With great excitement and detail, Stephan railed against Eli by mentioning her series of mistakes. It seemed that Yorris's patience was on hiatus, so he didn't want to hear any further explanation other than the answer to his question.
"I need answers."
"He startled me and I paid him back for how he's treated me so far."
"She was mostly wrong, Mr. Yorris, she was violent to me."
Eli certainly didn't accept it, Stephan's attitude was unprofessional. Luckily Eli had the last ace against her.
"He's probably working with Miss Cindy. Ask him more, if I ask him he won't answer honestly."
"You..."
"Cindy? Stephan meet me in my room now."
Yorris came out which was immediately followed by Stephan. Before leaving Stephan still took the time to stare at Eli full of hate who returned with an awkward smile.
"Gosh, he hates Cindy so much."
Don't know what happened in the past between the two that Yorris so that hated Cindy to the bone.

"Sorry Loun, do you still have something to say about the meeting?"
Loun chuckled, he had often been asked that question but if the question came from Eli it felt strange. Most likely Eli avoided Loun and wanted to stay away from him.
"I don't know what possessed Yorris to make him want to find direct materials. That task is not his obligation."
"He doesn't have time for holidays, maybe he considers this a bit of a vacation. Going to the woods looking for wild ornamental wood and wild plants is my specialty, he must think so."
Loun winced at the positive aura that Eli always showed. He's too innocent that easy to fool. Poor girl.
"I'm a little worried. Well, I'll be going too so I guess nothing bad will happen."
"Of course Loun, then I permission to see Mr Yorris."
Eli bowed respectfully, Loun did nothing but agreed and watched her leave. There was a sound of a sigh and then Loun went to his room.
"Where have you been?"
"In any company, the secretary is always with the boss. They are right behind the boss."
Eli winced. "Senior Stephan has represented me. I went to the toilet and happened to meet Loun."
"Loun?" Yorris' mood worsened again, he took a step closer to Eli. "You call him Loun at work, how close are you two?"
Eli was alert, Yorris proceed one step and Eli took one step back. "We're not as close as you think. Our relationship is a few grades below yours with him. Only colleagues and subordinates."
"So you're saying he told you to call his name while still in the office?"
"That's how it is."
Yorris sighed exasperatedly. Eli becomes annoying too.
"What did I say about not getting near other guys?"
"What can I do? He's the CEO so I can't keep avoiding it. If it's not discussing work I don't want to either."
Eli pouted, unable to stop thinking about Yorris' way of thinking. It's always Eli who gets blamed as if Yorris, the wise man is never wrong. The bossy CEO feels that he is always right, so it is easy to step on employee self-esteem. Eli did not want to be treated like that.
"You're just going too far," Eli blurted out hesitantly.
Yorris gasp. "Let's go. Our job here is done."
Eli nodded. She will tidy up her luggage which is not much but valuable. As she was about to open the door she suddenly heard a knock. Due to the close Eli opened the door. After all, regardless of the far door or not, it's still Eli who has to open it.
"Hello."
"Hello." Eli smiled awkwardly. The guest is Miss Cindy.
It was as if Eli didn't exist Cindy passed her without much trouble even though Eli was still at the door.
"He's slim and perfect, but doesn't appreciate me," Eli muttered to herself.
"I want to talk to you one-on-one, could you please ask her to go?"
Eli turned to look at Cindy and Yorris. It wasn't Eli's wish to wait, which only led to Yorris telling her to leave. She should be right out.
"Excuse me, Miss Cindy, let's make an appointment. Now I want to return to Jordan Corp."
Cindy didn't argue, she was too shocked to be treated like that. Yorris shouldn't have refused an invitation to talk to her. Cindy glanced at Eli who was steadfast, with not much change in the expression on her face. She still looks stupid as usual.
"Let's go."
"Okay, Mr."
There is no scene of Yorris holding Eli's hand. He was professional and Eli was very grateful for that. Before leaving Eli took the time to bow respectfully towards Cindy.
"Damn it."
Cindy chuckled in annoyance and stepped on the floor as if it were Yorris and Eli.
Cindy's breathing was ragged. "I will repay you, Yorris." Cindy's eyes showed determination.
***
Yorris' footsteps were very wide so Eli had a hard time keeping up. In contrast to Stephan who was not far beside Yorris.
"You have trouble walking because of your clothes?"
"Clothes and high heels."
Yorris slowed down so Eli can keep pace. "Now it's already better?"
"Yes." Eli nodded slightly moved Yorris understood the situation even though they were almost to the car.
Stephan opened the door for Yorris as usual while Eli opened the car door for herself. Yorris saw Eli through the tail of the eye and then got into the car.
"We stopped at the mall."
Stephan looked to the back because Yorris' request was out of habit. Even when dating Cindy during working hours, the two of them never shopped. Each of them is busy.
"Okay, Mr."
Stephan took a look at the confused Eli. Inwardly thinking whether she made a mistake again. Eli remembers nothing wrong.
Arriving at the mall Eli went go out quickly to open the car door for Yorris. Stephan also had the same intention so the two of them scrambled to open the door. Fed up with the childish behavior of his two secretaries Yorris opened the other door.
Waiting for them to finish is too long.
