535 Misinterpreted things
By the time Delila and her colleague finished their work, it was already past 12:30.
" Assistant Han has told me that the company van will be waiting for us outside." Delila said.
" Ehhh Del I don't think you need to take the company van." The colleague said pointing towards a man who was leaning against his against.
Delila pursed her lips when she saw Zechan waiting for her just like he always does.
" Seriously you don't have any feelings for him? How can you not fall for someone so sweet and thoughtful? Isn't it because he is worried about you going home alone so late that he is waiting for you at this time? Ahh such a sweetheart. He is not even your boyfriend yet he is doing so much for you Del imagine what he will do after you both get into an official relationship? Men like him are so difficult to find." Delila's colleague said.
Tucking into Delilas sleeves, her colleague said," If you are really not interested in him, why don't you pass me his number? I can try my luck what if he falls for me."
When Zechan saw Delila and her friend coming towards him, he took a deep breath and started walking towards the driver's seat. He wanted to leave immediately after whatever he had heard but couldn't. How could he leave her alone at night? Though the driver provided by Li Corporation was no doubt one of the Li clan men but Zechan still did not have the heart to leave her alone. What if something happened on the way and he wasn't there to protect her? No matter what Delila felt or did not feel for him, he knew that his feelings were genuine and pure so Zechan decided to let go his manly pride and at least drop her home safely.
" I'll get going now." Delila's colleague said.
" It's quite late and you are alone too. Why don't you come with us?" Delila said.
" Ohh will your friend not mind?" her colleague asked.
Getting into the passenger seat, Delila awkwardly asked," My friend is alone so can you drop her home too?"
With an expressionless face, Zechan slowly nodded his head and unlocked the back door.
Glancing at Zechan from time to time, Delila could feel that something was off about him. Usually he used ask her about her day at work and whether she had eaten anything or not as soon as she got into the car but today neither did he ask anything nor did he look at her.
After dropping her friend outside her apartment, Zechan quietly drove towards Delila's apartment.Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com
" You didn't have to stay so late outside the office. I had asked you leave then why did you stay?" Delila asked.
Zechan mockingly smirked and said," Because I am an idiot." before stepping on the gas and increasing the speed.
Grabbing her back from the backseat, Zechan said," Have a goodnight."
Without saying anything, Delila got down from the car and rushed inside.
After taking a few deep breaths, Zechan calmed himself down and drove towards his apartment.

Li Corporation.
Next say when Delila arrived at the office, her colleague gasped and asked," Del what happened? Why are your eyes so swollen? Did you cry? Did something happen?"
Delila shook her head and said," I am fine."
Just then Han Zihao arrived and said," Ms Delila, the president wants to see you."
Delila nodded her head and left along with Zihao.
.....
Inside Singtan's office.
" How is work?" Singtan asked.
Delila smiled and said," It's good sir."
" Is something bothering you?" Singtan asked.
Delila shook her head and said," No sir."
Taking out an invitation card from his drawer, Singtan said," It's my son's and Dr Mike's daughters birthday tomorrow and both of us want to come and celebrate it with us. I'll send someone to fetch you and your family tomorrow."
Taking the card, Delila smiled and said," Thank you sir and I'll be there on time."
Singtan smiled and said," We will be happy if you come."
