A Moment in Destiny

“The sea breeze is so strong, stop crying, it will destroy your face!” Marley said.

“I’m alright!” She shook her head and wiped her tears swiftly. “I’m really alright!”

Actually, she was just touched by his concern, that was all!

She didn’t feel anything after Sadie had hit her! She was already used to it. She sobbed for a little while, and finally calmed down.

She looked at Marley. “Marley?”

“Yes?” He looked at her too.

“Can you give me a hug?”

Marley was stunned for a second.

He then laughed, opened up his arms, and hugged her slender body, his arms tight around her.

His hug was very warm, so warm that it made her very nostalgic.

She quietly reached out her arms and placed them on his back. She suddenly felt her heart contract, that feeling spread to her arms and limbs, and her hands and feet were trembling. She rested her head on his shoulder, and smelt the tobacco on his body. At the moment she closed her eyes, her tears slid down.

She loved Marley!

Yes!

She had loved him since she was seventeen years old when she first met him!

But, this love, had been so tough and so difficult to comprehend. Now that he was being so nice to her, she was even more afraid, afraid that everything was just a dream, and once she woke up, everything would be gone!

A few minutes later, she said softly, “Let’s go to work! There’re still a lot of things to be done!”

After that, Marley took her back to the company.

Her hair was down today, her long hair covered the red fingerprint on her face, so no one noticed that she had been hit.

As for what happened yesterday, she apologized to Aila.

Once she reached the office, at the secretary desk, in front of Marley, Tyler, and a few other secretaries, Sylvie walked over to Aila, “Aila, it was me who took the wrong USB yesterday, I’m sorry!”

Tyler was stunned for a second, then his face showed appreciation, he exchanged a quiet glance with Marley. It required a lot of strength for her to publicly admit her wrongdoings. Many people tried their best to cover it up when they realized they had made a mistake. She on the other hand was great, daring to apologize openly.

Marley stood at the side, watching her apologize. He then heard Sylvie say, “It was me who wasn’t careful yesterday, I will accept the CEO’s punishment, I’m sorry! I’m sorry for bringing trouble to everyone!”

Aila was slightly surprised in the beginning, she didn’t say anything after that, but turned to look at Marley.

As for Marley, he didn’t even take a look at her, but his gaze towards Sylvie was now filled with praise. Aila lowered her head, bit her lips, her gaze was dim.

“Sylvie, your mistake was indeed very naive, you will definitely be punished, I’ll think about it and let you know!” Marley instructed simply and left for the CEO room.

Sylvie also returned to her seat.
