Chapter 86 Wait and See
After finishing lunch, Abella returned to the company.
Just as she reached the 20th floor, she could hear Joseph's voice from the end of the corridor.
Joseph was blocking several male employees outside the office, not letting them in.
One of the men in a white shirt pleaded, "Joseph, I truly like Miss Medici..."
"I'm asking you. Do you have a house and a car in New York?"
The man in the white shirt shook his head.
"How much savings do you have?"
"Th...three thousand..."
"You dare to dream about Miss Medici with only three thousand?" Joseph was furious.
"Joseph, I genuinely like Miss Medici. I will work hard to earn money..."
"What is being genuine worth nowadays? I advise you to go home and lie down, close your eyes and daydream. Can you marry with only three thousand? These days, even going on a small trip with a girlfriend costs more than three thousand! Get out!"
Another male employee hurriedly stepped forward, smilingly said, "Joseph, I have a 60 square meters two-bedroom apartment in the city center, a car worth 150,000, and my monthly salary has increased to eight thousand...Could you please help me deliver this love letter to Miss Medici's desk..."
Joseph looked at the slightly bold man in front of him.
Suppressing the urge to scold, Joseph patiently communicated with him.
"Bro it's not that I'm judging you, but you're already 32 years old… It's best if you don't come and join in the fun! Our Miss Medici is only 18 years old, like a blooming flower. Could you please stay away?"
Another effeminate man handed over a lunchbox, "Joseph, this is the lunch I made for Miss Medici when I went home for lunch. Could you please help me give it to her? When Miss Medici eats it, she will definitely feel happy!"
"Do you also like Miss Medici?"
The man nodded firmly, "Yes!"
"You can't handle Miss Medici. Miss Medici doesn't like a family man like you."
Joseph examined his appearance. Standing next to Miss Medici, who had a rather feminine appearance, was quite strange.
"I…I can change for Miss Medici! If Miss Medici likes a stylish man, I will work hard on my fitness! If Miss Medici likes a career-oriented man, I will work hard on my career! Whatever Miss Medici likes, I will try my best to become the person she likes!"
Joseph patted his shoulder, "Brother, let me give you some advice. You are still tens of thousands of miles away from being a suitable candidate. Go home and get some rest."
"Joseph, do you think I have a chance?" At this moment, a handsome young man with a slightly naive appearance approached.
He seemed innocent and cheerful. Joseph remembered that he graduated from a prestigious foreign university, was young, highly educated, and came from a good family. He even had a villa under his name.
Unfortunately...
"Miss Medici is not interested in puppies."
"Why?" The young man looked puzzled.
"Joseph, give us another chance, will you? Help us deliver the gift to Miss Medici..."
Joseph looked at his watch, "Miss Medici is a very punctual person. She should be downstairs at this time. If you don't leave soon, be careful that she unravels each of your past slacking off!"
Upon hearing this, everyone scattered, afraid of having their past fishy behaviors uncovered by Miss Medici.
They took the staff elevator, different from the exclusive elevator Abella took, so they didn't encounter each other.
Miss Medici walked to her office in high heels, casually passing by Joseph. She raised her eyebrows, "Busy, aren't we?"
"Miss Medici, you finally arrived..."
Joseph's mouth became dry from his words. He picked up his cup and took several sips of water before continuing, "They are all a group of incapable people, compared to Mr. Bourbon, it's simply..."
Abella's gaze warned him when the topic of Phillipe was brought up.
Joseph dared not say anything more, wiped the remaining water from his lips and said, "What I mean is, they are not worthy of you!"
Abella entered the office.
Office, the tone is leisurely and comfortable, "I suddenly feel that being an assistant is not suitable for you."
Joseph listened, "Miss Medici, are you going to promote me and give me a raise? Although I just helped you ward off a lot of bad luck, you don't have to be so moved... it's what I should do."
"You should go work at a marriage introduction agency as a matchmaker." Abella opened a file and looked at it, "You have potential for that, don't waste it."
A matchmaker?
Several question marks popped up in Joseph's mind. He definitely didn't want to be some kind of messy matchmaker!
"Or become a security guard, guarding houses and families, that works too."
"Miss Medici, I'm doing all this for your own good!" Joseph approached her with a bit of grievance, "You have no idea how hard I tried to stop them, my mouth went dry from all the talking! It was so difficult for me..."
Before he could finish speaking, he heard a knock on the door. He turned around and saw Benjamin coming in!
Joseph's eyes widened. Wasn't this man called in by the police for questioning this morning? How did he get released so quickly?!
Faster than he imagined...
Abella raised her gaze and locked eyes with Benjamin. In the midst of the intension, Joseph wished he wasn’t here...
"The tea at the police station is really disgusting." Benjamin smiled, pulling out a chair across from Abella and sitting down, with a malicious smile, "hard to compared to the tea at the company..."
Abella curved her lips, "The tea that costs 2000 from the employees to reward you, it must be better."
Benjamin was a bit surprised. How did she know that employees bought tea for him, and the price happened to be 2000 per catty!
"Benjamin should adapt in advance, in case you accidentally end up going back in again..."
"Hahaha..." Benjamin laughed recklessly, "When we go back in, who goes back in, who knows? Miss Medici, I don't know if you've heard the saying that fortune takes turn!"
Joseph listened and realized that this cunning fox might be plotting to get Miss Medici into trouble?!
He definitely didn't expect that Miss Medici had a powerful figure backing her. If he knew about that backing...
Even if he had the courage, he wouldn't dare speak like this in front of Miss Medici!
"I've only heard that there is no definite win or loss, clear retribution for good and evil, good deeds result in long life, and evil deeds result in early death."
Upon hearing this, Benjamin's face turned angry. His sharp eyes clashed with Abella's, sparks flying. Abella curved her lips and calmly spoke.
"Benjamin, be careful when you go out. After all, good and evil will be repaid. It's not that there won't be repayment, it's just not the right time. But when the time comes, everything will be repaid."
Benjamin didn't expect Abella to dare to curse him like this. He sneered, "Then let's wait and see. I came here today just to tell you that the outcome is still uncertain. Let's see."
Seeing his arrogant figure leaving, Joseph couldn't help but get angry. "Who does he think he is? If it weren't for lack of evidence, he has already gone into jail! How dare he shout in front of you."
"He won't be proud for long." Abella didn't take him seriously, lowered her eyes, and continued to read the documents in front of her.
"Miss Medici, there's something I don't understand... You have such a powerful backer, why don't you use Mr. Bourbon to deal with Benjamin?"
In theory, Phillipe is extremely influential, and dealing with someone like Benjamin is not a problem!
