Chapter 155 Oblivious To Her Feelings

“Gary, if you wish to date, I—” Riley stammered, too embarrassed to complete her sentence. “I—”

Gary found her really strange. “What’s your problem? Are you feeling unwell? I can approve a one-day leave for you. Otherwise, I could ask Howard to take you to the hospital.”

Is he stupid? She stared resentfully at him and said, “You’re a blockhead!”

Having said that, she dashed out of the room right away. When she bumped into Xander, who was completely clueless as to what happened, she shoved him aside and made off without any explanation.

Gary was baffled. Seeing Xander still standing at the doorway, he raised his voice and said, “Why aren’t you entering if you’re here? Are you fond of eavesdropping now?”

Xander entered the room, shrugging his shoulders. He smiled. “Gary, it seems you’re having great luck with the ladies. Riley waited this long to confess to you. It’s not an easy feat.”

Gary glared at him. “Stop spouting nonsense,” he chided. “Riley only sees me as a senior. Don’t make up baseless rumors and spoil her reputation.”

Xander couldn’t help but feel sad for Riley.

Gary was undoubtedly oblivious when it came to relationship matters. Otherwise, why would a wealthy man in his thirties not have a single girlfriend? It wasn’t because he didn’t have charm but because of his insensitivity.

As long as men had some spare cash, their looks didn’t matter. The women would convince themselves to accept the man as long as they were being financially supported. They would then brag about how strong their love was. But in the end, they themselves wouldn’t know for sure whether they truly loved the man or their money.

“Gary, if Riley were to hear you say this, she’ll cry to her death.” Xander shook his head.

Gary scratched his head in confusion. “Why are you talking about Riley again? We are purely co-workers. She entered the company at eighteen years old and is considered the youngest in here. Everyone’s used to doting her. I, too, treat her like my biological sister.”

Xander pulled out a chair and took a seat. He asked, “Riley came all the way to your office. Are you telling me you really have no idea of her intentions?”

Gary still couldn’t catch the gist of it. “Does she have someone she likes?”
