###Chapter 33 Shameless Self-Criticism
At this point, he suddenly stopped. I couldn't help my curiosity. I looked up at him and said, "What happened next?" Because I cried just now, my voice was very hoarse.
When I asked him on my own initiative, he raised the corner of his mouth slightly, showed a smile, and dropped a kiss on my forehead.
He continued, "Later, my grandfather and I fled all the way back to the country, so we were very embarrassed. On the way, we met a pair of brothers and sisters who went abroad from Kyoto to do business. Grandpa and I lost almost all our finances and documents on the way to escape, so we had to borrow money from the brother and sister to return home, but I didn't expect that the fugitives would follow us, and later involved the brother and sister."
Speaking of which, I probably guessed something.
Looking at him, he said, "is it Nicole and her brother?"
He nodded. "Alex hurt his heart at that time. I took him back to China to recuperate for some days, which could have been cured. Later, something happened, and after he left, he would gladly entrust me to take care of him."
"That brother and sister saved you. Why didn't Grandpa agree with you and Nicole?" In theory, Grandpa can allow me to marry Jordan, but why not agreeing with Nicole? After all, she showed up early, and the brother and sister saved them?
Seeing me looking at him with big round eyes, he suddenly laughed and said, "Don't you feel bad?"
This is the first time he smiled at me, gentle and clean, no cold and violence involved, only joy.
I was stunned, and for a moment I was a little embarrassed. I broke free from his arms and said, "You haven't answered me yet!"
"It doesn't matter. It's getting late. We should go to rest!" As he spoke, he pulled me into his arms again and pressed my hand on his stride, his voice hoarse and low. "Ivelle, if you light a fire, you must put it out!"
I opened my eyes wide and looked at him in disbelief. My face turned red. This man.
"I haven't recovered yet!" I opened my mouth, and my voice turned into a whisper.
He's breathing a little heavily.
I.
That night, I was shameless to myself.
After tossing about all night, it didn't end until the middle of the night. He held me in his arms and cleaned me up before he hugged me into a deep sleep.
Early in the morning, the sun sprinkled into the room through the gap in the floor-to-ceiling window, and the mottled light fell to the ground, like a little candlelight.
I went to bed too late last night and Jordan's company left early. It took me a long time to get out of bed and looked at the messy bedroom with the faint smell of last night.
The scenes of last night unconsciously emerged in my mind, which was kind of embarrassing.
I never knew that Jordan had such a side!
Today, I was going to the office. By the time I finished packing myself, it was almost 10:00. I didn't come and had breakfast, so I drove directly to the office.
When I parked my car in the garage, I happened to meet Kian when I got on the elevator. He and his secretary are both holding a stack of papers in their hands. He disdained to sneer at me when he saw me.
Sarcastically, "Director Astley began to put on airs as president before he took the position of CEO. Is this Astley going to be changed to Mrs. Astley?"
Astley originally started as a real estate company, but it has also begun to sweep other markets in recent years. Kian Hastings originally ran his own company, but because Astley's listing needed the support of capital flow, Hastings and Astley merged.
Kian is a shareholder and manages the company. Although he is also a shareholder, he does not have many shares, and these shares are left by Grandpa Astley. Although in my name, my right to use is basically in the hands of Jordan Astley.
I didn't sit in the position of director at the beginning. I climbed up in the past two years. Of course, from the point of view of outsiders, it was not difficult for me to climb as Mrs. Astley.
In Kian's cautious view, I only rely on Jordan to get the position of director, and he doesn't like me very much.
Glancing at the copywriter in his hand, it is his electronic technology record, and it seems that a new product will be put on the market soon.
"Mr. Hastings is serious. Astley will always be Astley. One of the little directors just asked for leave for two days when he was not feeling well. Ivelle is really grateful that he can always worry about Kian so much. But I think Kian is very busy with his work, so it's better to take care of his own affairs. If you have more things in mind, you will inevitably make mistakes."
It was just the three of us in the elevator, and I didn't want to give way to him, but after all, his secretary was still there, so I quarreled with him, and I lost face.
When the elevator opened, what he had intended to say was blocked on his lips. He just gave me a cold look and went out.
I went directly to my own office, and before I sat down, Kyle came in, looked at me, and said, "Mrs. Astley, Mr. Astley asked you to go to his office."
My ass is not even hot, how did Jordan know that I arrived at the office already?
Suppressing my doubts, I nodded and said, "OK, I'll be up in a minute."
In Jordan's office.
There is no one in the large office area, empty and quiet, and only Jordan can stay in this environment.
After scanning around, I saw what Kyle was doing in front of the computer in the secretary's office. I went up and knocked on the door.
Hearing the noise, he looked up and came over. When he saw that it was me, he was stunned and said, "Ms. Mrs. Astley, the president is in Mr. Hasting's office. I'll be here in a minute."
I nodded. "keep busy!"
Then I went into Jordan's office, found a book on the bookshelf, sat in the rest area, and watched. After Dean Connor's project was completed, a lot of things happened, so the company did not continue to arrange any projects for me.
Jordan called me up this time, mostly to arrange the work for the next period.
But thinking about my plans for this period, I began to struggle again. If Jordan was as indifferent to me as ever, and yet his attitude had changed so much recently, I began to hesitate.
What would it mean for me and my children to leave at this time?
"When Alex left, you promised him that you would take good care of Nicole. Now you are so kind to Nicole. Have you ever considered Nicole? Besides, Ivelle, that woman is not suitable for you at all? " The voice was so anxious that it could be recognized as Kian's cautious voice.
I'm not eavesdropping, but they just walked in and talked so loudly that I couldn't help it even if I didn't want to hear it.
Jordan and Kian entered the office. When they saw me, Jordan raised his eyebrows? "When did you come here?"
"Just now!" I lied. After answering his words, I glanced sideways at Joe, and it didn't matter to see his face.
"There are two companies under Samson's Electronics that have new products on the market this month. Go and follow them and keep an eye on Samson's Electronics trend." Jordan said this to me, and he handed me the document on his desk and continued, "Also, the annual audit of the company is coming, and the original cooperation period with AC has come. You go and have a look with the financial staff. If it is necessary to continue to cooperate, please do so. But if you do not want to cooperate, you go directly to the credit audit to talk to their boss, Parker Wesley."
