President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 255

I could hardly believe my eyes.

They kissed passionately for a long time. Many people around could not help looking at them.

But they didn’t care and kept kissing.

My heart pounded when I saw this!

I couldn’t accept what I saw!

Why did Cindy kiss another man?

Did she cheat?

Did Sean know?

I was flustered.

They kissed for almost two minutes. The man put his arm around Cindy's waist. They passed in front of me and left.

I watched Cindy leave and I was in a mixed mood.

In my heart, Cindy was really a typical elegant lady. How could she be such a person?

Who was this man?

When I hesitated, my cell phone rang. The workers from Sceaux got off the plane.

I picked up the two workers. I arranged their accommodation and gave them a night’s rest.

The next day I took them to the construction site and asked them to tell the workers how to execute the design drawings.

With the help of these two people, the construction could be carried out smoothly.

After this matter was solved, I increasingly felt that if I wanted to work in York, it was really important to have a good construction team.

If not, I couldn’t do anything.

After the matter was settled, the later work continued.

The two workers stayed here for about two weeks. Because the workers of York Architecture and Landscape Design Institute were very stubborn, I was afraid that my workers would be bullied here. So I adjusted my schedule and went to the construction site from time to time.

I didn’t continue my design until these two people left.

I had almost finished the landscape design.

The rest would be finished in two weeks.

As for interior design, I only needed to be responsible for the main part, and David’s people would do the rest.

I continued to work overtime in the evening.

At two o’clock in the middle of the night, I stretched. I made a cup of coffee and wanted to go back to work.

Suddenly there was a knock at the door!

I was so scared that I almost threw the coffee cup away!

Who came here so late?

Was it a thief?

I hid behind the door and put the cup down quietly and didn’t dare to speak.

The knock continued outside the door.

I held my breath and looked at my cell phone not far away. When I wanted to walk over and called the police.

I heard someone opening the door with the key!

Then the door opened!

I stood at the door and looked at the black mug next to me. I picked it up. When someone came in, I just threw it at that person without thinking!

“Bang!”

I heard a muffled sound and the cup fell to the ground.

When I looked up again, I saw Sean covering his forehead and looking at me suspiciously. He asked me, “why don’t you talk?”

“Sorry, President Jessop!” I was scared. How could it be Sean? I explained, “I didn’t expect you to come here in the middle of the night.”

I looked down and saw the black mug on the ground. Although it was of good quality.

Its handle was separated from the body of the cup. The body of the cup was broken into three or four pieces.

I quickly squatted down. He stopped me when I wanted to pick up the pieces. “I’ll do it. Don’t hurt your hand.”

He bent down and carefully placed the pieces in his palm and threw them into the garbage can.

I looked at Sean and thought of Cindy kissing another man.

Did he know about it?

I couldn’t ask him now.

Sean came up to my computer. He looked at the design and frowned, “it’s too late. Why are you still working?”

“I’m used to working at night.”

I explained.

Sean said nothing. He directly pulled a chair next to him and said, “OK, then you can continue to work, and I will accompany you.”

He put his hands on the table and his black eyes looked at me.

I couldn’t work at all.

I had no choice but to save the design drawings. I stood up. “President Jessop, I’m going to bed.”

Sean didn’t move.

I could only go upstairs with two mobile phones. As I walked, I said, “President Jessop, I’m going to have a rest. You remember to turn off the light.”

Sean was downstairs so I dared not do anything upstairs. It wasn’t until I heard him turn off the lights and leave and the sound of the car engine coming from outside that I was relieved.

I quietly went downstairs and turned on my computer and went on working.

When I got back to my senses, it was morning again.

I saved the papers and went upstairs to wash my face and brush my teeth. When I was going to sleep, I heard a car outside.

It was always quiet around here.

The car came from far to near and stopped at the door. The sound was particularly obvious.

Who was coming?

Ming would not come at this time.

When I stood at the corner of the stairs, there was a knock on the door.

“Who is it!”

I went downstairs while I was doing my hair.

After a while I heard Sean’s voice coming from outside the door, “me.”

His voice was like a time bomb.

Why did he come here?

But he was standing at the door and he was the investor, so I had to go downstairs and open the door for him.

When I opened the door, I saw a van parked behind him.

Some workers were unloading something over there.

“This is...”

“To prevent you from staying up late to work, I’ll work here from today.”

Sean came straight in.

I didn’t sleep all night and was confused. It took me several seconds to react!

I stood in front of him. “You can’t be here!”

“Why?”

He looked down at me.

But then I realized that I forgot to change my voice again.

I was slow at the time. I thought about it for a while before I said, “President Jessop, you know I live here. You’re a man, so it’s not convenient for me.”

“I’m just here during the day.” Sean didn’t care, “and you can rest upstairs. I won’t go upstairs unless there is a fire or an earthquake.”

“President Jessop, I don’t have a private space.”

“Private space?” He listened to me and looked a little angry. He looked down at me. “Will you bring men back?”

“Of course no.”

I knew I was sleepy so I couldn’t convince Sean at all.

I could only obey him first. When I woke up, I would find a way to let him go.

Although later I realized that once he came in, he could hardly leave.

Unfortunately, I didn’t understand at that time.
