Hello, CEO! Don’t Play With Me!

Giselle let Harvey and Justin face the reporters. It was time for the press conference held by SEO as the organizer of the event. She chose to sit at the place reserved for SEO models and began to enjoy the meal. It was true what Harvey said about food intake for their bodies. Don’t let her drop at the wrong time. Brina had given an updated schedule after the successful show.

It’s so busy that Giselle feels like she won’t have time for herself later. But no matter, there was still free time after this event. Which she would use to be with Justin, as he had promised.

“Maya is here,” Brina said as she took a seat next to Giselle. Her face looked displeased with the glare directed at the woman she was talking about.

“What’s wrong?” asked Giselle as she took a big bite of the salad on her plate.

“Don’t you know how Harvey got into SEO? Even though it’s relatively easy, Maya will always give Harvey a hard time.”

Giselle chuckled. “Justin would have taken care of it easily.”

Brina sighed softly. “When it comes to a third person, it’s not as easy to pressure someone like when Justin pressured Jilly, Giselle.”

Giselle’s mouthful stopped slightly. She let out a long sigh before finally speaking. “I’m sure Harvey has a specific reason for doing such a thing. Although I’ve only just gotten to know him, I have full confidence that Harvey acted using logic. There’s something he’s after that he has to pawn off his feelings.”

Brina looked at Giselle with a look of disbelief. “You… sound mature, Giselle.”

“You think I’m a kid?” Giselle scowled. “I know, we’re far apart in age, but it’s not impossible for me to think that maturely, right?”

Brina laughed. “Alright, I understand.” She rubbed Giselle’s shoulder lightly. “I’m sorry.”

Giselle was still sulking.

“I don’t have any chocolate to put you in a better mood.” Brina still maintained the laughter on her lips. Seeing Giselle still sulking was a pleasure for her. “Oiya, have you met Andrew?”

At first, Giselle’s face was sulking but there was still a smile on it. But when Brina mentioned Andrew’s name casually, the smile disappeared. It was replaced with an inexplicably flat face. “Not yet. I guess he’s busy with his fiancée, right?”

“Fiancée?” asked Brina with a look of surprise. “The girl with Andrew is his fiancée?”

Giselle shrugged.

“Are you sure?”

“Harvey told me.” She went back to enjoying the salad still on her plate. “I don’t care.”

Brina’s eyes sought out the spot where the man named Andrew Kingston sat in one of the other corners. Beside him, sat an elegant-looking woman wearing a black dres. The one Brina thought was an assistant or someone from The Collage who was asked to accompany the man.

“But… I’m not familiar with that woman’s face.” Brina rubbed the tip of her chin lightly. “Who, huh?”

“Her name is Fania. She was a resource person when the Miss World finalists visited the Ministry of Arts and Culture. The owner of one of the most famous art galleries in Manhattan.”

“Ah, right.” Brina snapped her fingers. “Fania Langham.” Then Brina’s eyes seemed to look at Giselle with a slight squint of suspicion. “But how did Harvey know that the two of them were engaged? There’s no news of their engagement in the media. You know, Langham and Kingston are big names. There’s no way an engagement ceremony wouldn’t be publicized.”

Brina’s words left Giselle speechless. “That’s right.” Her spoon fell back on her plate. She finished her dinner, especially since her stomach had also been filled. “But even if the news is true, I don’t care. What business is it of mine?”

“Are you jealous?” guessed Brina casually.

“Think before you speak, Brina.” Giselle wiped the corner of her lips in case there was any salad dressing left. “Can I come back quickly?”

Brina’s brow furrowed deeply. “You don’t want to accompany Harvey until the end of the program?”

“I’m tired.” Giselle prepared to leave Brina and return to the hotel. The fatigue that set in when work piled up was starting to eat away at her. Giselle often felt that way. while working, her stamina was always at its peak. Until the end of the show, she never looked tired. But once it was all over, she felt like her body was crumbling and she needed to sleep all day.

That’s what she felt again in the mini-mala. She wanted to enjoy the night with Harvey and Justin. Celebrating the success and how Monochrome was a smash hit caught the attention of many fashion observers. And Irena shared some equally astonishing news. Many of the products offered by SEO were sold out. Even the waiting list for certain designs almost equaled the record that Giselle set.

No, he wasn’t. He’s not jealous. Instead, he was proud and happy to be a part of Monochrome and happy that Harvey could bring what Justin wanted to the world.

“Just tell them the celebration has been postponed to tomorrow. I don’t want to miss it,” Giselle said with a big grin. “I’ll go home first.”

“Nico will accompany you to the hotel lobby, Giselle.” Brina picked up her cell phone. She quickly contacted the person who would accompany Giselle to the hotel safely. However… “I don’t think you can leave right away,” Brina said in a whisper.

“What’s wrong with that?” Giselle frowned in surprise. “Justin’s not done yet, is he?”

Brina shook her head quickly. “Andrew walked over.”

Giselle’s eyeballs rolled irritably. “It doesn’t necessarily lead here. After all, I’m not the only one he wants to meet during this banquet, right?” She shifted her seat again. “Give them all my regards. I’ll wait for Nico in the lobby.”

Brina couldn’t hold Giselle back for too long. Brina quickly contacted Nico because Giselle would not break her will. Even so, her eyes were not released to continue paying attention to the man who looked dashing in his navy suit. Andrew’s smile occasionally appeared to greet several people related to his business. Being involved in the entertainment world makes Brina understand that a banquet is not just an ordinary dinner event.

Sometimes these banquets are created to meet each other and show influence in the world of economics and business. And the aim is to expand their influence with certain cooperation. And usually Brina and Giselle are at the center of the business banquet for SEO purposes. In a way, Giselle was the main instigator of clients approaching Justin and offering many contracts full of nominal benefits. And now, with the addition of Harvey.

“I’ll bet Andrew came to this table,” Brina murmured. In front of her, the zuppa soup was untouched. Her hunger had been replaced with satiety due to her extensive work tonight.

“Good evening,” Andrew said with a faint smile.

Brina was right. Andrew must have gone to the table where Giselle was. But unfortunately, the girl chose to leave.

“Evening.” Brina responded with a friendly smile. “I guess you’re a little late if you want to meet Giselle. The girl chose to go home. Probably exhausted.”

“Exhausted?” asked Andrew worriedly.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

“Giselle’s schedule in recent times has been rather draining. Don’t you know that?”

Brina’s words were responded to with a soft chuckle. The face that originally looked upset vanished slowly and changed to a flat mode. As if the worry should not exist. Her hand reached for something from one of her blazers. “Please tell Justin this too…” He closed his eyes for a moment. his other free hand was clenched tightly. “Giselle.”

The frown on Brina’s forehead grew. “What’s this?” She was not blind to what was written on the elegant black and red sheet. But… didn’t Brina know that the man in front of her had approached Giselle personally? And this invitation?
