Once she had entered the office, Edith put the bag of lunch box on the coffee table and sat down on the sofa.

She glanced at the desk and sighed when she could not see Neil. Usually, Neil whenever she came in, Neil would be sitting behind his desk and he would lift his head to smile at her.

Edith snapped out of her thought and smiled sheepishly to herself. They haven't seen each other for a few hours and now that she could not see his face, Edith thought that she was missing him terribly.

Seeing that she will need to wait for him for a while, Edith took out her phone and started to read some of the novels that she has been following. Just as she was about to reach an exciting part, someone pushed the door from the outside and entered.

Edith stood up, thinking that Neil had returned from his meeting. However, the person in front of her was not Neil, but a very pretty lady in suit pants and short hair.

The two of them looked at each other in a scrutinizing gaze.

Since this woman had dared to enter Neil's office without being stopped by the secretaries outside, Edith had thought that this woman should be someone important in the company.

"Hello," Edith took the initiative to greet the other woman. "Are you looking for President Mo?"

Seeing the smile on Edith's face, Jamie Xu let her guard down and entered the room. A bright smile curved on her face. "Hello. I was told to wait for President Mo in his office." Jamie stepped closer and stretched her hand for a handshake. "My name is Jamie Xu. I am here for an interview."

Edith seemed to recall hearing Neil and Henry talked about a new staff that will be joining the company. 

"I'm Edith Qian." Stretching her arms, Edith shook hand with Jamie. However, as their hands touched, Edith suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Perhaps, she had been thinking too much, but Edith thought that Jamie was touching her hand differently. It was the same feeling she got when a lecherous man was touching her inappropriately.

Edith quickly retracted her hand and motioned towards the two-seater sofa across her. "Please, have a seat. President Mo should be here soon." 

Jamie smiled and did not attempt to move. "Miss Qian, are you here for an interview too?"

"No." She smiled and did not make another explanation. 

When Edith was seated, Jamie moved to sit closer beside her. "Then why are you here?" Seeing the strange look on Edith's face, Jamie chuckled and explained, "I am merely trying to strike a conversation as we are both waiting for President Mo."

Edith scooted away, feeling a little uncomfortable. "We can talk, but you don't need to sit too close to me."

"Sorry," Jamie lowered her gaze. Then, she looked at Edith again and her gaze grew brighter as she gave Edith another look over. 

No matter how long she looks, Jamie thought that Edith was just her type. 

Edith gave off an innocent vibe that she liked.

Suddenly, her bad habit resurfaced and Jamie had the urge to tease the woman in front of her until her face turned bright red. Just imagining how she was going to react made Jamie excited.

Noticing that Edith had turned to look at her phone, Jamie stretched her arms to touch a few strands of Edith's hair. Her hands were an inch away when Edith suddenly moved to avoid her.

Jamie was not sure what had happened, but seconds later, her hands were pulled behind her back and her head was pushed towards the sofa's armrest. 

This was the scene that Neil had witnessed when he appeared at the door. "Edith, are you alright?" Neil asked.

Hearing his voice, the two women turned their heads to the door.

"Neil Mo, ask this crazy woman to get off me!" Jamie hissed. Her gaze peeked at the woman who had locked her movement. Jamie had thought that Edith was a soft and gentle woman. She did not expect that Edith would suddenly attack her when she only wanted to touch her hair.

Neil walked over to his girlfriend and a breath of relief escaped him upon finding that his girlfriend was unharmed. "You can let her go now."

Edith narrowed her eyes before she gave Jamie a shove.

"Did she do anything to you?" Neil asked, concerned.

Edith shook her head. "She was trying to touch me and I reacted quickly."

His gaze darkened and Neil pulled Edith to hide behind him.

Seeing that Neil was protecting the woman, Jamie grew angry. "She attacked me first, but you're protecting her?"

"You deserved it." Neil's tone was cold and distant. "Jamie, I permitted you to return to L City, but it does not mean that you should continue to act recklessly. If I see you approaching my girlfriend again, I swear to god, that I will sever our friendship. I don't care if our family has been friends for years. Stay away from my girlfriend!"

"Your girlfriend?" Jamie took a step back. It was at this time that she noticed that the two were holding hands. "She's your girlfriend?"

She was not expecting Edith to be Neil's girlfriend! Neil's last relationship was with Amanda Shen, and that woman was very different than Edith.

Suddenly, her expression changed.

The last time, Jamie had almost ruined their years of friendship when she had made a move on Neil's girlfriend, Amanda Shen. In her defense, Jamie had only wanted to make a point that Amanda was not suitable for her friend. 

Jamie had tried to seduce Amanda and that woman had taken the bait.

She did not expect that Neil would be so angry when he found them in her apartment.

Sensing that the two were about to get into a fight, Henry stepped forward and tried to ease the tension. "Alright, you two. Stop fighting." His gaze paused at Neil. "Jamie had just returned. She didn't know that Edith is your girlfriend." He stepped closer to Neil and whispered, "Remember that you still need Jamie's help."

Neil turned to Henry angrily. "I don't care. I can always find someone else to help."

Henry muttered a cursing word before he turned to Jamie. "Aren't you here to apologize?"

Seeing that Jamie did not make a move, Henry heaved a sigh . He turned to Edith and sent her a distress signal. "Miss Qian, can you help me to coax him?"

Edith glanced at her boyfriend and saw the angry look on his face. She tugged at his hand and smiled when he looked at her. "Darling, I'm alright. Don't be angry. But," Edith turned to look at Jamie with a curious gaze. "Who is this person?"

"Miss Qian, let me introduce you," Henry spoke. "This is Jamie Xu, a good friend of ours. I hope that you can forgive her if she had offended you." He paused to let out a dry cough.. "Jamie… she… had preferences towards women."
