President's Substitute Wife

I knew Ming would be a good husband and father.

But...

“You are my best choice, but...” I looked at Ming and hesitated before I said, “you’re fine. I want to completely forget him and accept you, or it will be unfair to you.”

He wore glasses with transparent frame, and his face was still gentle. He heard my words and smiled at me.

He didn’t seem surprised by what I said.

He reached out and held my hand. The warm temperature passed to me through his palm. He shook his head gently. “I don’t force you to put me first. I just want to be by your side. You don’t have to put too much pressure on yourself.”

“You’re always like that, so I want to put you first.”

I said to Ming.

In the end, I had only a small area and they didn’t give me a special office.

When I took the meeting materials to the office door, I saw several designers standing at the door and looking at the office and whispering.

“What’s the matter?”

I walked over and looked into the office.

I saw a person sitting in front of my computer!
