C11 You Want Me to Go?

When people were excited, they didn't forget their president.

All of a sudden, the question of whether the CEO would participate in this event became the focus of everyone's attention.

While her colleagues were thinking about this problem, Jane was also thinking about Edwin.

Edwin was away on a business trip this week. She had not seen him for a few days. When would he come back?

Although he called on time every night, her relationship with him had not reached the point where they could talk about anything. Most of the time, the two people on the other end of the phone were silent.

At this time, someone posted an event in the company's activity group, betting whether the president would participate in this event. Each participant would pay 500 yuan.

Five hundred yuan was not a lot, and a lot of people participated in the event. Almost all the people in the company participated. Half of them thought that the CEO would go, while the other half thought that he would not.

Briana Rodriguez and Wade Wong ran over to Jane at the same time and asked with interest, "Jane, do you want to bet?"

Jane analyzed carefully.

Although Edwin had a cold personality, this was the first time since he had taken office that the company had organized such a big event, and they were going to such a luxurious place. He must have instructed Sienna Henry to prepare it, so he made a bet with Briana Rodriguez and the others that Edwin would participate.

Just before she got off work, Jane received a call from Edwin, who told her that he had come back from a business trip. So after work, Jane went to the supermarket again to buy ingredients, daily necessities, and some snacks for tomorrow's trip.

When she got home, Edwin was still busy in the study room. Jane greeted him and went to prepare dinner.

During dinner, Edwin still did not say a word and ate elegantly.

Jane peeked at him a few times. Finally, she mustered up the courage to ask, "Edwin, are you going to participate in the company's event tomorrow?"

Edwin acted as if he did not hear her question and continued to eat seriously.

When he did not answer, Jane felt a little awkward and lowered her head to eat again.

After a long time, Edwin put down his chopsticks, picked up a tissue, and wiped his mouth. He casually replied, "I'm not interested in this kind of activity."

Edwin did not say that he would not go, but it was obvious that he would not go.

"Oh," Jane whispered, unable to hide the disappointment in her voice.

"What? You want me to go?" Edwin suddenly said when he saw Jane's disappointed expression.

Jane scratched her head and giggled. She thought to herself, It doesn't matter if you go or not. What I care about is the 500 yuan I bet.

Under the bright light of the chandelier, Edwin raised his eyebrows slightly. Since she wanted him to go, as her husband, he would take some time to go.

...

The next day, Jane woke up early, but Edwin was still earlier than her.

They had been living together for some time. No matter how early she woke up, Edwin was already dressed and sitting by the window, reading the financial newspaper.

Sometimes, Jane felt that Edwin did not seem like someone who lived in this era.

His lifestyle was extremely regulated. Every day, he would take time to read the newspapers that were about to be eliminated, instead of learning information through the Internet.

"You're up!" He raised his head and glanced at her, then lowered his head to read the newspaper.

"Yes, good morning!" Jane looked at him and could not take her eyes off him.

Today, he was wearing white casual clothes. He sat quietly on the single sofa by the window, his long legs casually crossed. The morning sun shone gently on his body through the window, making him look a little warmer.

This man was not a human being, but a rare piece of art. He was so handsome that she wanted to keep him.

Jane's burning gaze attracted Edwin's attention. However, he ignored her and continued to calmly flip through the newspaper in his hand.

His appearance often attracted countless infatuated gazes, which made him feel very disgusted. However, he did not dislike it when Jane looked at him like that.

After a long while, Jane's gaze still had not left him. He raised his head and looked at her. "Aren't you going to participate in the company's event?"

"I almost forgot if you didn't mention it." Jane smiled awkwardly and casually found an excuse.

She had thought that a piece of art like Edwin would sell for a good price at the auction, but Edwin's voice woke her up like a bucket of cold water.

...

The company rented two 50-seater buses and sent her colleagues to Bi Hai Villa for a vacation.

When the department head counted the number of people, everyone's eyes were looking left and right, wondering if the CEO would come or not.

Briana Rodriguez, who was beside Jane, said, "God bless the president. He must come."

Jane blurted out, "He won't come."

Briana Rodriguez stared at Jane with wide eyes. "How did you know?"

Jane realized that she had leaked the information and immediately added, "The CEO is usually very punctual. He hasn't come today, so he definitely won't come."

Briana Rodriguez lowered her head in disappointment, and the female colleague who heard her sigh in disappointment.

The female colleagues knew very well that they usually did not see the president at work and did not have the chance to show off in front of him. This trip was a good opportunity.

Everyone took out their beautiful clothes and wanted to show their faces in front of the president, but he would not come at all.

After more than an hour, the bus finally arrived at Bi Hai Villa by the sea. The first thing they did when they arrived was to get their room cards.

Jane was supposed to share a room with Briana Rodriguez, but Sienna Henry suddenly stood up and said, "Jane, there are not enough rooms here. You can share a room with me."

Sienna Henry was the CEO's favorite, and Jane had been appointed by her to live in a room that everyone envied.

When everyone had collected their room cards and were busy looking at the rooms, Sienna Henry said, "Everyone, please wait. Boss Carter wants to talk to you."

Boss Carter!

For a moment, everyone's eyes lit up. Was Boss Carter really here?

Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, Edwin, dressed in a silver-gray hand-cut suit, walked slowly through the door, making the hearts of his female colleagues thump with every step he took.

When Jane saw Edwin appear, she thought about how not only was the 500 yuan from her bet still there, but she could also win a few hundred more yuan. She was very happy.

When Edwin's gaze swept over, he saw that Jane was smiling brightly. He thought to himself that he had only spent some time to go through the motions, but he could make her so happy?

He walked over and smiled politely at everyone. "Everyone, have fun and eat as much as you want. The company will be responsible for all the expenses."

Everyone jumped up in excitement and almost shouted long live the CEO. Only Jane stood quietly behind him, thinking that he was really rich and could do whatever he wanted.

Sienna Henry used the excuse that the rooms here had been allocated, and led Jane to the independent villa district of the resort.

Jane was a little nervous when she saw the scenery and facilities here. Could it be that Sienna Henry brought her here for another purpose?

Jane's guess was right. Sienna Henry sent her to Edwin's private residence.
