Nana blinked her eyes rapidly.
“Pregnant?”
Serena nodded.
She was stunned. Last time she knew, Serena didn’t have a boyfriend.
Serena sighed. “I know it must have come as quite shocking news.”
“Of course, it is! Who is the guy? When did it start? Have you told him about this?”
“Stop! Stop! One question at a time, okay?”
Nana calmed down and nodded.
Serena took a deep breath. “Well, it all started almost a month back when I took in a guy at a bar whom I had already met before. Do you remember I once said that I met a guy outside the airport?”
“Ah, yes! I was at the hospital at that time, and you had returned from your internship.”
“En. He is that same guy. We met again at the bar, and he was quite drunk. So…”
She began her story of how they started living together. He was a very prim and proper man who was strict with discipline. If she was the troublemaker, then he was the peacemaker.
One day, Serena had forgotten some papers in a hurry, and she had an important client meeting.
It was ten minutes before the presentation when she realized that she had only half of the papers.
Her long time rival Yao Luli immediately noticed her panicked expression. She was also a part of the internship with her. The last exam was a neck to neck competition between Serena and her, which Serena won, and she landed with a significant contract from a big client.
So, Yao Luli hated her. She was jealous. She thought she was more deserving of such a great opportunity and that Serena snatched it away.
Yao Luli purposely spoke in a loud voice. “What happened, Serena? You seem to run into a problem.”
It caught everybody’s attention.
Serena gritted her teeth.
This damn woman! Can’t she leave me alone?
Her boss asked, “Is there a problem, Serena?”
Serena hesitated. “I…I have forgotten some papers at home. It had some designs on it.”
“What!?”
Yao Luli said dramatically, “How could you do this, Serena? Do you know how important that client is? And you messed up?”
She shook her head. “Boss, I had already said that it wouldn’t be a wise choice to give such a huge responsibility to her. We cannot show him incomplete designs. Now we will offend our client because of her and lose our reputation!”
She sneered at Serena. “I think the internship win has gotten into your head. Just because you were chosen once, you have got so overconfident.”
Other designers also started snickering at Serena.
“Boss, I can try to make the design again-“
“And do you think we have time for that?” Yao Luli cut off.
Heh! Like hell, I will let you. You have offered me this deal on a silver platter yourself.
Yao Luli had tried to seduce the boss before getting the chance to present subtly, but he didn’t give her one. Not because he was upright, but he was money-minded.
He realized that Serena’s designs were far better than Yao Luli’s, and he didn’t want to compromise on such a big deal because of some physical pleasures. He thought he would cajole Yao Luli later on with some honeyed words and bed her.
Yao Luli said with big, watery eyes. “Boss, at such a juncture, we cannot afford to lose this deal. I have my designs ready, and they aren’t any inferior to Serena’s. I think I should get a chance.”
Serena said, “Boss I can-“
He interrupted her. “Sorry, you missed this chance because of your carelessness Serena. There are hardly five minutes left. The client will be coming at any moment. We have to hand over to Yao Luli. Get your presentation ready.”
Yao Luli smirked.
“Yes, boss.”

Serena cursed her luck. She had worked so hard on her designs. But she admitted it was her fault for not paying attention.
Forget it. I will have another chance.
“There is no need for that.” A voice came from behind.
Everybody turned and saw a man entering.
Serena widened her eyes.
J-Jianyu?
Yao Luli was stunned, seeing the man before her. She had never seen such God-like existence before. He was the true definition of handsomeness and elegance. She was instantly infatuated with him.
The boss frowned. “Who are you?”
Jianyu gave a side glance but ignored him and walked towards Serena.
The boss felt irritated. Who is he, and how dare he ignore me!? This is my company.
But, the man exuded such a sense of command that his own presence got drowned somewhere in between. He felt like that man was the real boss here.
Jianyu flicked her forehead.
Everybody was dumbfounded.
Serena complained. “Ouch!”
“Here. You forgot them at home.”
Serena read through them and exclaimed. “Ah, these are it! Boss now, I have got my whole file with me! I can present my design to the client.”
Yao Luli dug her nails in her palm. It was no doubt that she was attracted to the man, but seeing the warm expression on his face for Serena seethed her in anger.
That man came for Serena? Are they dating? Why does she only get all the good things?
She didn’t give up. “Boss, I think you should think about it again. Is Serena a good choice? She has already nearly messed up. What if she makes a problem again during the meeting?”
The boss seemed to side with Yao Luli.
Jianyu said indifferently, “Mistakes happen. I have seen her designs. They are amazing. The client will be blind if he doesn’t like them. If you want to lose the chance to win the deal, then be her guests.”
Serena’s heart went ba-thump ba-thump. She felt a sense of contentment when Jianyu praised her work.
Yao Luli saw her chance slipping away. She saw a glass of water, and an idea struck her. She took a step forward and feigned to trip. She knocked out the glass and water spilled on Serena’s designs.
Serena was shocked.
“I-I am so sorry! I tripped.”
“Yao Luli!! You did this on purpose!”
“I said I’m sorry, why won’t you forgive me? It was an accident. Don’t be so harsh.” She made a wronged expression.
Everybody pitied Yao Luli.
“Boss, I will take responsibility. We will present my design, and once the client is satisfied, Serena and I can work together.”
“Like hell, I will do that! You ruined my hard work.” Serena lashed out.
“B-boss…” she shed big tears.
The boss looked at Serena. “This is the only choice we have, Serena. Agree to it.”
“No way-“
“Who is the client?” Jianyu asked.
Obviously, he understood her sabotage. He thought he could secretly talk to the client to help Serena.
After all, who dares to reject Chen Jianyu?
His aura was such that all employees felt an obligation to answer him as if they worked under him.
“Chen Corps.”
