Chapter 80 If You’re Not Happy, You Can Kiss Back
Gwenda gritted her teeth and glared at him. "I'm done with you!"
With that, she ran back to her room and slammed the door shut.
Outside, Olivier burst out laughing at this sight. "If you're not happy about it, you can kiss me back."
"Get out of here!"
Gwenda's angry voice came from her room.
Olivier's smile grew bigger and he went up to Gwenda's bedroom door. "You really want me to leave?
In that case, I'll be going then?"
Gwenda did not want to talk to him anymore.
After a while, Olivier's deep voice came through the door. "Rest well then. I'm leaving."
Gwenda fell onto her bed and used a pillow to cover her face. She still chose not to respond.
A moment later, her front door clicked shut.
Hearing that, Gwenda sat up on her bed and quietly went to open her room door. Poking her head out,
she scanned the living room. Once she was certain that Olivier had left, she let out a sigh of relief.
He finally left.
If he had continued to stay, Gwenda was not sure if she would be able to maintain control over herself.
Patting her face, Gwenda decided to stop thinking about it and returned to her room. She took a bath
and went to bed.
Gwenda stayed home to recuperate for the next few days.
During this period, she occasionally took some time to manage Cecilia's work.
Two days later, she made a full recovery and officially went back to work.
"Gwenda, this is Cecilia's work schedule for the month."
Early in the morning, Hattie gave Gwenda the schedule for her perusal.
Gwenda scanned it briefly when she caught sight of something for today's schedule. Frowning, she
asked, "Who arranged for the charity banquet tomorrow night? Why didn't I know about this?"
"Oh, I forgot to tell you."
Hattie smiled sheepishly and explained, "It's like this. Cecilia said that one of the organisers of
tomorrow's charity banquet is someone that she knows, and she got roped into helping at the last
minute. Because she's indebted to him, she... agreed to it without asking for your permission. I was
going to tell you yesterday, but I was so busy that I forgot..."
Gwenda's face darkened. "Accepting jobs without authorisation is against the regulations of the studio.
Does Cecilia know this?"
"She does. That's why we're asking for your permission now. She said that if you didn't agree, she
would turn it down."
Hattie answered cautiously.
Although Gwenda got along well with them during most days, she was particularly strict and serious
when it came to matters about work.
...
Therefore, Hattie did not dare to slack off.
"Never mind."
Gwenda knew that it was not a big deal and did not want to make things difficult for them. "Since she's
already agreed to it, then let her go. But the contract still needs to be signed for a commercial
performance like this. Follow up on that, will you?"
"Okay, Gwenda."
"Also, I'll be going with her tomorrow night. Please make the necessary arrangements."
Hattie nodded in response. "Yes, I'll do that right away."
At the same time, in a different part of town, Martin also received an invitation to attend a charity
banquet at the general manager's office of Morel Group.
...
...
"Martin, who are you going to bring with you to attend the charity banquet this time?"
Gretchen was perched on Martin's lap. She pretended to ask in an offhand manner as she studied the
invitation in her hands.
Holding her in his arms, Martin murmured in her ear, "You, of course."
Gretchen pulled away slightly and said with embarrassment, "But... our relationship... it's not
convenient for me to accompany you now, is it?"
"Why not? You're my girlfriend. If it's not you, who else would it be?"
"Then, you're ready to publicise our relationship?"
Gretchen asked.
Martin kissed her earlobe with a slight smile. "Of course! Don't worry, no one would dare say anything
while I'm with you."
Gretchen smiled and said, "You're so good to me, Martin."
"Hmm? And how good is that?"
Martin's arm slowly tightened around her waist as he gazed deeply into her eyes.
Gretchen turned red in the face. "Um, really, really good."
"Since I've been so good to you, then why don't you give me a reward?"
Martin held her chin with two fingers, his words clearly hinting at something.
"You're so annoying!"
Gretchen grumbled with a pout and got up to escape.
Martin scooped her up and placed her upon the table. "Where are you trying to run off to?"
"Martin, this is your office..."
Gretchen's words were cut off by his kiss.
The office began to feel a little hot.
...
The next day, Gwenda accompanied Cecilia to participate in the rehearsal of "The Best Singer" TV
programme.
When the rehearsal ended, it was evening. They rushed back to the studio and changed into formal
dresses to attend the charity banquet.
On the way, Cecilia spoke of accepting the job without Gwenda's permission and apologised to her.
"Gwenda, I know I have made a mistake and I apologise."
"It's alright. You're a kind and affectionate person, so I'll let it slide this once. However, I hope that this
will not happen again. See to it that it doesn't."
Cecilia nodded. "Don't worry, I promise that it won't."
"Very well, then. Perform well tonight."
"Okay."
With that, they moved on from this incident.
Soon, the car arrived at where the charity banquet was held.
With all eyes on her, Cecilia walked onto the red carpet.
Gwenda took a detour and led Hattie towards the lifts where they would wait for Cecilia.
As boredom began to set in, Hattie suddenly nudged Gwenda and said, "Gwenda, look."
