Filed To Story: Returning to Her Not-So-Poor Family
She thought he was acting a bit strange all of a sudden.
After lunch, Mirabella went back to the office, and Julian immediately put the purchased items in front of her.
“Ms. Bella, these are some newly bought coffee beans; would you like to try them?”
“Coffee sounds nice.”
“Til brew it for you right away!”
After Julian made the coffee, he brought a cup to Hans and one to Mirabella and said, “Ms. Bella, have a taste; how’s the flavor? Is it too bitter? Do you need some sugar?”
“It’s fine; you go do your work.” After Mirabella said that, she looked at Hans sitting on the sofa and couldn’t help but ask, “Do you really like this brand of coffee that much?”
“Yes, this coffee has a rich flavor without being bitter, and the aroma is fragrant without being greasy, truly a rare taste.” Hans replied gently, “You should have a taste”
After that, he turned to Julian and asked, “Have you told them yet?”
“Yes. I’ve informed the procurement department that from now on, Ms. Bennett’s coffee will be sent directly from the headquarters; there is no need for the procurement department to buy it separately.”
“Hmm” Hans lifted his coffee for a sip
Mirabella also tried hers “It’s pretty good
At that moment, someone brought in a bunch of snacks Julian took it upon himself to sort them out. “Ms. Bella, Mr. Collins doesn’t usually snack. If there’s anything you don’t like, let me know, and I won’t have it brought next time”
“Okay” Mirabella wasn’t much into snacks either, but she was touched by her brother’s thoughtfulness.
Julian sorted the snacks into categories, labeling them as nuts, spicy snacks, biscuits, candies, pastries, chips, and so on, making it easier for Mirabella to find them later
Dean watched this with envy, wishing he had such a considerate brother.
Once Julian was done, Hans told him to head back to the headquarters: “I’ll stay with Bella a bit longer.”
He was leaving the country tomorrow and didn’t know when he’d have time to spend with his sister again.
“Okay” Julian respectfully left.
“Ms. Bennett, won’t those spicy snacks be too hot for you? If you want, I could taste them first.” Dean said with a smile.
Mirabella replied without emotion, “Go do your work.”
She hadn’t even touched the snacks Hans had sent, and Dean was trying to get a taste?
“Okay” Disappointed, Dean left.
“Do your thing; don’t mind me.” Hans sat opposite Mirabella, quietly watching her busy at her computer.
Her slender fingers alternated between typing, replying to voice messages, checking files, and signing documents. In less than half an hour, she had dealt with several matters.
Her work efficiency was really impressive for an eighteen–year–old girl!
After a while, she received a phone call and went out to the balcony. Just then, someone knocked on the office door. Hans casually said, “Come in.”
Molly entered, surprised to see Hans still there. So, the voice she heard was real!
She hid the things in her hand behind her and said, “Hello, Mr. Collins.”
“What are you hiding?” Hans asked curiously.
Knowing she couldn’t hide it, Molly brought out her stuff: “Ms. Bennett helped me out a lot before. I bought some tasty snacks online recently and wanted to share them with her. I’m not slacking off, am I?”
She looked a little nervous.
“She’s on the phone.” Hans replied calmly, “Just leave it on her desk.”
“Thank you, Mr. Collins!” Molly hurriedly placed the snacks on Mirabella’s desk. In her rush, she bumped her knee into the chair next to Hans and yelled in pain. As she turned to leave, her skirt got caught on the chair.
“Oh no.” And down she went, chair and all.
Hans reacted quickly, catching her. Just like that, Molly ended up in his arms.
Molly looked up in shock at the man before her as Hans looked down at her. The warmth from the girl in his arms instantly filled him.
Mirabella walked in after her call, seeing the two in a compromising position. She thought, Wow, that escalated quickly, didn’t it?
“Are you okay?” Hans asked the girl in his arms.
“I’m fine.” Molly tried to stand up several times but kept slipping because of her torn skirt, falling back into Hans‘ arms.
Her face was burning hot, and she started to stutter, “I’m sorry, Mr. Collins. I didn’t mean to.”
She was so emotional that she was on the verge of tears and felt extremely embarrassed. Eventually, she gathered her courage to stand up, but she didn’t expect to step on her own skirt, making the tear even worse. Right in front of Hans, her skirt completely ripped apart, scaring her to the point of screaming, “Ah.”
Hans quickly took off his suit jacket and wrapped it around her waist, tying a knot with the sleeves, successfully covering her embarrassment.
“Mr. Collins, I’m really sorry. Thank you.” Molly was so ashamed that she couldn’t explain and hurriedly left.
Hans’s face unconsciously turned red, as if he could still feel the gentle scent of the girl.
As Mirabella walked into the office, the sound of her high heels hitting the floor brought Hans back to reality, his face still a bit warm.
“Your friend’s skirt tore, she might need your help”
“Oh, I saw ”
The comer of Mirabella’s mouth rose; she suddenly felt that their relationship seemed very good. She took out her phone and called Dean, saying, “Go to a nearby clothing store and buy a one–size–fits–all skirt.”
“Tll go buy it.” Hans felt that if he stayed here any longer, his hot cheeks might be discovered by his sister, so he got up and walked out.
“That works.” Mirabella told Dean on the phone, “You don’t need to go; my brother is going.”
Then she called Molly, “Where are you?”
“Bella, I’m really too embarrassed!” Molly was so ashamed that she couldn’t help herself. “I’m now in the ladies‘ restroom.”
Even though she was still tied to Hans’s suit jacket, the skirt was so badly torn that she had no courage to go out and see people.
She was wearing a fong lace skirt today; she didn’t expect it to tear so easily; the hem completely ripped.
She felt like her underwear was exposed; Mr. Collins must have seen it, right?
Thinking of this, she was so ashamed that she wanted to find a hole and crawl in; she should have known better than to buy such a cheap skirt!
“I’ll bring you some clothes right now.”
Mirabella’s words were like a lifesaver, and Molly was extremely happy: “Woo woo woo, you’re so nice.”
“It’s my brother who’s nice; he’s the one buying the clothes.“.
“What?” At this moment, Molly’s face got even hotter!
After a while, Hans came back with the skirt; Mirabella delivered it to the ladies‘ room; Molly changed into it; and when Molly was about to ask Mirabella to return the suit jacket to Mr. Collins, she couldn’t face Hans herself.
Who would have thought that at this moment, Mirabella would have received a phone call and left the ladies‘ room first?
Molly, holding Hans’s suit jacket, júst walked out and saw Hans standing outside. Her face turned red again, like a tomato. Thinking of her falling into his arms over and over again, the embarrassment was indescribable.
