Chapter 19 I Am Taking a Marriage Leave (Part One)

When he didn't find her on the small camp bed, he was surprised and worried that when he was out, she would also leave. But he didn't expect that it would cause such a big misunderstanding.

"It doesn't matter. I wasn't asleep." With some unspeakable emotion in Elsa's heart, she said lightly, "Go ahead. Don't delay your work. I'll go to bed after reading a novel."

She rubbed her eyes as she walked him out. He looked more decisive and resolute than when he wore casual clothes, and his features were more angular. Her tears had dampened the forepart of his clothes which made him look more gentle.

Seeing the dark circles, although looked better than a few days ago, were still under her eyes, Soren said firmly, "Elsa, I'll count to three, then you have to go to bed!"

Amused by his serious look, Elsa said jokingly, "Boss, I'm not your subordinate officer. You can't command me."

"Why not? You are my director of the logistics department." He took out a file bag from behind and put it in her hand. "The marriage report has been approved. Wait for me to come back! Five days at most!"

Elsa didn't expect that it would be so soon. When she was free, she had searched online today. Some people said that the approval needed fifteen days, and some said that it would be two months. Originally, she wanted to take this period of time as a buffer. If they were really not suitable to be a contractual couple, then they still had a chance to break up.

But as the approval came so fast...

She held the file pocket in her hand, and her heart was filled with mixed feelings.

At this moment, a harsh voice came from outside, "Sir, it's time to go!"
