Cindy stared at Eli flatly as if Eli was some disgusting filth to be avoided. It was obvious that it was a look of condescension, therefore Eli got up as quickly as possible.
Eli is not a mood destroyer!
Not to mention disturbing the view.
Cindy must learn to respect other people.
"Excuse me, Miss, what can I help you with?"
"Nothing, excuse me."
Eli's forehead creased, Miss Cindy just walked past her. Remembering they were going to hold a small meeting, Eli couldn't help but hold Cindy. While smiling widely Eli said friendly. "Sorry Miss, you can't meet Mr Yorris."
"This is different from before, I already made a promise."
Cindy exudes a very strong aura of superiority, if Eli is directly confronted she will have trouble. She nodded understandingly. "Sorry, but the schedule collided with our small meeting. So sorry, but you will have to wait."
"I won't be long. Don't get in the way."
Eli gets hit very easily because of the body difference. When compared Eli is only up to Miss Cindy's nose while Eli's comparison with Yorris is that Eli is as tall as the man's shoulders.
Being a petite girl has positives and negatives, but Eli hates being seen as small among people.
"Humph, she's being casual."
"But I'm only talking about it behind my back, not directly. I have to strengthen my resolve before I can fight it," Eli said self-consciously letting Cindy do whatever she wanted to do while she had to find Stephan.
There's a lot of work to be done. If Yorris scolds her, then Eli will find a way out.

"You're leaving now and I don't have to follow?"
Eli watched Yorris's movements as he was getting ready to leave. The man nodded. "That's right, I'll take Stephan so you stay. Keep an eye on Jean, he said he'll be here in a minute."
Eli's eyes blinked several times remembering that Yorris had forbidden her to get close to other men. Remembering that they were working at that time Eli smiled knowingly. Yorris was being professional he didn't do anything wrong.
"Okay, see you later."
"Of course."
Eli was rooted to the spot, and suddenly Yorris kissed her forehead. The interaction was like that of a married couple in general, but what made Eli more confused was that this was the first time Yorris kissed her forehead. This affection made Eli feel carried away so that her joy was unstoppable.
"Take care of yourself."
Yorris spoke while waving his hand like an idol boy. Eli wanted to be annoyed but still drowned in the euphoria Yorris created.
"Don't let me be lulled let alone get used to his sweet demeanor. It's not me who has to be caught up in his charm but he who has to be impressed with me," Eli said to herself to convince herself not to like Yorris.
Eli wasn't ready to fall so deeply that she couldn't get up.
Eli returned to her room, where she can eat some cookies while working. As long as Yorris isn't around Eli will eat a lot while working at the office.

"Take this project, I'm sure you won't let me down right, Mr. Jordan?"
Yorris stared flatly occasionally seeing Miss Cindy. At that meeting, Yorris found out that Cindy's family was not just businessmen, but the mafia. Yorris certainly couldn't take action carelessly, the lives of those closest to him were lost in the slightest mistake.
Their power is more or less the same as well as their influence. The problem is that lives cannot be replaced and time cannot be repeated. Yorris didn't want to regret it.
In the end, Yorris smiled faintly. "Of course Mr. Kaiserslu. I will not let you down."
"Good. No need to be formal with me. Let's talk casually."
"Of course."
Yorris fixed his suit, on the other side of the room Cindy smiled faintly then shifted the coffee cup that had been on the table for quite a while Yorris which never drunk.
"Please drink Yorris."
Yorris smiled. "No need to bother, I'm not thirsty."
Cindy was a little off guard so she pouted. It was the first time in front of her parents that she was hospitable to guests, once she did it she was refused.
Cindy averted her eyes.
"I heard that you are married but not on your honeymoon yet. Don't work all the time Mr Jordan, you only live once so don't waste it. Take a vacation for your mental well-being."
"I took the project into the woods and it was more than enough as a holiday for me."
Mr. Kaiserlu chuckled then as if they had known each other for a long time, those parents patted Yorris on the shoulder like they were father and son.
"When I was young like you I dreamed of going on a natural forest tour and Cindy said she also had the same dream as me. Invite her to come with you."
***
"It sucks, they think they can control me. I have to do something about it."
"What happened?"
Yorris almost fell over by Eli who came from nowhere suddenly came and spoke. Yorris was in a bad mood being surprised like that, he getting more and more annoyed.
The more annoying, Eli asked with an innocent face.
"Go away, you won't be able to help me."
Yorris' hand moved to shoo Eli away like a mosquito. Eli just smiled slightly not offended at all.
"Are you sure? Who knows I can help you."
Yorris with a straight face couldn't stand Eli. "Don't talk nonsense." He got up wanting to go make milk to improve his mood.
There is a maid at home, even though it's not uncommon for Yorris to make his milk. Yorris adheres to the principle that if he's not busy, he's in the mood and can do it, he'll get things done alone.
"You didn't write?"
In Yorris's hand was a medium-sized tab used for work. In his eyes perched distinctive round glasses.
When at home, not only Yorris, Eli also uses glasses. She will use it when she wants to or not wear it at all.
