Boss's Sweet Secretary

He squeezed her face harder until it was distorted.

Jennifer felt pain in her bones and she hissed in pain, causing Hans to quiver.

"Get out." He didn't look at her. Instead, he frowned impatiently, loosened his grip on her cheeks, and ordered her to leave. Jennifer almost stumbled and fell to the ground.

She grabbed hold of the edge of the table just in time to balance herself. She was stunned and her mind was buzzing.

"Alright."

Looking at the torn photo on the ground, she felt a sting in her eyes. A wave of sorrow and heartache welled up, but she forced herself not to cry.

After forcing a smile, she lowered her eyes and started to leave, carefully avoiding the debris on the ground. She closed the door behind her as she left the office.

In the office, Hans stood still. He stared at the photos on the floor and his throat trembled.

After a while, he slowly squatted down and picked up the torn photos one by one.

He put together the photos again by memory.

The girl in the photo still smiled brightly despite the tears on the photo.

Fondling the photo in his calloused hand, Hans had a cold expression on his face, but there was warmth in his eyes.

Jennifer returned to her seat, her eyes full of tears and fatigue.

Rose, her colleague and close friend, poked her arm. "Jennifer? What's wrong? You look sad. Did Mr. Hans scold you just now?"

Jennifer shook her head and forced a smile. "I'm fine."

She was upset by his horrible attitude and behaviour, but he had his reasons.

After all, she only had herself to blame for doing something so unforgivable.

"Don't lie to me. If everything is okay then why are you crying?" Rose did not believe Jennifer, but in order to coax Jennifer, she said, "By the way, I heard that there will be a Jackson Davis concert at the Youth Square on Saturday. I got my hands on two tickets. You should come with me!"

Rose's eyes sparkled and she looked at Jennifer expectantly.

Saturday...

Jennifer paused for a moment before she suddenly remembered that Hans would take her back to the family house on Saturday...

At this delicate moment, she did not dare nor want to disobey him.

Moreover, she had indeed not visited his grandmother for a long time.

"No, Rose, go by yourself. I have something on Saturday, I can't make it." She rejected politely.

"Hey, what is so important?" Rose chattered on and even came closer to her and whispered, "This is Jackson Davis! His concert ticket is hard to come by! Plus, the concert is at night, so it won't affect your other plan! Just do what you need to in the afternoon and you can accompany me to the concert in the evening, okay?"

Jennifer felt that Jackson Davis's name was very familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard this name before.

"Rose..." Jennifer said resignedly.

"Please! I don't care, it's settled! See you on Saturday!" Rose smiled and gestured to her then slipped away on her chair, leaving Jennifer speechless.

Saturday...

Fine, Hans should be taking her back to his family house at around noon. She would chat with his grandmother for a while in the afternoon, and she should be free to go to the concert.

She just hoped that there would be no conflict between the two.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
