At nearly five o'clock in the afternoon, someone knocked on the door.
Chloe was sitting on the sofa and browsing on Facebook. When she heard the sound, her heart skipped a beat. Then she looked in the direction of the door with great joy.
Did Isaac come back? He certainly couldn't bear to let her eat dinner alone!
At the thought of this, she couldn't help smiling. She knew that he was not as apathetic as he looked.
"Coming!"
She responded loudly. Regardless of the fact that she didn't wear slippers, she hobbled to open the door at the fastest speed.
For the sake of his coming back to have dinner with her, she could forgive him this time. Humph!
"Isaac, did you forget to take the room card..." Before she finished her words, she looked at the person standing outside the door and frowned. The smile on her face faded away, "Why did you come here?"
"Miss Li." Hymen nodded at Chloe very politely, "I'm here to get something for Mr. Bai."
Chloe did not move, "Where is Isaac?"
"Mr. Bai has something to do."
"Is he talking business?"
"Yes."
"When will he be able to finish his work?"
"Well..." Hymen thought for a moment, "I'm not sure."
"Does it mean that he may come back very late?"
Hymen nodded, "Mm. That's why Mr. Bai asked me to tell you that you should rest first. He won't come and disturb you then."
Chloe narrowed her eyes, "What does he mean by that? He won't come back today?"
"Yeah, Mr. Bai said that you need a good rest. So... he asked me to book another room for him."
Hearing this, Chloe took a deep breath. But even so, she was still mad, and she even got furious, "What does he mean by doing this?"
Why did she come all the way here? Even if he didn't want to sleep in the same bed with her, how could he sleep in another room?
What the hell? Was he angry with her?
Hymen did not answer her and just said, "Miss Li, I'll... go in and get Mr. Bai's document. Or, if you think it's inconvenient, could you please get it for me?"
Chloe stared at Hymen and sneered, "It's indeed inconvenient for you to come in. However, I'm sorry. I sprained my ankle, so I can't get it for you."
Hymen was taken aback for a moment. He was in a dilemma, "Miss Li..."
Chloe didn't wait for him to finish his words. She said with a bad temper, "You want the the document? Ask Isaac to come back and get it in person!"
After that, she slammed the door shut unceremoniously, which made a loud noise.
She called her mother that day and her mother persuaded her. After that, she felt that she should control her temper. While staying in the hotel, she had made up her mind that she would apologize to Issacwhen he came back. She would say that she shouldn't have said those words.
But... Isaac went too far, didn't he?
Hymen stared at the tightly closed door, raised his hand and touched his nose. Fortunately, he dodged in time just now. Otherwise, even if his nose was pure and natural, it would be disfigured.
However, he hadn't got the document which Issac needed.
Alas!
He roughly knew Chloe's character. Even if he knocked on the door again, she might not open the door.
After thinking for a while, he had no choice but to call Isaac.
Isaac pursed his lips, "Does your feet hurt?"
After being asked two questions in a row, Chloe shook her head gently.
"What happened?" He was not in a hurry to walk to her, but his tone was no longer as indifferent as it was before he left. It was much tenderer than before.
Chloe did not answer him. Didn't he know why she cried?
"Are you homesick?" Isaac continued, "If you want to go back, I'll get Hymen to send you back."
Hearing this, Chloe immediately turned her head and glared at Isaac with her eyes full of resentment and grievance, and her eyes
became redder and redder. Her lip quivered and she bit it desperately. She had stopped crying, but tears came out of her eyes again.
Isaac frowned slightly and only felt impatient in his heart.
If he could, he really wanted to stay away from the woman in front of him, but... he couldn't do it at the moment!
After pausing for two seconds, he turned around and wanted to get something in the study.
"Issac!"
Isaac stopped. After a few seconds, he replied, "Mm..."
Chloe had no time to wipe the tears on her face. She endured the pain and stood up from the sofa.
Isaac didn't turn around. He heard a scuffling sound. Before he could make sure what it was, he felt warm on his back, and Chloe had hugged his waist tightly...
"Chloe!"
"Issac." Chloe put her face on Isaac's back and rubbed it gently, "Answer me. Do you love me?"
