Chapter 116 Choose to Cooperate with Me
This kind of thing? What kind of thing?
Adele blushed and her heart was beating fast. She nodded in response, not daring to look directly into Damon’s eyes.
Damon smiled, took a step back, turned around and walked out of the bathroom, turned on the main switch.
Sure enough, the bathroom light lit up with a “pa” sound. Adele looked up and saw herself in the mirror. Her whole face was red like an apple. She quickly turned on the tap and released cold water to wash her face.
As she washed her face, she secretly scolded herself.
Adele, ah, Adele, isn’t his figure just a little better?
After a while, her mood calmed down a little. She then walked out of the bathroom. When she arrived at the small living room, she saw Damon standing next to the sofa, staring at a pile of clothes on the sofa.
Those were clothes that she hadn’t had the time to tidy up yesterday! They were all thin shirts and shorts that she wore in summer, and underwear!
Adele was shocked. She quickly ran forward and picked up her clothes. She hurriedly put them into the storage box next to her. “I… I haven’t had the time to clean up…”
Seeing the woman’s distressed appearance, Damon was much calmer. Her tightly pursed lips moved slightly and she whispered, “When do you plan to go back to work?”
“Ah?”
Adele did not expect that the moment he opened his mouth and asked this question, he did not know how to answer.
Seeing that she was stunned, Damon continued unhurriedly, “Or have you already prepared the penalty of one million?”
Adele was speechless, “I…”
Of course she did not have a million, and she had no choice but to continue working in this class.
Taking a deep breath, she slowly calmed down and said softly, “I can return to the company tomorrow.”
It seemed that he could only face it.
Hearing this, Damon was about to speak, but at this moment, an untimely voice rang out.
“Gulp gulp…” It came from Adele’s stomach.
When she looked up and met the man’s gaze, she immediately felt embarrassed.
From the time she woke up in the morning until now, she had not eaten a single mouthful of food. It was normal for her to be hungry.
She gritted her teeth and braced herself to ask, “Um… Aren’t you going to work today?”
Only when Damon left could she go and prepare breakfast.
“I don’t have anything to do in the company this morning, so I don’t need to go,” Damon said indifferently.
So… from what he said, he didn’t intend to leave?
Adele racked his brains to think of a reason to ask Damon to leave, but he had no intention of leaving at all. Instead, he walked to the small kitchen and opened the refrigerator.
“What… are you looking for?” Adele asked.
Damon took out carrots, vegetables, eggs, and noodles from the refrigerator and said lightly, “I came in a hurry and didn’t eat breakfast. Shouldn’t you care about my meal?”
Food?
She didn’t know how to cook. If she cooked breakfast, she could only fry an egg, roast bread, and let her cook a meal. Wouldn’t that be difficult for her?
Seeing Damon personally wash the vegetables, Adele was stunned for a moment, and then finally reacted, “You want to cook?”
“What else? You know how to cook?” Damon lifted her lips and said lightly.
This sentence made Adele a little embarrassed. She really did not know how to cook.
When she was at home, it was Ms. Henderson who cooked. When it came to Yusuf family, it was also Mary who cooked. She only knew how to make soup.
By the time she reacted, Damon had already prepared most of the ingredients. He opened fire skillfully and prepared the dishes, as if he was the owner of this family.
“You… How do you know where the dishes are?” Adele could not help but sigh.
When Damon heard this, a trace of fluctuation appeared in his eyes. In the blink of an eye, his expression returned to indifference. He did not say anything and continued to move his hands.
Soon, the two bowls of noodles were cooked and filled into the bowls. The color, smell, and taste were all present. Adele tasted it and even the hardness of the noodles was perfectly cooked.
When she was with Yusuf family, she had never seen him cook before, but now she realized that he was so good at cooking.
Looking at the hot noodles in front of her, the room actually added a bit of smoke, and Adele also felt a burst of warmth in her heart.
She looked up at the elegant man who was eating noodles opposite her and could not help but softly say, “Damon, thank you for changing the light bulb and this bowl of noodles for me.”
Damon paused slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but his lips moved and he said in a deep voice, “Don’t talk while eating.”
When Adele heard this, he couldn’t help but want to roll his eyes, but in the end, he still let out an “oh” and lowered his head to eat the noodles.
Soon, the noodles were finished, and the two of them sat face to face. The room was quiet and a little awkward.
Damon put down his chopsticks and suddenly said, “When you go back to the company tomorrow, you might hear some rumors. Don’t mind it too much.”
Adele was stunned for half a second, then understood the meaning of his words.
Since the last time Frank’s wife came to the company to make a scene, everyone believed that she had an ambiguous relationship with Frank. This time, when she went back to work, she would inevitably hear some rumors.
Her heart tightened a little, and Adele’s mood suddenly became a little depressed. She said faintly, “Yes.”
Seeing the woman’s eyes dim a little, Damon asked, “Have you ever thought about where the photo in Madam Xu’s hand came from?”
When this sentence came out, Adele’s face suddenly became a little serious. She had indeed thought about it, but things had already happened, and it seemed meaningless to investigate where the photo came from.
Seeing that she was silent for a long time, Damon took out his mobile phone, pulled out a video, and handed it to her.
Adele reached out to take it, and saw that the mobile phone was playing a surveillance video. A woman hid behind a pillar and secretly took photos.
She took a closer look and saw the woman’s face clearly.
It was Sherry!
It turned out that she had secretly taken photos of her supporting Frank! In other words, the photos that Madam Xu had taken were sent by her!
Adele clenched her fists and felt a burst of anger in her heart. Normally, Sherry would mock her over and over again, but she did not expect that he would use such despicable means behind her back!
She had thought that the mangoincident had taught her enough lessons, but she still refused to give up!Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Adele gritted her teeth and felt stifled in her heart. “She… Why is she not willing to let me go!”
Damon was silent for a moment. He looked at her and asked lightly, “How do you want to deal with it?”
How to deal with it? Even if she chased Sherry out of Yusuf Group, it would be useless for her because her reputation had been damaged. Everyone had already determined that she was the mistress who had destroyed someone else’s family. Was there any way for her to regain her innocence?
A wave of sourness rose in her heart. Adele took a deep breath and looked up at the man opposite her. “Do… do I have a choice now?”
He refused to let her leave the company, and she had to work for Yusuf Group. She had to bear the scolding and rolling eyes.
“You have.” A dark light flashed in Damon’s eyes, and her tone was firm. “You can choose to cooperate with me.”
“Cooperate with you?” Adele was confused.
“This matter is not as simple as you think. My goal is Frank, and right now, only you can help me.” Damon nodded slightly and said in a low voice.
“But… why should I help you?” Adele smiled bitterly.
Why should she help him?
Damon’s eyes were deep and bottomless. He paused and said softly, “Because I am the only one who can prove your innocence.”
