Chapter 39: You Don’t Have Good Eyes
“Then am I blind?” Xenia Lewis asked with a smile, but her eyes were filled with hostility and killing intent.
Nadia Sawyer had already recovered from her shock and was a little frightened by Xenia Lewis’s gaze. However, after sizing up Xenia Lewis’s clothes, she somewhat figured out what was going on. This was because Xenia Lewis was also wearing ordinary casual clothes, and there was some dust on her clothes.
The company was now bringing in a lot of things. As the furniture and shelves got installed, there was dust everywhere. Naturally, she could not avoid it.
Nadia Sawyer chuckled at this point, and her eyes were once again filled with disdain. “You really don’t have good taste. With your looks, you can find anyone else. At the very least, you can find someone with a good job. Why find a mover to suffer with? Why don’t I introduce you to a job?”
Xenia Lewis did not expect Nadia Sawyer to say such words. She felt that she had gained an additional understanding of such sarcastic people. She said, “There’s no need. I’m quite happy working with William.”
Xenia Lewis turned to look at William Scott and hugged his arm tightly. Then, she turned around with a blissful smile on her face and said, “He’s a mover now, but maybe he’ll become a CEO in a while. He might just become a tycoon tomorrow.”
Nadia Sawyer burst out laughing. “You’re so naive. It would be understandable if you were still in college. But everyone has graduated years ago. They might not be doing so well, but they should at least be able to make a name for themselves. If you’re still in the moving business, you can easily imagine how his future would look.”
Xenia Lewis narrowed her eyes and said, “Then you’re certain that William Scott won’t be successful in the future?”
Nadia Sawyer pursed her lips. “What good can he do? I advise you to give up as soon as possible. There’s really no need to waste time on a man like him.”
Liam Cole saw that Xenia Lewis’s expression was getting even more awful. He quickly pulled Nadia Sawyer and said, “William Scott, we still have something on. We’ll leave first. We’ll talk again when we have time.” With that, he pulled Nadia Sawyer away.
“Why are you so mean?” Liam Cole asked softly.
Nadia Sawyer snorted. “That’s for your own good. This way, he won’t come looking for you again. If a classmate like that wants to contact you, it’ll only be because he wants your help. Cut him off early.”
After saying this, the two of them entered the elevator. Before the elevator door closed, they saw a girl running over quickly. She came to Xenia Lewis and said loudly, “CEO Lin, CEO Lin…”
The elevator doors closed here, and the voices outside could no longer be heard. Liam Cole looked at Nadia Sawyer and said, “Did you hear that? That girl just called William Scott’s girlfriend… CEO Lin?”
“She’s probably calling someone else, right?” Nadia Sawyer didn’t notice and immediately said disdainfully, “CEO Lin? She’s too young.”
“No, no. I saw the girl run up to her. She must have called her.”
“Pfft, don’t you understand? She’s just putting on an act for us to see. CEO Lin? Even if she’s CEO Lin, she must be from a moving company. She just relies on her strength to earn money. Have you seen any CEO who’s covered in dust?”
“That’s true.” Liam Cole thought for a while and agreed.
Nadia Sawyer said with a look of disdain, “Let me tell you, don’t have any contact with William Scott in the future. This kind of person will pester you later. He’ll either want your help or want to borrow money from you. It’s so annoying.”
In the hall outside the elevator, Xenia Lewis stomped her feet and said angrily to William Scott, “William Scott, why is your temper so good? Do we need to save face for such a person?”
William Scott smiled faintly. “We’re classmates after all.”
Xenia Lewis was even angrier. “Do they treat you as a classmate? They’re afraid that you’ll need their help next time. Such snobs.”
William Scott still had a smile on his face. “Forget it. It’s not a big deal, and I didn’t take it seriously. Don’t be angry.”
“Aren’t you being too big-hearted? You’re not even angry at them for treating you like this. Even if you’re not angry, you should have let them know your true strength just now and hit them in their dog eyes.”
William Scott patted her shoulder and said, “Let’s go. There’s really no need to be so serious about these things.”
Xenia Lewis said angrily, “I really take my hats off to you. I’m already so angry, yet you don’t take it to heart at all.”
William Scott smiled and did not explain further. When a person had experienced a lot about life and death, they really did not take many things to heart. In William Scott’s eyes, a person like Nadia Sawyer was extremely lowly. How could he lower himself to the level of a small fry like her?
Seeing that William Scott didn’t mind, Xenia couldn’t take it lying down. She kept thinking that those two people also worked in this building and they would definitely bump into each other again in the future. She would go back and ask what these two people worked as.
Hmph, whatever they worked as, they would not be able to reach William Scott’s level.
When they arrived at his company on the 26th floor, Xenia Lewis and William Scott entered an office room. Xenia Lewis said unhappily, “Hey, I pretended to be your girlfriend just now to give you face. Aren’t you going to say anything?”
William Scott was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said, “If you didn’t mention it… I would have forgotten about it.”
Xenia Lewis pouted and said, “Hey, how could you? Are you so used to me pretending to be your girlfriend that you don’t even have any gratitude left. This definitely can’t be.”
“Okay, okay. I’m very grateful.”
Xenia Lewis nodded repeatedly and said, “Of course. The last time I went to your house, I did it on behalf of Yvette. This time, I did it all for you, so you have to acknowledge my favor.”
“Alright, alright. But do you have to be so clear about it?”
“I have to. Helping Yvette is useless. But if I help you, won’t I be able to get some benefits? Who knows, I might be able get you to save my life in the future.” When Xenia Lewis said that, she gritted her teeth.
“Pfft…” William Scott laughed and said, “You really think I put you in danger huh.”
“What do you think? Since you can save me anyway, you’d probably do that on purpose. But don’t even think about asking me to repay you for saving my life. I even suspect that Simon Jaber owes you a favor because of this.”
“Pfft… Then wouldn’t I be a jinx?” William Scott didn’t know what to say. Xenia Lewis’s imagination was really weird. She was indeed someone who dreamt of being a director.
