Queen Revenge

Gabby Yates sent an assistant to the company to pick me up, the dinner place has been booked, there is no room for refusal.

The leader smiled and told me to hurry up, Eric was uneasy and wanted to accompany me, the leader gave him a cold warning look, “Are you done with your own business? With Hill’s business ability, where do you need to add anything to the mess.”

Eric was about to say something else and I gave him a wink to stop.

I got into Gabby Yates’ assistant’s car for the appointment and when I got to the door of the box, my assistant had the sense to stay outside and not go in, “Miss Hill, President Yates is in there.”

I nodded and pushed open the door to enter.

In the large box, there was really only Gabby Yates alone, a table that could accommodate more than twenty people, he sat there alone, his aura was fully open, the two temperaments of loneliness and austerity were not contradictory at all in his body and rubbed together.

The box had a huge floor-to-ceiling window, so that the inside could see out while the outside could not see in.

Gabby Yates got up and walked over to the window, looking down on his world like a king, his hands tucked in his pants pockets, his voice deep, “Miss Hill, how long has it been since you’ve had a good night view of the North Side.”

It had been last year since the last time I had peacefully enjoyed the night view of the North Side, but I had forgotten the exact day.

I walked over to her, “President Yates, I am just a worker, running around every day to make ends meet, where can I have the leisure like President Yates to enjoy the night view.”

Gabby Yates’s thin lips lifted lightly and gave me a sidelong glance, “It seems I’m the one imposing, Miss Hill doesn’t seem to be willing to come to the appointment.”

“No.” I denied against my will.

Gabby Yates didn’t poke holes in my lie either, he said frankly, “I just felt a connection with Miss Hill and wanted to make friends with her, nothing else.”

I had never thought of making friends with someone who looked so much like Walker Richter, and I couldn’t help but sink into the depths of his eyes.

Walker Richter had such nice eyes too.

I said politely, “It would be an honor to make friends with President Yates.”

Gabby Yates smiled and called the waiter to order.

He handed me the menu, “I don’t know what Miss Hill likes to eat, you order.”

“I’m good with all of it.” I pushed the menu back.

Gabby Yates didn’t push around with me anymore and ordered a couple of the restaurant’s signature dishes.

During the wait for the food, I took out the prepared contract: “President Yates, the conditions given by our company have all been described to you in detail before, you see if there are no problems …”

“Miss Hill, we’re not talking about work today.” Gabby Yates interrupted me, “What I’m interested in is not how much profit your company can bring me, what I’m interested in is Miss Hill’s story.”

Sure enough, I was drunk.

I took a deep breath and closed the file, “What does President Yates want to hear?”

“Whatever you have to say, I like to hear.”

“Is this how President Yates talks to people about business on a regular basis?” My tone cooled a few notches.

Gabby Yates smiled and shook her head, leaning back in her chair with an air of calmness, “Miss Hill is an exception to the rule, I don’t know why, but looking at Miss Hill makes me feel very close to her, maybe that’s abrupt, but it’s from the bottom of my heart, I want to get to know Miss Hill better, I want to find out the real you. ”

I was the one who invoked it first, and now that Gabby Yates was interested, where was my excuse for accusing him of plotting against me, and the fact that he looked so frank made me look like a villain.

After Walker Richter’s death, I hid many, many words in my heart, and also hid a lot of negative emotions, habitual collapse, habitual self-healing, over and over again, sadness can only be hidden under the false smile, what is real, even I am almost forgetting myself.

I pursed the corners of my lips, all the things of the past floated to the forefront of my mind, my throat was a little tight.

The food was brought up, Gabby Yates ordered wine, I did not want to drink, but ghostly took the wine he poured, perhaps, this is what I need.

When you swallow a glass of wine, you can swallow anything bitter and astringent at the same time.

Later, I unknowingly drank a lot, drunk, head is sober, but can not control their own behavior, self-control and stoicism has also dropped dramatically, before never say out of the hurt, but in front of Gabby Yates said everything.

I slumped over the table, my face filled with tears at some point, I looked at Gabby Yates and narrowed my eyes, “You really do look like him, but he’s never coming back, I missed the best of him.”

“Who was he?” Gabby Yates asked me, “Do you love him?”

“He’s the one I’ve always loved, I was the one who misunderstood him, it would be so nice to do it all over again, it would be so nice.” Tears dripped onto the table and I hastily wiped them away, reaching for the wine in front of me and taking a drink.

Gabby Yates didn’t stop me as he walked over to me and hugged me gently, “Maybe it’s not too late.”

“What do you mean?”

Unguarded by the alcohol, I leaned boldly into his arms and murmured, “I miss him so, so much.”

My head was getting heavy, the red wine had a strong aftertaste, and I leaned weakly against him, babbling.

I could feel him caressing my hair, like Walker Richter once did.

“So did he.”

I was too drunk to even think about what Gabby Yates meant by that, and then I was really drunk off my ass.

The hangover made my head hurt.

I woke up in my own bed.

This left me feeling incredibly terrified and unable to remember how I got back.

Just then Gabby Yates came in with a glass of honey water, “Wake up, it’s just been mixed, it’ll make you feel better.”

Not to mention the shock of seeing Gabby Yates in my house.

I immediately tugged the covers over myself and looked defensive, “Why are you, you why are you in my house?”

Gabby Yates smiled lowly, “Naturally you brought me back, what, forgot?”

“I brought you back?”

Am I that drunk? Bringing a stranger back?

Gabby Yates shrugged and looked at me condescendingly, “You opened the door yourself, too, and I was going to leave, and you pulled me back and wouldn’t let me go, and said you needed me, and then …”

“And then what?”Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

My heart was in my throat, did Gabby Yates and I do something we shouldn’t have done last night?

“And then …” Gabby Yates trailed off on purpose, “And then you fell asleep.”

“No?”

Gabby Yates spread her hands, a wicked grin playing at the corners of her mouth, “You were hoping I’d do something to you?”

I blushed at his flirtation and quickly said, “No, I didn’t mean that.”

As soon as my words fell, Martin Mo’s voice sounded from outside the room, “Alva? hasn’t woken up yet, I’ve brought you your favorite buns from Rongji’s place, you’d better hurry …”

Martin Mo pushed the door in and collided with Gabby Yates.

The air suddenly became quiet.

I had a hateful urge to bang my heart against the wall, it’s hard to explain the fact that Martin Mo found out that I have an extra man in my house early in the morning.
