Chapter 182
Darcy pretended to be nervous, and she asked, "Alena, I'm embarrassed. I don't know why he suddenly did this kind of thing. He didn't cause you trouble, right?"
Darcy had been her good friend for many years, and Alena was not harsh. She twitched her lips and said, "It's okay, just explain to him clearly the situation so that he won't come near me again in the future."
"Don't worry about this. I have already explained to him, and Kevin will never harass you again!" Darcy promised again and again, and then she suddenly asked, "Mr. Gray didn't know about this, right? Otherwise, I'm afraid that this will cause you trouble."
Alena sighed dejectedly. "He already knows it. Waylon saw Kevin yesterday!"
"What should I do?" Darcy exclaimed in a deliberately flustered voice. The truth was she knew it a long time ago. The reason why she made this call was just to inquire about the relationship between Alena and Waylon. She asked, "Did the two of you quarrel? Did Waylon say anything?"
Alena pursed her lips. She stood up and walked towards the secluded pantry.
"Don't you know him? He wouldn't give me a chance to explain it at all. He just treated me indiscriminately."
Darcy immediately asked, "What did he do with you?"
She couldn't say what happened to them, so Alena changed the subject. "It's nothing. It's just another quarrel."
The quarrel was expected, but after what happened, didn't Waylon file for a divorce?
She said unwillingly, "Is it just another fight? Is there anything else? Alena, don't hide it from me!"
Alena thought Darcy was genuinely concerned for her, so her depressed mood improved a little bit. "It's just a quarrel. Don't worry!"
"That's good." Darcy barely squeezed out a smile and continued to play the role of a good friend. "Don't worry, no matter what happens, I will stand by your side."
"Well, thank you, Darcy," Alena said with a smile.
At this time, someone walked into the pantry. Alena did not want anyone to hear her conversation with her friend, so she tried to end the call. inconvenient to say anything. "Let's end this call first. I need to go to work."
"Well, go." After she hung up the phone, Darcy looked at herself in the mirror.
It was just a quarrel, and divorce has not yet been filed.
She didn't know if Waylon was just a very patient person or not doing enough!
No, it must be that she hadn't done enough.
If she did better, perhaps Waylon and Alena would have divorced each other a long time ago.
She would work harder, be more attentive, and make them file a divorce sooner!
Only in this way would Waylon look at her.
Someone came out of the bathroom, and Darcy adjusted the expression on her face. She returned to her everyday look.
Darcy took the lipstick from her bag and carefully touched up her makeup before she went out.
Even if there were only a handful of opportunities to meet Waylon, she still had to maintain her perfect self at all times!
Simultaneously, Christiano's decision was also announced within the company. Alena was selected as the chief designer of a special souvenir project in cooperation with Eton.
Alena knew that many people in the company were not convinced.
Therefore, she took this project very seriously. Although her mood was not very good, she controlled her emotion.
The designers from the Eton Group were senior figures in the industry, and they were more sophisticated and mature than Alena in dealing with problems. After their communication, they reached a preliminary consensus.
Alena began to carefully compose the picture according to the other party's design concept and then merged it with her ideas.
It was true that you were working hard, time would fly very quickly.
When she came back to her senses, there was no one left in the company except her.
She looked down at her watch. It was almost seven o'clock. If under normal circumstances, Waylon had already returned to Gray's villa.
Where would she go?
This city was so big, but it seemed that there was no place for her in it.
She didn't want to go back at all now. She was afraid that if she went back, Waylon would be as unreasonable as yesterday.
At the same time, she was also afraid that he would ignore her entirely because of this.
After she struggled to decide for a while, Alena chose to go home.
She stopped a taxi casually, and after Alena said the villa's address, she leaned back on her chair and closed her eyes.
At this moment, her cell phone suddenly rang. She tiredly answered the phone call, but she heard a harsh scream from the other end line. "Alena!"
It was Darcy's voice!
Her voice was anxious and startled. It was as if calling Darcy was in a dangerous situation.
Alena immediately regained her wits, her brows furrowed slightly. "Darcy? What's wrong with you?"
There was a long silence on the other end of the line, followed by a violent gasp. She then heard Darcy's horrified cry, "Don't come here!"
"Darcy!" Alena sat up straight. She could not figure out the situation on the other side, but she felt that the problem seemed urgent. "What's wrong with you? Speak quickly!"
However, there was still no answer on the other end of the line. She only heard the sound of high heels as it stepped on the floor with a crisp sound.
Alena became more and more nervous, and her hands clenched slightly. "Darcy, what's the matter with you? Hurry up and speak!"
The driver who was driving seemed to have noticed something wrong, and he gave her a strange look in the rearview mirror.
Alena ignored the driver. "Darcy! Where are you? What happened?"
There was silence for a few more seconds, and then Darcy's heavy gasping voice came. "Alena, I was being followed!"
"What!" When she realized the danger of the matter, Alena hurriedly said, "Darcy, what's the matter with you? Where are you? What happened?"
But this time, there was no response on the other end of the line for a long time, and the phone was suddenly cut off after a burst of noise.
"Darcy!" Alena frowned, and she looked at her phone without a word for a long time.
The driver looked at her from the rearview mirror and said. "Miss, is there any trouble with your friend?"
"Yes."
"It's just that I've heard a lot of things like this recently. Hooligans follow young girls-" The driver didn't finish his words.
Alena hurriedly called Darcy's number back, but when she called again, it was turned off.
She was nervous for her friend
Alena wanted to call the police, but Darcy had been missing for less than 24 hours, and the police simply wouldn't care!
She was feeling uneasy back to Gray's villa. Alena didn't even notice that Waylon was not in the living room, and she went back to the bedroom unconsciously, holding her mobile phone in a daze.
