Teresa washed as quickly as she can. She herself found the present situation intolerable. She couldn't
imagine how Enrique could smile at her like that.
What's more embarrassed was that she seemed to have slept with him in his arms last night!
At the thought of this, Teresa immediately poured cold water on her face again.
If she kept thinking about it, she might not know how to face him later. Enrique might even laugh at her.
So during that limited time, Teresa cleaned herself, changed clothes and put on makeup as fast as she
could.
However, when she finished all the procedures, she found that there was no need to worry at all
because Enrique hadn't come back at all! And he was not at the door either!
Ordering a takeout could get him lost. Teresa didn't know what to say to Enrique.
Teresa looked for her phone everywhere but did not find it. Then she suddenly remembered that those
kidnappers had already thrown it.
That's great. She couldn't even get in touch with Enrique now.
When Teresa was sitting on the edge of the bed watching TV, Enrique came back with a takeout.
"Why are you so free? Come and eat."
"I am eager to know the time right now. My time is completely in a mess. And how about my phone?"
Teresa looked at Enrique in a relaxed manner, and her impatience and anxiety seemed to disappear.
Instead, she felt a sense of easy and peaceful that he had infected. Teresa was a little surprised by this
strange transformation of herself.
"What are you thinking about?"
Enrique looked at Teresa who was lost in thought. He shook his hand in front of her eyes. He took out a
new cell phone from his pocket and put it in front of Teresa.
"We've found the old one, but it was broken and cannot be used anymore. I have arranged for
someone to fix it for you. It's eight o'clock in the morning. Are you free after breakfast? Would you like
to accompany me to interrogate those people?"
"Who said I'm fine? I have to go to the studio. There were only a few days left before the deadline of
our design draft. Claire would collapse if she had to work alone! Besides, I don't want to see those
people anymore!"
As soon as he heard Teresa say this, Enrique suddenly remembered that he hadn't told her about the
temporary change at the company. And he didn't know how to explain it to her.
What's more, Teresa and Yilia were incompatible with each other like water and fire. If they met in the
studio, nobody knew what would happen...
"What's wrong? Is there anything you haven't told me?"
Teresa made a casual guess, but found Enrique's expression suddenly becoming surprised.
Did she guess it right? Was there really something Enrique didn't tell her?
Teresa's heart hung in the air. Often, all these hidden facts were not good news!
"Is there anything wrong with me? Was it... Cancer? I don't want to die yet! I have a lot of things to do!"
When Enrique heard this, he couldn't resist laughing. Sure enough, the little fool began to get confused
again.
"You have a great imagination What are you thinking about all day?"
"How can I be a designer without imagination? Tell me what happened!"
Teresa was not really worried about getting cancer or anything like that. Although she clearly knew and
believed that her life would not be as dramatic as a drama, she was really worried about something.
She was worried that something about Claire and the design.
After all, the disappearance of her was really a fragile point for the cooperation between TH Group and
Claire. If they could not complete the task smoothly and hand in the draft, she really could not imagine
the consequences.
The wariness in Enrique's eyes increased when he saw the fear in Teresa's eyes. But on second
thought, he thought it would be better to tell her the truth.
"During your disappearance, our company arranged Yilia to take over your job."
Hearing the news, Teresa was stunned all of a sudden.
Yilia? It was her again! It was like raising a child and then one day the child was suddenly taken away.
The taste was beyond words.
That was to say, the purpose of the phone call from Yilia that day was to show off?
"Enrique! I want to ask you whether it was you to order and arranged Yilia to take the place of me or
not? Have you already arranged everything?"
Teresa's serious question amused Enrique. But seeing that she was not kidding, he answered her
seriously.
"I said it, but it was my father who gave the order. I was extremely worried about you and trying to
figure out the way how to find you as soon as possible, so I was not in the mood to arrange any work at
that time! But what do you mean by that?"
Furrowing her eyebrows, Teresa told him that Yilia was calling her that day, which confused Enrique a
lot too. If Yilia had planned to take the place of her before...
Enrique got to his feet and headed for the door without even talking to Teresa.
"Where are you going? I will go with you!" Teresa immediately put down the things in her hands and
chased after him. Seeing his serious face, she was embarrassed to ask any more questions.
Finally, the car stopped in front of a villa.
"You can look around this villa as you like. I'll go to find someone and come back to you later. But
remember, you must take your cell phone with you."
After saying this, Enrique left without looking back.
To put it bluntly, he still felt her getting in the way! Damn it!
Teresa grimaced at Enrique's back, then turned around and smashed into a sturdy chest. Teresa stared
at the man in front of her as rubbed her head.
He had big eyes and thick eyebrows. His typical Oriental face had the blue eyes and blond hair of a
westerner. Dressed in casual clothes, he looked very casual.
"I'm Ares Lu. Nice to meet you."
His voice was magnetic and comforting. And the innocent smile on his face set off Teresa's guard.
What's more, Enrique had told her that she could look around the villa as she liked. She didn't think
someone here could abduct her.
Teresa was really scared of the kidnapping right now. She didn't want to experience it again.
"Nice to meet you. I am Teresa Gu."
"Are you the girlfriend of Enrique? I've never seen him bring any women here."
Ares Lu's straightforward question shocked Teresa. He might have been living in England all the time?
Otherwise, why else would he speak so directly?
Or he was just too curious about it?
But was Teresa the girlfriend of Enrique? How could she answer this question?
If she said yes, but they didn't say anything like they were together. If she said no, what about those
between her and Enrique?
Teresa didn't know what to say, so she just stood there blankly and looked at Ares Lu.
