No One But You

I stood at the door for a moment after I walked out of Calvin's office.

In a trance, a face suddenly appeared in front of me.

She recognized me. "Director Wood? Why haven't you been to work for days?"

It was Alice Newman in the secretary's office. She had a good memory and still remembers me.

"Had a fender bender. I just came to report to Mr. Knight?" I pointed to the door, "Shouldn't I have gone in there?"

"It doesn't matter. Miss Dixon is quite easygoing and never loses her temper. She has a good character. If she becomes a madame, we will be lucky."

I caught the key word, madame.

Thinking that I looked stunned, Alice explained to me carefully, "You are new here and you don't know her. Miss Dixon is the real girlfriend of our big boss. No matter how our bid boss behaved, Miss Dixon never gets angry. She is gentle all the time. Being a madame should have such a character, don't you think so?"

I didn't know what to say, so I kept silent.

I wondered if all the people surname Dixon in the world had come around me.

Calvin's real girlfriend unexpectedly also surname Dixon?

I wondered if she was arranged for him by the family Calvin told me that night, but he didn't like her?

As I stood still, Alice enthusiastically pulled me into their secretary's office, intending to give me a long speech.

"Shall we go out for hot pot? It is in the street corner, there is a new Chaoshan hot pot, which was so delicious."

I was hungry, but when I saw his real girlfriend, my stomach seemed to fill up with some kind of gas.

I became not hungry at all.

When I was about to refuse, the door was open, Calvin came out with Miss Dixon.

Miss Dixon's hand was in the arms of Calvin, smiling as if the whole world was in her hands.

She had a strange aura, somber and powerful, indomitable and refined.

I was a journalist and have quite a good writing style, but after seeing this Miss Dixon, I was incoherent in my mind.

She was beautiful, but she was more than beautiful.

I noticed Calvin's expression, but I caught nothing useful.

When he tried to hide his inner thoughts, he made me blind.

I turned around and piled up a fish-like smiling face and said to Alice, "Ok, let's eat Chaoshan hotpot."

Alice bowed deeply to Calvin, as if saying goodbye to the body.

When they finished saying goodbye, I turned with them and headed for the elevator.

Behind me came the voice of Calvin, "Josephine."

He called to me, I stopped, turned around opportunely, smile at him, "Yes, boss?"

"I dine with Miss Dixon at noon, join us."

I looked at him, still smiling brightly.

I didn't want to eat with them. What were the three of us sitting together? Who was whose third wheel?

"I just had an appointment with Alice, we will have Chaoshan hotpot."

Calvin looked at me, "Good, let's have Chaoshan hot pot."

Alice and her colleagues were confused. When they walked into the elevator together, they asked me in a low voice, "Is big Boss going to have hot pot with us?" "Your big boss is also a human. He needs to have dinner and rice. Is it strange that he will have a hot pot?"

"We've never had dinner at the same table with big boss. I mean, we don't have the honor of sharing the table with big boss, except for the company party." What would be the honor of sharing a table with him? I was sick of sharing the same bed with him every night these days.

Chaoshan hotpot was not far which was just located in the crossing. No need to drive, no need to take a taxi.

It was late autumn, but the sun was raging today.

Miss Dixon held a huge sunshade under which she stood tall and graceful. She beckoned to me, "Miss Josephine, come and stand with me."

She wore a skirt with ivory flounced shirt and a coat of the same color, which made her look like a lily with attractive fragrance.

Alice and I were standing together. There were four secretaries, but she only spoke to me.

She was anything but as simple as her tender appearance. Her eyes were so fierce that she could tell at a glance the difference between me and the other secretaries.

I smiled and answered slowly, "No need, I never use an umbrella, and I never get tanned."

I was not lying about that. I wasn't very good at sunscreen. It was almost 40 degrees in the summer, and I just threw on a layer of sunscreen and followed the male reporters at our magazine around in the sun. They all looked like ghosts, but I didn't get a tan.

God gave me a good skin, but I used to seduce other's boyfriend.

Calvin looked at me, "Don't use it since you don't want to. Follow closely. You never look at the traffic lights when you walk."

There was a hint of intimacy in his voice. Even Alice and the others felt a little wrong. They wanted to see Calvin, but dared not.

Only that Miss Dixon seemed not to hear that, holding the umbrella with one hand, and other clutching Calvin's sleeve. She turned back to me with a smile, "Follow us across the road."

Was it possible that I looked like a fool today with my clothes messy and my mouth watering?

If I couldn't get across the road under the traffic lights, I wouldn't be alive today.

Looking at Miss Dixon's graceful figure, I reminded one name, though I did not know her full name.

Fairy Dixon.

I thought the name Fairy Dixon must suit her better than her original name.

I was absent-minded and found that we have arrived at the Chaoshan hotpot restaurant after a while. As soon as we arrived at the door, the mellow beef aroma blew on my face.

I got hungry when I smelled the fragrance.

We were sitting at the same big table, and Alice and others were probably a little nervous about having hot pot with Calvin for the first time.

I don't care. I took the menu and ordered.

I only ordered meat and picked the most expensive ones.

Then I gave menu to Alice, "Order what you like, big boss will pay the bill."

"You've almost ordered everything. What else should we order?" Alice whispered to me.

It would be enough even if they did not order. It was magnificent wait until the waiter served the dishes. I ordered seafood and top beef.

Chaoshan hot pot was for several people to eat in a large pot. I ordered two favors of soup, and put the spicy side to me. I ordered the spiciest one. When the red soup spoiling, I sneezed smelling it.

As soon as the soup spoiled, I couldn't wait to heat the beef, and then put it in my mouth.

A pair of chopsticks caught my chopsticks and I looked up at the man who challenged me. "If Mr. Knight wants to eat, heat it by yourself."
