Chapter 44 The Gleaming Hope Extinguished

"So, how is your decision?" Right when Sheena was standing in the station and picking up the things into her bag for the duty-off, Stephan Korade stepped out of his office in quite a nice suit.

Sheena was inspired by the looks of Stephan Korade.

[He did be blessed by the god that he has owned such excellent appearance.] Sheena sighed in mind.

"Hey, are you listening to me?" Stephan Korade was surprised to see the innocent face of Sheena that she seemed to sink into a world that nobody could touch in. But right this moment, Stephan Korade couldn't let this happen, he must get the answer he wanted.

"Did you make up your mind yet?"

Sheena shook her head with a face of pity, "Sorry, but Sherry Lim has told me that she would accompany you to go there. She is more familiar with such occasions and people there." What's more, taking an experienced employee to such an official location would be more proper than bring a newie of the company.

No matter what, Sheena did agree what Sherry Lim had said.

"No way!" This is a piece of shock news to Stephan Korade. He could bear such boring occasions only if Sheena Hathaway could come with him, not a somebody that has claimed to be familiar and experienced. He didn't care all of these.

Compared with the shock on the face of Stephan Korade, Sheena looked calmer in accepting such news. "I'm your secretary, but it didn't mean I will go wherever you go. What's more, Sherry would be more familiar with the whole company since I've finished all the needed procedures. Rest assured, just go and try."

After saying these, Sheena continued her packing.

"Oh, Mr. Korade, I'm ready, let's set off, it's almost the time." At the perfect moment, Sherry Lim showed up with a sweet smile blossoming on her perfectly make-up face.

Sherry has worn an off-the-shoulder long and black dress, which was sexy enough to demonstrate her snow-white skin and full bosom. The narrow-waist design had showed her soft waistline.

"Wow, you look so amazing." Sheena couldn't help being amazed by her dress-up, which was totally different from what she had dressed in the working hours.

With a winning smile crawling in her mouth, Sherry Lim was satisfied by Sheena Hathaway's reaction. Therefore, Sherry Lim looked at Stephan Korade with more confidence, "Mr. Korade…"

However, before Sherry Lim continued her inquiry, Stephan Korade gave a peek at Sherry Lim and quickly turned to Sheena Hathaway, "No matter what, you must go with me. Either you, or both of you. What's more, even though Sherry is more experienced and familiar with the situations, all the procedures have been carried out by you and I would wonder whether there would be some questions that I would like to ask you personally."

When saying this, Stephan Korade was quite in a serious face that if Sheena didn't understand him so well that she might have believed such excuses.

"Dear Boss, Sheena might be occupied by some private cases, please forgive her and let her go." Sherry Lim, to some extent, was quite a smart girl to seize the chance, more exactly, to create the chances for her and Stephan Korade to stay together.

Sheena didn't know whether she was right or not, Sherry Lim had acted more than a full-time employee. She acted more like a girl chasing after her lover.

Of course, Sheena didn't say anything but watched them two discussing whether Sheena attended the banquet or not.

Sherry Lim was smart that she could use official excuses to persuade Stephan Korade not to bring Sheena Hathaway to the banquet, but she had ignored an obvious situation.

Stephan Korade was obviously not patient enough to hear all her prepared words. Stephan Korade lifted up his palm to stop Sherry's talk, and he just turned to Sheena Hathaway and said, "you heard me, only two choices, you or both of you."

Such an attitude had pissed Sherry Lim off crazily. She was expecting to attend this banquet that she had prepared it in advance, although she asked Sheena to handle the procedures, she didn't expect such a newie could attend such an event.

"Mr. Korade, according to the convention, the invited guest would only take one companion with him." Although Sherry Lim had caught the sight of the expression in the eyes of Stephan Korade, Sherry Lim still wanted to make the last try to stop a nobody blocking in the way of her getting familiar with the new boss, or the future husband.

Stephan Korade was amazed by the rashness. Didn't she ever notice the meaning he had insisted? Stephan Korade looked at Sherry Lim with a surprising eye expression and a little bit pissed off by her bluntness.

Sherry Lim tried to give the sweetest smile and stood there with spine straight, as if that gesture would give her more confidence to confront with such a handsome boss but with poor eyes.

[Are you insane? Didn't you notice I'm insisting in inviting Sheena to the banquet?] Stephan Korade thought in mind and tried to tell Sherry Lim with his serious eyes expression.

The silence lingered around all the three of them and the atmosphere was a little bit weird at this moment.

Stephan Korade was the first one to break such a silence, because he had noticed Sheena Hathaway was packing her stuffs again.

Stephan Korade leaned toward Sherry Lim and threatened in quite a low voice that only Sherry could distinguish what he had told.

"Persuade Sheena to go, or you would not only fail in the attendance of this event but also the job."

Sherry Lim originally was blush for the close distance with Stephan Korade, but when she figured out what Stephan Korade was trying to do, she was like dropping into an icy lake that she couldn't climb out. Sherry Lim seemed to see the gleamy fire of the candle was extinguished by the soft breath coming from this man in a good body shape, attractive but fetal.

"Sheena, you go with us, after all, you know all the needed information in case any accident happens." Sherry Lim was professional after all that she quickly adjusted her status and made the order to Sheena, who could reject but obey finally.
