Chapter 16: Chapter 16 Do you know Mr. RK

After everyone from the project department finished the toast.

Elena looked at RK and said with a forced smile, "Mr. RK, we are all making fool of ourselves. Please don’t take it seriously...

But who is RK...

She didn’t need to say this, he never care about other people who are not important to him...

Just like that, When Elena spoke forget about replying, RK didn’t even look in her direction. It was like she was not talking to him...

Elena also knows his nature and quickly said...

"Then Mr. RK we will take our leave first..."

After she said, she left with more than 20 people.

Stella also didn’t want to stay here. So she quickly follows them. But as took a step forward, she was looking at her front and didn’t notice a foot, which suddenly come her way...

Stella’s foot tripped over the foot and she fall forward. But she tried to stabilize her balance, but then she stepped on someone else long skirt...

Because of the skirt, she can’t able to stabilize herself. First, she was tripped over by a foot and then stepped on someone else skirt...

Stella had a feeling that all people’s bad luck come to her...

She just closed her eyes and was ready to fall and make herself embarrassed.

But after waiting for a long, she didn’t feel any pain. Stella suddenly opened her eyes. Only to see that the man strong have held her waist and stopped her from falling...

His wrist was so strong that he had picked her up with one hand and made her stand at her former spot.

Stella stood there with some embarrassment.

Stella looked at the man’s hand which was on her waist. His fingers are long and his hand was fair. It also shows his joints clearly...

The strength of his hand was not too strong or light. She can feel the temperature of his hand on her waist. His palm was warm.

But being held by him like this, Stella felt like her body turn numb, and she didn’t dare to move.

Her eyes fell on his hand on her waist.

Because he had just pulled her, her back was pressed against his chest. They stood closer than before...

Stella looked up. But because of the height difference between them, Stella could only able to see his Adam’s apple.

His moving Adam apply, the familiar scent of his body and the warmth coming from his palm...

Stella felt everything is so familiar...

Her heart is beating very fast...

For a moment, she just want to stay like this and didn’t want to leave him...

"Stella, are you alright?"

Sophia stood up and interrupted her thoughts.

After that, she pulled Stella onto her side and moved her waist away from him, and the warmth of his plan went from her waist.

Sophia looked at her and asked, "Are you hurt? How did you about to fall? Are you not feeling well? Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"

Right now she was behaving opposite from what she had done when she had first met with Stella at the entrance of the banquet.

Right now she was like a more caring sister. It was like they were the most loving sisters in the world.

Anyway, Stella had long gotten used to her two-faced behavior...

Six years ago, Sophia was always like this. Behaving like a most caring sister in front of the RK.

Stella wasn’t in the mood to watch her acting...

She pulled her hand away from her and her face turn cold. She turn around and said, "Thank you so much, Mr. RK."

Her tone was cold and distant.

After she finished speaking, she was ready to leave.

But as she took a step, she paused and looked at Sophia’s foot.

Then she thought something...

If she was not wrong then the person who was blocking her way was also wearing the same red high heels, right?

Then her lips turn into a mocking smile...

What a beautiful unmarried couple...

One of them was playing tricks on her and wanted her to fall and the other was helping her. She really can’t understand them...

But...

She also doesn’t want to understand. What they do or do not, have nothing to do with her.

Stella quickly comes back to her seat.

When she come back, everyone was looking at her...

Lilly was the first one to speak, "Stella do you know Mr. RK?"

Lilly was Emily’s friend before. She was always like this. She was simple-minded and spoke whatever she want to ask without thinking too much or looking at the occasion.

"Mr. RK stood up when you had a toast to him before. He also help you when you were about to fall. Not only that, When Miss Elena asked you to finish your drink in front of him, he even care about your health and asked you not to drink too much... Tell me, Do you know Mr. RK."

But before Stella could reply to her, someone spoke from the side...

"Hay! Lilly you were too young to understand. It was just a trick to play hard to get and attract the boss’s attention."

A woman wearing a bright red short dress and heavy makeup said, "Look at the banquet hall. It was all flat and She was even wearing flat shoes. Can anyone still fall? But she did... It only means that she was doing it on a purpose..."

"Yes, you are all right. Mr. RK only cared about his employees. Didn’t you hear what he said before, You don’t have to drink because you still had to get to work tomorrow... It’s just that, some people are very shameless and think too highly of themselves..."

For a moment, there is a discussion on the table...

Everyone looking at Stella with unfriendly eyes...

Sometimes women are like this. When they saw that their boss was kind to an employee, they all said that it was the employee’s fault.

Stella didn’t want to explain anything to them. She knows that no matter what she says, no one is willing to believe that it was Sophia who tripped her.

She put down her spoon and was ready to leave. But Suddenly Elena who was sitting beside her spoke first...

"Shut up! All you are not feeling embarrassed enough in front of your boss and still wants cause trouble?"

When she speak everyone at the table was shocked and shut their mouths and didn’t dare to open their mouths.

She pushed her glasses and said, "Before you entered the company what I told you? Do you already forget?"

She asked.

Her voice was cold as she continued, "Let me tell you again, it is Unity. I don’t care what relationship Stella has with the boss or not. Or if she knows him or not. What I care about is the image of our team at the company. So I will not allow any words that will affect the image of our department... Do you hear me?"

Although Elena was strict and sharp when dealing with things, she was at least fair.

She didn’t have any thoughts like others slandering her.

Maybe, it was the reason why she was able to become an executive in the company.
