Chapter 33: Chapter 33 Light Pink Straps
Looking at the woman’s tearful appearance, Mason Bennett’s eyes deepened, and his expression revealed no emotion.
"You all can leave early today."
After saying that, he turned around and went into the office.
Maria Sinclair sat dazed in her chair, still not fully comprehending. After a while, she looked at Sophia Latham.
"What does Mr. Bennett mean? Is he going to fire me?"
Sophia Latham was also somewhat puzzled, but it was clear that he hadn’t told them to leave for good.
"Mr. Bennett just let us leave early."
Maria finally breathed a sigh of relief, quickly gathered her things, clocked out, and left.
She was really afraid that Mason might get angry and just fire her on the spot.
She didn’t want to leave. Apart from the salary at Nathan Bennett Group being incomparable to most companies, working under such a man was something many women dreamed of.
To be in this position, she wasn’t without ambition. Her attire made that quite evident.
However, for so many years, Mason has looked at her just as he would look at a man. She had hinted many times without getting a response but didn’t dare to be too obvious for fear of provoking him.
She could only think that, on the same floor, seeing each other day in and day out, he would someday notice her worth.
If she really got fired, she wouldn’t even have the chance to see him...
The entire top floor quickly emptied, leaving only Mason Bennett, Elliot Morris, and Bella Green in the lounge.
"Mr. Bennett, did you let the two of them leave?" Elliot Morris asked.
"Yes."
Watching the man diligently handle documents, Elliot hesitated, contemplating whether to report about Maria Sinclair.
Suddenly, Mason stopped his pen and looked up: "Do you want to talk about Maria Sinclair?"
Elliot was startled. Was he being that obvious!?
"Go on, remember to prepare lunch for him at noon." After speaking, he continued reviewing the files.
Elliot nodded, asked no further questions, and retreated.
In the afternoon, after having lunch, Bella Green curled up on the sofa with her laptop watching anime. As she watched, her little head tilted, and she fell asleep on the couch.
Though it was a sofa, the leather couch in the lounge was large and soft, just the right size for Bella’s small body, making her very comfortable.
When Mason completed his work and opened the door to the lounge, he saw the small figure sprawled on the couch, deeply asleep.
Upon closer inspection, he noticed that the little one hadn’t even taken off her shoes.
Mason, who always liked cleanliness, furrowed his brows for just a moment before smoothing them out, strangely unable to muster any anger.
He walked over and stood in front of the sofa. The laptop on the coffee table was still playing anime, surrounded by a pile of snacks and drinks, with chip crumbs all over the table.
Mason had a bit of a headache—this little one had too many bad habits.
He glanced at the small figure sleeping without any grace, wanting to wake her up. Just as he was about to speak, he stopped.
The dim, yellow glow of the sunset streamed through the glass, illuminating the boy’s pale cheek with a gentle and warm light, causing Mason to momentarily lose himself.
He then realized that this little one had astonishingly good skin. Despite being young, it was rare for a boy to have such fine skin.
Especially the contour of his cheek, unlike other boys’ sharp and rugged lines, it resembled more of an oval face commonly seen in girls.
In the sunlight, one could see the fine fluff on the delicately smooth, pale pink skin, like freshly picked, juicy, delectable peaches.
Suddenly, Mason’s gaze fell on Bella Green’s collar, slightly pulled open due to her sleeping posture, and he was slightly taken aback—was that a pink strap on her slender shoulder?
