Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson)

Chapter 158

“I have been living here recently.”

“Do you have a house here?” I asked stupidly.

“Yes. I bought it three years ago. Do you want to go get a cup of coffee?”

“No thanks. I’m in a hurry.”

So Dylan didn’t force the issue. “Then let me send you back.”

Our question-and-answer conversation style was rather awkward. Looking back on our childhood, I

couldn’t help but feel a little sentimental. Who could have expected things between us to be so

miserable? If I hadn’t insisted on doing things my way and married Dylan according to my parents’

wishes, my life would have turned out differently. At the very least, Dylan would never have cheated on

me the way Carson did, nor would I have met Jolene, that brazen best friend turned lover. Still, in the

end, the dreams were just dreams. Besides, the past was already history. The only thing I could

understand was the present and the future.

He probably felt that the atmosphere had gotten weird, so he turned on some music. Then Madonna’s

song ‘Crazy For You’ started playing. It was a song that I loved very much. Back then, it was a song I

sang without fail every time I went to karaoke bars. When I heard the familiar melody, the emotions in

my heart started to stir again. I didn’t want Dylan to see the turbulent emotions I was experiencing, so I

grabbed my phone and tried to pull myself away from the music. As soon as I turned my phone on, I

saw a message from Eric: ‘Where are you?’

my

attention.

Wow, isn’t he shy about asking me where I am? When I left, he didn’t even ask if I needed a ride! I’m

sure he knew there were no taxis in the area. However, he was acting lovingly towards his lover and

didn’t care about his client. While he could acquire the company and become my boss in the future,

that wasn’t the case at the moment. At the moment, I was not his subordinate. Therefore, his attitude

towards me was exaggerating.

So, I decided to ignore it. Instead, I started playing Puzzle Bobble on my phone. After playing for a

while, I got another message from Eric: “There are no taxis in the area. Go back and I will send

someone to send you back.”

I continued to ignore his message and he called me a short time later. In response, I rudely hung up my

phone. Dylan sent me back to the company. Upon returning to the company, I went to President

Smith’s office to report the work.

President Smith was quite surprised to see me. “Lilian, how did you get back here?”

“A friend brought me back,” I replied.

“No wonder, Mr. Walker called looking for him, saying his phone was off.”

“My phone ran out of battery.” After saying this, I began to report to him about my meeting: “President Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Smith, I have given the documents to Mr. Walker, but he didn’t say anything about it after examining

them. Also, he discussed some design matters with me. Afterwards, something happened on his side,

so I came back first.”

“I understood. Good job out there!” He smiled widely.

“If there is nothing else, I will go back to my work.”

“All good.” As I turned to leave, President Smith called me back. “Don’t forget to call Mr. Walker.”

“Clear!” After that I went back to the office. However, I wasn’t in a hurry to call Eric, so I went and made

myself a cup of coffee. Bringing coffee with me back to my office, I found Jessica sitting in my

seat. “When did you arrive?”

“Right now. Did you meet Eric today?”
