Bye, My Irresistible Love

Helen’s POV: 

I admire Phil’s maturity and understanding.

Even after I rejected him, he just put the past behind him and still treated me how a colleague should.

At work, he would guide me, paint out my mistakes, and give me credit where credit was due.

This was how adults should deal with rejection.

Whether we ended up together or not, personal affairs should not interfere with work.I was glad that things worked out this way.

One morning, Anya came to Zhester Technology to report the case’s progress like she always did.

And just like the last time, Soren and George sat at the same table with us at lunch.I was sitting next to Phil and opposite to George.

While we were eating, Soren glanced at Phil and me meaningfully and joked, "Anya could rest assured.It’s a good news for your law firm that Phil is dating Helen!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere at the table changed.The quiet yet light atmosphere became somber and awkward.

George, who had not said a word the whole time, asked Soren, "Since when did you become so gossipy? Don’t you have anything else better to do?"

Being scolded by George, Soren swallowed hard and shut up at once.

Meanwhile, I felt a little embarrassed.It was uncomfortable being teased in front of so many people, especially George.

So, from that moment on, I ate with my head down, so I would not be the center of attention again.

"It’s true.I’m pursuing Helen, but she hasn’t agreed to be my girlfriend."

Phil smiled and added, "But I won’t give up."

I could feel that his eyes were fixed on me as he spoke.

He also sounded confident as if he was certain I would say yes to him in the future.I lowered my head.

The food in my mouth that I was just enjoying had lost its taste.I was not used to making my private life public, especially like this.
