Pampered Wife of Xavier

Chapter 60: Going To Work Together

"What's wrong? Why did it take you so long to answer?"

She then heard some rustling and the voice of Aaron before Mia's voice reached her again,

"Arya... We're in the midst of something. Aaron, be more gentle... Arya... Aaron, you bastard! What's up, Arya?"

The intimate sounds came through the phone. In addition to Mia's gasping, Arya would really be an idiot if she still could not figure out what "in the midst of something" meant!

Her face blushed as she coughed lightly and replied,

"Never mind. It's about the hotel for your wedding. Give me a call later after you're done or you can call me at night too."

She quickly hung up.

Her face was bright red. Although it was not the first time, she had encountered something like this when calling Mia and she had always been able to react calmly, things were different now because Xavier was right beside her. With Mia's loud voice, he must have heard everything they said.

She turned towards him and saw that his expression was calm as usual, so she felt relieved because she thought he must have missed it because he was focused on driving. Suddenly, he said,

"Your friends are pretty intimate with each other."

Arya's face turned even redder — he had heard it after all!

She went quiet for a moment before replying,

"Of course, they've always been close, especially now that they're in their honeymoon period, so they..."

Before she could finish, Xavier thought of something as he glanced at her tomato-like face and he said gently,

"You don't have to be envious of them. I'll satisfy you tonight."

Arya was stunned by his words. She only got what he meant after a moment and she stared at him. It was such a perverted phrase, yet coming out from his mouth, it did not seem too flirty at all. In fact, it was almost natural.

She did not respond to him and turned to face outside the window as his laughter reached her ears.

The car was arriving in Glory World's parking lot. Xavier parked his car at his designated spot. Without hesitating, the woman beside him speedily got out of the car with her briefcase.

"I'll go in first. Take your own briefcase."

She looked around and noticed that there were not many people, so she calmed down and walked into the building.

Employees crowded the office elevators early in the morning since working hours had started. She took a glance at the time and decided to walk straight up to the meeting.

Arya felt a little helpless upon being late on the first work day after the New Year. For the first time, she had broken her year-long streak of being on time for work

"Morning, Director Johns!"

"Hello, Director Johns!"

"Happy New Year, Director Johns!"

...

Everyone seemed to be merry and many of them greeted Arya along the way.

Most of the employees remember this director now after she stood on stage last night. Moreover, she had attended the event as Xavier partner which was intriguing to some of them.

Arya arrived at the elevators and waited with everyone else.

There were several elevators for the employees as well as one for the chairman exclusively. She was waiting in front of an employee lift.
