Chapter 180: Where Are You Going Now?

“Who doesn’t have any problems at all? Everyone would have problems at any point in time, or are you
saying they should just consume alcohol every time they have some problems? The sellers of beer and
wine would be beyond happy if they hear this. They would have made a massive fortune.”

Elaine positions the beer glass on the table as she holds Emmett’s arms and pulls him from the wine
cabinet and heads towards where the boss is sitting. She nags along the way, “Come, you should
faster reprise your role as the president here. Let me take a sniff at you… Oh, you are starting to reek
of alcohol! It’s going to give others a bad impression if you smell like a drunkard so early in the
morning. Wait a minute; let me get you a glass of water to rinse your mouth…”

Emmett just watches Elaine’s busy figure moving around and a strange warm sensation is permeating
through him.

Elaine makes sure Emmett is following her advice as he rinses his mouth, spraying the inner of his
mouth with some breath freshener and then taking a sip of tea.

“Let me call those members of top brass one by one into the office…”

Just as Elaine has just turned around, Emmett suddenly grabs her wrist and pulls her into his embrace.

“Hey, what are you doing?”

“I don’t have enough energy left…” Emmett blows at Elaine’s tiny nose with an ambiguous smile on his
face.

Elaine is slightly stunned by him.

Bullshit! How can he lack energy, for someone so ridiculously energetic like him?



He can go at it all night long for several consecutive hours and he won’t even bat any eyelid or
complain that he’s tired.

His stamina lasts very long… it is as if he’s as potent as a robot.

How can he have the nerve to claim that he doesn’t have any energy left?

He’s just bluffing.

“Hey, please hold your act together. Don’t fret. There is a large group of people out there whom you still
have to meet, Mr. Smith.”

Elaine wants to flee, but she is trapped without any space to manoeuvre in Emmett’s embrace. He is
starting to play his tricks now, “Kiss me here. As long as you can plant a kiss here, I feel like my energy
will return to its full amount.”

Emmett pouts his lips as he says that.

Boom… Elaine’s face is flushed right now as she glares hard at Emmett, “You are really too much…
didn’t we only kiss just now? I won’t entertain you anymore! You moron!”

Elaine slips out of Emmett’s grip and escapes him with a nervous heart.

Emmett watches Elaine acting like that and he simply lets out a faint laugh in response.

Elaine, oh Elaine, my dear little girl. Who can tell me how should I treat you?

Emmett proceeds to work on his job, but from time to time, he would steal glances at Elaine who’s
visible outside the door when he can get a tiny break from his busy work.

He would feel his heart tightened and then a warm current would spread through him.



“Ms. Jones, come in for a minute.”

The speaker transmits Emmett’s formal tone which he only uses at work throughout the office, and in
response Elaine hastily clicks off a gaming website while hurriedly dashes into Emmett’s office.

A few representatives from the sales department are sitting on the sofa inside. Elaine stands by the
door as she asks timidly, “Mr. Smith, are you looking for me?”

“Yes, help me order takeaways for lunch for all the secretaries. Everyone has to work overtime today.”

His cool and calculated gaze falls upon Elaine, and she shrinks slightly when she meets his gaze.

Emmett’s lips form a subconscious smile at that moment.

“Alright, I got it.”

Elaine nods lightly before exiting his office.

Order takeaways… it seems that the company is very busy today. The employees can’t even go out to
have lunch by themselves.

“Hey everyone. Mr. Smith announced that we are going to have takeaways for lunch today. What do
you guys want to eat?”

Elaine stands in the middle of the secretary room as she announces loudly.

The other secretaries jump up in unison, “Oh, so we are eating takeaways today.”

“That’s right. We have too many tasks to attend to so that we can catch up with the progress.”

“I want to eat the Cantonese fast food next door.”



“I like Sichuan fast food!”

“The fast food restaurant in the Eastern District is not bad too.”

The secretaries all break into a discussion.

Elaine takes down their orders meticulously by making sure the food and the numbers are correct.

After all, she has a lot of time to kill anyway. Therefore, it is not a chore for her to order takeaways, but
rather, she is happy to oblige.

She calls several restaurants which provide takeaway services and completes her task. At the same
time, her new phone rings.

“Oh, the ringtone of this new phone is really pleasing to the ears. I can’t get used to it yet.”

Elaine mutters while answering the call.

“Hello, may I know who are you?”

“I…”

There is a silky smooth voice sounding at the other end of the phone.

It was a sweet, light and bubbly voice.

Uh…

“Master Young!”

Elaine immediately suppresses the volume of her voice as she turns around and scans her
surroundings. She is really afraid that Emmett would suddenly appear out of nowhere and catch her



red-handed.

She is really disappointed at herself for being under Emmett’s total control. This dynamic of their
relationship even makes her think that it is a sin to talk to Oliver.

“Hey, it’s you. Master Young, how is your arm?”

Elaine covers the receiver of her phone while heading towards the ventilation area. There is nobody on
the roof, and she doesn’t need to be aware of Emmett’s sudden intrusion.

“Hey Elaine, consider me begging you for this once, please? Stop calling me as Master Young.”

“Then how should I address you?”

“Just call me Oli.”

“Uh… I don’t think that’s a great idea…”

Oli… this nickname is really a cringe name. It would induce goose bumps on her.

“Alright then, you should call me like how Lucas and the lot call me. Just call me Oliver. This will do it,
right?”

Elaine scratches her head, sounding hesitant, “About this…”

“I beg you, please. I am begging you…” Oliver is imploring earnestly at the other end of the phone.

“Al… Alright then, Oli.”

Elaine is feeling pretty helpless at the moment. She is really afraid that if Oliver continues to pester her
with that, she would be annoyed to no end.



“Haha, your voice is so nice to my ears. Elaine, why does it sound so different coming from you? You
sound completely different compared to others who call me by that. It’s music to my ears.”

Elaine cracks into laughter after listening to his childish words, “Is that so? I think you are crazy. How
different can it be? It’s just a name.”

“The way you say my name… I feel a shiver running through me.”

Oliver’s tone suddenly changes to one of sweetness.

“Elaine… I want to see you… can we do that?”

Oliver asks with a mellow tone. It makes him sound pitiful.

While listening to Oliver’s sound, she can picture Oliver’s begging face in front of her.

Alas, she could never harden herself whenever she is faced with such people.

“But I am not really free today. I even have to order takeaway for lunch at work…”

The wind is howling furiously around the roof, and Elaine’s strands of hair begin to dance around
because of that. Her skirt is also uplifted too.

Oliver pauses for one moment before asking suspiciously, “Elaine, is it true that… you have been
working at Emmett’s company…”

“Yes, that’s right. I have been here since the end of my finals. I wanted to earn money for my further
studies…”

What she never expects is that there would be so many things which would transpire between the two
of them. They even ended up getting into bed together.



“Then, Elaine, if I double your salary there, would you come to work at my company?”

“Huh?” Elaine chuckles, “Oliver, there is no meaning to my work here at this company. Once my
summer break is over, I will need to return to school. This is just something temporary and my days
here are numbered as well. Do you think it would do me any good to jump ship now?”

What’s more, it’s not like she is a moron. She knows that there is an ulterior motive in his invitation to
recruit her to his company. He’s obviously not hiring her for her talents.

Oliver is leaning against a wall at the moment as he lets out a sigh.

“Elaine, I need to go to the hospital at noon to tend to my injuries. Can you accompany me there?”

Elaine knits her eyebrows.

Oliver has indeed injured his arm because of her. In a sense, she should visit him since he was her
saviour.

“I would love to accompany you there! I’m serious! Your arm is injured badly because of me…”

“Then shall I go fetch you at your company at noon?”

“Can you still drive in that state?”

“Haha, I have a driver anyway.”

Elaine contemplates slightly before coming to a decision, “Alright! I’ll accompany you there.”

“Hurray!” At the other end of the phone, Oliver’s celebratory shout blares through the speaker.



After hanging up the phone, Elaine supports her chin with her palm and she immediately sinks into a
dilemma.

“Can I really sneak out at noon? Everyone else is having takeaways in the company. Is it right for me to
go off on my own?”

Besides… Besides, Emmett has told her this morning that she needs to help him cool down his flame
of desires at noon.

Damn it… Elaine angrily stomps her feet hard.

“Elaine Jones! Are you really a perverted woman now? You are even having expectations towards
helping him cool down his inner desires at noon! How can you be so shameless?”

Elaine reprimands herself while going back to her desk.

In the blink of an eye, the delivery companies depart to deliver the food at eleven thirty.

The food arrives at the office and the aroma of food fills every bit of the space.

Elaine eyes Emmett’s office carefully before pulling Sophia to her side and whispers by her ears,
“Sophia, I have something to do at noon, so I won’t be eating in the office today. Can you help me bring
Emmett’s takeaway to him later?”

“Oh? You’re not going to eat here? Where are you going?”

Sophia examines this adorable and bubby little girl from her head to her toes.

She feels that Elaine is really a looker. At first, she holds the view that Elaine is like a country bumpkin,
but now she feels that Elaine is superbly beautiful.



“Uh, I have some matters to attend to. Just a small matter. Heh heh, Sophia, I hope you can lend me a
helping hand this time.”

“Did Mr. Smith know that you’re going out?”

Elaine freezes slightly upon hearing that.

Did Bad-bear Smith know about this? If he knows that she is going to accompany Oliver to the hospital
to get a change of medicine, he would probably erupt in fury.

Elaine shrinks back her head while putting on a wry smile, “Of course he knows about this. I just have a
little emergency at the moment. People sometimes have emergency, right? Just help me this time,
Sophia!”

Sophia finally nods approvingly, “It’s fine if Mr. Smith knows about this. You are someone out of the
ordinary so I wouldn’t want to promise you anything simply.”

Elaine tiptoes to the outside of the office like a thief after that.

After entering the elevator, she still has a guilty feeling gripping her heart as she pats her chest
furiously as if she is facing a detrimental danger.

Ding dong!

The elevator stops on the first floor.

Elaine lowers her head while she is walking towards the exit. All of a sudden, a voice rings out in her
direction.

“Elaine, where are you going now?”
