Chapter 2: Chapter ２

Fortunately, all the reporters didn't pay attention to me, so I had a little time to adjust my mood and completed the work smoothly.

The public relations department was well prepared and all departments cooperated well, so the new product launch event was held satisfactorily.

As soon as the new CEO and his group left, Joseph Pratt squeezed over and said, "Jane Dench, don't think I didn't notice that. You did it on purpose just now and successfully attracted the attention of our new CEO."

I frowned slightly, turned around and said to Ammy Winslet, "manager, I'm going back to the sales department."

Looking at the back of Jane Dench, Joseph Pratt stamped her feet in anger. "How could she ignore me? Why is she so arrogant?"

Ammy Winslet glared at Joseph Pratt and said, "work hard, or you won't work anymore."

Glaring at Jane Dench, Joseph Pratt held back her anger and said, "I see, cousin."

As soon as I returned to the office of the sales department, I heard that colleagues in the same department were discussing about the new CEO. They were gossiping about whether the new CEO was single or not, and several female colleagues were blushing.

I didn't get involved in it. I finished my work with trepidation and didn't leave the company until everyone in the office left. I really didn't know how to face him.

Ben Roberts' apartment was not far from the company. There were only three bus stops, and I would arrive there in about half an hour. In order to avoid meeting Ben Roberts, I not only walked home, but also went to the supermarket to buy vegetables and slowly returned to the apartment. Unexpectedly, Ben Roberts had just arrived.

"You are back." I walked over and tried to greet him in the most common way.

"Okay." Ben Roberts looked back at me with an indifferent expression.

All of a sudden, he reached out a hand to me. Instinctively, I took a small step back to keep a distance from him.

"I'll take it." He said lightly. He didn't get angry because I accidentally kept a distance from him. Instead, he casually took the bag in my hand.

I felt my face burning. He just wanted to help me carry the bags, but I was lost.

Back home, Ben Roberts put the items into the kitchen and said indifferently, "I'm not good at cooking. Thank you for your help tonight."

"Go ahead with your work. I'll handle the cooking." I've been rented an apartment for the past 2 years, so I'm good at cooking.

"Thank you!" He said lightly.

"You're welcome." I forced a smile and smiled awkwardly.

We are already a couple, but we get along like two strangers.

When they were having dinner, they were also silent, and the atmosphere was dull for a moment.

I tried several times to find a topic to talk about, but all failed. After dinner, Ben Roberts offered to wash the dishes. I nodded with a smile. After all, it felt good to have someone do the housework together. Although it could be seen from the clumsy look of Ben Roberts that he had never done such a thing before, it was normal. After all, he was a CEO of a company. How could he do such a thing.

After cleaning up the kitchen, Ben Roberts returned to the living room and saw me in a daze. "Jane Dench."

"Ah..." Ben Roberts called out my name, feeling a little shy.

Ben Roberts sat down on the sofa on the other side and said, "I have something to talk to you."

"Okay." I replied. I also want to have a talk with him and take this opportunity to make it clear. I really don't know him.

Ben Roberts nodded and said slowly, "Jane Dench, I'm in the company today..."

"I understand. We have a clear distinction between public and private interests." I interrupted Ben Roberts before he could finish his words.

Ben Roberts said calmly, "I didn't mean to hide my work from you."

"I know." I nodded and said, "it's because I don't want to bring my personal life to work." It took me 2 years to achieve my current achievements in this company. I still want to rely on my own efforts to continue to climb up. I don't want to change because of Ben Roberts.

Looking at the firm look, Ben Roberts said, "I just took over the company. After I finish my work, I want to visit my parents in law with you." He sounded calm as if he had expected that the Jane Dench hadn't mentioned it to his family.

"No, thanks." I refused directly, but I felt that my attitude was a little bad, so I quickly explained, "something happened between me and my family, and I haven't contacted them for a long time. Let's talk about it later."

Home? 2 years ago, that house was no longer mine. I can't go back anymore.

"Jane Dench." Ben Roberts called out my name and added, "I'm your family now."

These words were not honeyed words, but made me cry.

"We are a couple now. I sincerely want to spend the rest of my life with you."

I didn't expect Ben Roberts to say that. I was stunned again. Looking up at him and meeting his sincere eyes, I said, "I have also made up my mind to live with you for the rest of my life."

Ben Roberts stared at me for a few seconds and said, "then Jane Dench, can you promise me not to break up with me easily no matter what happens?"

"Okay!" I will try my best to be a qualified wife. "
