Nomsa immediately hugged his neck. Her mind went blank for a few seconds before she realized what was happening. She struggled to get down from his arms, "Douglas, put me down!"
he held her tightly in his arms and ignored her struggle, put her on the passenger seat. Nomsa wanted to get off the car as soon as she was seated but Douglas knew that she would do it. He supported the door with one hand and put the other on the car. He looked at Nomsa with a faint smile and said, "If you dare to get out of the car, I will kiss you."
Hearing this, Nomsa pursed her lips and said through clenched teeth, "Shameless!"
Douglas closed the door, got in the car from the other side and drove away. Nomsa turned her head to the other side. She did not even want to look at the man beside her. The mere sight of him would annoy her. Douglas did not look at her either. He looked straight ahead and said indifferently, "You haven't answered my question." Nomsa was shocked. Then she remembered his mocking tone. He asked her if she want to scam others. Nomsa turned to glare at him, "I think it's you who want scam, right?" Douglas glanced at her and smiled. He seemed to imply something, "Your husband is the most promising man in the Hoover City. How dare I touch you?"
These words sounded like ridicule, but Douglas seemed to be proud when he said that. Anyway, Nomsa felt that "Douglas" was strange.
She looked at "Douglas" carefully and found nothing out of the ordinary. He was the same as usual.
However, if "Douglas" saw her interview so quickly, did Leonardo see it? With thus thought, Nomsa felt a little uneasy. The Emerson's attitude was obvious from the beginning. After removing a few trending topics related to Leonardo, they did not make a move. In other words, as long as Leonardo was not involved, they would not care about the grudges between Nomsa and her family. In today's interview, the reporters' questions about Leonardo were a bit excessive. Would her brash answers make Leonardo feel disgusted? Nomsa organized her speech and decided to ask "Douglas" first, "Your cousin... did he see the interview?" Douglas recognized the hesitation in her tone and looked at her in surprise. His eyes flashed and said, "Yes." Nomsa asked, "Then he...?" Diuglas said with a natural expression, "He is very angry." Hearing this, Nomsa's heart skipped a beat and she became even more uneasy. She looked out of the window and realized that it was not the way back. She asked vigilantly, "Where are you going? I want to go back to the villa." Douglas ignored her as if he hadn't heard her words. He just stopped in front of a clinic on the roadside. He got out of the car and opened the door for Nomsa, "Can you get out? Or shall I hug you?" Hearing this, Nomsa hurriedly bent down and got out of the car. "You want to buy medicine?" Nomsa asked curiously when she saw him walking to the clinic. Nomsa followed up and heard him say to the doctor, "She fell and hurt her leg.Please take a look at her. Nomsa was shocked.
"Douglas "drove her to the clinic to check her legs.When the doctor heard it, he looked at Nomsa and said gently, "Come in and I'll help you see where you got hurt." "No,my leg is fine," Nomsa said as she couldn't help but look up at "Douglas." There was no expression on his face. When he stayed silent, He looked sharper and not like a playboy at all. Instead, he was so dominant, just like a king. This kind of "Douglas" made her panic. The doctor heard Nomsa's words and looked at Douglas. She smiled and said, "Your boyfriend cares about you. Just let me see." Nomsa immediately retorted, "We are not a couple!" Douglas smiled and didn't say anything. He pointed at a female doctor not far away and said, "We want a female doctor." The doctor smiled again and seemed to understand Douglas as he called the female doctor over.
The female doctor came over and blushed when she saw Douglas. Then, she gently rolled up Nomsa's trousers and looked at her knees. Her leg was fair, slender and straight. Even the female doctor could not help but praise her, "Your legs are beautiful." However, Nomsa felt uncomfortable when she thought of "Douglas" standing beside her. So, she put down her trousers. Her knees were just a little red and swollen. It was not an injury to her.She did not know why "Douglas" had to make a fuss about it. She turned her head and met his gaze. He glanced at her legs as if he did it carelessly, "You're quite resistant to falling." At that time, he saw her fall straight to the ground and did not stand up for a long time. So, he thought, that her leg was seriously injured. It was rare for him to have sarcasm in his words. Instead, it was as if he was sighing. Although Nomsa's legs were fine, the doctor still gave her some potions. After leaving the clinic, Douglas went to open the car door but he turned around to find that Nomsa did not follow him but was still standing at the clinic's door.
He turned around and narrowed his eyes as he looked at Nomsa, "What🤨, your leg hurts so much that you can't walk? Do you want me to hug you?" Nomsa never thought that her temper was good but she had never met a man as shameless as "Douglas" who could make her angry so easily. She said with a poker face, "Thank you for today. If you have anything to do, you can go now. I'll take a taxi back." Douglas liked to see her putting up with him. He leaned against the car and said indifferently, "I'm not busy. I'm just going to eat with my friends. Let's go together." Nomsa turned around and left. She knew that she couldn't talk to this man.And she didn't know why he had been pestering her. Could it be that he liked "ugly" women like her?
Nomsa walked a little further. Then she heard Douglas's voice coming from behind her. He seemed to be on the phone. "I'm outside. Yeah, I met Miss Jarret. We're going to have lunch together. You won't mind it, right? We're... After all, we meet every day...We ..." Nomsa paused and turned to see "Douglas" staring at her with a faint smile. The threat was self-evident. She had no doubt that if she took another step forward, he would claim "Nomsa seduced me." She clenched her fists and subdued her anger as she walked to "Douglas." A hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, "Miss Jarret, you may get in the car. Leonardo and I have something to say. Seeing Nomsa get into the car, he took his phone to the front.It was a lock screen, which meant he was not calling anyone just now.Just as Nomsa was about to unbuckle her seat belt, she stopped and looked at "Douglas" suspiciously, "Are we eating here?"
Was he sure he was not here to play? Douglas glanced at her and got off the car. Nomsa could only follow him. They walked towards the door one after the other. When Douglas walked in, the attendant bowed respectfully and said, "Welcome" However, when Nomsa walked in, he stopped her. The attendant raised his chin and looked at Nomsa, his eyes flashing with disdain, "What are you doing here?" Nomsa lowered her head and looked at her clothes. It was indeed a bit shabby, but she still said calmly, "Eat." She was about to walk in, but the attendant refused to let her in, "We are a high-end club. Not everyone can get in here. He had seen too many gold-diggers coming here to look for a sugar daddy. Most of those women were beautiful, but this woman was so ugly and dressed so shabbily. Letting her in was simply downgrading the clubhouse. Nomsa pouted her mouth. She didn't want to go in, either. After Douglas entered, he found that Nomsa did not follow him. When he turned around to look for her, he heard the attendant's words. He walked over and stretched out his long arm to pull Nomsa behind him.He looked at the attendant with a cold face,"What's your name?" Most of the people who came to this clubhouse were either rich or powerful. So, attendants here should a good eye on the guests. Douglas was tall and dominant. The attendant immediately became cowardly and stammered, "Al...Alfred." Hearing this, Douglas only gave him a cold glance and pulled Nomsa inside. Nobody dared to stop them now. Douglas was tall and walked fast. But Nomsa was much shorter than him.She was always half a step behind him. Although he was an unscrupulous playboy, his palms were so warm,which made Nomsa relaxed. She raised her head and looked at his broad shoulders in a daze.Apart from Jessica, this was the first time when someone had protected her like this.
...
The sound of the elevator door opening pulled her thoughts back. She raised her head and found that Douglas had stopped. He looked at her meaningfully.
Nomsa quickly pulled back the hand he was holding as if she was electrocuted. She panicked and entered the elevator. She had been holding hands with "Douglas" all the way. After Douglas entered the elevator, Nomsa stood at the farthest corner from him. Douglas glanced at her indifferently and said in a deep voice, "Why are you standing so far away? Are you so afraid of me?" Nomsa turned her head away and ignored him.
...
After arriving at the private room, Nomsa thought that she could finally breathe a sigh of relief. But she didn't expect to see someone else in the room. The man was dressed in a striped suit, wearing very elegant gold- rimmed glasses. He was handsome and gentle. His outstanding temperament was the proof that he was either rich or powerful. Everyone in the entertainment industry would recognize this man. He was Carl Jones, the CEO of the Tip Top Media Company! Carl seemed to sense her gaze. He looked up at Nomsa and smiled warmly. Douglas walked to the dining table, pulled up a chair and pressed Nomsa onto it. He looked at Carl and said, "My cousin-in-law." Carl seemed to be shocked for a moment, as if he had heard something interesting. The smile in his eyes deepened, and he said seriously, "Mrs Emerson." Nomsa felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, but she still politely greeted, "Mr Jones." This ugly woman knew Carl? Douglas looked up and threw the menu to Nomsa. He said in a cold tone, "You order." Nomsa did not know when she had offended him again. There was an outsider Carl here, so she did not say anything. She lowered her head and looked at the menu carefully.
...
Douglas' phone rang. He took out his phone and saw a text message from Carl, "What's up with you bringing her." Douglas was a little unhappy because Nomsa knew Carl. After reading the text message, he raised his leg and kicked on Carl's leg. "Mm,"Carl did not expect Douglas to be so ruthless. He snorted in pain. But because of Nomsa was here, he could only endure it.
Feeling the table shake, Nomsa looked up at Douglas blankly. "Have you ordered? "Douglas leaned over, his arm resting on her chair. They looked intimate because of his gesture but Nomsa was uncomfortable. She said, "Yeah." Then, she put the menu far away.
Fortunately, "Douglas" did not do anything out of line during the meal. He just kept chatting with Carl.nIt wasn't hard to tell that they had a good relationship.Nomsa concentrated on eating. Then she found an excuse to go out after eating. As soon as she left, Carl let out a long sigh of relief. He took off his glasses and changed his gentle image. He freaked out,"It's easy for you to go home and .....
I'm so busy alone in the company and I have to wear glasses every day to look mature and reliable. I don't care! I want to take a vacation!" Douglas said indifferently, "What kind of leave does the president on the Tip Top Media Company need? Even a bumpkin like Nomsa knows you, shouldn't you work harder?" "Hey! I have tens of millions of Weibo followers. Of course, many people know me. Besides, you are the boss of the company, okay? I work for you!" Carl said angrily, "If you don't return to work , I'll jump off the rooftop of the company and get you big news." Carl said this kind of threat three times a day. Douglas simply didn't care. He slowly drank some water before asking, "The HR Department really didn't receive Nomsa's resume?" Carl also puzzled, "I had my secretary to ask them every day. They really didn't receive hers." After saying that, he asked Douglas with a curious expression, "Your cousin-in-law looks like that, so how can you kiss her?" Douglas looked up at him coldly, "She looks like what?"
Carl swallowed his saliva and said flatteningly, "Pure, beautiful, and generous..." Douglas said,"Are you blind?" Carl was speechless. He could not say Nomsa was ugly, nor could he say she was beautiful.What was Douglas thinking about? He felt that ever since Douglas got married, he had become strange. Before leaving, Douglas seemed to remember something and instructed Carl, "You know the attendant called Alfred here? Fire him."
...
When they returned to villa ,it was already afternoon. Nomsa and Douglas entered the villa one after another. When she entered, she asked, "Is Mr Emerson at home?"
"No." After this period of training, the bodyguards no longer felt any pressure when they lied. After returning to her room, Nomsa lay on the bed. She was thinking about what she should tell Leonardo when he came back and asked about the interview.nHowever, she suddenly thought of "Douglas." He was very abnormal today. He treated her very well.
