Chapter 60: Travel – 1
After a week, the first tour also started. According to the route, we traveled by plane to the North, then rented a few coaches to continue to the mountainous area.
I haven’t been on a plane for a long time. Since the day my father passed away, I no longer have the opportunity to fly in the sky.
“Oh, Mr. Harold.” I exclaimed when I saw the golden man sitting down next to me.
Admiring glances immediately turned towards me. People are not surprised because before, we used to interact very enthusiastically on social networks.
I was originally an overshadowed person in the company, only shining in the sales department, but thanks to the blessing of Brian and his brother, I became a superstar of AD company.
Now, if anyone rushes into the company and asks Bella of the sales department, both the security guard and the janitor know me.
“Hello. Finally, you have fulfilled your wish.” Harold winked and gave me a bright smile.
“I don’t think the company will include the northern mountainous region in the selection list.” I said softly.
“Not from the company. I suggested that place.”
“Huh?”
He nodded to confirm once more then sat up straight and closed his eyes. Perhaps he had worked all night so his face looked listless.
The pressure of the top leaders made me feel suffocated.
If I were in that position, I would go crazy, I would go crazy if I had to think about so many things.
After more than two hours of flying in the sky, the plane landed at the airport.
I also did not expect that Harold had slept soundly for two hours and only woke up when the plane was about to land.
Honestly, I feel a little guilty. If we travel to nearby places, we will travel by car, much less expensive.
To go to a place as far as this place, of course, we have to take a plane. If we bought a train ticket and sat for thirty hours, everyone would be weak, limp, and unable to play and dance.
The purpose of this trip is for everyone to rest and relax so that they can work efficiently. If we take the train, we will have to be hospitalized and receive intravenous fluids.
“Bella, you let your boss go alone, and you go with your boss’s brother, huh?” Mrs. Erina held my hand and asked softly.
“Boss? Which boss?” I froze, looking at her in bewilderment.
“Oh my god, this girl, he’s the director of our sales department.”
I followed her gaze and I realized that the man standing not far from me was Brian.
Even though I stubbornly refused to accept this fact, when I blinked my eyes ten times, it was still him. Still pure white shirt and black trousers, the outfit is simple but expensive and attractive to others.
Turns out he cheated on me. I felt like a stupid lamb and was always controlled by a wolf named Brian.
The tour group quickly moved outside to get on the coaches, continuing to move up the highlands.
I won’t be stupid and won’t get on the coach first. I waited until Harold, Brian and some senior staff got into one coach before I mixed in with the staff of other departments to get on the other coach.
“Oh, not enough seats.” A girl shouted loudly.
Everyone looked at each other, but the deputy head of the tour group firmly confirmed that she had calculated and booked the coach with enough seats, no excess, and no shortage of seats.
As a result, after she jumped out of the coach and ran to other coaches to check, I was the one who was called to stand up.
“Oh my, Bella, the boss and senior staff have to sit in that coach. Go to that coach, baby, there’s a seat for you.”
She said as she grabbed me and pulled me towards the coach door.
I feel so pathetic. I couldn’t keep my seat. I don’t want to travel anymore, I want to go back home.
Since when did I become a senior employee? I just need to make tea, pour water, and follow Brian and I will become a senior employee, huh?
The moment I stepped into the coach for bosses and senior employees, I confirmed that the universe was against me.
The two biggest bosses of AD company, oh no, I should call them the second two biggest bosses of Hana Group, it would be more accurate. They were sitting on the back bench instead of the double seats above.
And the only empty seat is the seat between Brian and a female employee. I wonder why that girl doesn’t sit next to him. That way, at least I can stay away from him for a bit.
“Bella.” Harold raised his hand to beckon me.
“Yes.”
I obediently approached and sat next to Brian. The scent of mint from him and the scent of sandalwood from Harold is very pleasant, but in this situation, I feel extremely pressured.
“Hello, director.” I opened my mouth to say hello.
“Uh. Hello.” Brian replied softly.
The coach slowly moved towards the highway.
I didn’t find a comfortable position for myself. I don’t know if Brian did it on purpose or not, but his arms kept rubbing against me. I feel like he’s groping me.
“Mr. Harold, can you change seats with me? I… I like to sit near the coach window.” I leaned over to him and begged.
“Yes, of course.”
Harold happily agreed and stood up.
I quickly grabbed my backpack and rushed over to him. However, something must be wrong. The person sitting next to me is still Brian.
What I do makes no sense, right? But anyway, when he lunges at me, I can still dodge, if I sit on the other side, I don’t dare move for fear of disturbing the female employee.
About five minutes later, suddenly, a hand slipped behind me. Soon, Brian’s arm wrapped half of my body. I was wrong when I thought that in public I would be safe from him.
I used my eyes to signal him to pull his hand back, but he not only didn’t let go of me, but he tightened his grip.
On those thin lips was a smile, which looked very scary, not attractive at all.
While Brian and I were looking at each other, the coach suddenly swerved. I fell against the window of the coach, and Brian also fell.
Everything happened so fast that I didn’t have time to avoid his reluctant kiss. This is the first time we have kissed since we met again.
“Director, you should sit up straight.” I used my strength to push Brian away.
Woe to me. He let go of me for a moment when the damn coach swerved again. And this time it was in the opposite direction that made me rush towards him.
The scene I saw at this moment seemed more horrifying than the sudden kiss just now.
I lay on Brian, Brian fell on Harold and Harold fell on that female employee.
In short, it’s similar to the domino effect, but the important thing is that the domino named Harold is pressing his face on the female employee’s chest.
I guess that Brian’s brother and the girl were facing each other to talk, which led to this strange situation.
The four of us quickly sat up straight. Harold repeatedly apologized to the girl even though it wasn’t his intention.
I sit quietly. If I don’t use all my strength to push Brian, when the car changes direction, Harold won’t turn into a pervert.
Although I was scared, about ten minutes later, when everyone gradually forgot, I felt funny when I remembered that funny moment.
I turned my face to the windscreen and covered my lips with my hand, smiling to myself.
When I was on the plane, I couldn’t sleep at all so my eyelids were heavy, so I leaned against the windshield and closed my eyes.
After dreaming for a while, I suddenly felt a heavy weight on my shoulder. I quickly turned to the side and saw Brian’s head resting on my shoulder.
“Shh…”
Harold put his finger to his lips, signaling me to be quiet before I could push Brian to his side.
Oh, because he doesn’t know about my troubled relationship with his brother, he feels fine, but I feel uncomfortable.
Just thinking about this man who was so close to Hellen and now touches me makes me extremely uncomfortable even though my heart still loves him very much.
“You let Brian lean on you for a while. These days, he has a lot of work, so he must have stayed up late.”
I didn’t say anything, just nodded slightly and continued to lean toward the windshield. There was a little sadness welling up in my heart.
I feel that Harold treats Brian well, if I put it bluntly, I feel that he loves this brother who is not related by blood, unlike the one who wants to push Brian out of the Hana group.
After nearly four hours, we arrived. Although tired, everyone’s eyes were sparkling, and everyone’s mouth was open when witnessing the mountain in the top fifteen highest mountains in this beautiful country.
This mountain is nearly three thousand meters high. The place we chose to camp is a beautiful and unspoiled valley.
“Focus here guys. We will move to the campsite by walking. The coach can’t get in.” The group leader raised her hands to signal everyone to be quiet and speak loudly.
“No problem.” Everyone replied in unison.
My whole body felt numb when I heard the echoing sounds of my colleagues.
The green color of this place makes me feel very peaceful. Nature always knows how to comfort those who are sad and hurt like me.
I unconsciously looked for Brian and realized that his eyes were still on me as if he had never left me.
I wonder if that look is sincere or a lie. I wonder if he still hates me or not. I wonder what the current relationship between him and Hellen is. I wonder how much he loves me.
