Cormac pulled the chair away and stood up. He bent over and lifted her, “You are a fox.”
Loredana shook her legs, leisurely enjoying her husband’s intimacy and care. With a gentle smile, she said, “Then, are you fond of a fox like me?”
“I’ve been seduced by the enchanting fox, so now I want to be with the enchanting fox now.” Cormac put her on the sofa, “Let’s go to the company canteen for lunch.”
Loredana nodded and said obediently, “All up to you.”
Smiling, Cormac poked her nose.
At then past eleven, all the employees were knocked off. Cormac and Loredana went downstairs ten minutes later. When they arrived, almost all the employees of the company had been in the canteen. Abbott came for lunch later than others. With a tray in his hands, he saw them come in, greeting them with a smile, “Good day, Mr. and Mrs. Mendelsohn.”
He was surprised to see Cormac have lunch with Loredana in the canteen. He asked, “Are you here for lunch?”
Loredana smiled and asked, “Or what?”
Abbott smiled, too. Although the food in the canteen was delicious, it couldn’t compare to the food from a restaurant.
Right then, someone stood up and said, “Congratulations, Mr. Mendelsohn.”
On his wedding day, Cormac gave each employee of WY Group two thousand as the lucky money.
Now, they were quite enthusiastic when seeing the couple. They called Loredana Mrs. Mendelsohn respectfully.
Earlier when Cormac hadn’t held the wedding, the employees knew their relationship. However, they didn’t dare to change her title.
Now, all people in this country knew that they were married.
“Please come to sit here. There are empty seats,” said the secretary of Cormac’s office. She was sitting alone at a table with several empty seats.
When Cormac was busy, he used to come here for meals often. The employees had been used to it. However, this was the first time that their CEO’s wife came here.
Someone also showed the empty seat at his table, “We also have empty seats here.”
“Thank you all. We can sit here.” Loredana smiled and sat down with Cormac at the secretary’s table.
The secretary mentioned it first, and it was quite suitable to sit with her.
All employees liked Loredana very much. She was easy-going and never put on airs. Right now, she came in with Cormac to have lunch in the canteen, so the employees were quite enthusiastic about her and they respected her a lot.
Loredana didn’t eat in silence. All the employees came over to greet her after lunch.
“Please endure it, Mrs. Mendelsohn. Finally, our CEO has a wife. We all are happy for him.” Abbott also came over after lunch. Two employees had just come over to greet Loredana, so he teased her.
He thought to himself, ‘I looked down upon Loredana the most in the past, but now so many employees liked her. Sure enough, I’m not good at knowing others.’
That was why he could only work for others instead of being a boss himself.
Cormac looked up at him, “Aren’t you busy?”
Abbott let out an awkward laugh, “I just came here to say bye.”
When he left, he said to Loredana, “Look. That’s how he suppresses me.”
Loredana laughed. After Abbott was gone, she poked Cormac, “You’d better treat your subordinates better in the future.”
“Don’t listen to his nonsense.” Cormac sneered.
Loredana had been in the company for a whole day. In the evening, Amanda called, saying that she wanted to have dinner with them together. Hence, they went to pick her up before heading to the restaurant. When they arrived there, Armand was already waiting in the box.
Cormac pulled the chair out for Loredana. After she sat down, he pulled out another one and sat down with Amanda in his arms.
Armand checked the time and said, “Boyce is putting on the air, isn’t he? It’s his treat, but he’s late.”
“Probably he’s delayed by something,” said Loredana. As far as she knew Boyce, he was always a punctual man.
“His girlfriend? Who is it? Hasn’t Jasmine Burke left City B already? Loredana, do you know who his girlfriend is?” Armand recalled that once Boyce had got into a woman’s car. He wondered if that woman was Boyce’s girlfriend.
“Isn’t she Jasmine Burke?” asked Loredana.
Armand shook his head, “That girl has left town…”
“I know who she is. I met her,” Amanda interrupted Armand and said complacently. She was quite proud that she was the first one among them all to meet Boyce’s girlfriend, although she didn’t like that woman at all.
“Really?” Armand asked with a smile, “Is she good-looking?”
Amanda thought for a moment, “Just so-so.”
No matter how good-looking she was, her first impression wasn’t good. It was nothing.
Amanda didn’t care about Wendy’s appearance at all. She only remembered that Wendy wasn’t good.
She couldn’t tell exactly why Wendy was good, but simply she disliked that woman.
Right then, two persons entered the restaurant.
“It’s really inappropriate for us to be late. It’s our treat.” Boyce looked a bit annoyed. He thought that Wendy was quite willful indeed. It was almost time, but she insisted on going home and changing her clothes. Hence, they were late.
“You’re introducing me to your friends today. If I was indecent, I would embarrass you, wouldn’t I?” Wendy knew it was bad to be late, but she would meet Boyce’s friends, so she wanted to show them her best side.
“If I was dirty and ugly, don’t you feel disgraced if you introduce me to your friends?”
Boyce couldn’t win against her verbally. He said indifferently, “I only treasure the character, not the hypocritical appearance. You are who you are. You don’t need to care about others’ criticism.” Wendy pressed her lips, “Are you angry?”
“No. All right. Here we are.” Boyce meant to stop arguing. He pushed the door of the box open and said with a smile, “I’m sorry. We’re late.”
Wendy was indeed good-looking. She dressed up gracefully. Holding Boyce’s arm, she echoed with a smile, “I’m sorry. There was traffic on the way. We’re late.”
Boyce frowned. Obviously, he didn’t expect that she would lie.
They were late because she insisted on changing her clothes. How could she lie about the traffic?
“It’s alright. Nothing.” Armand smiled, looking at her up and down, He slightly raised his eyebrows. Sure enough, it was truly that woman he had seen once. Boyce introduced his friends to Wendy, “This is Armand Bernie, a friend of mine.”
Wendy smiled at Armand politely, “Nice to meet you.”
Armand nodded.
Amanda lay prone on Cormac’s shoulder and whispered in his ear, “Daddy, I don’t like this woman. She’s so disgusting.”
Cormac patted her gently and whispered, “Be polite.”
