There was a rumor in the company that Mrs. Lin had an affair with Mr. Lin and Mr. Lin had hidden it
from Mrs. Lin in order to keep their marriage. Now, the company's status of Yolande was not as high as
before. Although she was the financial director of the company, everyone looked at her doubtfully.
Austin didn't care about those rumors, but he valued the feeling of Yolande. So he decided to hold a full
meeting in the company to clarify the rumors personally. After all, the company's poor environment
would affect many people's work progress, especially that of her.
The meeting was set at noon of the next day.
The neon lights in the night were bright and bustling. After work, Yolande tidied up her desk, put on her
coat and picked up the material she was going to take back. She was about to lock the door and return
to the Lin villa.
She locked the door and turned around. With a gentle look, she saw a man who stretched out his big
and strong hand to her. She looked around. There was nobody else in the hallway except her and
Austin.
A tinge of sweetness surged up in her heart. Slightly shy, she placed her small hand in his. He gently
took her hand and looked at her. Involuntarily, both of them had a happy smile on their faces.
Austin held Yolande's hands to take the elevator. After asking for her opinion, he asked the driver to go
back first and took her out.
In the daytime, there were a lot of work in the company. As the finance director, Yolande was also very
busy. Austin only found the evening time to accompany her.
"Where do you want to go? We can go back later tonight. "
With the company of such a handsome and gentle man, every man would feel happy at such a
romantic night.
Looking around, she saw a gourmet shop in the distance. She almost drooled and touched her flat
stomach again.
"I'm hungry. Let's go to the food restaurant."
"Let's get something to eat."
They walked to the food store across the street.
The business in the shop was booming, and it was the time to get off work. Many people would go to
the shop to have a beautiful dinner before going home, and then return home in the soft night.
It was crowded in the restaurant. Finally, they found a seat and sat down. Yolande leaned over the
table and browsed the menu with her head down.
"I want this spicy lobster."
"Braised beef..."
She swept the menu with her slender finger and ordered more than ten dishes. Austin frowned.
"Are you sure you can eat them all with so many shots?"
The man didn't seem to scold her; instead, he looked at her with tenderness in his eyes.
"I'm making up for my stomach," she retorted.
Austin smiled gently, passed the menu to the waiter and ordered two drinks.
Before all the dishes were served, Yolande couldn't wait to eat. Looking at the woman who was
enjoying her food, he was deeply touched. He only hoped that this kind of life could be longer, longer
with her.
Austin took a lobster and shelled it. The fresh meat was put into Yolande's bowl. She enjoyed it and
tried to get used to his service.
After dinner, Austin held her hand and walked around. Yolande grew up in this city and was very
familiar with it. In the past few years, big changes had taken place in this city. With the development of
the city's commercial buildings, she could hardly remember the face of the city in her childhood.
The next noon, Austin called his assistant to inform the company's members. When all the people were
ready, he had something important to say to them.
After receiving the notice, Yolande was very confused. She had never heard from Austin that there had
been something big happened in the company recently. It was an enormous event that summoned all
the companies to gather together.
She went to knock at the door of Austin' office.
"Come in."
She poked her head in, looked at him, and was sure that he was in the office alone, so she closed the
door behind her.
"What's up?"
He was writing and drawing on the paper.
"Yes."
With a thoughtful look, she sat on the couch and crossed her legs.
"Why do you hold a meeting in the company? What do you want to announce?"
She asked curiously.
"Keep it a secret for now, and then you'll know."
Yolande pouted and looked at him reluctantly.
"Go back to your office. It's still working hours."
Austin said in a spoiled voice.
"Okay."
Curious as she was, she could tell from his expression that he didn't want to tell her, so she had to
leave.
In the afternoon, all the members gathered in the company's main hall. It was an unexpected big
gathering, which they had never seen before. With curiosity, they whispered, talking about it in
whispers.
Yolande found a random seat. Since the time when Sunny intentionally spread the rumor that she
cheated on her husband, the expressions on the employees of the company became more ambiguous.
Yolande tried her best to ignore this change. After all, she had endured much more vicious rumors than
this, and she had no other choice but to get used to it.
Austin had not arrived yet, but the people in the hall started to whisper to each other.
"Please be quiet. Mr. Lin will be here soon."
Wearing a brown uniform, the Secretary in high heels walked in through the hall.
When Yolande looked around, Austin showed up in the hall. The Hall fell silent at once.
In a trance, he stood in front of her. Yolande looked up at his tall figure. Before she came to her senses,
he held her hand and led her to the center of the hall. With a broken head, Yolande followed him.
Standing in the center of the hall, the man looked back at the woman with his affectionate eyes.
"Please hold on for ten minutes. I want to clarify one thing right here."
Said Austin.
"There are rumors that my wife cheated on me. Besides, there is also the news in the newspaper. The
rumors have caused much trouble to her."
"I want to clarify that Yolande and I are a couple now since we got married. You must have seen that
Yolande went home with me every night after she worked hard. How could she cheat on me? Some
people are stirring up trouble between us. They buy the news and published a false news. I've
seriously warned them."
