Chapter 79 Accident On The Road

Mary bit her lips nervously and asked, "Why aren't you eating? Is there something wrong with the food?"

"I have no appetite," said William. He put down the chopsticks on his plate and then stood up to leave. "Well, I should pack up my things and go to work."

"Okay," said Mary, taking a sip out of her cup. As soon as she raised her head, her eyes caught sight of William's broad gym-honed shoulders from the back and the loose bath towel tapering to his waist.

'Oh no! I shouldn't stare at him like that!'

Mary immediately lowered her eyes to her plate and finished her meal.

While Mary was clearing up the bowls and chopsticks from the table, William walked out of the bedroom and asked, "Do you want to come along?"

"Sure!" Mary nodded, untying the apron from her waist and leaving it on the sink.

"Okay, I'll wait for you in the car."

William coughed and wheezed all through the drive constantly.

"Please stop over here for a moment!" Mary grabbed his arm and said.

"Here? Why? What are you doing?" Glancing at her with confusion, William pulled over to the side of the road.

"I'm going to get you some medicine for that cold!" Mary put down her bag and pushed the door open. "Just wait here, I'll be right back!"

She sprang out of the car and bolted across the moderately busy road.

Before William could say anything to stop her, he helplessly watched her run into the pharmacy in a hurry. He smiled and shook his head, eyebrows raised in incredulity. Indeed, the pain in his throat was unbearable.

Shortly after, William saw Mary running out of the pharmacy with a large bag in her hand.

'Hold on! Why are there so many medicines? I'll never finish eating these!'

William burst into laughter, deeply amused by the woman's high-spirited behavior. However, just a

"Why are you making such a fuss?" Victor sat down slowly again and picked up the medicine box. "Didn't you already know about my feelings for her?"

"Yes, but this is our place of work! If someone else had seen you, do you think you'd stay in this circle safely? Well?" Jorge stood in front of Victor angrily. "Is this really how you want your acting career to end? "

"I don't plan on living like this for a long time." Victor squinted his eyes pensively.

"You..." Jorge kept silent and shook his head in disbelief.

When Mary arrived at the office, she was relieved to see that there was only Jane in the hall.

"Mary, do you know what time it is? It's not like you at all to be so late!" Jane looked at Mary with an incredulous expression on her face. After all, the woman was thirty minutes late.

"There was an accident..." Mary waved her hand at Jane's face.

"What accident?"

Suddenly, William's voice grabbed her attention.

Mary's heart skipped a beat as she slowly turned around and said, "Boss, I..."

"Why are you so late? "

"I... I was in the bathroom... I'm sorry it took so long."

"Okay." Without saying anything else, William turned around and walked towards his office. Mary breathed a sigh of relief.

Just then, the elevator suddenly stopped on this floor.

"Victor?" said Jane, looking at the person in the elevator in confusion.

"Hmm?" At the same time, Mary and William turned around together.

Victor came walking out of the elevator, nonchalantly carrying Mary's bag in his hands. He walked to Mary with a bright smile on his face and said, "You forgot your bag."

"Oh, thank you."

"Well, you go ahead with your work. I should get going," said Victor, titling his head to look in the direction of William.

"Okay, bye."
