Chapter 21 Going Home for Dinner
“Suzanne, you haven’t said why you’re here so late.” Nancy pulled a chair over and sat down beside her. Nancy inquired, “You’ve never been late.”
“I had no choice. I stayed up all night until three or four o’clock this morning,” Suzanne pretended to have no other choice and sighed, “I forgot to set the alarm clock, so I was late. Alas, the attendance bonus of 1, 000 dollars is going to leave me again.”
Nancy giggled, patted her, and said with some dissatisfaction, “You get paid well, so why do you still care about that small bonus? It’s more like a small employee like me to care about it, isn’t it?”
Suzanne smiled, “No one would complain about having too much money.”
“Do you want to go to the concert tonight?” Nancy said. She took out two tickets from nowhere and waved them in front of Suzanne with a sneaky smile, “I heard that the commander named Fick or something is your idol!”
“His name is Bryce Fickstowe,” Suzanne added the name of the commander for her, and then she reached out and took the tickets in Nancy’s hand. Then Suzanne’s eyes lit up.
It was the chief seat. What a temptation!
“It took me a lot of effort to win them from Charlie Buckley,” Nancy said and pushed Suzanne’s arm. “Are you coming or not? It’s my first time going to such a concert. I also want to have this experience.”
Suzanne pulled a wry face. What kind of experience was this? Nancy had always loved pop music. It was predictable that she would leave her seat after only a few minutes of the classical concert.
“You’d better not waste this ticket.” Charlie from another department came near them. After hearing Nancy’s words, he shook his head, “People like you will not like this kind of concert.”
“Do you want to die?” Nancy said grimly. She turned her chair around and stepped hard on Charlie’s shoe.
“Holy shit!” Charlie was in so much pain that he gasped. He was just telling the truth. How could she attack him? If it weren’t for him, this girl wouldn’t have been able to get those two tickets!
“Charlie is right.” Suzanne suppressed the urge to laugh and said gently, “You don’t like this kind of concert. Besides, I have something to do tonight and may not be able to go. Maybe you can sell the tickets to someone else and you can get some money.”
“Yes, it’s right!” Charlie nodded, “Or I can sell them for you. I don’t need you to pay me, just treat me to a few crabs.”
“Shameless. I won these tickets from you!” Nancy glared at him and forced the two tickets into Suzanne’s hands, “Forget it, I’m not going to experience it anymore. I’d better go home after work to watch Korean dramas!”Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Are you sure not selling it?” Charlie looked at the two tickets in Suzanne’s hand and felt a little distressed. He won these two tickets from other people. He originally thought that he could sell them for a high price, but he didn’t expect that he would lose the tickets to Nancy for betting with her.
“Don’t think about it!” Nancy threatened Suzanne with a stern face, “Suzanne, you can’t sell the tickets too. You can go if you are free, but if you can’t make it, just leave the tickets alone!”
“There’s no need to waste these two tickets, right?” Suzanne felt that it was a little funny.
If the fans who didn’t get tickets knew Nancy gambled with such expensive tickets to the concert with Charlie, they would be furious.
Later, Suzanne accepted the two tickets and casually put them in her bag.
After lunch, Suzanne took a small nap. She didn’t have much to do in the afternoon and prepared all the materials she needed in advance. At around three o’clock, she packed up and left.
Suzanne took a taxi to the underground parking lot of KSP and drove her red Beetle away. She was ready to drive home, but on the way home, she recalled the instructions of Afra, so she turned around unwillingly and drove to Edwiin’s company.
She hadn’t been to Edwiin’s company many times, only two or three times in total.
