Chapter 928:
“What? A week? Isn’t that too cruel?” I said loudly.
“I haven’t said ‘a month,'” Bella replied.
“Okay then. I won’t touch you. I’ll just endure it for a week. I can do it.”
After that, I lay down on my side and fell asleep.
Bella’s POV:
The next morning, I woke up early and headed to the office. I was in such a good mood.
“What happened? Why are you so happy?”
Joey teased me when she saw me.
Hearing this, I smiled and said, “You’d better prepare a gift in advance.”
Joey curled her lips and replied, “I’m your bridesmaid. You’d better go back and ask your man to prepare a gift for me, or I’ll quit.”
I knew Joey was joking, so I didn’t mind what she said.
“Come with me to buy a few pairs of shoes after work.”
“Why don’t you ask Herbert to go with you? He’ll pay for it,” Joey said.
“He has a social event tonight. Besides, I don’t trust his taste,” I said with a smile.
“Then treat me to dinner tonight,” Joey added.
“It’s just a meal, no problem,” I nodded.
When it was time to get off work, all the employees had left. I walked to Joey’s seat and urged her, “Hurry up and leave. I’ll lock the documents.”
As she spoke, Joey put the document in her hand into the file box.
With my sharp eyes, I immediately noticed a bag in the file box. I couldn’t help but ask, “You haven’t given that pair of pants to him yet?”
Last time, she had accidentally spilled coffee on Connor’s pants, so Joey bought a new pair to give to him. I never expected that after so many days, she still hadn’t given them to him.
Joey was stunned for a moment before saying, “I’m not going to give them to him.”
I was surprised and asked, “You’ve already bought them. Why don’t you just give them to him?”
At that moment, Joey locked the file box, then turned around and pulled me out. I noticed that her expression seemed a bit off.
“If I gave him a pair of pants for no reason, I feel like it might make him think too much. I think it’s better not to give them,” she explained.
Hearing this, I realized that although I could tell Joey had a good impression of Connor, it was clear he wasn’t interested in her. Giving him those pants now didn’t make much sense.
So, I smiled and said, “Since you don’t want to give them to him, why don’t you get a refund? The pants were quite expensive. It would be better to exchange them for clothes you can wear.”
“The refund period has passed. Forget it, I’ll just keep them for my boyfriend in the future,” Joey said with a self-deprecating smile.
“When will you have a boyfriend?” I asked.
