Chapter 89
Chapter 89.
Her eyes were very clear, without any impurities, like the water in the lake, so clean that people could not bear to hurt her. Lance's face was slightly stiff. He retracted his gaze from her and said, "Remember to close the door" Then he left.
When Scarlett saw him leave, she picked up her coffee and walked into the meeting room.
The bidding meeting had already begun. The lights in the meeting room were off, and only the big screen was lit.
This place was similar to a small studio. The back door would lead to the front, and they had to go through hundreds of steps
Now that the lights were turned off, it was dark inside, and it was impossible to see the road, so they could only gropealong. Scarlett held a cup of coffee in one hand and held the seat in the other, walking down slowly.
She had been the assistant of the president for so many years, so this small matter could still be handled.
She quickly brought the coffee to Dev's side.
She bent over and handed the coffee to him, reminding him in a low voice, "Mr. Gatsby, be careful of the heat."
Dev nodded and took the coffee she brought. He smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Scarlett shook her head. Just as she was about to sit down, Sebastian, who was sitting in front of her, suddenly looked up.
Her hand that was holding his seat accidentally touched that thick black hair.
She was shocked and quickly retracted her hand. The man turned back and glanced at her coldly.
Under the dim light, it was as if she was being stared at by a black eagle, which was extremely frightening.
She looked at Sebastian like this and said with some fear. "I, I'm sorry."
Sebastian did not say anything. He only gave her a cold look, then retracted his gaze and looked at the big screen.
Scarlett took a deep breath, and her delicate body fell onto the seat.
Her heart was still pounding when Dev suddenly said in her ear, "Scarlett, don't be afraid."
Scarlett widened her eyes and looked at Dev in disbelief. "What did you say?"
After Dey said this, he also felt that it was a bit inconceivable.
Just when he saw Scarlett being looked at by Sebastian, he was so scared that his whole body trembled, and he subconsciously said this sentence.
How could he inexplicably call out the word Scarlett? Also, why did he call her Scarlett?
Dev was shocked by his actions. After a long time, he pretended that nothing had happened and took a sip of coffee.
After drinking, he was a little surprised and asked Scarlett, "How do you know that I like this coffee!*
Scarlett was distracted by his words and replied lightly. 'I don't know. I picked it casually."
In fact, she knew that before the exam, he always liked to drink concentrated coffee to refresh himself. "Have you studied my taste? Dev looked at her thoughtfully.
"I haven't" Scarlett shook her head.
"Where is the milk powder?" Dey stretched out his hand to her.
Scarlett subconsciously took out a box of milk powder and handed it to him.
Dev looked at the milk powder in her hand and raised his eyebrows proudly.
"It seems that you know that I like to add some milk spirit"
Only then did Scarlett realize that he was testing her and immediately wanted to take back the milk spirit.
He grabbed her hand and said gently, "Miss Sales, I need your help."
He was holding a cup of coffee in his hand, unable to tear open the lid of the milk spirit. He could only use his eyes to signal Scarlett to help him add the milk powder. When Scarlett heard him call her Miss Sales again, she dispelled the doubts she had just had. Perhaps he had just said those words unintentionally.
However, the way he let her open the lid was somewhat like the former Liam, making her heart soften a little.
She took the box, tore open a thin layer of membrane on it, and poured the milk spirit into the coffee little by
Dev looked at Scarlett, who had her eyes lowered, and felt that looking at her under the dim yellow light had a different kind of beauty.
He couldn't help but be fascinated, and even his voice became softer. "Thank you."
Scarlett looked up at him. "Drink it quickly."
Sebastian, who was sitting in front, could not see the interaction between the two, but he could hear it clearly.
His pair of peach blossom eyes, which were as thin as fog, emitted a light that was sinister and cold, as cold as an ice cave.
