Chapter 13 Don't Pull A Long Face in Front of Our Boss

###Chapter 13 Don't Pull A Long Face in Front of Our Boss



After meeting Vivian, Pamela didn't want to stay outside any longer and went back to the banquet hall.


But when she left and met Vivian, she came back to see that man again.


Pamela was in a bad mood!


Seeing that Pamela stood still, Kayla was shocked again.


"Pamela, hurry up! Do you want the boss to wait for you?" Kayla said angrily.


At last, she even poured a full glass of red wine in Pamela's glass and handed it to her.


"Hurry up! You are the only one left in our team! Don't damage the image of our whole project team in Mr. Stephen's heart just because of you!" Kayla handed the full glass to Pamela and asked her to continue.


Pamela cursed inwardly!


She thought that she must make more money and leave LC to go back to America as soon as possible, so that she wouldn't be so depressed during the transition period in America and could afford the expenses of her and Anthony.


With a glass of wine in her hand, Pamela followed Kayla to the first table nearest to the stage.


Martin was sitting at the top seat and chatting with others.


On the left sat the general manager, and on the right, it was Vivian who had just met her at the door.


Vivian held his arm and whispered in his ear, trying to please him.


Looking at the two intimate people, Pamela felt inexplicably bitter in her heart. A small scene made her choked with sobs, and even her feet were as heavy as lead.


It was so heavy that she was eager to stand still and do not want to get close to them.


Seeing that Pamela slowed down her pace, Kayla thought that she was going to be supercilious to her boss again, so she slipped away without saying goodbye.


Kayla grabbed her arm and pushed her forward, preventing her from escaping and said sternly, "Pamela, don't pull a long face in front of our boss! Let him see your smiling face, okay?"


She arrived at the table where he was very soon because she was pushed by Kayla. So she was the first one to propose a toast!


Instead of Kayla, she stood beside him.


Pamela was so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a hole in the ground to hide herself. Being seen by Vivian like this, she wanted her to gossip again.


"Mr. Stephen, all the members of our project team are here! Congratulations on your acquiring company and its opening ceremony! And wish LC a prosperous development!"


Kayla raised her glass and smiled, "a toast to you from all the members of our project team!"


The team members proposed a toast to Martin.


There were more than 20 people in the project team, which filled the whole table.


All the more than 20 people stood there with wine glasses in their hands. Only Martin was sitting on the chief position, looking arrogant!


Pamela didn't raise her glass to this arrogant guy!


She just held the glass and didn't raise it.


The man sitting next to her looked at her lazily.


The look in his eyes was extremely sharp!


Seeing this, Pamela almost thought that his boss was blaming her, but the next second


He picked up the glass on the table and said indifferently, "OK."


Everyone nodded and cheered. But who dared to give Martin the cold shoulder?


They all drank up the wine in unison!


Only Pamela did as she was told and took a symbolic sip.


Then, after toasting, the glasses of more than twenty people were all empty, except the two full glasses of Pamela and Martin, as if they had never drunk before.


Kayla rolled her eyes at her, as if saying, "are you really so slighted to the boss?"


Then, with a flattering smile on her face, Kayla said, "Mr. Stephen, please leave two minutes for our project team to get familiar with the people in our team!"


"Okay," said Martin.


Then, Kayla began to introduce herself. The others stood aside and listened.


The scene was like an ancient Chinese emperor in the court. The emperor was sitting on a dragon chair and the ministers were talking.


Pamela was the closest one to him. Standing next to him, he could even see that he was looking at every self introduction.


He was very serious, but very indifferent.


Two minutes later, when it was Pamela's turn, he didn't look at her.


It seemed that he had forgotten that she was the last one at this end because of the clockwise introduction.


Seeing that the man had no intention to speak, Kayla was afraid that Pamela might say something wrong, so she hurriedly ended, "Mr. Stephen, then our project team will leave first! Enjoy yourself!"


"Did you miss a person who introduced herself?" Said Martin indifferently.


When he sat down, he looked at Pamela with his deep eyes.


Hearing what the CEO said, Kayla nodded, "yes, yes! Pamela hasn't introduced herself yet! Mr. Stephen doesn't even know you!"


Here, everyone who introduced themselves to Martin, no matter men or women, had admiration and fawning, and after that, they had to refill their glass.


It was Pamela's turn, Pamela said five words indifferently, "I'm Pamela."


Nothing more.


She didn't want to say much, much less than what he had said on the stage just now!
