Chapter 76
The office was in a mess and I was not in the mood to stay there any longer.
I cast a cold glance at the group of people and walked out of the office. Hendrix caught my wrist from the side and yanked me forcefully. I glared at him and said, "Mr. Roberts, you'd better go and console your sweetheart."
After leaving the office, I went straight to Bronzy Condo. Monique was probably still resting, so I took a detour and went to the supermarket.
I hadn't been home recently, I reckoned the groceries I bought last time had expired. I had nothing to do anyway, so I decided to wander around to pass the time.
Unexpectedly, I ran into Sawyer. Seeing that he was pestered by a young beauty, it seemed that he must have provoked her.
I was already in a bad mood, so I went to watch the drama with my arms crossed.
To my surprise, Sawyer noticed me. He ran over to me and tugged my arm with a helpless look on his face, "Help me, it's an emergency!"
Without waiting for me to react, he said to the young lady, "Stella, this is the girl I've been telling you about. I like her very, very much. I've liked her for almost ten years now. I really don't feel anything for you. Stop pestering me, okay?"
Stella was rejected. Her eyes were red and she looked very pitiful. "You like her, but she may not like you. Sawyer, she looks old, I'm sure she's married. What about her is there to like?"
Me?
I looked old?
I didn't want to get involved in a children's quarrel, but my hand was clutched by Sawyer. He answered with a serious look, "Stella, do you remember when we were freshmen in university, you asked me who was the girl in the photo I kept in my wallet? Look carefully, it's her. I swear I liked her for ten years."
Stella was being tricked by him. She stared at me with her large and dark eyes. Then, tears rolled down her face. She seemed so sad.
"What are you doing, Sawyer?" I asked. I was getting a headache. Why was this kid making his relationship so complicated?
Sawyer was also helpless, he looked at me and replied, "I can't do anything about it. She has been pestering me for so many years, I'm sick of it. Besides, I just want her to give up on me." To give up on him? Who was he kidding?
I rolled my eyes at him and walked away. The sound of Stella sobbing could be heard from behind me. Sawyer followed me and said, "Arianna, I really do like you. Hendrix has no feelings for you, so why don't you leave him? I'm rich and powerful, just think about it!"
I wasn't in a good mood and didn't want to listen to his nonsense. I stopped abruptly and turned to look at him solemnly.
He was stunned for a moment and stopped following me. He gazed at me and said with a smile, "Why don't you think about it?"
"Sawyer, I'm now officially warning you to stay away from me. I'm not interested in a little kid who still hasn't matured, okay?"
I was still mad about the incident at the company, and Sawyer was really unlucky on this day to encounter me.
I suppressed my anger and promptly entered the Bronzy Condo.
However, I didn't expect Sawyer to catch up with me and grab me. He looked at me indignantly and said, "So, I'm just a little kid who still hasn't matured to you?"
Sh*t, I couldn't get rid of him!
"Yes, Sawyer. Don't you think you're annoying? I... Ah!" He straight up swiped me off my feet and carried me on his shoulder.
"You think I still haven't matured? Let me show just how grown up I am." The tone of his voice was fierce and harsh. The more he spoke, the angrier he became. He raised his hand and smacked my butt twice,
What the hell...
