The Most Loving Marriage: Don't Be Too Bad, Mr President novel Chapter 137

"By the way, no one else knew about your divorce in the company, right?" Covi asked after swallowing her food.

"Yeah, aside from Madam Chung and manager Lee, you are the only one that know about it." Annabelle said.

Madam Chung was the previous HR manager. Therefore, the moment she entered the company, the woman found out. And after manager Lee learnt of her divorce, she told Covi as well.

Of course, she didn't include Alistair!

He was never someone that Annabelle would include.

When Covi heard that, she nodded, "got it!"

Actually, it wasn't any big secret but because Annabelle was always low-profile and she wasn't interested to speak about herself.

The two colleagues went back to work after finishing their meal.

Covi did not have a big mouth. And with how much Annabelle trusted her, she wouldn't be blabbering her mouth anyway.

For the whole afternoon, manager Lee did not say anything.

After finishing work, Annabelle went home directly. Once she reached home, she realized that she ran out of ingredients in her fridge. Hence, she went out to shop.

The market wasn't too far away but she needed to walk there. Therefore, Annabelle changed into a casual wear.

She was completely different during and after work.

The moment she reached the supermarket, she went to buy her favorite junk food first and then some coffee, red wine. When she was picking her goods, all of a sudden, she met a person.

It was none other than manager Lee.

The moment Annabelle saw him, she was a little perturbed. She hadn't thought that she would be meeting him there.

But manager Lee seemed to be in bliss.

"Miss Xia? What a coincidence to meet you here!" Manager Lee looked at Annabelle and spoke. The man was smiling happily.

Annabelle stood opposite him. When she heard the man, she smiled indifferently, "yeah, what a coincidence!"

"You stay around here?" Manager Lee asked.

Annabelle nodded and she was unwilling to disclose too much of her personal information. But manager Lee didn't give up and he continued, "Look at how many things you bought, let me send you back after that. I drove."

Annabelle smiled, "there's no need, I stay nearby and it's just a short walk."

After hearing that, manager Lee was nothing but awkward.

"Manager Lee, then I shall continue with my shopping." After that, Annabelle pushed her trolley and wanted to leave.

At that moment, manager Lee seemed to recall something and he said, "Miss Xia…"

Annabelle turned back and looked at him, "yes?"

"Miss Xia, actually… I had always been paying attention on you. I wonder if you have any thoughts towards me?" Manager Lee said that all of a sudden.

When Annabelle heard him, she was stunned momentarily. The man had confessed his feelings clearly.

She simply smiled, "I think manager Lee is very competent with your work. You could definitely get a higher position in the future!"

"What I meant is… Your feelings towards me…" Manager Lee said straightforwardly, "what do you think about me?"

Annabelle was frustrated. Was he slow or was she not clear enough?

"Manager Lee, are you courting me?" Annabelle looked at him suddenly and asked.

The man had not expected Annabelle to be so frank and he felt awkward. However, he nodded in agreement.

"Forgive me manager Lee, I do not know why would you think like that but I think we aren't suitable. You are not my type. Moreover, I have no intention to date at the moment!" Annabelle looked at him and she said her mind clearly.

Manager Lee hadn't thought that Annabelle would reject him so unhesitantly.lightnoveldaily.com.
