He stood up and spoke in a solemn tone, "Saoirse, since you are now an employee of the Perry Group, you must abide by the company's regulations and use a formal address while talking to me." Saoirse blinked her beautiful eyes and asked, "Is there really a need to act like strangers?" "It's not acting like strangers, it's just complying with the company's regulations." After a moment of silence, she laughed it off and said, "Okay, Mr. Perry." She shrugged and said, "It does feel foreign to address you in such a formal manner." "It'll be fine once you get used to it. You can get back to your work now." "Don't you wantto give you a massage?" Saoirse suggested in a soft tone.
"Saoirse, you're currently at work." "What about after work then?" Matthew pursed his lips. "Saoirse, my wife will not be happy with this." Saoirse's expression shifted slightly. "William, I'm also your wife." "Saoirse, I agreed to keep you company for half a year. You know why I did so. If I can keep my promise, I hope you will do the same." Saoirse looked at Matthew with her blue eyes and said, "Fine then, William." "Don't call'William'." "Mr. Perry." Saoirse stood there gracefully. "Then I better get going. You can continue with your work, just callif you need coffee or something. After all, I am your assistant and it is my job to look after you." Selina tagged along with Yesseca and Lothar when they left the hospital and headed hin the afternoon.
Yesseca and Lothar lived in one of the units of an old and run down apartment.
The house was very small, spanning a mere 60 square meters.
Selina raised her eyebrows. "How can you live in such a small place? I'll find you a bigger house." Lothar immediately rejected the offer, "It's fine, this place is big enough to live in." Yesseca also said, "Miss Whitlock, you've helped us too much. We can't trouble you anymore." Selina insisted, "This place is too small. Besides, it's not a big deal for me." Buying them a bigger house was just a trivial matter to Selina.
Lothar pulled Selina aside and whispered, "Selina, I'm a man. You're already helping so much, and now you want to find a bigger house for us? Strangers might think that you're my sugar mommy." Selina was speechless.
She glared at Lothar. "Why would I need a sugar baby when I have such beautiful features?" "You've got a point." Lothar said, "So don't bring up this topic again, Selina." Selina agreed and held back on the desire to help them.
It was true that Lothar was a man. He carried himself with pride, just as a man should. If he accepted too much help from someone else, it might hurt his dignity.
She smiled and said, "Cto think about it, small houses are more cozy anyway." Search the FindNøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

Selina looked at Yesseca as her heart skipped a beat.
In theory, Yesseca should be depressed considering the fact that she had often fallen ill and been confined to a hospital bed. However, she always had a smile on her face, which was really surprising. She really admired Yesseca's optimism.
"Selina, why don't you stay for dinner tonight. I'll show you what I'm capable of. My culinary skills are very good," Lothar spoke up.
He had been waiting for a while to treat Selina to a meal.
However, he knew that he wasn't financially capable of inviting Selina to any luxurious restaurant. If he cooked, at least it would show his sincerity.
He didn't have tto cook by himself in the hospital, so when he returned home, he naturally had to cook a meal for Selina as a token of appreciation.
"Okay," Selina accepted his offer. "I've never tasted your cooking before." "Then I'll go buy svegetables. Both of you can just stay here and wait." Lothar left with the widest grin on his face.
"Miss Whitlock, cover here." Yesseca suddenly took Selina's hand and walked to the door.
She took out a piece of paper double the size of an A4 paper, with four large words written clearly on it. "Warm and cozy home." She stuck the paper to the door carefully.
"Miss Whitlock, do you think it looks good? I've been thinking about it for a long time." Yesseca's eyes were filled with happiness. "This is my brother's and my little hThis is our little happy home." Selina nodded her head. "It looks amazing." Lothar chwith groceries later that night.
Yesseca gave Lothar a hand with the bags.
Selina had wanted to help out too, but Lothar refused to let her. He said that Selina was their quest for the night and should just enjoy the meal.
Selina was left with no choice but to wait in the living room.
While the living room was small and the furniture worn out, it was just as Yesseca's paper stated. The house was filled with warmth. Especially when she heard Yesseca's and Lothar's joyful laughter, Selina's heart felt warm and sweet.
Wasn't life just so beautiful? Suddenly, her cellphone rang.
Selina looked and saw that it was Matthew calling.
"Where are you? I'll pick you up," said Matthew over the phone.
"How did you know that I am outside and not at home?" Matthew's tone softened. "I guessed." "You really knowwell." "So where are you? I'll pick you up." "I'm at Lothar's house," Selina added, "with his younger sister too. They invitedto dinner, would you like to join?" "Wouldn't that be too sudden?" "No, of course not. We're all friends. I'll send you the address and you can find your way here." "Okay." Matthew agreed.
After hanging up, Selina told Lothar that Matthew would join them for dinner later.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLothar began feeling nervous.
"Will-will our small house be too
shabby? Will he mind?" He felt that the condition of his house was not good enough for the noble-looking Matthew to be there. "No." Selina smiled and assured him. "Although he is rich, he's not snobby like rich people are." Lothar asked again, "So you've finally reconciled with him?" She nodded. "Yes, we're good now."
Lothar smiled, hiding a tinge of bitterness behind his smile. "That's good then Selina. Since you've both E made up, I hope you can get along." "Thank you, I'm sure we will."
"Since he will be joining, I'll need to cook a bigger portion." bothar raised his voice "Yesseca, please helpcut more chilli." "Okay!" Yesseca swiftly replied in a clear voice.
Selina returned to the living room to wait. Suddenly, the corner of her lips curled up.
The realization dawned on her that this was really a cozy little house full of positive energy.
About half an hour later, Matthew arrived.
Rather than sticking out like a sore thumb, his grandeur brought life to the worn out little room.
Lothar greeted Matthew awkwardly.
He recalled the twhen Selina and Matthew had had a conflict. He had even almost antagonized Matthew. Matthew was completely unaffected by Lothar's awkwardness. He shook Lothar's hand firmly and said, "It's been a while." His generosity made Lothar feel a little embarrassed.
Since Matthew had not held a grudge, there was no reason for him to hold one either.
