Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett's POV: 

Just like Abner had advised, I went to the party with Linda.I had been to this kind of gathering before.But until now, I was still not used to it.I did not like drinking either.

After all, alcohol was the most common excuse people used after making a mistake.

The first thing I saw when I entered the private room were several men with bulging bellies and empty wine bottles.It appeared that they had been drinking long before Linda and I had arrived.A fat, bald man waved at me and said, "You're late.Miss Riley, why don't you sit next to me? I have something to tell you."

He then glanced at the young blonde woman who was sitting next to him.

As if on cue, the woman, probably his secretary, stood up and offered her seat to me.

"This is Mr.Valdez, the CEO of Valdez Group,"

Linda whispered in my ear before I walked over to him.

I immediately understood what she meant by that.

That man was someone I could not afford to offend.

He had invited me enthusiastically.

It would be disrespectful to decline.

As I slowly made my way to him, I unconsciously tugged the hem of my dress, lengthening it for an inch or two.I sat next to Mr.Valdez and forced a smile.

"Scarlett, you're more beautiful than I thought.When I first saw you on TV, I thought your legs under your skirt must be smooth and enticing."

Mr.Valdez looked at me with a lecherous gaze and even put his hand on my thigh.I felt that the smile on my face must be stiff.

"You must be more beautiful in bed.Scarlett, a lady like you should wear short skirts often, so you can make more men think with their dicks."

Mr.Valdez continued to make lewd and sexist remarks, and the men he was with laughed heartily at his jokes.

I felt humiliated and indignant.I felt an urge to kick him on the part where it hurt the most.But, of course, I could not do that.Unable to do anything, I took a deep breath and restrained myself.

"If you say so, Mr.Valdez.I will consider your suggestion," I replied with a forced smile.

It was obviously a lie.

If only I could, I would tell him to go fuck himself.

Sadly, saying that would cost me my job.

Mr.Valdez lit a cigarette and turned to Linda.

"Linda, you have an obedient subordinate here.But she's still a newbie.You should teach her more."

"I will, Mr.Valdez."

Linda agreed with a smile.
