Jealous?
Seeing Elvis smile triumphantly, Nola stuffed an apple into his mouth.
“I’m jealous. What’s wrong? Do you have a problem?”

Elvis ate the apple, feeling sweet. It was good to be jealous, and he had no problems at all. However, there were some things that he could make clear.
“I didn’t have any personal relationship with her. It’s the same now, nor will it ever be.”
Having heard him say that, Nola was no longer angry.
She knew very well that Elvis didn’t like fooling around. He was not a god and couldn’t control others‘ thoughts. What Nola cared about was Elvis‘ attitude.
“Deborah seemed to see I was in your car yesterday after work. But she’s unsure!”
Nola slowly talked about what had happened today. She felt more and more that she was guilty of going up for lunch secretly.
“Then… You can go to the staff restaurant with them from now on!” The food in the staff restaurant was alright, but Elvis seldom went there. Before, he was too busy for lunch and didn’t have meals on time. Naturally, he missed the meal time at the restaurant. He often asked the secretary to make an order or had coffee.
To take care of Nola, Elvis asked Alisa to prepare and deliver the food. After all, the home–cooked meals were tasty, and Nola liked them.
Since the problem arose so quickly, Elvis suddenly had a better idea.
“You asked me to go to the staff restaurant. Did I hear you right?”
Didn’t Elvis say before that at least Nola should be with him during mealtime? It had only been two days, and he had changed his mind so quickly.
“Are you unwilling?”
“No!” Nola was naturally happy. She really wanted to try whether the company’s food was good.
The rumor from the secretary’s office was serious, and no one dared to speak about it before seeing it. Deborah had doubts but never had a chance to confirm. Nola perfectly avoided it every time.
But something happened when Nola went to the restaurant for lunch with everyone openly, which made a lot of noise that day.
It wasn’t because Nola appeared, but Elvis, who had never appeared before, unexpectedly came to the staff restaurant.
When they saw Elvis and Damion appearing together in the staff restaurant, everyone was dumbfounded and couldn’t believe their eyes.
Biting her fork, Nola was about to eat barbecue pork ribs when she looked up and saw Elvis walking in, causing quite a commotion in the restaurant. At this time, Deborah, who was sitting beside Nola, suddenly stood up.
Elvis‘ sudden friendly action made the female employees overjoyed. They didn’t dare to take pictures. They were already happy to see such a handsome boss eating.

Chapter 91
At this moment, Nola finally understood why Elvis had asked her to eat at the staff restaurant.
He wanted to go with it and have lunch with Nola openly. Would he have a grievance about that?
While Nola was thinking. Elvis and Damion had already walked towards them. Deborah was so excited that her heart was in her throat. As expected, Elvis calmly sat across Nola at the same table.
Seeing the deep smile in Elvis‘ eyes, she murmured in her heart, ‘He already thought about it.”
However, there are four of them here. Everyone would think Elf came to have lunch with Deborah, right?
Thinking of it for granted, Nola felt at ease.
During the whole process, everyone remained silent. Deborah put down the bowls and forks and mustered the courage to say, “Mr. Grayson, how come you came to the staff restaurant today?”
Just a sudden thought and come by to see if the newcomer is used to it.”
Deborah was a smart woman. Seeing Elvis looking at Nola, she seemed to understand.
Deborah would not flatter herself and think that Elvis came to the staff restaurant for her. Obviously, he came because of Nola
Elvis had never taken the initiative to find Deborah for many years. How could he come here publicly because of her now?
The winter sun shone on Nola’s body, and Deborah narrowed her eyes slightly. The figure in Deborah’s mind and Nola’s figure completely overlapped.
Was that person… Nola?
What was so good about a newcomer?
Although Deborah was outstanding, she was not the best one. No matter what, she was much better than Nola. But Elvis never took her seriously.
Full of questions, Deborah wanted to have a good talk with Nola.
What was her relationship with Elvis?
Naturally, Deborah would not think Nola was Elvis‘ wife. In her perception, Elvis would not marry anyone except for Nancy. Even if there were something between Elvis and Nola, it would be something dirty.
Which woman wanted to hide? If Nola was transparent, why did she keep hiding?
If she were really Elvis‘ girlfriend, or even… his future wife, she wouldn’t just be an intern assistant on probation. Even it was Damion who gave a letter of recommendation.
Elvis could parachute Nola into the company and offer her a comfortable position. It would be easy, and there will be no trouble. If he told everyone in the company who Nola was, who would dare to embarrass her?
At first, Deborah thought that at most, Nola had a good relationship with Damion and indeed had skills and ideas, so she didn’t embarrass Nola.
Deborah thought that reasonably using one’s interpersonal relationship was an ability. And she wouldn’t give Nola a hard time within the acceptable range.
But now, the more she thought about it, the less sense it made.
If Nola and Elvis‘ relationship were really what she thought, it would make sense for her to be an intern assistant. Elvis would

not pamper a woman too much. At most, it was just out of curiosity.
However, Elvis, the person Deborah had always admired, now… had a relationship with Nola.
How could Deborah not mind?
He… definitely wouldn’t do that. If he did, it must be caused by Nola’s active temptation. Girls nowadays could do anything for something.
Deborah had seen too many people betraying themselves to get ahead.
Some people even did whatever it took to win a project.
Deborah absolutely couldn’t allow such a person to stay by her side!
Maybe Elvis didn’t like Nola. He let her stay in the hope that Nola would leave justifiably and break up with Elvis within three months.
Thinking of it that way, Deborah felt better.
Otherwise, why did Elvis pretend not to know Nola every time they met? It showed they didn’t get along.
Deborah didn’t know that Elvis had no choice. Nola asked him to do that. She didn’t want others to think she could be unscrupulous because of Elvis and just wanted to prove herself.
But it seemed that no matter what Nola did, others would not think she got everything alone.
