Chapter 14 Interpreter
Monday.
"Miss Murray, have you printed the documents?" Lara had changed into a long dress with a V neck, that had a very deep cut.
"What documents?" Sherry wasn't sure.
"Did you not see the email I sent you just before we finished work on Friday?" Lara raised her brows.
Sherry was startled, Lara was right, she didn't open her inbox anymore, she had no idea that Lara would send her an email at that time. She was still in the office then.
"Miss Murray, you are really not professional. Don't you know that you need to check your work email even if you are not at work? As a
secretary, you haven't looked into your inbox for two whole days?"
“Lam sorry, that was my mistake."
"What should we do now, Mister Rowland will need this document later, and it hasn't even been translated yet!" Lara asked. "Miss Murray, this is a task from Mister Rowland!"
"Lam going to translate it right now.” Sherry had already understood that Lara did this on purpose.
Alice stood up in this moment, "Lara, it's impossible to translate such an amount of documents in such a short time."
"If she cannot finish it, then it will be her responsibility, I have done what I need to do.” Lara put the file on Sherry's table, and left in an arrogant manner.
None of the three have noticed that there was a tall person around the corner witnessing the scene. His lips formed into a smile. This will be interesting! So exciting!
"Sherry, she is clearly giving you trouble!" Alice said in a low voice to Sherry, she had always hated Lara trying to trouble Sherry.
"That's alright.” Sherry smiled bitterly, she knew that Lara was still mad at her because of the coffee incidence.
"This document has 16 pages, you are never gonna finish!” Alice said.
"Ladies, can one of you get me a cup of coffee?" Suddenly a voice said.
Sherry turned around and saw Liam, and when Alice saw him as well, her face blushed at his sight. Sherry on the other side didn't move at all, all she did was to quickly scan through the document.
"Mister Brooks, good morning! I am going to get your coffee, but I don't think it will be as good as Sherry's.” Alice said truthfully, even Mister Rowland liked Sherry's coffee.
"Oh really? Then ask her to do it, you can stay and have a chat with me!" Liam smiled and looked at Sherry, who had her head lowered, "What is it? Does Miss Murray not want to do it?"
Sherry raised her head and saw that Liam was looking at her, and felt a little helpless, “I will go in a second.” Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Liam saw the documents on Sherry's desk. The meeting was in 15 minutes, even if she was a professional translator, it would be impossible to finish this! But Sherry was as calm as ever, which made him really curious.
"Mister Brooks, your coffee.” Sherry brought him his mug.
“Hmm, that's pretty good! Miss Murray, where did you learn to brew coffee?"
"At a cafe.” Sherry replied calmly. She used to work at a cafe for a year, when she was just a teenager. Then she thought about the year she turned 20, it was the darkest year of her life.
"Oh, no wonder.” Liam raised his brows, "What about tea?"
Sherry raised her head and saw the shrewd look on his face, and wondered if he was there to intentionally distract her, she still had a document to translate!
"Am I interrupting your work?" Liam raised his brow, there was no guilt to be seen on his pretty face, on the contrary, he took it very natural.
"Why don't you go and get me a cup of tea as well. I have always liked a mix of western and eastern culture.”
Sherry took a deep breath, stood up, and went to the kitchen to make a cup of team.
"Wow, I never knew that you had the skills to make such good tea!” Liam tried a sip, "This tastes very fresh, the color is nice, and the temperature just right!"
Sherry was not in the mood to listen to his so called praises, she was focused on scanning the document in her hand.
Liam noticed that Sherry didn't reply to him. This woman had a cold complexion, exuding an aura of indifference. She truly was weird. Other women were always surrounding him, but she was looking down her nose at him.
"Mister Rowland!" Suddenly Alice got up and greeted him.
The three of them looked into the same direction, where William was coming from the elevator. When he heard the greeting, he only nodded in response.
He was more serious and cold than other men, he never spoke much, and when he saw Liam, he only threw a look at him, and went towards his office in long steps.
"Mister Rowland, wait, why are you trying to be so cool?" Liam took the cup of coffee and the tea and went towards the president's office.
Sherry made another cup of coffee and brought it to the president's office as well.
"Miss Murray, is the document I need ready yet?" The man sitting at the desk asked while signing papers.
"No!" Sherry said calmly.
"No?"
"Well, Miss Murray's tea is not so bad either!" Liam said sitting on the couch.
"Shut up!" William said to Liam ice cold.
