In the midst of hesitation, Marcel’s phone rang again.
“Alexa, you haven’t come back yet, right?” Marcel’s voice was filled with anxiety and Impatience. “I’ll be working late tonight, remember to bring two portions of food. Also, bring a portion of strawberry sweet soup.”
Nyla’s sweet voice came closer, saying. “You need to add cream!”
I clenched my phone, trembling with anger.
Every time Marcel worked overtime, he would ask me to bring him food. Until three months ago, when he suddenly told me that from now on, the meals 1 bring should be double the amount as before.
“I was already hungry in the evening, and one portion was not enough to eat.”
It was three months ago, which happened to be the time when Nyla started working.
After that, sweet dishes suddenly appeared in Marcel’s recipe book
At that time, I curiously asked him, and he just furrowed his brows and said, “Aren’t you fond of sweet things? I was afraid that you were only thinking about myself and not eating“.
At that time, I was full of joy, thinking that 1 had finally warmed up Marcel, this stone. The iron tree blossomed. But now it seems that there is someone else who made him bloom.
Although I didn’t want to go, the art exhibition still had Marcel’s investment, and some documents still needed his signature.
When I arrived at Marcel’s office door, I was already soaked from the heavy rain.
I pushed the door open in a disheveled state, and happened to meet Nyla’s gaze, who was being held in Marcel’s arms.
“Ah!” Nyla exclaimed, quickly standing up. “You’re here.”
Marcel rubbed Nyla’s hastily bumped hand back, dissatisfied. “What’s the rush? Look, your hand is all red.”
“I was just worried that you might misunderstand me,” Nyla playfully stuck out her tongue.
Marcel scotted lightly and said, “She’s also worthy? As he lifted his eyelids, he coolly glanced at me and said, “What, do I still need to invite her?”
“Alexa, you were twenty minutes late today and you made a mess in my office with dirty water. Shouldn’t you give me an explanation?”
My body, drenched by the rain, shivered from the cold, causing my lips to turn blue. I could hardly speak, remaining silent as I placed the thermal bag on the table.
“It rained,
1, causing heavy traffic during the evening rush hour.”
Marcel frowned and softened his tone, “Why didn’t you take a taxi?
I paused, the wet clothes were indeed uncomfortable, there was no need to struggle with my own body. I nodded and pushed open the wardrobe door, but in the next second, I stood frozen in place,
The wardrobe was filled with unsightly clothes, all of which were Nyla’s size without exception.
I couldn’t suppress the trembling, not knowing whether it was anger or disgust that overwhelmed me. I rushed into the bathroom and hugged the toilet, vomiting
Alter vomiting, I took an alcool wet wipe and wiped my hands. For the first time, I was so grateful that Marcel had a cleanliness obobsession.
I couldn’t be anymore, so I held back my nausea and walked out of the lounge.
