The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1211

'Hmph! Does he think he can treat his employee like this just because he's the vice president of the company? It's not like he's the only vice president in the world. I should ask Marcus to quit and go work for Uncle Jeremy!' thought Annie.

Aaron must have guessed what she was thinking of because his smile deepened. "Annie, please step into my office for a moment."

Annie was a little taken aback. 'This is weird. Did I hear wrong? Why would he ask me to go into his office?'

Annie never once turned behind to look at him as she did not want to see him. Without even needing to think twice, she rejected his invitation. "Mister Aaron, I don't work for you anymore. I don't think it's appropriate for me to go into your office."

"Have you forgotten you haven't gone through the formal resignation procedures? So technically, you're still an employee here. Now would you step into my office?" he asked sternly.

"No! I won't. I told you I've quit!"

Aaron walked around her so that they would face each other. He leaned down a little and looked into her eyes. "Be a good girl and come into my office. I want to talk to you about your resignation and have you sign some papers. That way, it'll be easier to look for a new job."

'Good girl'. That sounded too flirtatious. That nickname made it sound like they were dating!

As her boyfriend, Marcus was displeased by Aaron's tone, even if he was his boss.

Annie was quite angry as well, but she feared that if she turned Aaron down again, he would say something even worse.

"Marcus, wait for me while I hand in my resignation. We'll go through lunch after that," said Annie.

Aaron narrowed his eyes. "Then does that mean you were thinking of marrying me when you were courting me?"

Annie was a little taken aback by the question. She started blushing madly and said, "I don't want to admit it, but yes. I wanted to marry you then, but now? I see that you're not even interested in dating a girl who takes relationships seriously like me! So don't worry, I won't ever bother you anymore."

Annie kept her eyes off him the whole time she was speaking. It was obvious she was deliberately avoiding looking at him, which meant still cared very much about him.

Aaron narrowed his eyes. "Then what if I say I want to have a serious relationship with you now?"

Annie's heart skipped a beat. 'What… What did he just say?'
