Chapter 90: A Deliberate Confession
When Charles said "You already know too much, so you will never be allowed to back down or pass the buck", in the face of such a blunt threat, everyone has nothing else to say but to choose silence. ο½x.netbsp; After this embarrassing silence lasted for a while, Charles, who felt that he had given everyone enough psychological pressure, finally reopened his mouth, and his tone was still as easy-going and calm as ever. "Oh, of course, you don't have to worry too much, as long as you work hard, there will be no risk, and I said I would take responsibility for it. The President and I are very much looking forward to your good example of achieving the goals we have set. β
After saying this, he looked at everyone else with a smile, "So, who still has objections?" β
"No, sir." Everyone hurriedly replied.
"That's the best, and I hope you can understand the above meaning." Charles waved his hand and made a gesture to end the meeting, "In that case, I look forward to your being able to come up with a satisfactory table later, and dismiss the meeting." β
With this gesture of his, everyone left the conference room one by one with nervous or uneasy feelings, leaving only Mary, who had been taking notes.
Charles still sat at the table, pondering, thinking about what was next.
"Sir, can you take a look at this?"
While he was still immersed in this thought, Miss Marquis, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, and then handed the minutes of the meeting she had just made to Charles.
"Oh?" Charles was awakened and took the text casually.
After casually swiping over the handwriting, he handed it back to his assistant. "Well, it's as good as ever. I'm satisfied. You can take it and save it, thank you for your hard work. β
After saying this compliment. He withdrew his gaze and fell back into deep thought.
However, at this time, he felt as if something was wrong.
He looked up and saw that the Marquis still hadn't left, and her face seemed to be a little strange.
"Mademoiselle de LΓ©oland, is there anything else?" He couldn't help but ask.
"No, no, nothing, sir......" Mary shook her head. But the tone seemed to be a little hesitant, "I just ...... I'm just thinking about what you just said......"
"Oh? Those words are just said in private, you don't have to take them to heart. Charles shrugged, "You just need to do what I tell you to do, and I'll take care of the rest." β
"But...... But......" a hint of hesitation and pain flashed across Mary's pale face, "you just said so terrible...... I was really, really scared. β
"Scared? Afraid of what? Charles looked at each other suspiciously.
Are you afraid that the Charr will harm the interests of the people? She's not such a kind-hearted child, is she? Am I looking at the wrong person?
Just as Charles was deeply worried about his vision for choosing an assistant, Mary's slightly trembling voice rang out again.
"Because. Because didn't you say that? Things are too heavy, so we don't allow any mistakes to be made, otherwise...... Otherwise, there will be strict consequences......"
What, I was just worried about that...... Charles breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
"yes. That's what I said, what's wrong? Since he is in an important position, he has taken on a heavy responsibility. Then you should have the consciousness to do everything well, if you don't have that awareness. Then don't do it. Charles replied a little brutally, "Since I have given them such generous treatment. They should repay me with a qualified form. β
"That's why I'm scared, sir." Mary's eyes were radiant and seemed to be rolling with tears. "Am I included? After all, I know these secrets...... If I inadvertently divulge the secret, you ...... Will you also deal with me mercilessly? β
"Yes, of course." Without hesitation, Charles replied in a low voice, "But, after so much cooperation, I know you're not the kind of person to be rash, Mary, you wouldn't do those stupid things." It is because I believe that you are one of my own that I will let you participate in such an important meeting. β
This unexpectedly simple answer made Mary's heart burn with anger.
Bastard, what a bastard! In vain, I've served you for so long, and I can't even be tactful!
In fact, she was not afraid at all, nor did she have any sense of moral guilt, but had a sense of excitement and accomplishment in her heart, "I am participating in an amazing event". However, that didn't stop her from appearing a little softer in front of Charles.
After receiving such a merciless reply, tears slowly welled up from her eyes under the burning of embarrassment and anger, "Look, you really think so, right? So, inadvertently, I've actually risked my life, can you still not allow me to be scared? β
In this way, in fact, there is nothing wrong with her thinking like this, after all, things are important. Charles thought to himself.
After all, isn't she also a girl, and she may indeed not be able to withstand the unexpected pressure.
"Oh, your concerns, I already understand." Charles nodded, then sighed softly, "That's right, I really shouldn't ask too much of you, there are some things you don't have to participate in, so let's do it, you don't have to take care of the newspaper during this time, just do the work I gave you, and spend more time with Fran......"
"No, don't do that!" Mary blurted out right away.
The answer was too gentle, and it wasn't what she wantedβshe never thought about it, and it was hard for her to accept that she was withdrawing from these great causes.
"Huh?" Charles looked at the other party curiously, as if he didn't understand what the other party meant, "Miss, what do you want to do?" You say you're scared and want to keep going......"
"Yes, I was scared...... Don't worry about me, sir, though, I'll be strong again. Tears still lingered on Mary's face, but her expression had already regained the strictness and firmness of just now, "However, I still want to continue to follow you and continue this work." Because...... Only by your side can I accomplish great things that are difficult for ordinary people to achieve! Because...... Because, I adore you so much, and I'm willing to do something for you! Even if you despise me, I am willing to continue to serve you, please don't leave me, that will be more difficult for me to accept than facing death! β
This unexpected and sudden confession made Charles speechless in surprise for a while.
"Oh...... Oh, that's what you mean...... I understand. Well, well, you can go ahead and do it if you want to. β
"Thank you, sir, please don't turn me off because of my momentary weakness, please!" Mary's tears welled up from her eyes again, and she sobbed uncontrollably, "Although I am still young, although I am not as knowledgeable as yours, and although I am weak in character, but even so, I still want to follow you and contribute to your cause...... My family has abandoned me, what other meaning does my life have now? Serving you, this is the only meaning of my life left, please don't be so cruel, okay? β
Such a mournful request made Charles feel a little compassionate.
Did I turn out to be such a great person? has already given a girl the meaning of survival?
After all, it was a man, and when he heard this, no matter how calm he was, he couldn't help but feel a little fluttery.
"Okay, great, Mary." He nodded rather happily, "It's my pleasure to say that. Please rest assured that as long as you continue to serve me, I will never treat you badly, and I will always be generous to my friends. As long as you don't give up on your own, I will never leave you behind. β
This promise of not knowing exactly how much reliability there was, made Mary look visibly overjoyed.
"Thank you, sir!" Mary's face turned red with excitement, "You saved me again!" I will remember your kindness for the rest of my life. β
Perhaps she was too excited, but suddenly, she lunged at Charles, regardless of it.
Caught off guard, she threw herself into Charles' arms.
"Huh? Feed...... It's ......" Charles was flustered at first, but regained his composure after a moment.
After all, it's a girl.,Although she has some brains.,But sometimes it's weak.,And you should coax.γ
With this thought, he also hugged each other.
While coaxing, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped away tears for the other party.
To be honest, he scared the other party like this with a casual word, and to be honest, he himself regretted it a little.
"Okay, it's okay, don't cry."
In the quiet and unoccupied conference room, two young men and women embraced each other. The man held a handkerchief and warmly wiped away tears for the woman.
This scene is a slightly romantic scene, and even the parties themselves can't help but feel deeply touched.
He looked thin and weak, but he was unexpectedly frequent, as if he was bigger than Matilda and Charlotte......
Charles suddenly flashed a whim.
As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a throbbing in his heart, and a strange smile passed over his face that he didn't even notice.
And what about women?
She buried her head deep in Charles's arms, unable to see her expression and motionless.
However...... Her heart was not unaware.
Hmph, although it's quite powerful, but it's still an ordinary man?
Old thing, I won't let you down. (To be continued!)
