Chapter 1053 - Tom Can't Let Go

Someone like her is just a dust in society.

There were too many people like her, struggling to survive this harsh life.

Vivi continued to sigh, and when she raised her hand to take another cigarette, someone grabbed her shoulder hard from behind, and the cigarette on her finger fell to the ground.

She turned her head. In the midst of the cold cold wind, she suddenly met Tom's gloomy eyes. She couldn't help but be dazed for a moment.

Why is he here again?!

Her anger instantly flared, she really wanted to fight Tom.

She furrowed her brows and took a step back. She didn't speak, and only looked around warily.

"Are you smoking again?" Tom's gaze fell on the cigarette butt that had fallen on the ground, and his tone was furious. His face was also full of displeasure.

Vivi opened the distance and looked at him calmly. "Did you come for me?"

Tom looked at her, and sneered, "Why would I be looking for you? I was looking for Chris!"

After hearing that voice, Vivi clearly felt relieved. "Then, I will go up first!"

Tom. "???"

Why did he seem to be rejected by Vivi?!

Tom subconsciously wanted to stop her, but in the blink of an eye, Vivi was already running back into the lobby.

They hadn't seen each other for two days, so why was she avoiding him like some kind of snake?!

What is it!

Tom was confused, and when he walked into Chris' office, he couldn't figure out the reason.

In the office, Chris was sitting with Merry having lunch.

Tom came uninvited, walked over to the sofa and sat down majestically. He stared dazedly at the two of them as he lifted his leg.

Chris and Merry looked at each other, and the atmosphere instantly became awkward!

At this moment, Chris put down the lunch box in his hand, lifted his leg and kicked him. "You came to the wrong room, huh?"

Tom bent his legs and came back to his senses in a daze. "Chris, what are you talking about?"

Chris stared at him blankly, and wanted to throw the lunchbox on the table in his face.

In broad daylight, instead of working at his family's company, he always comes to his company!

When did this company become a playground for him?!

Tom caught Chris' look of displeasure and coughed in embarrassment. "Did I come at the wrong time?"

After hearing the voice, Merry wiped her mouth with a tissue, and asked wisely, "Brother, what are you doing here? Do you want to have a serious talk with Chris? If so, I can come back later."

"There's no need for that!" After that, Tom looked at Chris and asked confusedly. "Chris, your company's data department is really that busy, hmm?"

Chris knew what he meant when he heard Tom mention the data department.

He took his fork back and put a piece of meat for Merry, then looked at Tom teasingly. "What? Is she so busy with work that she doesn't have time to take care of you?"

Tom didn't say a word, but quietly stared at Chris with a blank stare.

Seeing his reaction, Chris knew that he was right.

He took his lunch box and devoured his food. Then he said, "Every department is very busy nearing the end of the year. If you don't understand what I'm saying, you better go back and ask your father if he's short on people or not." 

At that time, before Tom could speak, Merry chewed her food and looked at them with a clueless look. 

The data department, isn't that Vivi's department?

The little girl whispered, still muttering quietly, "Today... Sister Vivi seems to have been scolded!"

When the words fell, Tom immediately supported his waist. "Who scolded her?"

'Why did he suddenly react like that?' Merry thought.

Thinking of this, Tom couldn't help but stare at Chris, his eyes were accusing.

Chris looked at him calmly, narrowed his eyes, and smiled playfully, " What? You want to accuse me of doing it?"

Tom chuckled. "That's not it! Merry, tell me why she was scolded!"

After hearing the voice, Merry glanced at Chris, and when she nodded, she honestly told him what she heard.

After the little girl spoke, Chris raised an eyebrow, "Data error is a very serious error. Her boss scolded her a little, it was a natural thing and part of her job."

Tom was lying on the sofa. He held his forehead with one hand but didn't speak.

If it was all just a work error, there was no reason for her to distance herself from him… right?

Tom's blunt brain finally started working.

He felt that there must be a secret that he didn't know about!

At this moment, Chris looked directly at Tom. Maybe he didn't realize it, but Tom cared too much about Vivi's business!

Minutes later, Tom still couldn't find a plausible reason for Vivi's attitude towards him.

He sighed, looking melancholic as he walked out the door.

Chris. "..."

"Brother, did he do something to upset Sister Vivi?"

Merry looked at the closed door and turned her head doubtfully.

Chris sneered. "Looks like it's a lot more complicated than that!"

Merry was too lazy to jump into other people's problems, so she just held her cutlery and started eating again.

...

On the other hand, as Vivi thought, she couldn't leave her workplace at night.

After she reviewed her work, she found that seven of her 13 reports had been manipulated.

Even the formulas in the data were intentionally modified. Of course this wasn't a coincidence, this had clearly been changed.

Some people had been trying to put her down secretly.

At one o'clock in the morning, only Vivi was left at the office.

The lights in the office had basically gone out, except for the incandescent lamp above her head.

Vivi massaged her aching shoulder, looked at all the data tables, and finally laughed self-deprecatingly.

It was really hard to protect herself if she didn't know who her opponent was.

She was just an ordinary employee, why would the other person feel threatened by her and bother doing all this?

A cup of coffee was placed near her left hand.

Vivi was shocked and looked back in amazement. Seeing the indescribable expression of the other person, her heartbeat lost its beat for a moment. 

"Why are you here again?"

After speaking, she looked at the computer screen pretentiously.

Tom took a chair and sat down next to her, spread his long legs, and folded them. "What are you doing this late at night?"

Actually, Tom came back again in the evening. After returning home, he still felt uncomfortable.

Thinking of Vivi's reluctance, he couldn't let go of this matter easily.

Obviously, the two of them had a harmonious relationship before this. They talked and laughed before, why did it suddenly turn out like this?!

Did he do something wrong?!

At this time, Vivi looked at him, reached out and touched the coffee cup, feeling that it was still hot.

She didn't answer his question, but asked curiously, "It's midnight, where did you buy coffee?"

"I brought it from home, so drink it while it's warm!"

Tom's tone was flat and straightforward, making Vivi suddenly feel the coffee getting hotter.

She thanked him, turned her head and looked at the report on the screen. "I haven't finished my work yet, so if you don't have anything to do, go home and rest!"

Then, she heard Tom say two words. 

"No way!"
