Honey You Are My Lucky Star (Callen and Chelsea)

Chapter 344

Because it was time for work, the welcoming ceremony for the newcomers was soon over. The colleagues in the office also left the company as soon as possible. Only Abbie and I stayed in the company without saying a word, waiting for everyone to leave.

After Liu Qian and her other colleagues left, she stood silently beside Abbie, her lips curled into a smile as she looked at me.

"Chelsea, long time no see." Abbie was the first to speak.

There was no other way. I picked up my bag and walked out of my seat. Standing in front of her, I said with a smile, "If I can, I really want to see you in the future."

"What should we do? It won't be long before we meet again. Do you want to resign?" Abbie pretended to be in a dilemma and said to me. However, we were well aware of whether she was in a dilemma or not.

"Sister Ling, how can you resign so easily?" Liu Qian, who was standing on the side, couldn't wait to say.

I subconsciously looked at Liu Qian, and our eyes met.

Liu Qian was stunned for a moment, then she shifted her gaze away and said to Abbie, "I still remember how you took care of us in the company. Who knows what would happen if it were someone else? Besides..."

"Besides, Sister Chelsea is just in a relationship. How can she tolerate you like this?" Liu Qian was about to say something, but she finally said all she wanted to say.

When she finished speaking, Abbie looked at me. There seemed to be a hint of mockery in her eyes, as if she was showing off to me.

But what was she showing off? Was she showing off Liu Qian's support for her?

At the thought of such a possibility, I laughed. My smile also made Abbie unhappy. "What's so funny? You really don't have any manners. Otherwise, why wouldn't you respect people?"

"I was just thinking about something. Why are you so angry, Miss Ling?" I asked with a smile.

Liu Qian, who was standing on the side, immediately retorted, "It's absolutely a lie! At this time, how could you think of something and laugh like this? You must have some bad ideas in your heart. I just don't want us to know."

As she spoke, Abbie narrowed her eyes and looked at me. "Harrison knows about my return today. Your bad ideas are useless."

Harrison did not expect that Abbie would come back, but in order not to let the two people in front of me see that I knew nothing, I pretended to be calm and said, "You said that Harrison also knew that you came back. How could I have any other ideas?"

"Who knows what's on your mind? Aren't you just good at looking pitiful?" Abbie asked in reply.

I didn't want to talk to her at all, so I simply said, "If there's nothing else, I'll go first. After all, I don't have your leisure time."

Carrying my bag, I walked past them and went straight to the elevator.

Initially, he was worried that Abbie and Liu Qian would not let me leave, so he stayed here and continued to pull. However, he did not expect that they would not react after standing at the elevator door for a while, as if they had no feelings for my departure at all.

This made me sigh in relief, but at the same time, I also felt a little uneasy, as if there was some kind of conspiracy behind Abbie's return.

At this moment, the elevator doors slowly opened. I was about to step in when a figure blocked my way. Then I saw Harrison and Gao Yang coming out of the elevator.

Harrison frowned and asked unhappily, "Didn't I tell you not to leave first?"

"... When did you tell me that?" I woke up from my shock and asked.

After getting my answer, Harrison naturally looked behind me with a dissatisfied expression.

"Miss Hodges is in a hurry to leave as soon as I appeared. How can I still have the chance to say that you will come over later and ask her not to leave first?" Liu Qian said in an aggrieved tone as she walked.

I felt very uncomfortable and insisted, "It has nothing to do with her. I just feel a little tired and want to go back early."

"Could it be that you're unhappy because I asked Abbie to come back?" Gao Yang, who was standing behind Harrison, suddenly asked.

The corners of Gao Yang's mouth curled into a smile as he looked at me, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't bring himself to laugh. His words had stuck in my throat, and I didn't know how to answer. Thinking back, I had Abbie and Liu Qian behind me, and there was Gao Yang waiting for me in front of me. It was really an attack from both sides.

Harrison held my hand and said in a deep voice, "Are you really unhappy?"

Having known Harrison for such a long time, of course I understood that his tone indicated that he was a little unhappy and even showing signs of anger. But what could I say?

Should I hypocritically say that I was not unhappy and that Abbie was very happy to come back to work?

No, I can't say that out loud!

"What does Abbie have to do with me? Why should I hypocritically say that I'm happy? I can't forgive any of what she has done to me!"

Having thought through all this, I looked at the corner of Gao Yang’s mouth and said softly, "I'm just not happy. Does Mr. Gao have any objections?"

Gao Yang was stunned. Obviously, he was frightened by my words. Probably in his heart, he should have denied it immediately. After all, all women did not want to show a bad side in men's eyes, but what I did at this time was contrary.

I ignored Gao Yang's reaction and turned to Abbie, who was behind me, and said, "It's really because Miss Ling has a deep impression of what I have done that I can't forget at all. Naturally, I can't face your return as usual."

"Chelsea..."

Harrison's shout made me look away. His eyes made it difficult for me to guess and see through him, just like what he had done.

No matter what I thought, I couldn't figure out why he did this. Even though he knew how bad the relationship between me and Abbie was and how much she had hurt him, he still chose to let Abbie return.

He might have difficulties or had no choice but to do so. But what should I do? I don't want to know the reason and his suffering at all.

"In fact, you know that I asked for leave today, and you also know why I stayed. So don't teach me at this time, okay?" I said to Harrison in a low voice with a smile.

Harrison didn't answer, nor did he show any sign of blame.

I ignored their reaction and went into the elevator. In front of the elevator, I said to everyone, "You guys have fun. I won't accompany you." © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

After saying that, I showed the most beautiful smile I thought. The second before I closed the door, I saw Harrison turn around. But when I wanted to see it clearly, the elevator door had been completely closed.

At that moment, I seemed to be hollowed out. I leaned against the elevator door and didn't know what to do. My heart was surprisingly calm, and my mind was like a piece of blank paper. Under such circumstances, I saw Sienna waiting for me at the door of the company.

"Chelsea!" Sienna stood at the door and waved at me with a smile, complaining, "Others have left after work. Why did you come down so late?"

When I confirmed that the person in front of me was Sienna, I rushed to her without hesitation and hugged her, crying with grievance in her dissatisfied complaints.
