A Graduation Gift

Chapter 83 A Hard-working Woman

In Cassandra's office, the Tang Group business went on as usual.

"This document is not specific enough. Please recollect the data and give it to me before you go off duty...

NIC, follow these cases. We must finish them and sign the contract before the alliance election. It's very important...

Give these materials to Mr. Luo.

And don't forget to let him sign on the contract..."

Across the sofa from Cassandra, Stella sat cupping her chin and looking at her with a sad face.

Though they were supposed to go to yoga together on their day off, Cassandra was just informed that she needed to work overtime, and their plan went up in smoke.

Almost pouting, Stella stared at the woman who immersed herself in work, wanting to be indulged even a little.

"Alas…

I've never seen a woman work so hard…like you."

With a moan and shake of the head, Stella leaned back against the sofa in disappointment.

Her words amused Cassandra at once, she raised her head to find that Stella was bored to death.

"I've never heard of a public relations manager urging her colleague to loaf on the job," she teased with a playful smile.

Upon hearing this, Stella suddenly sat up straight and pretended to look dignified.

"Manager Qin, I apologize for what I've said. I hope you enjoy your work and don't need any time to relax and find a boyfriend."

Cassandra's heart sank upon hearing the term, 'boyfriend.' She thought in her heart, 'So Stella still doesn't know I've married Lionel…

We have been very close yet I keep her in the dark. What if she knows my real identity? Could we still joke like this?'

Feeling disheartened at such thoughts, her smile gradually faded as she lowered her head and went back to work.

'I have a sister who doesn't believe me and a mother who treats me like a tool. My husband…we are a couple only in name. Although I have a best friend, I can't tell her everything about me.'

Noticing that Cassandra lowered her head again, Stella was in a fret.

"I'm so bored that I'm about to fall asleep."

Without facing her, Cassandra beamed.
