She spends a lot of energy leading a team to create a work.
After they talk, Claire turns around and wants to tell her colleagues the happy news. But the boss stops
her, “Claire, Mr. Juan called me just now. He said he would take you out later, so you can leave work
early today.”
“Oh, me?” Claire points at herself, puzzled. Why does Juan ask her out at work? Juan shouldn’t have
done that.
“He may be here soon. You can prepare it.” The boss nods with a smile. With that, he happily contacts
people from Howard Group.
Claire is confused but she holds back. Forget it. She is happy that her work has been approved by the
boss. Now nothing can stop her good mood.
Claire goes back to the design department and tells everyone that the work is praised by the boss. The
crowd cheer at once.
In order to make this work in a short time, they suffer for many days. They work hard to make it.
Several people in the design department are not satisfied because Claire is the design director. This
time they see Claire’s efforts and her abilities. They are deeply impressed by her.
No one in the design department is unhappy with Claire now. Everyone thinks of Claire as their design
director. She can lead their design department to success!
They are very happy. A few moments later, someone proposes to celebrate in the evening.
As soon as someone mentions it, someone agrees, and someone else says, “have you forgotten Miss
Bennett? Miss Bennett has been in the company for so long, but we don’t welcome her seriously! We
can celebrate tonight!”
“Ah! You’re right. I didn’t think of it!”
“Miss Bennett, you must attend the celebration tonight. You don’t need to spend money. Our treat!”
“Yes...”
After a while, more than ten people discuss. They don’t give Claire a chance to refuse. Claire feels
helpless, but she is happy.
She likes this kind of living and working environment best. Everyone gets along well and works
together and meets occasionally.
But a man suddenly speaks.
“No, Miss Bennett has an appointment today.” A magnetic voice sounds behind Claire. The next
second, a hand rests on Claire’s shoulder.
Claire takes a strange look. She finds Juan at the door of the design department. He is now standing
by her and putting a hand around her shoulder.
“Juan…” Claire can not help shouting in a low voice.
Juan smiles at her. His smile is as sunny as the spring breeze.
Seeing this, people in the design department who are dissatisfied with Juan’s words can’t help
exclaiming. Of course, except for some male colleagues.
Even men can’t help admiring Juan. Women like him very much.
It’s mainly because Juan is handsome and tall. Now he’s standing next to Claire with a charming smile.
He catches the eye of the crowd at once.
Someone can’t help whispering to Claire, “Miss Bennett, is he your boyfriend? He is so handsome...”
“He...” Claire looks at the colleague and is about to explain when Juan interrupts her.
“I’m her boyfriend.” Juan smiles.
Claire is shocked to hear Juan’s words. She can’t help but stare at Juan and blame him in a whisper,
“Juan!”
Juan smiles and shakes his head. He indicates that he will explain to her. Seeing this, Claire has to bite
her teeth and endure.
But people think their eyes are ambiguous and they flirt in public. Claire and Juan look very well
matched. Juan is handsome and Claire is beautiful!
A bold man can’t help saying, “Miss Bennett! Just date your boyfriend! We can celebrate another day.
Dating matters!”
“Yes, we don’t want to disturb you. What if we upset your boyfriend? Go and play!”
“Yes, don’t forget to send us an invitation when you get married...”
They have been commenting. Claire is very angry. Usually they don’t nag. She’s not in that relationship
with Juan at all!
Claire can’t help but stop them. “All right, stop talking. Get back to work!”
“Miss Bennett, you’re shy...”
They thinks Claire is angry because she is shy. Claire is helpless but she can’t say it. Then Juan helps
her, “Okay, I’m going to borrow your design director. See you next time.”
With that, he and Claire turn and leave.
Claire can not help complaining in the car, “how can you say you are my boyfriend in front of my
colleagues? Do you know it embarrasses me? Conan, why are you here?”
Claire sits in the back seat because she is angry. She gets in the car and complains about it. Then she
finds her son sitting in the passenger seat.
Conan hears Claire call him. He looks back at her with a smile and says, “Hey, Mommy, I haven’t seen
you for a long time.”
They met in the morning.
Claire glances at Conan and asks, “Why are you here? What are we going to do?”
“Guess,” Conan laughs.
Claire glances at Juan, who is wearing a seat belt, and says angrily, “Juan, you haven’t explained to
me why you pretended to be my boyfriend. How can I explain to my colleagues...”
Claire is complaining but Juan is calm. He smiles confidently and says, “if I don’t pretend to be your
boyfriend, do you think you can escape today’s celebration? If you go, you will surely be drunk at
night.”
