Chapter 68 You Don't Stop Me, You Even Send Me Away
At this moment, Pearl felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Her face turned pale, and her body stiffened, unable to move.
She wanted to escape from this place, but her feet were as if they were nailed down, and her eyes couldn't move away from them.
Pearl didn't expect that after she came out of the restroom, they had already developed to the point of being able to kiss.
However, in the next second, Oscar pulled Kelly's hand away.
Coincidentally, his gaze met Pearl's. He paused. Their eyes met in the air, filled with doubt and sadness.
Oscar didn't have time to explain anything and could only distance himself from Kelly, coldly saying, "Ms. Edwards, please mind your behavior."
Kelly followed from behind.
She wanted to make intimate moves toward him when Oscar was alone.
Kelly believed that no man could reject a beautiful woman. After all, no one had ever rejected her before.
As long as she took the initiative, she could make Oscar like her.
Even if it was just a one-night fling between them, she would consider herself a winner.
Kelly didn't expect him to pull away from her.
But perhaps this was just a way for Oscar to play with emotions. Kelly didn't think much of it.
Instead, she smiled from the corner of her mouth, tossed her hair, and said, "President Oscar, you already promised me. Now that I'm taking the initiative, don't you like it? Or do you prefer other methods?"
She thought, 'No one can reject me.'
Oscar's face turned extremely cold, and his deep eyes carried a hint of disgust as he said, "Ms. Edwards, you degrade yourself, and I have no objection. But not every woman is someone I would touch."
His words made Kelly feel slightly embarrassed. "President Oscar, I'm not that kind of person, I admire you."
"Ms. Edwards, you're being too casual!" Oscar said directly, not giving her any dignity.
Kelly continued, "I grew up in a foreign country, so when I meet someone I like, I tend to be more bold. I hope I didn't scare you, President Oscar. If you don't like this, I can be more subtle. You can tell me what kind of woman you like, and I will follow that style in the future."
Oscar had no interest in engaging with her and said coldly once again, "I don't like you. Ms. Edwards, don't waste your efforts!"
He didn't give Kelly a chance.
He didn't like being pursued by women, especially not Kelly.
Oscar was only testing Pearl's reaction just now. She was his wife, so he hoped Pearl would become even slightly jealous, even if just a little. But she came out directly.
This meant that she felt nothing.
He looked at Pearl, who was standing at the door, and thought she might actually think something happened between him and Kelly.
Oscar pushed Kelly aside directly, not wanting her to block his way.
At this moment, Kelly couldn't accept Oscar's indifference. She confidently believed that her bold enthusiasm would make him like her.
After all, no man could resist a woman like her.
But Oscar was different from others.
He humiliated her.
When she turned around, she saw Pearl standing behind her. Seeing that Pearl witnessed this, Kelly suddenly felt a bit embarrassed.
"How long are you going to stand there?" Oscar looked at her and spoke.
Pearl bit her lip. Although nothing happened between them, her heart still felt a slight twinge. She calmed herself down, not wanting her emotions to be too obvious. Pearl lowered her head and said, "Sorry, I'll go to the restroom. I didn't mean to interrupt you."
Oscar's face was cold as he said, "Pearl, are you sure you want to talk to me like this?"
He didn't like her indifferent attitude.
Besides work, she didn't care about him at all.
Pearl's heart felt like a needle pricked it. But even so, she knew that their marriage was a manipulation. Oscar had no feelings for her.
Their relationship could not progress any further.
Pearl gathered all her emotions, smiled, and looked at Kelly behind her. She said, "President Oscar, as your secretary, I won't look at things I shouldn't see, and I won't listen to things I shouldn't hear. Everything that happens here, I will keep it confidential and won't speak of it."
Kelly instantly understood something and walked over, saying, "President Oscar, is it because someone is here that you have concerns? If so, this person must be your secretary and won't say anything inappropriate. I know that you have had no scandals over the years, nor has he had a public girlfriend. I don't need you to publicly acknowledge our relationship. We can secretly date, how about that?"
She had a fondness for Oscar.
Kelly only wanted to get close to him, to conquer him.
If he had an interest in her, she could be his secret lover.
Oscar couldn't refuse her anymore.
Pearl's distance and indifference had already annoyed Oscar, and now Kelly came to him and said these absurd things, making him feel even more restless. His indifferent gaze shifted from Pearl to Kelly.
Kelly was originally smiling, but when she saw Oscar's cold eyes, her smile froze. She could only feel a chill.
"Ms. Edwards, I think I made it clear. I have no interest in you, and you don't want your father to know what you've become. You will have no dignity left."
Kelly was too confident, thinking that by taking the initiative, she could control Oscar.
But he was different from other men, he had no interest in her at all, and he didn't even give her any dignity.
This injured her pride.
After speaking, Oscar didn't want to pay any attention to Kelly anymore. Instead, he grabbed Pearl's hand and walked forward quickly.
He held her hand tightly, as if he wanted to break her bones, venting his anger and dissatisfaction.
Pearl also felt pain in her wrist, but she endured it and hurriedly followed his pace.
Kelly was both angry and annoyed. She watched their backs as they walked away, her eyes turning red, and then angrily stomped her foot.
She thought, 'Why doesn't he like me?'
He cared more about a secretary than her.
She couldn't understand or accept this.
Pearl was directly pulled out by him and felt the anger radiating from him.
Before she could react, he forcefully pushed her toward the Rolls-Royce car.
She instinctively arched her body, protecting her stomach.
Oscar forcefully supported the car, trapping her between the car and himself. If he hadn't restrained himself, his eyes would have been spitting fire.
Pearl's wrist turned red. She glanced up at his displeased eyes.
"President Oscar, have I made you unhappy?"
"Pearl, I am being bothered by other women, and you don't stop them. Is this how you act as a secretary?" Oscar asked in a gloomy tone.
Pearl fell silent.
Such things had happened before.
With his status, there would surely be some women who would come after him.
In the past, there were many models and celebrities who wanted to climb into his bed.
Pearl did indeed, as Oscar said, block those people from harassing him.
But today it was Kelly. Her identity was different, and Pearl saw them chatting so familiarly, so she said, "You seem to be having a good time, so I thought you liked someone like her. I don't want to ruin the atmosphere."
"You're considering things quite thoroughly!" Oscar said coldly, but he couldn't do anything to her.
Pearl realized that she had done something wrong because she didn't recognize her responsibilities as a secretary like she used to.
It was her selfishness that led her to do this.
