Chapter 74
Hug Me for a While
“I… I know that it was his fault. He was greedy for money and purchased bad ingredients. But, look, none of our
employees have gone to the hospital because of this, and the company has also compensated them. Could you
please show him your mercy and let him
go?”
“How?” Paige asked.
“We can just let it go. He can provide the employees with half a year… No, one year’s food for free. Don’t worry, I
will definitely keep an eye on him and pay attention to the ingredient quality. I won’t allow him to mess around
again!”
“But it exactly happened under your nose, Mr. Ingram.”
Paige fell her gaze on Nigel, with a little sense of aggressiveness, “Don’t you feel you should also be responsible for
it at all, Mr.
Ingram?”
“Yes, I am indeed responsible…” Nigel lowered his head. He would never come to beg this little girl in front of him if
he could pull
some strings this time.
“If you think that it is okay to feed our employees with food additives, why don’t you join them? Eat with our
employees for a year, and
we will talk about this again.”
“You must be kidding. Ms. Tate…”
Nigel smiled fawningly and said, “One year… Then Gary has to stay in prison for a year too.”
“Don’t you think it is a better way?”
Nigel dared not to make a sound.
“At least it is healthier for both of you.”
Nigel was completely speechless.
“You are the vice president of the company, but you didn’t reflect on yourself after Gary was caught. You never
considered how to” compensate our employees. Instead, you are trying your best to make Gary clean again, just
because he is your relative. I don’t know how you have the nerve to show your face and tell me this b*llsh*t. If you
want me to solve this in your way, the answer is no.”
Hearing Paige’s firm tone, Nigel felt desperate. But now that Gary was caught, it was very likely that he would get
involved too. Thinking of it, Nigel had to bite the bullet and continue
“Ms. Tate, I came here today because Gary’s family and mine are particularly close. My eighty-nine-year-old mother

“His family also came to beg me. I promise. I wouldn’t come to you if I had options….
“We just can’t bear to see Gary suffer…
Nigel’s voice tailed off.
“So you can bear to see your employees suffer?”
Paige raised her eyes and asked.
“…”
“There is no room for negotiation, Mr. Ingram. You should think more about yourself. Mr. Bowman is your relative.
Since something like this happens, the headquarters will definitely investigate it”
When Nigel heard this, he was completely desperate. All his confidence was gone, and he slightly hunched his
shoulders when he left dejectedly.
Paige enjoyed the dessert that Martin bought when she dealt with work. Soon, it was time to get off work.
It was getting dark
Martin took her to have a candlelight dinner. He seemed to have thousands of words to talk to her, but in the end,
he said nothing and
silently ordered her favorite dishes.
“What’s the matter?”
Seeing the hesitant look on his face, Paige was somewhat puzzled.
“Don’t you. Don’t you like that bracelet?”
Martin looked at Paige’s beautiful eyes and seemed to be a little depressed. “Or… Don’t you like me?”
Paige was confused.
“Did I annoy you because I show up in front of you too frequently these days?”
Martin said as he picked up the hot towel and gently wiped the sauce on the corner of her lips. He eagerly waited
for her answer
Only then did Paige notice that she had forgotten to wear the bracelet today.
“If you don’t like me, then I will work harder to make you like me. Please give me a little more time.
Paige was still confused.
“If you don’t like that bracelet, I will design a new one for you.”
Paige was shocked.
“Did you design that bracelet?”
She was surprised.
For Martin, designing a bracelet was not difficult at all. He had a talent for design since he was a child. According to
Rhys, if Martin chose to be a designer, he would become a legend in the fashion world!
Martin’s talent in design had once caused a sensation internationally.
“Yes.”
Martin looked into her eyes with a serious and solemn expression. “Is it a problem with the bracelet or with me? If
both, I will do
better in the future.”
Paige finally smiled and said, “That bracelet is beautiful. I like it very much. I just accidentally spilled some juice on it
in the afternoon. When I went to wash my hands, I took it off and forgot it in the bathroom.”
So he suddenly became so cautious just because he thought that she didn’t like him anymore.
“What about me?”
Martin stared at her and asked her in a concerned tone. “Do you like me?”
How could he ask that?
“Do you like me?”
“Kind of.”
“Can we have dinner now?” Paige smiled.
Martin touched her face affectionately. All the worries in his eyes disappeared and were replaced with sweetness
and happiness.
Paige said that she “kind of” liked him.
In other words, his performance had not been bad recently.
Martin smiled and started to feed her.
“I can eat by myself”
“Do you want me to feed you with a spoon, or..” Martin suddenly leaned closer and pecked at her lips, as if hinting
at something.
“You…” How dare he!
After the meal, Martin sent her back to the company. He got out of the car and opened the car door for her. “I will
go up with you.”
“The company’s production line is operated twenty-four seven.”
If he went up with her, they might be seen by the people in the production department.
Seeing that Martin was somewhat unhappy, Paige said helplessly, “Wait for me here. I will go get the bracelet.”
“Then hug me for a while.”
Paige was speechless.
“Give me a hug and I’ll let you go up.”
Martin opened his arms and asked for a hug like a child.
Seeing this man, who was usually cold and heartless in front of others, Paige felt even more helpless. In order not
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmto be seen by others, she reached out and gave him a quick hug.
Unexpectedly, Martin embraced her into his arms as soon as her hands touched his arms. “When will you tell
them?”
“Tell them what?”
“When will you tell the world that I am your fiancé?”
Paige was a little speechless. “Is that so important?”
“It is.”
Martin held her tighter and asked, “It is very important to me. Does anyone in the company want to pursue you?”
Paige was amused by his words. She had turned the company upside down recently. Not to mention men, even
women in the company dared not approach her.
“No.”
“Great”
Martin smelled the fragrance of her body. “I’m so happy. You are a married woman, so you have to keep a distance
from others.”
Paige was lost for words.
“Do you hear me?”
“Yes, yes. I’m going up now.”
Paige did not want to cuddle with him on the road since it would create a bad impression.
She entered the company and got to her office. When she pushed the door open and walked in, she saw the
bracelet was still lying on
the desk.
Thinking of what he said tonight, Paige felt warm in her heart.
In order to not keep Martin waiting, Paige put on the bracelet and left the office. Just as she was about to enter the
elevator, she suddenly heard some noises coming from the emergency exit.
It sounded like someone was arguing and complaining.
5/5
Get Bogs
Paige stepped lightly and pushed open the door of the emergency exit. Only then did she notice that the sound
came from the lower
floors.
Because there was an echo in the staircase, the voice sounded louder.
