Chapter 38
I like You
Sonia pushed her hair behind her ear to show off her alluring face and then asked again,
"Director, are you here to get something?" After all, this was a unisex mall. They could get all genders of high quality clothes here.
Jenna immediately saw what Sonia was trying to do. She was already getting a headache thinking of how she was going to settle Rose.
If Sonia can really seduce Matt then she won't have to worry.
So she echoed Sonia, "That's right director. Are you here for something?"
"No, I'm here for someone" he said. Immediately he said that, Rose felt a burning gaze on herself. She rasied her eyes up and the person that she saw was Matt.
Why.. why...is he looking at her like that? Rose had thought that he would at least pretend that he did not know her when the people from the company were here but it seems that he did not have the intention to do that at all.
It seemed as if he wanted to let everyone know that the both of them know each other
"Ah.... you are here for someone?" Sonia, who has been trying to get his attention faltered. He did not say anything but his gaze was clear enough.
He is here for Rose? Is that why he is looking at her like that?
Ha! These people keep pretending as if they won't do anything but they are actually the worst. She is seducing him right in front of her!
Sonia has forgotten that she was trying to do the same thing but he didn't give her the attention she wanted.....
"You are really here for someone?" Jenna asked. She too had seen the way that he was looking at Rose and she was burning with anger too. Scarlett and Rose, the both of them really don't want to leave a way out for her right? If they keep doing this then she won't be the one to blame!
"Yes,I was passing by and then I was someone inside...I came in for her..." Matt said, curling up his lips into a smile.
Sonia and Jenna were about to burst from anger seeing him smile like that to Rose but only Rose herself knew what was behind that smile.
This man is definitely teasing her on purpose and acting like a rouge right now! What does he think that he is doing?
How is she supposed to act when he is teasing her with that smile of his?
Rose really wanted to cry. She could see how Sonia and Jenna were looking at her with so much hate like she owned them a huge amount of money and refused to pay. What the hell is this?
It's bad enough that they are rivals and she has to waste her time dealing with them but is Sonia going to treat her as a love rival now?
Sonia cletched her fists tightly behind her. Even though she did not know Matt well and it could not be said that she really had feelings for him, she knew that getting to know him would definitely help her career.
How can Rose just take it away from her like this?
She thought that she would be able to stop Rose from completely destroying her with the evidence of the things that she has done but it seems like she was thinking too much! This woman definitely won't let her off easy!
"Director.... you've been looking at Rose since you came in and didn't even spare us a glance.. could it be that she is the person you came here for?" Sonia asked in a coy voice.
She thought that Matt won't dare to say that he really came here for Rose. After all, a relationship between a PR director and a manager was definitely going to shock the media and make waves. It might even affect Scarlett.
Coupled with her innocent coy act, she thought that Matt won't completely disregard her for sure!
But, she really wasn't expecting what he said next,
It was a really simple answer.
"Yes".
Rose felt a bomb go off in her head when she heard that. can't this person be a little less high profile! What is he trying to do? Is he trying to make these women drown her in thier envy and hate?
Sob sob...it seems that she is going to have a hard time from now on. This damned person! Doesn't he care at all?!
How he just admit it like that? Doesn't he know that if he admitted to having a relationship with her it was going to raise a lot of discussions and suspicions? One of the reasons Rose didn't become an actress was because she didn't like being in the spotlight. She would rather work behind the scenes.
And by the way, there was definitely no relationship between the both of them at all! This person is just making it easier for people to misunderstand!
"Ah yes?" Sonia was even more angry when she heard Matt admit it with a single word. But she was still acting as if she did not know and asked again. It seemed that she would not stop until she shoots herself in the foot.
"Yes. I'm here for Rose!"
Even though he already admitted it, saying a simple yes and calling her name outright was a different thing altogether.
For a few seconds, there was an awkward silence in the air.
Rose was really dumbfounded. Does this person not know what he is doing? He is basically admitting to a relationship that doesn't exist at all!
Isn't he afraid of tht backlash at all?!
As far as she knew, Matt has never been an impulsive person. Why is he acting like this right now? What is he trying to do?
Sonia held back all the anger and hate inside her that were threatening to erupt and she said, "You are here for Rose? Do the both of you know each other?"
"......."
Even Jenna wanted to deny that she knew such a person. Excuse me but is that a question that you should be asking right now? If he doesn't know her then why did he admit that he came in here for her? Can you even hear yourself? What do you think that you are doing right now?
Jenna was completely speechless. How did she even get this far with such a low IQ?
Matt smiled. It seemed that he was in a good mood. Even though he knew what she was doing, he didn't try to expose Sonia. Instead, he was embarrassing her by playing along with her and pretending to be dumb.
"Of course I know her. The both of us are actually quite close" he said, his ever charming smile on his face.
Rose "......?????!!!!"
Big ancestor can you please not do this to me? How am I supposed to survive if you throw me to the waves like this?
How can the both of them be considered close? They were mainly acquaintances at most! They weren't even at the level of friends yet! He just helped her out once.
Even though she was really greatful to him for that, the both of them have not met each other since it happened.
Rose could feel the burning gaze of two bitter women on her.
She felt that she had to settle this by herself or they were going to be rumours spreading about her immediately the both of them left here.
Rose cleared her throat. "Hmm...the both of you should not misunderstand please. We know each other from working in the same company and we met outside a few days ago. Director Matt helped me with something then. We aren't close. We aren't close at all..." Rose said waving her hands to deny everything that has been pinned on her.
Sonia's eyes lit up when she heard that but Jenna's eyes darkened at the same time.
Sonia thought that since Rose already said that the both of them did not have anything to do with each other then she would be able to get a chance to work on him but Jenna did not think so.
It would have been alright if Rose did not try to explain but since she explained it meant that there was something going on here.
Rose did not need to consider thier feelings at all. In fact she was really rude to them a few minutes ago. If she had not explained then Jenn's would have thought that there was maybe nothing going on between them. But immediately she explained, Jenna felt something was wrong.
Her eyes landed on the two people who were flirting with each other with thier eyes in front of her.
Matt was looking at Rose with an indulging smile and Rose was trying every which way to avoid his gaze. There was no way that no one would tell her that nothing was going on between the both of them.
Ha! Immediately Scarlett married Ryder Rose rushed to seduce Matt, the both of them...do they want to manipulate the entire company? Do they think that it's going to be easy?
A relationship between Matt and Rose will definitely get people talking.....
Rose saw that Jenna did not believe her at all and she rushed to explain herself immediately.
"Don't get me wrong. There really is nothing going on between us. We just me once....it's true..." Rose said. She really wanted to cry. What kind of rumours is Jenna going to spread about her once she leaves this place?
Matt spoke up again. "We are not close? But you clung onto me that day and refused to let go at all...how can you cling onto someone that you are not close to? Rose...you really can't lie like this" Matt said.
Rose"......"!!!????" What the hell is the meaning of this?
She was really doubting if this person was here to help her. He just wanted her to die right? Leading people to misunderstand like this....
What...what cling on to him? That was because she was in a bit of situation if she did not do something like this she would definitely be in a lot of trouble. He saw that too!
So why is he making things this difficult for her? What is he trying to do now?
Sonia felt a siren go off in her head when she heard that. She even clung onto him?
Sonia turned her gaze to Rose. There was a ferocious glare of hate in her eyes when she looked at her.
After calling her a slut, it turns out that she is this type of person herself.
She even seduced Matt , climbing on to him shamelessly! How can someone like her scold her for sleeping around?
Isn't she afraid of being hit by lightning because of her double standards?
Rose knew that there was no way she could save this situation now. She was done for! Completely done for!
She rasied her eyes and glared at Matt. What does this person think that he is doing right now?
