A Moment in Destiny

Sylvie Mccarthy stopped for a while, shook her head, and smiled. "I got it! Roger that!"  

After the meal, he tidied up everything, looked for a pair of slippers for her, considerately he took an entire bag of snacks and drinks.  

"Let’s go, we’re heading back to the office!" said Marley Hughes while holding her hand, he later opened the car door and helped her into the car.  

After waiting for him to enter the car, she tilted her head to look at him and asked, "You still need me to accompany you to work, does that mean that I still need to work too? My leave is not over yet!"   

"If you’re bored, you can read the documents with me, I will teach you some other stuff, right inside my office!" Said Marley as he held the steering wheel with both of his hands and accelerated.  

The car safely left the garage and drove towards other villas just around the corner.  

At the office, Marley entered the building while holding her wrist.  

Before then everyone was confused about Sylvie’s resignation, but when they saw the president enter the office holding hands with his wife, immediately they understood everything. Everything said in the newspaper was not true!  

In the lobby.  

Right on the couch of the reception room on the lower floor, sat an idle man, greeting them from a distance, "Good morning, my cousin and sister-in-law!" said Ernie Hughes.  

Ernie was casually dressed while crossing his long legs. He had a pair of bright eyes, even though he wasn’t looking at anyone, he still seemed to be giving eye contact to everyone. With a lazy look, slack attitude, and a slight sense of prestige, he was waiting for them!  

Sylvie was confused for a while, her hands were stiff.  

Marley sensed that she was feeling uneasy, deep down he still knew that Ernie was somehow affecting her, he then gently grabbed her hand and greeted Ernie calmly, "Good morning!"   

Marley walked with Sylvie into the elevator, Ernie also followed in.  

The elevator rose quite fast, Ernie gave her a dazzling smile that seemed to mean something and said, "Sister-in-law, you seemed to look better and better, did something good happen to you? Why don’t you share it with me so I can be happy too? "   

"You should just carry on with your work," Sylvie calmly replied.  

She was still afraid after being forcefully kissed by him last time, ‘What did he still want?’ she thought.  

Without any consideration, Ernie said, "Dear cousin, we seemed to have not had a meal together before, do you want to have lunch together this afternoon? The treat is on me, I don’t know whether the both of you are willing to join or not?"  

"No need, we are quite busy," said Marley coldly without waiting for her to reply.  

Ernie laughed cunningly, obviously not willing to give in, and said, "Is that so? Shall I just order delivery instead? You can have it in the office, you still need to eat no matter how busy you are, don't you?"
