Chapter 1442
Cecilia didn't hold Larru's arm, but she walked close to him.
Her subtle fragrance wafted into Larry's nose. It differed from the perfume that Lulu wore. Lulu's smelled cheap,
while Cecilia's came from premium sandalwood.
It was subtle and sweet, just like her.
Cecilia was classier and better-looking than Lulu in all aspects.
"Watch out!" Larry yelled. There was a bump right ahead of them, and he stopped Cecilia from taking a step
further. She had been so close to tripping and falling.
When Cecilia heard Larry’s warning, she stopped dead in her tracks and patted her chest in lingering fear.
Thankfully, she stopped right in time. Otherwise, she would have fallen flat on her face and embarrassed herself.
Even at such a critical moment, Larry didn’t touch her. He was clearly not one who would try to take advantage of
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtothers.
Cecilia was overjoyed to see that.
She stood even closer to Larry.
Sensing the change in Cecilia's demeanor, Larry felt elated. She was so kind-hearted, understanding, and trusting
of others. She was innocent and naive, a perfect match for someone as honest and down-to-earth as him.
Pleased, he became all the more careful with his manners.
At the same time, he shared his work experience enthusiastically with her.
"Swipe this card to enter the office. The first level is the design department. My colleagues would have just arrived
and not yet busy with work. I can bring you around and introduce you to them."
The culture at the anime-related company was relaxed and liberal. It was worlds apart from the industries that the
Jarvises were familiar with.
In fact, the employees of the company had hair colors of the rainbow, very much like the comic characters that
Cecilia liked so much.
She was so happy, she ordered milk tea for everyone in the team.
"A beautiful woman who's also thoughtful is a rare gem," someone teased Larry. "Your girlfriend is better and way
more likable than your previous one!"
The colleague deliberately mentioned Lulu before Cecilia, in an attempt to sow discord between the two.
Larry wasn't good with words and looked anxiously at Cecilia, worried that she might be angry.
However, Cecilia didn't mind. Larry was no longer young, and it was perfectly reasonable for him to have an
exgirlfriend. Cecilia had an ex-boyfriend herself.
She found no point digging into the other party's past relationship. What mattered most was the present.
Larry’s face flushed with anxiety.
Cecilia lifted her arms, and wrapped them around Larry's. To others, they looked extremely intimate.
Cecilia looked like she was leaning on Larry. Though the angle made it seem like she was holding him, there was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmactually a significant gap between them.
Despite the distance, her sweet perfume kept wafting into Larry's nose. She was close enough for him to see her
skin up close. It was so fair and so smooth! He couldn't even see so much as a pore.
It seemed she had no makeup on; as her skin was naturally fair, dewy and perfect.
Larry smiled, joyful from the bottom of his heart. As long as he treated Cecilia well, he was confident that she would
be moved by him and eventually be willing to marry him.
What Cecilia did made everyone else in the office envious of Larry.
"Larry has quite some luck in the relationship department."
"Exactly! The moment Lulu left, Cecilia came. And both of them are so beautiful, more so than normal women."
Cecilia’s grace and poise wasn't something ordinary women had. She clearly came from a wealthy family of a high
status.
"Richburgh really is a great place with many choices for its people, not like us."
"We're not that bad," a colleague said, trying to smooth things over upon hearing everyone else's bitter tone. 'We're
designing this blind box with the aim of capturing the hearts of young girls everywhere."
He turned to look at Cecilia, and asked, "Isn't that right, Ms. Jarvis?"
