. She would have her own opinions and think that Samuel was verbose.
But he would never know that Shirley had changed. Although her appearance was the same, the soul living in it had completely changed.
In fact, Shirley was not stupid. She could understand what Samuel meant. But she complained in her heart, 'he means I'm stupid. But I don't have a double bachelor's degree. Of course I don't understand the contract.' She even beat around the bush to curse her. Didn't he dislike her for dragging him down? However, she had to be humble when she was trapped in an inferior situation. She had no choice but to agree obediently. Moreover, what he said was not wrong at all. After complaining, Shirley felt much more comfortable.
After saying that, the two of them looked at each other speechlessly and lowered their heads to eat breakfast silently.
In the past, Samuel had never looked at Shirley in the eye. He just had thought that she married him because she saw Karla have taken Damon away and she just wanted to revenge on Damon and Karla. He had thought that she was a vicious woman and would do anything to take revenge. Before she married him, Samuel thought so. But after the two got married, Shirley found that Shirley seemed to have changed into another person. She used to be domineering, wily and capable, as if there was only darkness in her heart. But after this period of life, he felt that his understanding of Shirley seemed too one- sided. These days, Samuel seemed to have known Shirley again.
He found that sometimes Shirley was just like a fresh graduate university student who was confused. Taking the contract for instance, as a person who had double degree in financial and management, how could she not notice the problem? Sometimes, she was as childish and funny as a child, and often talked to herself, totally different for the past Shirley.
Samuel looked at the woman who was having dinner with his research eyes. Wasn't she the same person as before? It was impossible. She looked exactly the same as before. He had never paid attention to Shirley before. Now he saw her beautiful long hair cascading down to her waist, and her wavy hair at the end of her hair made her look mature and sexy. Different from Karla, who was obedient and innocent, Shirley's appearance was stunning and easy to remember. With smooth and clean forehead and heroic eyebrows, a bit of toughness of a man was added. She had a pair of beautiful eyes like gems, long eyelashes, upturned nose, red lips and white teeth. She was very beautiful without makeup. At this moment, Shirley had put on a light make-up, which made her more attractive. If Karla was a light ink painting, then Shirley was a painting with heavy colors, each with its own merits.
In the past, he only thought that Karla was the most perfect girl in the world. But today, after observing Shirley carefully, he found that she had a face that was not inferior to Karla's at all. Moreover, compared with Karla's usual soft, pitiful and lovely style, Shirley seemed to be livelier and her style was more varied.
At this time, an unknown strange feeling was slowly growing in Samuel's heart, and he didn't even notice it himself.
Shirley focused on eating and felt a pair of fiery eyes staring at her. She looked up and saw Samuel staring at her as if he was going to eat her. She thought guiltily, 'why does he look a little angry? Did he hear what I said in my heart just now? Could he read people's mind? It was impossible! It was impossible.' But Shirley was still nervous by his stare.
After breakfast, Samuel proposed to send her to the company in case she would cause any trouble. Although Shirley was flattered, she refused him. She knew that after the contract incident last night, Samuel would definitely think that he would give up the plan of finding a new actress and would ask for Karla's forgiveness to let her act in the TV play. However, it was impossible, because there were no "give up" in Shirley's world. Besides, he didn't know the truth. So now she was not going to the company, but to meet the agent of the new actress. Shirley would definitely not let Samuel send her, or the lie would be exposed.
Shirley, who took a taxi, came to the actress's agency early to talk about the contract, but the reporters arrived earlier than her.
On the way to work, Shirley's assistant called her and told her not to go through the front door. Therefore, in order to avoid the reporters' siege, Shirley obediently entered the company through the back door, but she still did not avoid the reporters.
The moment she got out of the car, she was blocked by a group of reporters, and countless microphones reached out to her.
"Miss Shirley, Karla had already agreed to act in the TV drama. Why are you here to meet the new actress?"
"Shirley, why did you terminate your contract with Karla? Why did you give up Karla? Have there been a conflict between you two for a long time?"
"Miss Shirley, what do you want to say about Karla's video?"
"Miss Shirley, what do you want to explain about the matter that you changed the actress without informing Karla?"
"Shirley, as far as we know, the investor asks Karla to be the heroine. Why don't you give an explanation to the investor now?"
Hearing these questions, Shirley was almost pissed off. 'Give up her? It was she who said she wanted to terminate the contract and refused to act in this TV drama! Is there any contradiction between them? It's a big problem. Either she dies or I live. Do you think if it's a big problem or not?' She thought angrily!! 'What do I want to say about the video? I want to say dirty words! Why don't I explain it to the investor? I also wanted to give an explanation to the investor, but the investor didn't accept my method. What can I do?'
However, Shirley could only say these words in her heart. She couldn't say these words in front of the media now. After saying these, she would only attract more curses. Therefore, she had no choice but to endure the angry the keep these words in her heart.
She had to force a smile and said to the reporters, "Dear media friends, I know you are very curious about what happened recently. I sincerely apologize to you. It's all my fault. I will personally find Miss Karla to thank her for her generosity and tolerance, and I will give the investor a satisfactory reply as soon as possible. Please wait patiently."
After saying that, Shirley squeezed a way for herself with her body and walked quickly into the company. The reporters wanted to ask a few more questions, but they were stopped by the security.
The angry Shirley swore in her heart as she walked, 'Karla, you made a fool of me today and made me speechless. When I have enough experience point, when I slowly upgrade, I will certainly abuse you!'☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
