Chapter 1148: Chapter 1148: Watching the Drama
The office door was closed.
From the moment Anna stepped into the office, the other employees began speculating whether she would succeed in hooking up with George River or be kicked out.
The majority guessed she would succeed.
After all, Anna was considered the number one beauty in the company, rivaling even most celebrities in looks.
But there were also those who said she would be kicked out.
The ones guessing she’d be kicked out were mostly women employees.
They had no other reason except that they had all seen Hannah’s face on television.
"There’s always someone better than you, and skies beyond skies above, and though beauty is subjective, between Hannah Winter and Anna Lee, I believe most people would choose Hannah Winter."
"Agree, even as a woman, I prefer Hannah Winter. And as for Anna Lee’s character, if Director River really could fall for her, our company might as well be doomed."
"Don’t talk like that, our Director River could even fancy Tiffany Lynch, so what’s wrong with liking Anna Lee!"
The last remark was said in jest.
After that, everyone covered their mouths and started to laugh.
Getting a chance to gossip in the office was definitely the best way to relieve stress.
But before they could fully partake in the gossip, a shout of anger came from the tightly shut office door.
"Get out, you think you can come near me with what you are!"
Everyone was stunned, and before they could react, the office door was flung open from the inside.
More accurately, it was hit open by someone from the inside.
Anna stumbled out, eventually falling onto the carpet by the door, her skirt covered in coffee stains, her makeup smeared beyond recognition.
Tears still falling, she lay on the ground, looking up at the man inside the office, her tone begging, "President, President, listen to my explanation, I like you, I really do, won’t you give me a chance?"
Crying, her teary eyes a picture of misery, she presented a stark contrast to her normally assertive personality.
Anna still clung to hope, trying to invoke the man’s sympathy with her vulnerable side.
She can’t fail, she’s so beautiful, isn’t she?
What man wouldn’t want her?
Thinking thus, she moved forward a bit more, boldly wrapping her arms around the man’s legs.
Seeing that the man didn’t push her away, Anna thought he had softened, eager to please, "What I said is true, President, I don’t expect to be your girlfriend, I just hope you give me a chance to stay by your side, you can do whatever you want with me."
George River looked down disdainfully at the messy woman before him, his dislike unabashed, yet the corners of his mouth lifted in a curve, "Do whatever I want with you?"
George River’s face, without a doubt, was impressive.
Ever since he officially joined the River Clan, there had been many employees who dreamt of a "domineering President falling in love with me" scenario.
Women and not a few men.
After all, who wouldn’t love a handsome and wealthy president?
But eventually, they came to doubt the President’s taste, and their fantasies began to shatter.
A few employees snuck around, gossiping in secret, almost thought the two were about to start something right there.
If that really happened, they would have enough gossip to last until the next year.
Caught off-guard for a moment, Anna ignored her ruined makeup, struck her sexiest pose, touching her shoulder strap and slowly starting to slide it down...
"President..."
Ignoring the disgust in George River’s eyes, she called out tenderly, "President, give me a chance, I won’t be worse than Hannah Winter. What’s so good about those celebrities in the entertainment circle, who knows how many people have played with... Ah!"
