He Clings to Me Every Night-Chapter 281: : Bring a Dozen Beers

Translator: 549690339

Just off work, Abigail Anderson looks up to see Chief Jenkins standing at her side.

Taken aback for a moment, Abigail reflexively says: “Hello, Chief Jenkins!”

“Let’s go. I want to discuss something with you.”

Abigail gives Chief Jenkins a closer look.

But Chief Jenkins’ calm demeanor offers no window into her true emotions.

Grabbing her bag, Abigail follows Chief Jenkins out of the office.

Abigail also gets into Chief Chief Jenkins’s car and is taken to a newly opened barbecue restaurant.

Olivia Jenkins hands the menu to Abigail, “Try some Serene City barbecue, it’s quite tasty!”

Abigail tentatively asks, “Did you look at my resume?”

Olivia nods, her sharp eyes on Abigail, “As a boss, it’s routine to know your employees. Don’t be nervous, I won’t investigate or pry. The bag you’re carrying doesn’t suit your junior position, and your clothes show how luxurious your past life was.”

Abigail closes her eyes, offering no rebuttal.

Olivia continues, “How was your first day at work? How do you feel?”

Abigail flutters her eyelashes slightly, looks up, meets Chief Jenkins’ gaze, “It’s good, choosing cosmetics and skincare products is not difficult for me.”

“On this Saturday, COOKIE’s own team will begin live stream selling. You can learn something from watching them.”

“Thank you, Chief Jenkins!”

“Do you drink? Beer?”

Abigail pauses, looking at Chief Jenkins with a puzzled expression.

A few seconds later, Abigail nods.

Olivia laughs, seeming to bridge a distance, no longer the aloof female CEO, “Did I scare you? We could get a dozen canned beers, we should finish them, or simply take the leftovers home.”

Abigail smiles, “I didn’t know you were so bold, Chief Jenkins!”

“After work, we’re all ordinary people. It’s nice to relax, have a beer, chat casually. Regardless of our circumstances, we need some pleasure in life. We cannot short-change ourselves.”

Abigail looks surprised, she doesn’t expect to share the same philosophy in life

with Chief Jenkins.

Olivia opens a can of beer, hands it to Abigail first, then opens one for herself, “Cheers!”

Abigail responds, clinks their cans together, then takes a big gulp of beer.

The icy cold beer, feeling awesome when it goes down!

Having some beers, Olivia starts to chat, “I have a close classmate who doesn’t drink, so I rarely hang out with her. The first time I saw you, I inexplicably felt like we were old friends.”

After some hesitation, Abigail says, “You remind me of my sister, who also likes to keep her troubles to herself. But given your high position, maybe that’s the only option you have, after all, there are many things beyond your control.” Touched to the quick, a faint smile spreads across Olivia’s face.

She hasn’t misjudged Abigail – not just anyone would have such perception. She must have a story, “The things you’ve been through, they were complicated, weren’t they? Or you were tired of that kind of life and wanted to escape?”

Chief Jenkins is smart, with sharp eyes. Abigail admires her, “To Chief Jenkins, I toast you; may we always be happy!”

After the toast, Olivia takes a few gulps of beer.

Coolness runs from her mouth to her heart, feeling pretty good!

No matter the topic, Olivia and Abigail seem to hit it off incredibly well.

Olivia isn’t someone with an ulterior motive, someone who’d bully her at every turn, someone who’d want to harm her, someone who’d exploit her, someone who’d play her around… Drinking with Abigail allows Olivia to release some of her suppressed feelings..
