Chapter 472:
I wanted to refuse. After all, he would have to drive further to get me to work. But Klein didn’t give me a chance to protest. He pulled me by the hand and led me to his car.
Along the way, I looked out the car window, feeling like Klein was constantly looking at me. There seemed to be a strange smile on his face, which made me feel a bit uncomfortable.
I didn’t feel as relaxed as usual.
“I’m sorry. Last night, because you took care of me, you didn’t get much rest. You didn’t even have breakfast. And now, you’re running late,” Klein said.
I replied, “We’re friends. You were sick, so I should take care of you. Besides, you’re driving me to work, so I won’t be late.”
I lowered my head and glanced at my phone. I was still on time for work. When I heard him say that I had taken care of him last night…
My cheeks began to burn. In truth, last night, I had been sleeping with Klein in my arms.
“Klein.”
“Bella.”
We spoke almost at the same time and then stopped simultaneously. I quickly adjusted my hair and changed the subject.

“By the way, your friend’s company has been doing well recently. There are a lot more orders.”
“My friend’s father is a businessman. He recently ventured out to start his own company. Actually, his family has quite a few connections. By the way, last time he told me that you performed really well at his place. He mentioned that he wanted to give you a raise, but I knew he wasn’t going to. He was just afraid you might leave for another job. Where would he find an employee as capable as you?”
Klein laughed as he drove. Despite feeling a bit awkward, he seemed to be in a good mood and was in high spirits. It appeared that he had already recovered from his cold.
“In fact, my boss also takes good care of me. He asked me to rest a little longer at noon. Otherwise, how could I come back to feed Lucky? Besides, I don’t have much work to do. I definitely won’t change jobs,” I replied.
“If he knew what you were saying, he’d definitely be very happy,” Klein said with a chuckle.
The atmosphere between us had eased a bit. The car slowly came to a stop at the base of the building where I worked. Klein glanced down at the watch on his wrist.
“There’s still five minutes until nine. You’re just on time.”
“Thank you.”
I turned my head and thanked him. Then I unfastened my seatbelt, picked up my bag, and reached out to open the door. Klein furrowed his brow and then reached out to grab my arm.
“Wait a moment!”
I turned to look at Klein, who wore a very serious expression on his face. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
“What’s wrong?” I asked in confusion.
