CHAPTER 115 THE POWER OF ROSES

There is no expression on Lucien’s cold face, and he just looking at Wendy coldly.

“President, it’s not what you think!” Wendy shouts in horror and deeply shocked. She can’t believe that

Lucien will fire her for such a small thing.

Even if without that night, her father is a senior executive of the company. Tot for the monk’s sake, but

for the Buddha’s. This little girl just came to the company for one day!

Looking at Wendy’s distorted face, Lucien frowns impatiently and says in a stern voice, “Go pack up

and leave, now!”

Wendy’s tears suddenly come out, and she begs, “President, I know I’m wrong! I won’t dare to do it

anymore!” She falls at the side of Lucien’s feet.

“Get out! Now!” Lucien hates the woman who keeps pestering most. Her voice can’t be cold any more.

Wendy knows that there is no room for retention any more. The tears in her eyes are rolling, and the

cold light is shining in her eyes. Looking at Lucien, her shaking hands slowly closed into fists, and she

says, “Is Nina Morrison so important to you?”

“Get out!” Lucien shouts coldly.

Wendy’s venomous eyes sweep Nina’s face and makes her shudder!

It’s just a small scald. Even if Wendy was intentional, the punishment is too heavy for her.

Is he trying to avenge me? However, she does not need such revenge!

Nina looks up at him with complicated eyes.

After another three days, Nina sits at her seat to process the documents. She doesn’t finish typing half

a line, so she hears Sunny’s excited voice: “Nina! Are you so lucky in adventures with men?”

Nina turns her head in surprise, “What?”

With a smile on her face, Sunny walks up to her with a thumping voice. Then she says with her

beautiful face in mysterious, “Nina, tell me, which rich man did you hook up with?”

“What are you talking about?” Nina’s heart shrinks. Is her relationship with Lucien discovered by

Sunny?

It’s impossible. She is usually very careful. It’s impossible for Sunny to find out.

Sunny magically takes out a bunch of beautiful roses from behind and says, “The florist just sent them!

Your name is on the card!”

Who sent the flowers? Nina is also a little confused.

She hurriedly stands up to receive the rose. The strong fragrance comes to her nose. There is a

sentence on the pink card, “Nina, isn’t it a surprise?”

The brushstrokes in this painting exhibit force and vigour characteristic. It’s Lucien’s handwriting!

Surprised? What a surprise! What a naive man Lucien is!

She’s not a little girl anymore, how can a bunch of roses surprise her?

“Ah ah ah...”

“Whoa, whoa, whoa...”

High decibel screams of female colleagues outside come one by one.

Nina rubs her aching ears, frowns and looks at the door. Suddenly, she is stunned. A man in the

uniform of the florist comes here with a big red heart made of roses.

The big red heart is so huge, almost 2 meters high, and the spacious office is crowded immediately.

“Wow, the vulgar plot of the idol plays is staged live! How much does such a huge bundle of roses

cost?” Sunny stands beside Nina and marvels. Her white face is full of admire.

Nina is speechless.

“Miss, there are 9999 roses in total. Please sign to acknowledge the receipt.” The florist worker takes

out the list for her to sign.

“I’m sorry, but I refuse to sign.” Nina also stuffs the rose bouquet in her hand back to the florist worker,

“Please take all these roses back.”

What is Lucien going to do? Didn’t he go on a business trip? Why does he have time to send her

roses?

“Miss, please sign for it! The buyer has already paid.” The staff of the flower shop thinks Nina doesn’t

want to pay.

“I don’t care. Take them out!” Nina’s face is cold.

What does he think she is? He is intentional to make her can’t survive in the company. Great, she

became the focus of the whole company again!

She doesn’t want to be like this! She just wants to go to work peacefully and have a light life! Does he

understand or not!

“Nina? Are you stupid? There are so many roses. It’s good to put them in the office!” Sunny stops Nina

excitedly, grabs a pen and sign for Nina. Then she says to the florist worker, “I signed for her! You can

leave. Go, go!”

The florist worker rushes out of the office like a fugitive, afraid that she would regret next second.

“Sunny!” Nina glares at Sunny angrily.

Sunny is her best friend, who should know her stubborn temper of saying no is just no. She even dares

to receive the flowers!

“Oh, don’t be angry! If you don’t like them, let me have them!” Sunny cheerfully coaxes Nina, but says

so, her body doesn’t move at all. She looks at Nina and do gossip, “Tell me! Who sent the flowers?

Why don't you take them?”

Why don’t I take them?

Nina smiles bitterly. If Sunny knows who sent the flower, she would not ask such a question.

Nina didn’t know that Lucien is the combination of angel and devil in the mind of employees until she

came to Gray’s Group.

He was said to be an angel, exactly because of his handsome face; said he was a devil, because her

work style has been too cold and domineering.

Almost no one can stand his eccentricity. The secretaries around him has changed a lot. Sunny is the

one who stays the longest.

“Nina! Who sent them to you? Tell me on the sly, I promise I won’t tell anyone!” Sunny is still pleading

with Nina. Her blood of gossip is burning.

It’s an arrogant man who is old, short, bald, with beer belly, and can’t cover up his body odor with no

matter much perfume.” Nina says with her teeth gnashing.

Then she turns around and smiles at Sunny, “How about I give his phone number to you since you

want these roses so much?”

“Aha! I have something else to do. Bye!” Nina starts running away and pretends to be busy.

“Ha ha...” Nina laughs at Sunny’s expression.

Nina sits at the table and thinks about it. The she takes her cell phone and goes to the rest room and

dials Lucien’s phone number.

The dull bell rings for a long time, then a strange female voice starts to ring from mobile phone, “Hello!

Who’s that?”

Nina suddenly froze, and inexplicable feelings pour down her heart.

Like a basin of cold water splashes from her head to foot. It is so cold that she could hardly speak.

He’s only been on a business trip for a few days. So soon he has a new lover?

In that case, why did he send her roses? Let her be a joke of the whole company?

She should have known for a long time that Lucien is such a man who is always so casual with the

relationship of men and women. There are so many women he has been had sex with. She is nothing

but a toy when he is bored.

So funny, and she’s still thinks he is serious to her.

Nina can’t say a word to the mobile phone. She is about to hang up. The woman on the other said of

the phone talks again. Her voice is very stylized, “Is it Miss Morrison? President Grey is in a meeting

now. It’s inconvenient for him to answer the phone. Do you need me to remind him to call you back?”

Does this woman know about her?

And is she so generous to help her communicate with Lucien?

Nina says in amazement, “Excuse me, who is speaking?”

“I'm Mr. Gray’s secretary in Shanghai.” The woman on the phone chuckled and politely explained, “Mr.

Gray’s cell phone is out of power, and he just let me charge it. Please don’t misunderstand, Miss This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Morrison.”

What a reasonable explanation. She speaks so skillful as if she has explained it many times before.

Did she deal with a lot of women like this?

Suddenly Nina thinks of Sunny’s joke, “It’s necessary to deal with all kinds of women for him as

Lucien’s secretary.”

Nina is silent.

“Nina!” Sunny runs to the rest room with a cup. “Hurry up! Will you take part in it or not! I with S.T.

company organize a big blind date tonight. You must join us!

After that, she runs away in a gust of wind and goes to lobby other colleagues.

Sunny said that her biggest dream is to get married before she is 25 years old. So, for all kinds of

dating activities, she never misses. In her words, rather kill the wrong, not let go!

Nina’s mouth curls helplessly, then she says to the mobile phone, “President Grey is in a meeting, isn’t

he? Then I’ll call back later.”

The office of Gray Group in Shanghai is located in a prime location on the bank of Huangpu River. The

president’s office is on the top floor. The curtain of the floor window is opened by remote control. The

scenery of the whole city is collected at the bottom of eyes.

It’s six o’clock in the afternoon after Lucien reading the documents at his hand.

Opening the drawer, there is a diamond cartoon character doll in the drawer, with straight black hair,

small white face, small sharp chin, and two large black crystal eyes shining with dazzling light.

This is a cartoon doll that Lucien specially custom made for Nina in Swarovski. The doll stands on the

table playfully, which is very different from the cold atmosphere of the president’s office. It is very eye-

catching.

The first time he saw a similar cartoon figure in the show window in Chicago, he thought of Nina. Girls

like this kind of shiny thing, and Nina will certainly like it too.

By the way, next time he’ll make his own cartoon doll, and let Nina take it with her!

His thin, sexy lips can’t help drawing up a smile curve.

“Bambang--” The door of the office is knocked twice.

“Come in.” He covers his thoughts and speaks coldly.

An intellectual woman about 30 years old stepped in. It is his secretary in Shanghai Branch, Miss

Zhang.

“Mr. Grey, your coffee.” Secretary Zhang puts his hot coffee on his desk and reports the itinerary by the

way, “At nine o’clock in the evening, you will have a meeting dinner with several general managers of

Imperial Real Estate Company. I have booked June Young Hotel in West Ring.”

“Umm.” Lucien takes up the coffee cup and sips it and says.

“And…Miss Morrison and other three misses ask you call them back when you are free.” The secretary

pushed her black frame glasses to report his personal affairs.

Lucien is the president of Asia Pacific region of Gray’s Group. He is young, vigorous and extremely

handsome. There are never fewer women around him.

Secretary Zhang sometimes feels that she is not a secretary, but his nanny and elder. She also has to

deal with all kinds of relationships for him.

Lucien stops drinking coffee and asks, “Which Miss Morrison?”

“Nina Morrison.” Secretary Zhang couldn’t help but look at Lucien curiously. There are four young

ladies, but he only asks about Miss Morrison. It seems that President Grey loves Miss Morrison very

much.

Nina Morrison?

His eyebrows are gently raised up. She would call him on her own initiative. It seems that those roses

are working. So, roses are the most destructive to women, and Nina is not immune to vulgarity.

Last time, she didn’t feel much about the blue lover. It must be because there was only one

handful.
