A Moment in Destiny

Due to a sentence said by him which was “The taste is quite good”, she felt delighted unexpectedly. Sylvie Mccarthy was really a fool because she would feel delighted just because of a normal sentence!

Marley Hughes looked at her and said indifferently, “You come to the study room later and copy the documents. Do an analysis tonight!”

Sylvie was slightly stunned and then smiled without any expression, “Oh! Alright!”

Marley saw that there was calmness in her clear eyes then he could not bear from becoming angry, “You can go to sleep only after finishing the analysis!”

“Yes!” She could only nod to agree with it. This was the punishment mentioned by him before.

Then, they remained silent and the atmosphere became gloomy. After finishing a bowl of rice, Marley put down his chopsticks and bowl, “Any more rice?”

“Yes!” Sylvie quickly stood up, “Let me serve you!”

When Marley was about to finish his second bowl of rice, Sylvie was full already and she gently put down her chopsticks. “Mr Hughes, I am full already!”

Marley only replied with a “Ya”. 

Sylvia tidied the cutlery and went to the kitchen. When she got back, she realized that Marley went missing and there was nothing in the plates on the table. The plates were completely empty. She was slightly stunned and looked everywhere but she did not find any leftovers that were being thrown away. Was it possible that he finished everything?

At that moment, she was shocked because she did not believe it. She tidied up the cutlery and brought them into the kitchen to wash them. After cleaning the table and washing her hands, she went upstairs.

Before she knocked on the door of the study room, the door had been opened from inwards. When Marley, who was carrying a laptop, saw her, he directly handed over it to her.

“You do it in your room and the report is at the desktop. After finishing your analysis, come to see me!”

“Yes!” Sylvie took over and looked into his study room through the door crack. The room was filled with smoke and a pungent smoke smell. He was holding a cigarette in his hand. 

“Smoke less!” Without any reason, she said something to care for him. 

Marley was going to turn around but he stopped. He looked at her from the side of his eyes and said due to confusion, “Sylvie, it’s none of your business. Do you really think that you are Mrs Hughes? So, do you dare to be fearless in front of me?”

Sylvie was stunned and looked at him who suddenly said something sharp and intense. She also remembered that he suddenly stopped his car and looked at him with his hatred eyes. She looked at him and said, “I have never become fearless and I never want to bother Mr Hughes’s matters. I just want to remind you that smoking is detrimental to health. If you like to smoke, you may do so because no one forces you!”

An analysis report was enough to make Sylvie feel a backache. When she was almost finishing, she stretched herself and looked at the time which was already twelve o’ clock. She was hitting on the keyboard rapidly to enter some professional data. The thing that Marley gave her was an analysis report regarding the financial investment market.

At first, she summed up the effect analysis on both the positive and negative aspects. Then, she summarized and analyzed the influence of foreign banks on Chinese’s monetary policy.

Also, she did the effect analysis of the retail financial market. After finishing, she tidied up all the documents and logged in her QQ account habitually. Surprisingly, she saw Sunshine who was online. Sylvie felt delighted and opened the conversation box hurriedly. Then, she typed out a few words and sent them over.
