Chapter 301 Flirting
In today's fast-paced society, with Luke's manipulation, it only took a few days for the news headlines to be dominated by stories of various entertainment stars.
The most shocking news was about a famous singer being exposed by a female friend with benefits for raping an underage female fan abroad and engaging in group debauchery.
Originally, this matter was suppressed, but later Luke spent a lot of money to bring this news back to the headlines. For two weeks, the internet was flooded with this story.
With this, who could still remember Elsa's issue?
Elsa instinctively knew this had something to do with Luke, but she didn't ask. As the public opinion gradually subsided, she returned to her normal work.
Her debt with Luke was written off. Without the heavy psychological pressure, she didn't have the initial attitude of working herself to death in front of Leo to make money.
She originally wanted to be Leo's assistant not only because of the good benefits but also because Leo was a design genius whom she greatly admired. However, after this incident, she could no longer admire him from the bottom of her heart.
Fortunately, time passed quickly, and she just needed to hold on until next year.
Now, she only did her job, worked regular hours, and avoided any personal contact with Leo during her private time.
Leo, knowing he was in the wrong, behaved himself for a while.
Releasing new fall products in the summer was a tradition in the jewelry industry, and soon it was time for the LEO Gems new product launch.
At the launch event, the media surrounded the venue with cameras, all hoping to get the first-hand information on the new products.
Dressed to the nines, Leo raised his champagne glass to the media along with a group of designers. Elsa, standing beside him, naturally did the same.
The photo and video sessions went on round after round, and the champagne glasses in their hands were replaced several times.
"Leo, here's to a successful launch," a partner said, raising his glass for a toast.
Leo's glass was already empty.
"I'll go get a new one," the partner said.
Leo stopped him with a look, his slender fingers gripping Elsa's hand holding the glass.
Elsa, who lost in thought, was caught off guard.
Leo took the remaining half of the champagne from Elsa's glass in one gulp, then shook his empty glass to signal to the partner.
There was a lipstick mark on the rim of Elsa's glass from earlier, and her face quickly blushed as she realized this.
She glared at Leo, who rarely showed a gentle smile.
Elsa rolled her eyes, thinking he was crazy.
This didn't escape the media's attention. The photo of Leo holding Elsa's hand to drink was subtly included among dozens of pictures from the launch event, making it even more conspicuous.
Someone specifically posted this picture in the news comment section: [I don't believe they're not a couple.]
Someone echoed: [Elsa's face is all red.]
The comments were relatively mild this time. With the male singer's imprisonment still drawing attention, it didn't cause much of a stir.
After the last incident, Elsa didn't follow the news and had no idea what had happened.
It was past 10 PM when she dragged her tired body home. Just as she stepped out of the elevator, she was pulled into Luke's embrace.
